Bethlehem, West Bank— The normally bustling biblical birthplace of Jesus resembled a ghost town on Sunday, as Christmas Eve celebrations in Bethlehem were called off due to the Israel-Hamas war.
The festive lights and Christmas tree that normally decorate Manger Square were missing, as were the throngs of foreign tourists and jubilant youth marching bands that gather in the West Bank town each year to mark the holiday. Dozens of Palestinian security forces patrolled the empty square.
“This year, without the Christmas tree and without lights, there’s just darkness,” said Brother John Vinh, a Franciscan monk from Vietnam who has lived in Jerusalem for six years.

Some may wonder whether President Joe Biden or whichever White House staffer runs his social media accounts was confused about which holiday it is but a Saturday post to X, formerly Twitter, read like an April Fool’s Day prank.
An authoritarian demagogue who is the most divisive leader in the nation’s history, Biden took to the platform on Saturday to tout the wonders of bipartisanship and in a reheated serving of leftover malarkey from the 2020 campaign trail, talked of national unity despite his regime’s efforts to lock away his top political opponent in prison and his continual demonizing of tens of millions of Americans who didn’t vote for him

Former President Donald Trump is no stranger to controversial statements. They are practically his stock-in-trade, after all. But in a recent interview with Hugh Hewitt, he made a statement that is causing some raised eyebrows, namely, that Kamala Harris may well be a better President than Joe Biden. And, from a certain point of view, he may be right.Former President Trump claimed Friday that Vice President Harris would do a better job leading the White House than President Biden.
Pressed by conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt on whether a vote for Biden would be equal to one for Harris, Trump said “I think so.” Though, he added,

In just over two minutes, the story of a man puttering around in his tool shed will reduce many of us to a sobbing mess. So, here's your warning in advance: have that box of tissues at the ready! RedState is no stranger to the magic of emotional Christmas season commercials. Readers might still remember the one my colleague Joe Cunningham shared in 2022 from Chevy.And Chevy followed it up in 2023 with this one, via Nick Arama. It tells the story of a family dealing with the scourge of Alzheimer's, and how a daughter lovingly makes sure that her mother and father have a wonderful Christmas together.

President Joe Biden has helped break records this year at the United States-Mexico border. In particular, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) oversaw record illegal immigration, again, to the U.S. in 2023.
1. 5,000 Illegal Aliens Released Daily
According to private testimony from DHS officials given to House and Senate committees this month, the agency is releasing about 5,000 illegal aliens every day from the border into American communities.
Put another way, Biden’s DHS is releasing about 150,000 illegal aliens into the U.S. interior every month — the equivalent of adding ten Martha’s Vineyards to the country every 30 days.

A personal finance website analyzed the FBI's recent crime statistics to determine the most dangerous cities in America - with a city in Alabama coming out on top.
MoneyGeek’s annual analysis estimated the cost of crime in 302 cities with populations greater than 100,000 across the US.
The analysis determined the violent crime rate, property crime rate, cost of crime per capita and the total cost of crime in millions. The violent crime rate includes murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, rape, robbery and aggravated assault, while the property crime rate includes burglary, larceny-theft and motor vehicle theft offenses per 100,000 residents.

As inflation-battered Americans are crushed by “Bidenomics” this Christmas, the geriatric Democrat was playing Santa Claus, asking if a child would like to sit on his lap in a creepy video that’s making the rounds on social media.
On Friday, President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden dropped by the Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C. to deliver holiday cheer to the young patients and their families, an annual tradition.
While Mrs. Biden read “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” to the kids,

The Harvard Crimson has refused to publish a letter I wrote critical of president Claudine Gay’s testimony in Congress.
The paper published an article Dec. 12 by law Professor Charles Fried providing a legalistic defense of her claim that those who call for genocide against Jews cannot be disciplined without considering “the context.” Here’s my response:
The problem with Charles Fried’s defense of President Gay’s “Context matters” statement is he fails to acknowledge that for Gay, context apparently matters only for genocidal threats against Jews.

Political strategist Roger Stone told Breitbart News that “people don’t really understand how tough Donald Trump is,” adding that the 45th president “really believes that he is going to run the gauntlet, despite the efforts to weaponize the judicial system — that he’s going to win.”
“People don’t really understand how tough Donald Trump is,” Stone told Breitbart News at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest conference in Phoenix, Arizona. “I worked for Richard Nixon, I worked for Senator Bob Dole, both very, very tough guys, but not nearly as tough as Trump.”

New York shoppers had their last-minute Christmas shopping hampered by pro-Palestine protestors, who vowed there would be 'no business as usual during a genocide.'
Upwards of 142 million customers are expected to join in the 'Super Saturday' shopping spree today across America, however those in the Empire State had more to contend with than just the crowds.
Huge crowds were seen moving down Manhattan's Fifth Avenue, with another protest also hitting the largest shopping mall on Long Island, chanting: 'The people are united.'
