. . ."From the archives:As 9/11 attacks unfolded, no one knew if hijackers were on board

"Sept. 11, 2001, set the stage for a new “global war on terror” launched by former U.S. President George W. Bush. The United States military and its allies set out to eliminate al-Qaida terrorist network harbored by the Taliban in Afghanistan in a costly war that ended last year with the United States withdrawing its troops and the Taliban taking control of the county. ". . .

9/11 'miracle' babies, now turning 21, were lifesavers for families (nypost.com)


. . ."These “miracle” babies are all grown up — turning 21 and reflecting on their solemn birthday, Sept. 11, 2001, when they saved their dads’ lives.

"The babies were busy being born that tragic morning, ensuring that their fathers would not be in their downtown offices at the heart of disaster.

"Instead of crossing the bridge connecting the World Trade Center to his CIBC Oppenheimer office at the World Financial Center, Steve Condos was at NYU Medical Center with his wife, Marika, who went into labor three weeks early. Their son, Reggi, was born at 9:23 a.m. — 36 minutes before the first tower collapsed.". . .

I'm sure those in the Middle East observe this day in their own way

On Biden

 


Americans are fed up with Biden and a majority want him impeached.   

. . ."However, if Republicans do become the majority and they do have even a little burning ember in their collective bellies, there are a lot of grounds for impeaching Biden. A year ago, Reps Bob Gibbs (Ohio), Andy Biggs (Arizona), Brian Babin (Texas), and Randy Weber (Texas) filed articles of impeachment. They based the articles on Biden’s lawless conduct on our southern border and his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, which involved abandoning American citizens and billions of dollars in weapons and equipment. Ted Cruz would add to the list Biden’s lawless vaccine mandates. Our own Ed Brodow also adds there’s the evidence from Hunter Biden’s laptop showing decades of unlawful influence peddling, the destruction of America’s energy sector, Biden’s illegal racial discrimination, and his using the DOJ and FBI to attack his political opponents.

"In other words, if Republicans can summon even a modicum of courage, a majority (yes, a small one, but still a majority) of the American people will be behind them if they impeach Biden. It’s true, of course, that Kamala will be as bad as Biden himself. Still, it is important for the rule of law to call Joe Biden to account for his many damaging, illegal, unconstitutional, and even treasonous actions against America and her people."

Fiery But Mostly Peaceful ‘Dark Brandon’ › American Greatness  . . ." To his credit, Biden wasn’t characterizing all Republicans as traitors. Just those who might dare to put up any kind of meaningful resistance to himself and his political party. So-called “mainstream” Republicans, by whom Biden means liberal Republicans who do what Democrats tell them to do, are fine. 

"No American president has ever spoken in such an openly hostile way about his fellow citizens. But Biden’s divisive language is music to leftist ears. In Biden, they have found an authoritarian who is willing to crush people who disagree with them, or as they put it, “fascists.' ” . . .

9/11: What Do Americans Actually Know About This Terrible Day?



"Twenty-one years on, and where are we? What do our children know about 9/11 and the Islamic terrorists who attacked our country in the worst attack on our homeland in American history? In a word, nothing. Or worse.

"Why did the attackers do this? Discussing their motive today, twenty-one years later, is tantamount to a hate crime. The jihadis’ last letters have all but been scrubbed from the public record.

"Read the “martyrdom” letters left by the Muslim terrorists. Allah is mentioned over ninety times. “Remind your brothers that this act is for Almighty Allah,” done for the cause of advancing Islam.

"Before the attack, one of the Muslim terrorists who struck our nation on September 11, 2001 wrote: “When the confrontation begins, strike like champions who do not want to go back to this world. Shout, ‘Allahu Akbar,’ because this strikes fear in the hearts of the non-believers. Allah said: ‘Strike above the neck, and strike at all of their extremities.’”

"But how many American schoolchildren know or understand that the attackers were Islamic jihad terrorists? How many know what a jihad is, or what the objective of the 9/11 attacks was?". . .

Thoroughly Thumped Trump Must Pass The Torch To A New MAGA Champion

  Issues & Insights  "The invasion of Mar-a-Lago takes the endless, all-out war on Donald Trump to a new and uncharted level.

"As if we didn’t know already upon learning that one of its many arms had spied on the White House during The Donald’s tenure, it’s now clear that the illegitimate regime occupying 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and the commanding heights of law enforcement, the military, Big Business and the culture will stop at nothing to maintain its hold on power.

"And equally evident that the former president and his cohort cannot make its members (except RINO primary losers) pay any political or other price for their brazen behavior.

"The painful truth: for all his mean tweets, tough talk and base-building prowess, for six years Trump and his troops have brought broadaxes to a flamethrower fight against a scorched-earth opposition.

"A new poll exposes America’s disgust with Biden’s recent rhetoric – will it hurt Democrats this fall?". . .

“I don’t understand how Joe Biden is so angry when his party controls the House, the Senate and the White House,” Richard Grenell, acting director of National Intelligence during the Trump administration, told Yahoo News on Friday. “He should be telling America how great the country is under his leadership and instead he’s attacking Republicans.”

Oz slams Fetterman for 'head fake' debate offer

 Oz slams Fetterman for 'head fake' debate offer | Washington Examiner  . .  ."Following weeks of intensifying pressure on Fetterman to debate Oz, the lieutenant governor finally relented this week and loosely committed to a showdown with the celebrity doctor despite his stroke-induced ailments. Oz had ramped up pressure on Fetterman to appear opposite him in a public forum, but he was left despondent with the debate offer.

" 'There is no John Fetterman debate offer. Debates have to be held at a specific time, a specific place. They have to have a host; you got to have a TV station. We don't have any of these details," Oz countered during an interview with Fox News's Harris Faulkner on Friday. "He just dropped his head fake idea that 'yeah, of course I'll do a debate.'"

"Oz and Fetterman are embroiled in one of the hottest Senate races in the country that could determine the balance of power in the evenly split upper chamber. Days before Fetterman clinched the Democratic nod for outgoing Sen. Pat Toomey's (R) Senate seat, the lieutenant governor suffered a stroke that nearly killed him.

"Fetterman stayed out of the political spotlight until August as he recovered. While he has insisted his "health now is robust," he has conceded that he "might miss a word every now and then or I might mush two words together," which has made his allies uneasy about a debate.". . .

Young Fetterman - PatriotRetort.com  . . ."On Twitter, where he does 99% of his campaigning, John Fetterman has been relentlessly mocking and attacking Dr. Oz for months.

He mocks Dr. Oz for coming from New Jersey, for how many homes he owns, and for daring to describe a vegetable platter as “crudités.”

"Even during his rare campaign events, the Fetterman campaign can’t get enough of mocking his Republican challenger. Over the weekend, Fetterman campaign staffers even dressed up in broccoli costumes. Because when your entire campaign consists of mocking “crudités,” you put your dignity aside and get up like a vegetable.

"Fetterman plays the tough guy on Twitter. But the moment the Oz campaign hits back, he simpers like a thin-skinned toddler and whines, “No FAIR!!!!!” . . .

Queen Elizabeth Is Being Attacked Because She Lived In A Better Time

 Tucker Carlson: Queen Elizabeth Is Being Attacked Because She Lived In A Better Time, Africa Slumped After British Empire; RealClearPolitics

. . ."When the U.S. government withdrew from Afghanistan after 20 years, we left behind airstrips, shipping containers and guns. When the British pulled out of India, they left behind an entire civilization, a language, a legal system, schools, churches and public buildings, all of which are still in use today. Here's the train station the English built in Bombay, for example. There's nothing like that in Washington, DC right now, much less in Kabul or Baghdad. Today, India is far more powerful than the UK, the nation that once ruled it and yet, after 75 years of independence, has that country produced a single building as beautiful as the Bombay train station that the British colonialists built? No, sadly, it has not. Not one.

"So, despite what they may be claiming on Twitter tonight, the British Empire was more than just genocide. In fact, the British did not commit genocide, except arguably against the Dutch during the Boer War. The British did give the world the Magna Carta and habeas corpus and free speech. They helped end the transatlantic slave trade, as well as the ritual murder of widows in India. The British Empire spread Protestant Christianity to the entire world. It published some of the greatest literature ever written and produced the finest manufactured goods ever made anywhere at any time, including now.". . .

Online death threats against Biden after speech [Video] (aol.com) "President Biden’s fiery speech in Philadelphia denouncing former President Donald Trump and what he described as “extreme MAGA ideology” has sparked online calls for violence, including death threats against the president, according to documents obtained by Yahoo News.

"Biden’s remarks also prompted immediate concerns from senior counterterrorism officials who said they fear that calling Trump supporters extremists would be viewed as a call to arms and would only inflame an already volatile threat environment.". . .

Why 'Educated' Liberal Women Are the Real Threat to Our Republic


By Jack Cashill, "When last Thursday night Joe Biden told America, "Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans" threaten "the very foundations of our republic," he missed the mark.  The real threat comes from the unlikeliest of suspects: educated liberal females, or "ELFs" for short.

These are the women who will proudly vote Democrat regardless of soaring inflation, rising gas prices, rampant crime in the streets, the unchecked flood of illegal aliens, and oppressive COVID policies that have irreparably damaged all children, the poor most notably." . . .

Most want Biden impeached, see GOP dropping ball

RealityBites by Broc Smith

 Most want Biden impeached, see GOP dropping ball | Washington Examiner "A majority of voters, including a third of Democrats, support efforts to impeach unpopular President Joe Biden, the latest president to face the nation’s harshest criticism.

"In a new Rasmussen Reports survey, voters by a margin of 52%-42% support impeachment. That includes 77% of Republicans, 50% of independents, and 32% of Democrats.

"But in a related question about Republican promises to make good on impeachment threats, expectations for action are down on the chances the GOP will follow through.

"Rasmussen found that 47% believe it is likely that the Republicans in the House will vote to impeach versus 43% that don’t. A third of Republicans said it was unlikely that the GOP would vote to impeach.

“ 'Support for impeaching Biden is highest among voters 40-64, who are also most likely to think that if Republicans win in the midterms, they actually will impeach the president. Retirees are least supportive of impeaching Biden,” said the polling analysis shared with Secrets.

"The survey follows another that said more voters view the midterm elections as a referendum on Biden. In that survey, most said that Biden should change course if he loses control of Congress.". . .

The Green Surrender (freebeacon.com)   "I sometimes wonder which policy of President Biden's has been or will be the most destructive of them all. There are so many possibilities.

"The American Rescue Plan of 2021 contributed to the record inflation of the past year. Biden's reversal of the Migration Protection Protocols, safe third country agreements, and other immigration policies enacted by the previous administration resulted in historic numbers of illegal entries along the southern border. The withdrawal from Afghanistan abandoned a nation of 39 million people to a murderous, medieval, terrorist-aligned mafia. Biden has pursued a renewed nuclear agreement with Iran despite that regime's support for militias that fire on U.S. troops, plots to kill U.S. officials on U.S. soil, and ultimate responsibility for the assault on Salman Rushdie. Just the other day, Biden announced a complex, unconstitutional, regressive, and inflationary scheme to forgive student debt. The words "moral hazard" are not in his vocabulary.

"Like I said: There are plenty of options for which Biden policy is the worst. Yet his biggest folly may turn out to be his green thumb. The manic Progressive quest to eliminate fossil fuels and preside over a "green energy transition" will make America dependent, unstable, poorer, needier, and weaker. Indeed, it already is doing so.". . .

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot Shipped Migrants Sent by Texas Away After Making a Show of Welcoming Them


 RedState  . . ."As RedState previously reported, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has been teaching virtue-signaling leftists a hard lesson by shipping the illegal migrants flooding his state to their self-proclaimed “sanctuary cities” so that they can get a minor taste of what it’s like to have illegal migrants running around their cities and states.

"Naturally, many Democrat politicians began throwing temper tantrums and accused Abbott of racism and irresponsibility. They either knew they’d been check-mated or lacked the self-awareness to understand they were being massive hypocrites. I’m not sure which is worse in their positions.

"Lightfoot attempted to seem like she was ready to be everything she claimed she was.

“ 'Chicago is and will continue to be a welcoming city. We are collaborating across various City departments and with local, state and community partners to ensure everyone who arrives in Chicago is greeted and treated with dignity and respect,” Lightfoot’s office said in a statement.

"However, when migrants arrived in Chicago there was no one there from the city to greet them or show them where to go next.". . .
