"Americans are slow to anger, but once provoked beyond limits, they save the world, and hopefully, America."

 Camp Intifada: Students for Theocratic Authoritarianism - Clarice Feldman  ..."Nevertheless, too many of the affected colleges and universities have failed in their mission to protect a safe learning environment for their students. The reasons are many, including reliance on foreign donations, particularly from Hamas-supporting Qatar, faculty rolls stuffed with anti-American and anti-Israeli ideologues, the DEI staff and humanities departments’ opposition to Jews and Israel, the large number of full-freight paying foreign students who do not share Western values, and the always present faculty and administrative psychological inability to handle conflict."

Will protesting students face consequences? - Mike McDaniel 

. . ."In January of 2024, American Thinker posted Terrorist attacks in America: for what are they waiting? It was my take on the kinds of attacks we’re virtually surely facing in the near future. In February, I posted a book review of Kurt Schlichter’s The Attack, which mirrors my predictions while expanding on them. The book is a novel, an oral history of three days of nationwide terror attacks, attacks in which American college students willingly participated:" . . .

. . . "That, and so many of these “student protestors,” particularly those whose parents are forking over $100,000+ a year for supposedly prestigious degrees, have seldom, if ever, faced consequences for their antisocial rhetoric and blatant crimes, such as taking custodians hostage, which in sane states is known as kidnapping. Universities “negotiate” lunatic demands rather than simply having demanders arrested and expelled. “Protestors” seizing and damaging university buildings demand to be fed gourmet and vegan fare and universities witlessly agree. Even on the occasions protestors are arrested, they’re immediately released without bond, and they’re not prosecuted. Why wouldn’t they engage in “an orgy of blood and violence?” They believe they’re untouchable, the moral arbiters of their age. The “moral” causes, about which they know nothing, excuse anything they do." . . .

Still others have bought into the lies spread by pro-Hamas groups that the atrocities inflicted upon innocent Israelis on Oct. 7 never happened.

How 'Let's Go Brandon' became code for insulting Joe Biden

 Colleen Long; AP News  

"How did Republicans settle on ‘Let’s Go Brandon’ as a G-rated substitute for its more vulgar three-word cousin?"

. . ."It started at an Oct. 2 NASCAR race at the Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama. Brandon Brown, a 28-year-old driver, had won his first Xfinity Series and was being interviewed by an NBC Sports reporter. The crowd behind him was chanting something at first difficult to make out. The reporter suggested they were chanting “Let’s go, Brandon” to cheer the driver. But it became increasingly clear they were saying: “—- Joe Biden.”

"NASCAR and NBC have since taken steps to limit “ambient crowd noise” during interviews, but it was too late — the phrase already had taken off.

"When the president visited a construction site in suburban Chicago a few weeks ago to promote his vaccinate-or-test mandate, protesters deployed both three-word phrases. This past week, Biden’s motorcade was driving past a “Let’s Go Brandon” banner as the president passed through Plainfield, New Jersey.

"And a group chanted “Let’s go, Brandon” outside a Virginia park on Monday when Biden made an appearance on behalf of the Democratic candidate for governor, Terry McAuliffe. Two protesters dropped the euphemism entirely, holding up hand-drawn signs with the profanity." . . .

Still buying that far-left trope about “diversity being our strength?”

 BareNakedIslam (barenakedislam.com)

Do not fear being labeled an ‘Islamophobe.’ I'm sure Winston Churchill was once accused of being a ‘Naziphobe.’

"Islam is NOT a religion of peace, nor does Islam mean peace. Islam means submission.

"Most people are simply unaware that Islam is NOT  just another religion but a totalitarian political cult-like ideology, which compels its followers into blind obedience, teaches intolerance, brutality and locks all Muslims and non-Muslims in a struggle deriving directly from the 7th century  nomadic, predatory, Bedouin culture.

"Islam means “submission” to the will of Allah and the teachings as depicted in the Qur’an which include jihad – the genocidal slaughter of infidels by the sword, killing by beheading, intolerance of other religions, as well as forcing submission to Islam. The ultimate goal of jihad is the domination of Islam over the entire world.

"In Islam, one is considered “moderate” if one supports the goals of jihad, if not the tactics. Those who totally reject the violent teachings of Islam are considered apostates of Islam and as such, are condemned to death. Moderate Muslims are peaceful “in spite of Islam,” not because of it. The “religion of peace” is a concept the West is eager to embrace – all in the name of political correctness – refusing to believe that a major world religion poses such a devastating threat to humanity." . . .

Lucas: Taking aim at Biden' memory

  PETER LUCAS (bostonherald.com)

"Where are the fact-checkers when you need them?

"I do not mean the quick, fact-checked repudiation of the left wing’s nasty distortion of Donald Trump’s “bloodbath” remark. That canard blew up on its own accord.

"I have in mind Joe Biden’s story of how he once “embarrassed the hell” out of Mongolian Prime Minister Sukhbaatar Batbold on an archery range outside the Mongolian capital Ulaanbaatar during a 2011 visit when he was vice president.

"The Mongolians, under Genghis Kahn (1162-1227) and after, used their expertise in archery and horsemanship to conquer China, east Asia, and parts of Europe. Their mastery of the bow and wild horses is still part of their heritage.

"When it comes to archery, though, Biden would have you believe he mastered the masters and outshot any Mongolian archer around, even though the Mongols have been experts at it for a thousand years.

"Joe Biden told the story of his adventure in archery in one of his bizarre asides — which are many — in his two days of interviews conducted by special counsel Robert Hur.

"The 258-page transcript of the interview, which contained the asides where Biden meandered, was released last week. While fascinating, the transcript has been largely ignored by the left-leaning, pro-Biden establishment press.

"Hur, who investigated Biden’s mishandling of classified documents after he left the office of vice president, found that while Biden had willfully retained documents he was not entitled to have, he would not be prosecuted because of his age and failing memory.

"While Biden could not remember who stored classified documents in his garage, his house or anywhere else, he could recall Mongolia.

"While Hur’s decision has been hammered by both Republicans and Democrats, the transcript makes for some interesting reading in that Biden has been known to make up stories or embellish them.

"Examples of Biden’s fantasies are tales of him being “appointed” to the U.S. Naval Academy, his arrest in South Africa when he tried to visit a jailed Nelson Mandela, and that he drove an 18-wheeler in his youth.

"None of them are true, but each fantasy has a slim attachment to reality. He may have been recommended to attend the Naval Academy, he did not get arrested on a visit to Mandela, and he may have ridden in an 18-wheeler.

"Nevertheless, when Biden tells these tall tales he inevitably makes himself out to be the hero, as he did in Mongolia,

"But he did fire a bow and arrow in Mongolia and had a photo of it on the wall of his home in Wilmington, Del., where the interview took place. The interview took place in a room where classified documents were also stored.

Without being asked, Biden rambled on about the photo, which showed him pulling back the strings of a Mongolian bow.

"Biden said verbatim, “You know, I went to Mongolia and, and, great pictures. I, unfortunately, embarrassed the hell out of the leader of Mongolia. They were showing — they were doing — a —what they would do at the time of the invasion of the Mongols into Europe in the 14 — in the 800s…

“ 'And so they walked over and they had a target with bales of hay a hundred yards away, and these guerillas were, you know, taking shots. And I think — I don’t know if it was to embarrass me or to make a point, but I get handed the bow and arrow. I’m not a bad archer. But (indiscernible) where I can pull it back, so I — and pure luck, I hit the godamn target. (Laughter)…

“ 'No, I really did. Bales of hay that were, like, 20 bales of hay with a big target in the middle of the bale of hay. And so I didn’t mean anything by it. I turned to the prime minister and handed it to him and the poor son-of-a bitch couldn’t pull it back. I was, I was like, oh, God. (Laughter.)' ”...

Violent Female Secret Service Agent 'Should NEVER have been Hired' -

How would she have handled watching Joe Biden swimming naked in the White House pool?  

 DEI hire - The Lid (lidblog.com)   "A female Secret Service agent who insiders say should never have been hired erupted in violence last week.

"The DEI hire was hired solely because she was a woman and so the Secret Service could tout its number of women on the job.

"Per The Blaze:

Michelle Herczeg seemed to have a bad day on Monday. The Secret Service agent arrived at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland around 9 a.m. as part of a security detail for Vice President Kamala Harris, who was scheduled to depart the base later that morning.

Before Harris ever arrived, Herczeg began exhibiting strange behavior. According to reports, Herczeg gained access to another agent’s phone and proceeded to delete apps on it. The man eventually recovered his phone and otherwise went about his business.

Herczeg then allegedly began engaging in other bizarre behavior, such as mumbling to herself and hiding behind curtains. She even reportedly started throwing various items, including feminine napkins, and warning her colleagues that they were “going to burn in hell and needed to listen to God,” a source told Susan Crabtree of RealClearPolitics.

When the special agent in charge attempted to intervene, Herczeg allegedly began screaming and insisting that other female agents on Harris’ security detail would support her and allow her to continue working.

"Herczeg was eventually removed from her assignment. And then things went from bad to worse.

"After being told, she reportedly tackled the SAIC and started punching him.

“ 'She snapped entirely,” the source said.. . .

Intifada hurt Democrats; Democrats are drinking the venom of anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism.

 Don Surber (substack.com)

Democrats hitched their star to young college graduates — Free Ride Educated Devotees of Obama, or FREDOs for short. They’re idiots. 27% blame Israel for the October 7 attack by Hamas. 

Toon added by TD

"Americans woke up Wednesday morning to scenes on TV of police in blue cities arresting college students who camped on campuses. The action came as Democrats were appalled —

— by their polling numbers.

"The internal numbers must be even worse because Chuckles the Clown Schumer, the Senate Democrat leader, took to the Senate floor and said, “Smashing windows with hammers and taking over a university building is not free speech. It is lawlessness. And those who did it should promptly face the consequences that are not merely a slap on the wrist.

“ 'Campuses cannot be places of learning and argument and discussion when protests veer into criminality and those who commit such acts are doing nothing to convince others that their cause is just.”

"I do not recall Schumer condemning the BLM riots of 2020. Burning used car lots apparently is covered by the First Amendment.

"His denunciation came four weeks after FJB demanded a ceasefire, which is what the students demanded.

"This would be the 16th ceasefire in Israel’s 75-year history. The last one was broken on October 7 by out-of-uniform Gazan soldiers who attacked a civilian festival and raped, tortured, murdered and then mutilated the bodies of 1,400 Israelis and foreign visitors. The violations of international law included taking hostage 240 people with Americans among them.

"FJB, Democrats and the media, who worked feverishly to free a WNBA player who was arrested in Russia on drug law violations, have ignored the Palestinians kidnapping Americans.

"The campus protests revealed to Americans that Democrats are drinking in their Kool-Aid the venom of anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism." . . .

Alvin Bragg Is as Corrupt as the New York Robber Barons

 The case is driven not by law but by politics. - The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  

"What makes Bragg’s position even weaker is that the federal prosecutors looked at the very case Bragg sees as criminal and declined to prosecute." . . .

"New York state governmental corruption metastasized after the Civil War. Mayor William “Boss” Tweed’s famous ring in New York City elevated kickbacks to a high art. His ability to deliver votes ensured that legislators found it in their interest to give him plenty of cover. When the arch-robber baron Jay Gould tried to stop fellow robber baron Cornelius Vanderbilt’s stealthy attempt to grab control of the Gould’s Erie Railroad, Gould created 50,000 more shares of Erie stock, diluting Vanderbilt’s shares. Running away to New Jersey to escape criminal charges, Gould and his confederates bribed enough legislators in Albany to buy a post facto rewrite of the criminal code legitimizing what he had done.

"Eventually, demand for reform grew. Boss Tweed went down on graft charges and ended his days in the Ludlow Street Jail. New legislators set reforms in motion, one of which was a constitutional amendment banning the legislature from incorporating other laws in their legislation by mere reference. This happened in other states swept by the reform movements of the time. A similar ban in New Jersey was in a state Supreme Court ruling for the purpose of clarity: Legislators would know clearly the content of the bill they were voting on, and the people would know what it required of them.

"The New York Constitution includes this provision today in Article III, Section 16. It reads: 

No act shall be passed which shall provide that any existing law, or any part thereof, shall be made or deemed a part of said act, or which shall enact that any existing law, or part thereof, shall be applicable, except by inserting it in such act.

"In other words, no hiding of laws inside laws. If it is to be law, let it be set forth explicitly." . . .

What the Pro-Palestinian Campus Protests Are Really About

 Carl R. Trueman | First Things   The childish, ignorant partiers wearing those look-at-me fashions around their necks offer the world nothing but disgust and embarrassment over all the "we want" and "we demand" proclamations. The Tunnel Dweller

"But no protester has the right to be taken seriously merely as a protester. When protests are childish, inconsistent, racist, and rooted in no shared vision beyond that of mere negation, then those who participate in them should be treated with contempt.

"The recent pro-Palestinian student protests on elite university campuses across the country offer fascinating, if somewhat depressing, insights into the state of modern American culture. It is not so much that the lunatics have taken over the asylum as the kindergartners have taken over the nursery.

"First, society takes the attitudes and antics of the young far too seriously. In an era when we are reliably informed that adolescence persists well into the twenties, it is strange that we deem the views of anyone under the age of thirty to have any real significance or merit. Yet it seems to be an unspoken assumption that young people, especially young, angry, and opinionated people, are to be indulged as important. World leaders were clamoring to have cringeworthy photo ops with Greta Thunberg when she first rose to prominence. Thunberg types now abound on the left and right of the political spectrum. They often combine their ill-informed opinions with a confident youthful extremism that should be summarily dismissed or mocked without mercy rather than featured on the news. 

"This exaltation of youth is simultaneously the exaltation of ignorance and incompetence. Early claims of Israeli occupation of Gaza and the continued sloppy use of the language of genocide, fueled by people at the U.N. who could benefit from using a dictionary, are two obvious examples of the former. As for the latter, when, for example, did adult revolutionaries hold hunger strikes lasting a whole twelve hours or seize buildings and then demand that the university authorities give them food and water? I have no affection for Che Guevara, but he did at least spend time in a Bolivian jungle while trying to foment revolution. I presume he never once considered whining to the Bolivian government about the harsh conditions of jungle life and had to find his own food and water. A cynic might say that even our revolutionaries are pathetic these days." . . .

Joe Biden's Medal of Freedom Ceremony Goes South As His Brain Fries and He Slurs Uncontrollably

What did they do to deserve such a reward? The answer is nothing, but they have been radical leftists, and that was enough. 

"As with any public appearance by Biden, the event offered ample evidence of his senility. At one point, he appeared to forget what he was there for, perhaps mistakenly thinking he was awarding the Medal of Honor to someone.

Luke Skywalker will always love Joe.  When it comes to Biden worship, Mark Hamill outdoes the media - Eric Utter 

. . ."Most preposterously of all, according to the obviously deranged partisan hack Mark Hamill, “Joe Biden is the best president we’ve ever had.” And, Hamill opines, Donald Trump is the “worst.” Biden, a desiccated husk on a good day, better than Abraham Lincoln? Has Biden won a war? Freed anybody? Is he capable of delivering an equivalent to the Gettysburg Address? Is he capable of stating his own address?

"How about George Washington? How does Biden compare to the Father of Our Country? Washington eventually defeated the greatest military the world had ever known…without a navy…or an established professional army. He could have been a king but refused. And, as the first Chief Executive, he set precedents for every president that followed. Biden effectively surrendered to the Taliban. Biden thinks he is royalty or should be. Let’s pray to God that future presidents don’t follow his precedents." . . .
