US Blasts French Recognition of 'Palestinian State' While Hamas, PA Rejoice

NewsMax  

"Several countries, including Spain, Ireland, and Norway, announced their recognition last year."

"The U.S. sharply condemned the announcement by France's President Emmanuel Macron that he wants to recognize a Palestinian state in September, while several other countries, as well as Hamas, signaled their support.

"U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said his country "strongly rejects" Macron's plan.

" 'This reckless decision only serves Hamas propaganda and sets back peace. It is a slap in the face to the victims of October 7th," he wrote on X.

"U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee ridiculed the plan, noting on X that "Macron's unilateral 'declaration' of a 'Palestinian' state didn't say WHERE it would be. I can now exclusively disclose that France will offer the French Riviera & the new nation will be called 'Franc-en-Stine'."

"In another post, he wrote: "How clever! If Macron can just 'declare' the existence of a state perhaps the UK can 'declare' France a British colony!"

"France has mulled a public recognition of a Palestinian state for several months. According to reports in June, a diplomatic cable showed the U.S. opposes any unilateral recognition, threatening consequences as such a move would directly contradict U.S. foreign policy interests.

"The French AFP news agency said that 142 countries have now declared their recognition of a Palestinian state or intend to do so. Several countries, including Spain, Ireland, and Norway, announced their recognition last year.

"However, the U.S. and most major Western countries have not done so yet." . . . 

*Relations between Nazi Germany and the Arab world - Wikipedia  . . . "Hitler was transcribed as saying: "Had Charles Martel not been victorious at Poitiers […] then we should in all probability have been converted to Mohammedanism, that cult which glorifies the heroism and which opens up the seventh Heaven to the bold warrior alone. Then the Germanic races would have conquered the world."[27]

"This exchange occurred when Hitler received Saudi Arabian ruler Ibn Saud's special envoy, Khalid al-Hud.[28] Earlier in this meeting, Hitler claimed that one of the three reasons why Nazi Germany had some interest in the Arabs was:

"[…] because we were jointly fighting the Jews. This led him to discuss Palestine and the conditions there, and he then stated that he himself would not rest until the last Jew had left Germany. Khalid Al Hud observed that the Prophet Mohammed [...] had acted the same way. He had driven the Jews out of Arabia [...][28]" . . .

 Palestinians always have and look to be in the far future to kill every Jew in the world. TD

Congratulations Musk-Haters: You Are Killing The EV Market

  Issues & Insights  

"So take a long look in the mirror, you Musk-hating, climate alarmists. By attacking Tesla, you are just ruining your already useless reputations."


"You've heard it countless times. Climate change is the biggest threat to humanity since the dawn of man. Nothing else compares. Well, nothing except hatred of Elon Musk.
"The same people who want to ban gas-powered cars to “save the planet” decided, bizarrely, to attack Musk (for the unpardonable sin of trying to root out waste and fraud in the federal government) by targeting Tesla drivers.
"Well, it worked. Tesla sales are down. Tesla earnings are down.
"But those who are in the market for an EV didn’t rush to buy plug-ins made by other companies. The entire market is down.
"Business Insider reports that Tesla sales in California – a state that wants to ban the sale of gas-powered cars in less than a decade – dropped more than 20% in the second quarter compared with the previous year, despite the fact that overall new car sales in the state are up. It goes on to say:
"The California Dealers Association warned that Tesla’s woes were dragging the rest of the state’s EV market down. Zero-emission vehicles accounted for 18.2% of new cars sold in California in the second quarter of 2025, compared with 22% in 2024, the associat
ion’s data showed.”
"This isn’t confined to California.
"Carmakers sold 20,000 fewer EVs in the second quarter of this year than they did the year before, and fewer than were sold in the third quarter of 2023, according to data compiled by CarEdge. It says that EV market share is down year-over-year.
"Cox Automotive reports that year-over-year EV sales were down 3.5% in June.
"EnerWrap says that sales of battery-only cars (as opposed to plug-in hybrids that still use gasoline but are counted as EVs) “showed the slowest growth in 4.5 years.”
"The Energy Information Administration reports a sharp drop in the EV market, and that “the decrease in electric vehicle sales was driven by declining sales of battery electric models such as the Honda Prologue, Chevrolet Equinox, and Tesla Model Y.”
"So take a long look in the mirror, you Musk-hating, climate alarmists. By attacking Tesla, you are just ruining your already useless reputations."

Watch Fox News' Greg Gutfeld Obliterate His Co-Host Over This Take on the Russian Collusion Hoax

Townhall  

"GUTFELD: No, let me finish. They amplified a false conclusion that Trump colluded with Russia in 2016. We had to spend years dealing with that, and now, we're actually getting an investigation, and you're saying, No, you know what, you guys should just move on."

  

"I’m going to be nice to Jessica Tarlov in the sense that she’s too smart to peddle this talking point. She must know it’s brutally dishonest, but she said it yesterday and got her head bitten off by Greg Gutfeld. The two co-hosts on The Five got into it over the recent document dumps by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, which show that Barack Obama, John Brennan, James Comey, James Clapper, and others manufactured intelligence to promote a fake narrative about Russian collusion to destroy Donald Trump.

"Tarlov thought it was ridiculous that we’re talking about Hillary Clinton’s emails, along with the point that maybe it’s a distraction that Trump hasn’t released the Epstein files yet. It was at this moment that Gutfeld couldn’t take it. He expertly recounted why this is a story, and a national scandal—pointing to the Obama administration ordering a new report to counter the intelligence community’s assessment that Russia didn’t interfere in our elections in the manner that had the liberal pundit class foaming at the mouth.

"Gutfeld then said that this reaction from Tarlov and others is similar to what we had to endure with the Biden health story, where for years these same people claimed Joe Biden was mentally sound. Republicans can do multiple things at once; they’re more on top of the Epstein files than Democrats ever were over the past four years. Our good friends at RedState transcribed this epic smackdown: . . .

Why Democrats suddenly care about the Epstein issue  

. . ."With six months having passed since Trump’s inauguration, Democrats had to pull off a lot of legerdemain to make the previous four years disappear, given that they controlled all the levers of the Justice Department concerning this issue. Fortunately for them, the Trump team bungled the release of all the promised Epstein dirt." . . .

Socialism doesn’t work: City-Funded Grocery Store in Kansas City has Empty Shelves, Plagued by Crime

Legal Insurrection 

"At a community meeting last year, Pierson played videos of security incidents so graphic he gave a warning in advance — a naked woman parading through the store throwing bags of chips to the ground, another person urinating in the vestibule and a couple fornicating on the lawn of the library in broad daylight."


"New York City mayor frontrunner Zohran Mamdani wants to build a city-run grocery store.

"Kansas City, MO, built its own city-funded grocery store, KC Sun Fresh, in 2018, and it has failed.
"Community Builders of Kansas City, a nonprofit led by Emmet Pierson Jr., “leases the site from the city.”
"Empty shelves. Rotting food. Persistent crime.
"The $15 million idea is a bust. From KSHB
:
A rancid odor fills the market, with shoppers turned off by bare shelves and coolers, along with empty meat and deli departments.
Jannine Owens told KSHB 41’s Alyssa Jackson on Monday she’s been shopping at the store since it opened, but in recent weeks, she can’t leave with everything she needs.

Sorry, CNN, We're Not Going to Stop Talking About the Russian Collusion Hoax

 RedState  

"For a self-proclaimed journalist to respond this way isn't professional. And the funny thing is that taking this kind of stunning attitude only makes people look into it more." . . . 

"It's certainly been an interesting news week, with the bombshells the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has dropped about the Russia Collusion hoax. 

"Then, on Wednesday, the drama truly ramped up even more. As we reported, Gabbard said that they'd referred the matter to the DOJ.

"This may be one of the biggest political scandals ever. It's a huge story. 

"But let's listen in on what CNN, an outlet that pushed the propaganda leaks, has to say about the issue and its newsworthiness. Jeff Zeleny, their National Affairs correspondent, believes we in the media should just all be quiet."

"Listen to this stunner from Zeleny. 

This is hardly information that we should even be repeating. Never mind that it is some, some years after the fact, eight years more than that after the fact, but also just to look at the source. But look, this is the, what this White House wants to talk about. And I'm not sure we should spend that much more time on it.

"This explains in part why the story has taken so long to come to light, when the media has this attitude. Oh, and I love how he's talking here, with Gabbard in the background, but they don't have the sound on, so you can't hear what she's saying. He's telegraphing, "Let's move on - who cares what's being alleged, what the documents or the whistleblowers might say?"

"And they wonder why the American people don't trust them. 

"Zeleny actually claimed that the Russia Collusion document dump was part of Trump's "retribution campaign," that it was a distraction from Jeffrey Epstein, and that it was a "conspiracy theory." This was the same kind of nonsense they pushed about the Hunter Biden laptop." . . .

Stephen Colbert’s Costly Mistake; Johnny Carson he is not.

 Jeffrey Lord 

 "Late-night audiences are not climbing into bed after a hard day of work to be lectured on the politics of the moment. They want to chill. To laugh."


"More than $40 million.

That’s the pricy sum the Stephen Colbert–hosted Late Show was losing every year for CBS, according to news reports.

One would think that, this being the case, Colbert and his bosses would have long ago taken a serious look at what wasn’t working and changed course. Simply put: Fix the problem!

"The problem, of course, was something Colbert was unwilling to fix.

"That problem? His obsession with President Donald Trump.

"One of the reasons for the continual success for the man known back in the day as “The King of Late Night” — that would be NBC’s Johnny Carson — was that he made sure that when he or his guests went after the president of the moment, it was always done for laughs. 

"Take a look here from this clip now on YouTube. Carson’s guest of the moment was the comedian/impressionist Rich Little — and, as you can see, Little’s Nixon routine was not some serious lecture on Nixon’s politics and issues of the day. To the contrary, Little did his best Nixon imitation, exaggerating Nixon’s mannerisms to the max and leaving both his audience and Carson in stitches. 

"Alas, Colbert is utterly unwilling or unable to go down the road of making humor out of a president. What Colbert is about is thinly veiled humor that is so obviously a stern, humorless lesson promoting far-left politics. And, in doing so, he usually includes a stern lecture about Trump. Or addresses the president directly, as just in the last few days when  Colbert looked into the camera and told Trump…

"Hmmm. This being a family publication, I will not print what he said. A link to a Fox News headline will suffice to get the point across of the kind of anti-Trump behavior Colbert thinks acceptable.

"Bear in mind that this is late-night TV. Americans are either getting ready to head to bed or already tucked in, slowly starting to doze off to dreamland. The last thing they want after a long day of work and kids is some humorless alleged comedian acting like a jack lecturing them on politics." . . .

Colbert just could never come up to Johnny Carson's level:

Johnny Carson as Reagan, a "Who's On First" spoof   "Johnny Carson is posing as Ronald Reagan preparing himself for a press conference. Originally aired in 1982, it is a spoof on the famous Abbott & Costello "Who's On First" routine. Except this time it is Hu (premier of China), Watt (Sec of Interior, James Watt), Where, Y (YMCA), and Yassir (Arafat). Fred Holliday (born Fred Grossinger) is the actor playing Reagan's Chief of Staff."

Firing Colbert has to be the end of America.

Not "Democratic", but now "Democrat"

 We are no longer the knights who say "Democratic"

Rich Terrell

What’s in an adjective? ‘Democrat Party’ label on the rise   . . . "The shared grammatical construction — incorrect use of the noun “Democrat” as an adjective — was far from the most shocking thing about the two men’s statements. But it identified them as members of the same tribe, conservatives seeking to define the opposition through demeaning language.

"Amid bipartisan calls to dial back extreme partisanship following the insurrection, the intentional misuse of “Democrat” as an adjective remains in nearly universal use among Republicans. Propelled by conservative media, it also has caught on with far-right elements that were energized by the Trump presidency.

"Academics and partisans disagree on the significance of the word play. Is it a harmless political tactic intended to annoy Republicans’ opponents, or a maliciously subtle vilification of one of America’s two major political parties that further divides the nation?

"Thomas Patterson, a political communication professor at Harvard’s Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy, said using “Democrat” as an adjective delivers a “little twist” of the knife with each usage because it irritates Democrats, but sees it as little more than that." . . .

Media's never-ending Trumpgates

 Don Surber    

"What is it this time? Qatargate? Paradegate? Not Epstein AGAIN!"




"So what was the media-made scandal this week? Not Epstein again. Sheesh, the dude died six years ago. They are really desperate.
"BORING!
"But if the media insists on talking about Epstein, let’s see them report on the letter Dom Lucre posted on Twitter. He said, “On July 6, 2007, a 23-page letter from Jeffrey Epstein's lawyers Alan Dershowitz and Gerald Lefcourt stated that Epstein was Co-founder of the Clinton Global Initiative which became the Clinton Foundation.
" 'The letter was tied to a successful plea deal before Epstein was charged, this directly ties Hillary and Bill Clinton to Epstein’s network.”
"Don’t expect George Stephanopoulos to break the story.
"Many things have changed from the first Trump presidency in his second presidency. Congress is cooperating. His Cabinet is capable and loyal. The border is closed. DEI is dead. Spending is being cut by a trillion-plus dollars over the next 10 years.
"But the media has not changed. It keeps trying to bring him with a new complaint just about every week.". . . 

. . ."Then there was the scandal manufactured by Jonathan Karl of Disney’s ABC. Karl has written 3 anti-Trump books while being a totally objective reporter.
"On May 11, Karl reported, “In what may be the most valuable gift ever extended to the United States from a foreign government, the Trump administration is preparing to accept a super luxury Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from the royal family of Qatar—a gift that is to be available for use by President Donald Trump as the new Air Force One until shortly before he leaves office, at which time ownership of the plane will be transferred to the Trump presidential library foundation, sources familiar with the proposed arrangement told ABC News.”
"The headline called the plane a Palace in the Sky.

Wrong.

The gift was to the Air Force.

The plane will be stripped down and rebuilt.

The plane will be used by the next president and likely several more presidents after that as an Air Force One plane.
