It is the one that you are pursuing in these days: the way of togetherness, multilateralism,” he stated.

deficit just days after Gov. Newsom touts economy 12 replies
The California Legislative Analyst’s Office estimates the state will have a $26 billion revenue shortfall for the 2022-2023 fiscal year and announced the state entered into a recession in March 2023.
The news comes the day after Gov. Gavin Newsom defended Democrats' economic record in a nationally televised debate. State Republicans blame Newsom and California Democrats for nearly doubling the state’s budget over the last six years and called for reductions in government programs to protect critical government functions from severe budget cuts.
Scared yet? President Joe Biden bragged Wednesday of his ability to “blow up the world” through a special code his staff possess. The revelation came in Colorado as he made light of nuclear weapons during a visit to the world’s largest windmill factory.
The president went on to mistakenly call his predecessor “Congressman Trump” in an awkward appearance that saw him stumble from one verbal mishap to the next. (snip)
Biden retorted: “Now look, my, my marine carries that. It has a code to blow up the world. That doesn’t, this is not….nuclear weapons is it….alright, ok…you think I’m kidding.”
Renowned American shotgun maker Remington Arms is closing its facility in Ilion, New York, nearly 100 years after it opened. CNY Central reported that the closure will be completed by early March 2024. (snip) The company has faced struggles with New York Democrats’ passage of gun control upon gun control.

“What is the way out of this? It is the one that you are pursuing in these days: the way of togetherness, multilateralism,” he stated.
The liberal crazies, from actor Rob Reiner to the once conservative but now ideologue-for-sale Joe Scarborough, have their knickers in a knot over the potential that America may drift into “fascism” upon the possible election of former President Donald Trump in 2024.
How deliciously ironic that these leftists express concern over phantom fascism in the future as they look the other way while their Grand Poobah, President Joe Biden , is laying out a clinic on fascist tactics.
This is the same Biden administration that has actually brought criminal charges against its political enemies. Trump never did so, even though he had ample opportunity and justification against Hillary Clinton.
The 1st U.S. District Court of Appeals upheld Florida’s congressional map on Friday, reversing a prior court's ruling over concerns that the map violated racial representation requirements as outlined in Florida law.
The previous ruling claimed that the congressional map reduces the ability of black voters to pick a representative in northern Florida. However, the appeals court determined the ruling had placed a “racial segregation mandate” into the Florida Constitution that did not exist. “The constitution cannot demand that all voters are treated equally without regard to race and at the same time demand that voters are treated differently based on race,” the ruling said.

Disney CEO Bob Iger blamed the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s recent failures on lack of executive management on-set.
He spoke Wednesday at the New York Times DealBook Summit that came on the heels of the MCU’s latest box office flop, “The Marvels.” Iger noted the on-set team was lacking during the peak of COVID and has continued to be a weak point. (snip) Iger blamed the decline on restrictions imposed on the studio when COVID was running rampant.
“There wasn’t as much supervision on the set, so to speak, where we have executives there really looking over what’s being done day after day after day,” he said.

Censorship Operations 3 replies
Shellenberger said Thursday that FBI Director Christopher Wray “misled” Congress on the scope of the FBI’s coordination with social media platforms to censor speech online.
Shellenberger and Matt Taibbi, another “Twitter Files” journalist, testified Thursday before the House Select Subcommittee on Weaponization, where Shellenberger questioned Wray’s October testimony on the FBI’s relationship with social media platforms. (snip) “I think it’s fair to say they misled Congress, I can’t be sure of their intention,” Shellenberger replied. “They’re wrong that those agencies weren’t involved in demanding censorship by the social media platforms.”
As I reflect upon our two adoptions this National Adoption Month, I am left teary-eyed remembering the beauty of the journeys for me and my husband, as well as the strength and generosity of their biological mothers — women who went above themselves in choosing life and hope for their children.
Twenty-four years ago, doctors diagnosed me with endometriosis and told me I would likely never be able to have children. My husband and I were devastated. As I coped with my grief, I had no idea that a 19-year-old girl named Elizabeth was grieving nearby for the opposite reason:
Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott announced Wednesday the state will bus another 70,000 immigrants to Democrat-run cities around the nation amid the Biden administration’s ongoing crisis at the Southern Border.
“Texas will bus migrants to sanctuary cities until Biden secures the border,” Abbott said on X. “Our mission provides vital relief to border towns.”
According to Abbott, the state intends to transport more than 12,500 migrants to Washington D.C., 25,000 to New York City, 20,000 to Chicago, 3,200 to Philadelphia, 7,400 to Denver, and over 1,000 to Los Angeles.
A Waukesha judge ruled Wednesday that Wisconsin voters cannot cancel an absentee ballot that they have already mailed back just so they can cast a new ballot. (snip) The suit was launched in September of 2022 by Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections on behalf of voter Nancy Koranic who claimed that the Wisconsin Elections Commission illegally told clerks in August of 2022 that so-called “ballot spoiling” was legal. (snip)
Wisconsin has seen several lawsuits relating to absentee ballots since the 2020 election, with a judge ruling in September of 2022 that guidance allowing election clerks to fill in missing information on absentee ballot witness certificates was illegal.
A traditional Catholic family was allegedly “dragged out of their home at gunpoint, handcuffed and locked in a van” earlier this year after the FBI “goaded” their 15-year-old son to post “offensive memes” online. The teen, a volunteer firefighter and altar boy, was then hospitalized on mental health pretenses, according to his father, Jeremiah Rufini. (snip) The FBI targeted the boy as part of a sting operation catfishing traditionalist Catholic teenagers with “extreme political content,” Rufini explained in the family’s GiveSendGo crowdfunding site.

Meghan Markle 'felt she had more of a right to speak' than Kate Middleton at certain events because she was a 'self-made woman', a source has claimed.[Snip]The source said: 'She seemed to feel like she had more of a right to speak than her sister-in-law, who had married into the family as an unknown whereas Meghan regarded herself as a philanthropist who could teach the royals a thing or two about charity. 'I think she found it difficult that the Royal Foundation was already a well oiled machine by the time she got there.'
Democratic strategist James Carville referred to Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Christian nationalism as threats "that are bigger than al-Qaeda" on Friday.
Carville was a guest on Real Time with Bill Maher when the host asked him about Johnson's ability to hold the Republican Party together in the House. The GOP holds a slim majority, and Johnson is the first Speaker of the House to hail from Louisiana, Carville's home state. In response, the Democratic strategist said he did not think Johnson would hold the party together and went even further in his political analysis of the speaker.
Cosmopolitan, a popular magazine for young women, shared with readers how they could have a ritualized abortion service via an abortion facility named after Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's mother. Cosmopolitan explained on its Instagram page on Nov. 16 about the process of having a Satanic-themed abortion. It specifically addressed a "ceremonial" service provided at the "Samuel Alito’s Mom’s Satanic Abortion Clinic," named as an insult to Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito.

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin warned at the Reagan National Defense Forum on Saturday that Israel could face “strategic defeat” if it was not more careful about how it fought Hamas, because more Palestinians might be driven to support the terrorist group . (X Video) Austin seemed not to know that the vast majority of Palestinians already support Hamas, at least in one recent opinion poll.
A wartime poll of Gaza and West Bank residents last month by Birzeit University’s Arab World for Research & Development (AWRAD) found that “the majority of (59%) strongly supported or (16%) supported to some extent the October 7 attacks carried by the Hamas-led factions.”
Donald Trump: Man in the Arena

Sundance, that tireless intellectual warrior standing guard over at The Conservative Treehouse, occasionally jeers: “You ‘conservative pundits’ still don’t get it. Trump isn’t our candidate. He’s our murder weapon. And the GOP is our victim.”
Recently, he returned to that refrain after highlighting an interview in which Mitt Romney announced his intention to vote for a Democrat unless Republican primary voters nominated Chris Christie, Nikki Haley, or Ron DeSantis for president. Given that Romney tried to remove President Trump from office for Joe Biden’s quid-pro-quo crimes in Ukraine and elsewhere, his continued betrayal of grassroots voters is no surprise. Still, considering how many ordinary
Chevrolet has done the impossible this holiday season: it produced a commercial without any woke nonsense, which was beyond refreshing. No Dylan Mulvaney shenanigans, no virtue signaling, and no liberal drivel being forced down our throats. I don’t know if America’s executives have learned that going woke is a ruinously expensive venture. The car company might release a lefty ad later. For now, let’s enjoy this tearjerker. The ad starts as a family visits their grandparents over the holidays, where the grandmother is exhibiting signs of dementia. She doesn’t even acknowledge her young granddaughters seeing her.

The world's rich and famous, plus an army of publicists, hangers-on and, mendicants, are attending the COP28 meeting in Dubai, the ostentatious 7-star playground capital of the United Arab Emirates, where even the police drive luxury sports cars.
We peasant classes sitting at home note that climate royalty, including King Charles from the U.K., John Kerry from USA, and Blackouts Bowen from Australia, are all flying there, burning vast amounts of carbon fuels. Fittingly, these hypocrites chose to meet in the richest and most wasteful artificial city in the world, wallowing in wealth derived from oil, gas, and air travel tourists.
Trump is facing legal cases in five different states across the country, with two separate actions in New York. With some trial dates yet to be set, and others having already heard some evidence, here is everything you need to know. Donald Trump’s children are due to give evidence in a New York courtroom in a civil action against the family and their company.
He, himself, is due to testify in the case next week. Trump's journey through the courts is turning into a legal labyrinth.
You'd be forgiven for losing track, so here's a refresher guide.

Film Features Homosexual Parents, Sexually
Charged Dialogue 11 replies
The flailing Disney Corporation is still digging that woke hole to bury itself in and its latest Christmas movie aimed at teens is just another example of its continuing obsession to jam radical LGBT themes in every movie and TV show it makes for kids.
If you thought you might be tuning in to see its newest holiday flick, “The Naughty Nine,” to see a fun Christmas romp, you’ll instead be confronted with a family headed by a pair of gay dads and another scene where two young boys are confiding in each other about who they think is a male “hottie.”
Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee has released a new ad — but accidentally told her voters to head to the polls on the wrong day.
Jackson Lee is campaigning against Texas Senator John Whitmire for the Houston mayoral runoff election. (X Video) In the ad, Jackson Lee tells voters, “if we’re gonna bring down crime, fix our streets, and bring good paying jobs here, then Houston needs a champion who’s ready to fight for what’s right. And I am.”

Most in little clothing or shredded clothing and their bodies bloodied particularly round their underwear and some women shot many times in the face as if to mutilate them. “Their faces were in anguish and often their fingers clenched as they died. We saw women whose pelvises were broken. Legs broken. There were women who had been shot in the crotch, in the breasts … there seems no doubt what happened to them.”
