AIPAC Trying To Get Hill Harper To Oust Rashida Tlaib!

Hill Harper told the junk food media that AIPAC will not back him if he stayed in the senate primary race. They demanded he dropped out and challenge Rashida Tlaib.

Actor Hill Harper has considered running for U.S. Senate to replace Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) but is considering a challenge against Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee [AIPAC] has called him and asked him to drop his senate bid and challenge the progressive lawmaker. Tlaib, the three term American lawmaker who is Muslim and a 4th generation Palestinian has withheld her endorsement of President Joe Biden due to his one sided stance on the Israel-Palestinian conflict.

She and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) have been vilified by the far right and several of their fellow Democratic lawmakers in a coordinated plot to silence their opposition to Israel and its genocide on Gaza. This is racist and Islamophobic.

Harper was offered $20 million to drop out of the Michigan senate primary race. The donor wanted Harper to run for the Michigan 12th District which Tlaib represents.

He declined it.

I didn’t intend for a private phone call to turn public. But now that it has, here’s the truth.

One of AIPAC’s biggest donors offered $20m if I dropped out of the U.S. Senate race to run against @RashidaTlaib.

I said no. I won’t be bossed, bullied, or bought. https://t.co/Ji76jwPE3X

In a post on X, the actor-turned-politician said he rejected the notion.

I won’t be bossed, bullied, or bought,” he wrote.

Tlaib, the only Palestinian-American member of Congress, has faced intense scrutiny in recent weeks over her criticism of the Israeli government’s military operations against Hamas. Earlier this month, the House passed a GOP-led resolution to censure Tlaib over her comments.

AIPAC wants to push Rashida Tlaib out.

Harper did not name the donor in the post. But in an interview with CNN, his campaign spokesman Karthik Ganapathy identified Michigan businessman Linden Nelson as the person who offered the financial support.

Nelson did not immediately respond to emails and telephone messages Wednesday afternoon.

Harper, a first-time candidate known for his roles on “The Good Doctor” and “CSI: NY” television shows, faces a stiff challenge in vying for an open Senate seat next year. Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin, another candidate seeking the Senate seat, had led Harper – and the rest of the field – in fundraising.

Harper is using the phrase about not being “bossed, bullied, or bought” to solicit campaign donations.

ישראל וחמאס מסכימים להפסקת אש זמנית!

Resistence is the only way to obtain freedom.

Israel And Hamas Agree to Temporary Ceasefire! 

End the apartheid.

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

The only way for this to end is the UN places sanctions on Israel, world leaders call for an embargo of resources to Israel, mandate that Israel remove border walls, end settlement building in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, end occupation in Golan Heights, end the Gaza blockade, be forced to pay for rebuilding and reparations for Palestinians and the U.S. ends its alliance to Israel.

World leaders must acknowledge that Palestinians lives matter and Israel must be held accountable for its actions. The leadership must dissolve and replaced wirh a new democratic government that serves all races, religions and ethnicities.

AIPAC must register as a foreign interest operation. 

That is the only solution to this.

On this ceasefire, Qatar warned both parties that consequences will come if they violate this. I mean it is a temporary ceasefire and Israeli leaders have already said they want to push the Gazans further down.

The ceasefire won't last because Israel will violate it. The propaganda that Israel pushes has made it seem like it was a bad idea and Hamas will violate when actually Israel will.

Under the Israel-Hamas deal, the two sides agreed to a four-day truce so that 50 women and children under the age of 19 taken hostage could be freed in return for 150 Palestinian women and teenagers in Israeli detention.

The 50 hostages, among about 240 taken by Hamas in their Oct. 7 raid on Israel, are expected to be released in batches, probably about a dozen a day, during the four-day ceasefire.

Those involved in the deal have described the break in hostilities "a humanitarian pause". The pause will be extended by a day for each additional batch of 10 hostages released, Israel said in a statement.

Hamas said Israel had agreed to halt air traffic over the north of Gaza from 10 a.m. (0800 GMT) until 4 p.m. (1400 GMT) each day of the truce and to halt all air traffic over the south for the entire period. The group said Israel agreed not to attack or arrest anyone in Gaza, and people can move freely along Salah al-Din Street, the main road along which many Palestinians have fled northern Gaza where Israel launched its ground invasion.

Israel uses thirst traps to spread propaganda and make it cool to cause a genocide.

Qatar's chief negotiator in ceasefire talks, Minister of State at the Foreign Ministry Mohammed Al-Khulaifi, said that under the deal there would be "no attack whatsoever. No military movements, no expansion, nothing."

The deal was announced 46 days after the start of the war, one of the most fierce conflicts to erupt between the two sides. Hamas fighters killed 1,200 people when they launched their raid on Israel, the biggest single-day toll on Israeli soil since its creation in 1948, and more than 14,000 people have been killed in the Israeli air strikes and land incursion since then, the most by far of any recent war.

Amid such ferocious fighting, the large number of hostages and Israel's stated determination to wipe out Hamas in Gaza, mediating even a temporary deal, like this one, proved far more challenging than in previous conflicts.

The initial negotiations for a deal between Israel and Hamas, both sworn enemies, began within days of the Oct. 7 attack but progress was slow. This was partly because communications between the warring sides had to go via Doha or Cairo and back for every detail hammered out, such as securing a full list from Hamas for those to be released, U.S. officials said.

Even with a deal in place, the ceasefire is temporary. Hamas has said throughout the truce its "fingers remain on the trigger". Israel has said the conflict will continue until all the hostages are freed and Hamas is eliminated.

In 2014, when Israel last launched a major land invasion in Gaza, it took 49 days for both sides to implement a ceasefire deal, but that brought major fighting to an end for several years.

Blame Game: Benjamin Jones!

White terrorist opened fire on Ohio Walmart.

Mass shooting No. 691.

Okay, the No. 1 problem in the United States happens again. What happens is we cover it for a few days, get reaction from President Joe Biden, a state governor or a mayor about the latest mass shooting in the country.

We talk about the weapon of choice for mass shootings. The calls for more gun reform grow only for Republicans and some Democrats to balk at it.

Republicans will say "Now it's not the time to talk about gun violence."

As usual, we come to another mass shooting in the United States. It hits close to home for me. It happened in Beavercreek, Ohio, an exburb in the Dayton metro area.

These murderers don't have mental illness. They are calculated and prepared. It happened to be a moment where they have the opportunity to take out lives. There's no sickness in the head. Most mass shooters legally obtain their assault rifles without little background checks. They have likely no criminal history and they are willing to use the assault weapon in the only thing it's good for: Killing numerous lives.

I dismiss this ridiculous notion that criminals are the problem, not the guns. Firearms are often obtained through legal purchases. 

Ohio is an "open carry" state, in which the open carrying of firearms is legal with or without a license, which prompted discussion of gun rights and race.

A 20-year old white terrorist opened fire on shoppers at a Dayton area Walmart. This may have been a racially motivated extremist attack. The victims were people of color.

Four people were shot inside a Walmart in the suburbs of Dayton Monday night after a 20-year-old man entered the store and opened fire with a rifle.

Capt. Scott Molnar with the Beavercreek Police Department said a man entered a Walmart location on Pentagon Boulevard just after 8:30 p.m. and began firing shots, hitting four people.

All four people were taken to area hospitals; police said they are all adults.

President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Mike DeWine, Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) and Rep. Mike Carey (R-OH) were notified of the mass shooting in Beavercreek.

During a Tuesday afternoon press conference, Beavercreek Police Captain Chad Lindsey said they have identified the shooter, who died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

By the 2 p.m. press conference, three of the victims were considered stable and one victim was in critical condition, but stabilized, Lindsey said.

The gun used in the shooting has been identified as a Hi-Point .45 caliber carbine long gun, Lindsey said.

"This has been an incredibly tragic incident," Molnar said the night of the shooting. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the victims, to the responding officers and everyone that was here this evening."

Molnar said the shooter died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. No shots were fired by police officers, Molnar said.

On Tuesday, Lindsey said the shooter was found by responding officers just behind the vision center. The victims, however, were hit by gunfire throughout the store; Lindsey said they were all found in different areas of the store.

Body camera footage shows Beavercreek Police arrive to see terrorist killed himself.

Lindsey said the victims' wounds varied, too.

"The shots were largely random, they ranged throughout all parts of the body," he said.

The victims were shoppers. No employees at Walmart were injured.

Zrinka Dilber, assistant special agent in charge for the FBI Cincinnati field office, said the investigation into the gunman is still ongoing. Dilber could not say whether the shooter obtained his gun legally, whether he had any connection to the Walmart or the victims or any other information regarding his motivations.

Dilber asked that anyone who may have known the gunman or had any insight into his motivations contact the FBI, either by calling 1.800.CALL.FBI or by submitting a tip online.

In 2014, Beavercreek Police officer Sean Williams shot and killed Jonathan Crawford III inside the store after an asshole named Ronald Ritchie prank called the law. The white man called 911 on a bogus claim that Crawford was blatantly pointing a firearm at shoppers. In fact, Crawford was holding a pellet gun and on his cellphone when Williams shot him within seconds of contact.

Williams was not criminally charged but has been on working duty but withheld from foot patrol.

Again, having more security, teachers being armed and offering safe rooms are not solving the problem. The problem is lawmakers not willing to stop gun violence.

THE NICE GUY IS THE MOST DANGEROUS PERSON WITH A FIREARM. THOSE WHO ARE SPURN BY RELATIONSHIPS, THE WORKPLACE, SOCIETY IN GENERAL WILL SEEK REVENGE BY TAKING OUT LIVES. THEY WANT TO BE RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS OF MASSACRING THEIR FELLOW HUMAN BEING.

THE JUNK FOOD MEDIA AND POLITICIANS ADD FUEL TO THE FIRE BY AMPING UP POLARIZING RHETORIC. 

What to do to protect your life.

1. Run - If you hear sounds like firecrackers, popping sounds or suspicious activities around a large gathering (i.e. malls, stores, clubs, public gatherings), if you can flee, run away from the shooter. Do not run in a straight path of the sight. Move around and zig-zag if possible to keep yourself out the line of fire. It's best to not film a shooter commiting the act. If you are willing to risk your life for a viral video, more power to you but its best to stay out of the line of fire by running away.

2. Hide - If you are involved in an active shooting, you must barricade yourself in a room and keep doors locked, lights off, phones on silent. Do not go into restrooms, lockers and kitchens. Those are most likely places where shooters often go. If you can barricade a room to prevent a shooter from getting in, it eliminate the opportunity for the shooter to get through. Make sure you keep your voice low when you're involved in mass shooting. Call 9-1-1 if you can.

3. Fight - If you are willing to risk your life or willing to film the incident, you have no choice but to fight. Make sure you grab something that is powerful enough to disarm a shooter. Do not confront a shooter in the midst of sight. Make yourself not visible if you're trying to fight. Do not think being a "good guy with a gun" is going to stop a bad guy. The cops don't see good guys trying to stop bad guys. They see active shooters and they will shoot anyone who is armed regardless of the matter. If you're ready to fight, be prepared to die. It's best to not be easily seen if you're trying to stop a shooter. If you're a conceal carry and attempt to disarm an active shooter, you are willing to sacrifice your life to save lives. You are willing to go hero, you could die a hero or an idiot.

4. Realize - Mind you, that the types of firearms used by shooter are based on capacity which limits the time of reaction. As with rule 3, you have only less than a second to make a reaction when the shooter is set on sights. So there's no real solution to save your life in the event of an active shooter. The best thing to do is understand, that anywhere in the United States could be a target of a mass shooting. Congress isn't doing a damn thing about it.

Beavercreek cops arrive too late.

The far right often infiltrate protests and cause chaos to paint progressives protests as violent. Even when the far right attacked the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, they believed that far left members infiltrated the mob. Ignore the fact that Washed Up 45 and his allies urged the supporters to come, called for them to protest and told them to not show weakness.

According to the far right: White shooters are mentally ill. Black shooters are unrepentant criminals. Gay shooters are active groomers. Muslim shooters are terrorists. Hispanic and Asian shooters are illegal immigrants. Almost all mass shooters are registered Democrats because they have liked one thing common to the left. Of course, they often share disinformation by using the "Sam Hyde" meme as a way to denounce most mass shooters being white. They say a white person should "protect" from protesters and use of firearms are justified. They say if a shooter is active military or a veteran who supports conservative causes, they are considered a "heroes" and use of firearms are justified. If the shooters are teens, the far right automatically assume the gunmen are Black.

The Republicans usually amplify white victims. Anytime a person of color kills a white victim, it is often wall-to-wall coverage on Fox, Twitter and they force it into national news. They make the case to blame Black Lives Matter, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, Democrats, Rev. Al Sharpton and rap music for Black on whatever violence. Republican lawmakers who do not live in urban neighborhoods often troll social media to talk about gun violence or crime in Chicago, Baltimore, Milwaukee and New York City while not doing a damn thing to stop it. If a white person shoots a Black person, the shooter is given the benefit of doubt. White shooters are given glowing profiles about their perfect lives and how friends noticed something but refused to do something. When it comes to Black shooters, automatic vilification. They don't see mental illness. They see it as gang violence, allegedly fatherless homes, Democratic policies or the need for more firearms. The far right and Republicans exploit gun violence in the Black community for culture wars and racism.

Republicans solutions are more guns, blame others for America's social ills and defect from accepting reality.

You're not safe at home, in the school, the concert, the hospital, the church, the casino, the bus station, the subway, the light rail train, the buses, the malls, the local big box store, the political rally, the protest rally, the beach, the women's center for reproductive surgeries, the mosque, the synagogue, the road trip, the natural disasters, the state/federal buildings, the workplace, the gas station, the family picnic, the food truck rally, the funerals, the birthday parties, the graduations, the wedding, the televised events, the sporting events, the homeless shelter and many more events that have some terrorist with a firearm. Domestic violence, suicide, racism, culture war inspired, politically motivated and international operative inspired are types of gun violence.

Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of never ending tragedy. Gun violence, extremism and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how gun reform is taking away your rights to own firearms.

I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth.

One of the many mass shooting in Walmart. Two others were in Texas. El Paso in 2018 was the most deadliest Walmart mass shooting.

When you hear folks say "gun rights," what they really mean is that its white privilege. This good guy with a gun nonsense has to end. The cops didn't do nothing when children were shot inside a school. A security guard was shot dead trying to protect shoppers. A cop accidentally shot his own. The good guy who tried to stop a bad guy is outgunned and a part of the rule #3.

Remember #3 means: The "good guy with a gun" better be prepared to die if they want to stop a shooter.

I don't want to hear folks say masks and vaccine mandates impede their freedoms. It prevents a deadly outbreak from spreading. If you want to die from the coronavirus, that's on you. We lost over 1 million people from the coronavirus.

I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. Cause a bullet does not have eyes and it's always likely gonna hit a target. These folks seem to not get it. These incidents are a tragic part of American history. Thoughts and prayers and your heart going out to the victims is not enough. It quite frankly is an insult. I am also tired of scapegoating Black on Black crime, Chicago, Baltimore and Democratic mayors for the nation's obsession to be numb to gun violence. You pretty much enable this nonsense by deflecting.

President Joe Biden is trying to curb gun violence. However, he has no support from Republicans. Most Democrats and America are for gun control measures. However one Democrat and one independent who caucuses with the Democrats in the Senate refuse to change the filibuster rules and its holding us back.

The National Rifle Association is always pushing against gun control. They will not relinquish from the narrative. These guns are not saving lives. The Republicans aided by a fickle junk food media are openly encouraging anarchy and disruption in a desperate attempt for the Republicans to win back Congress and the White House. These agitators are calling for Biden to curb crime but will not help him. They want more guns on the street but balk at the fact Blacks obtain them. It makes no sense.

So in closing, expect more.

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence. 

Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (Lifeline) at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or 988, or text the Crisis Text Line (text HELLO to 741741). Both services are free and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The deaf and hard of hearing can contact the Lifeline via TTY at 1-800-799-4889. All calls are confidential.

The call number to the U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official phone number, 202-224-3121. Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.

Rainbow Bridge Car Explosion!

Car crash at the U.S.-Canadian border.

On the U.S.-Canadian border, a vehicle crashed into an entry on the New York side. It sparked an evacuation and shut down four border crossings in the Buffalo-Niagara Falls metropolitan area.

The incident has not been ruled terrorism but of course, far right bigots are trying to spread misinformation and Islamophobia. 

CBP is working closely with @FBI, federal, state & local partners in response to a vehicle explosion at Rainbow Bridge which remains closed. Out of abundance of caution, CBP temporarily suspended inbound/outbound traffic at 3 other Buffalo crossings that have since reopened. pic.twitter.com/pTXyUsavRB

President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, Gov. Kathy Hochul, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) and Rep. Brian Higgins (D-NY) were notified.

Two people were killed in an explosion at the Canadian border when an "airborne" car crashed into a checkpoint at the Rainbow Bridge in Niagara Falls, New York, on Wednesday, officials said.

So far, there are no immediate signs of terrorism, Hochul told reporters.

"At this time, there is no indication of a terrorist attack," she said. "Let me repeat that: At this time, there is no indication of a terrorist-involved attack here at the Rainbow Bridge in Western New York.

The two people who were killed were in the car that crashed, and at least one of them was from western New York.

The car, which officials have said was traveling at a high rate of speed, was on the U.S. side of the border when it crashed, caught fire and exploded, contrary to some early reports that it had come from Canada.

Hochul said she has seen video of the car, which was going at an “extraordinarily high rate of speed” before it went flying in an “absolutely surreal” scene.

“When you see this video, your jaw will drop in disbelief at how this went so high, over an 8-foot-high fence,” she said.

Rickie Wilson, who works for Gray Line Tours, couldn't believe his eyes when he spotted the "airborne" vehicle. He said it appeared the car struck a cement median before it went flying.

"I first thought it was an airplane. Looked like slow motion," Wilson told NBC affiliate WHEC of Rochester. "And I said, 'My God, it's a car, and it's a vehicle, and it's flying through the air.'"

He estimated the car was 10 to 15 feet in the air.

"I mean, how did it get up there? I mean, this thing was up in the air," Wilson told reporters. "I know it sounds like I'm crazy, but the car was airborne, and not 3 or 4 feet — I mean, it was up there."

A Customs and Border Protection employee suffered minor injuries and was treated at and released from a hospital, a law enforcement official said. Hochul said that the employee was working in the booth and that “the booth literally protected that individual.”

“This vehicle basically incinerated,” Hochul said. “Nothing is left but the engine. The pieces are scattered over 13, 14 booths.”

An initial search didn’t find a secondary explosive or device, the law enforcement officials said, noting that was preliminary information.

Authorities are investigating whether the crash was intentional.

Hochul said at a news conference that the incident was “a horrific accident that led to a high-level anxiety all the way from western New York to Albany to Washington.”

It occurred on one of the busiest travel days in the U.S., when people across the country hit the road for the Thanksgiving holiday.

All western New York bridge crossings into the U.S. were shut down, the Erie County executive said shortly after the crash. Hochul later said all bridges had been reopened.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams said that security has been increased and that the "city is on heightened alert due to the upcoming holiday."

The White House was also closely monitoring the situation, an official said. The Canada Border Services Agency said it was "liaising with our U.S. counterparts on this matter."

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said that “at this time, there is no indication of a threat related to this incident" and that he has been in contact with Hochul and Canadian officials.

No Sherlock! 🕵️🔍

Republicans demanded more footage. It didn't go so well for Jan. 6 suspect.

Did you know that Mr. Nobody,  House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) did a request on behalf of the most insufferable lawmaker?

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is the most insufferable, laziest, most downright meanest and lack of accomplishment lawmaker in modern history begged the House Speaker to release the hours and hours of surveillance footage from the U.S. Capitol.

To make this clear: Greene and far right Republicans want the government to release more video footage of the incident that goes down in history as an attempt coup.

The Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol was an insurrection and it was sparked by the rhetoric of Washed Up 45 and his minions. The former president denies any involvement.

Just like the Osama bin Laden role in Sept. 11, 2001. The late al Qaeda leader denied involvement but later admitted his role. He was taken out in May 2011.

Washed Up 45 was indicted by the government for criminal acts in regard to Jan. 6.

A number of lawmakers are under investigation in regards to it. The government has not determined how far deep some are.

Anyway with the release of new footage, a man from Delphos, Ohio is indicted.

Matthew Honigford, 31, of Delphos, Ohio, is charged in a criminal complaint filed in the District of Columbia with multiple felony offenses, including two counts of assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers and one count of civil disorder. In addition to the felonies, Honigford is charged with several misdemeanor offenses, including entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, and disorderly conduct in a Capitol building or grounds. 

Honigford was arrested today in Ohio and will make his initial appearance in the Northern District of Ohio. 

According to court documents, body-worn camera footage taken from Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers depicts an individual, later identified as Honigford, assaulting law enforcement officers at the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6, 2021. Court documents state that at about 2:30 p.m. on January 6th, a crowd of rioters was assembled on the U.S. Capitol's Southwest Plaza exit wing. Here, law enforcement officers from the United States Capitol Police (USCP) and the MPD had formed a line as a barrier against the crowd. Rioters soon moved toward the police line, and law enforcement officers retreated and moved up the exit wing stairs. Rioters pursued the officers with Honigford at the front of the crowd. 

MPD body-worn camera footage shows Honigford holding a flagpole horizontally in front of his body with both hands. He then pushed the flagpole into an MPD officer’s chest area, and a struggle ensued. Honigford then advanced with the crowd of rioters to the Upper West Terrace, where a group had assembled on the steps in front of a barricaded police line. Honigford was again at the front of the crowd of rioters and encouraged others to move toward the police line by yelling, “Up!” and moving his hands in a gesture to bring people toward where he was standing.

Later, at approximately 2:46 p.m., rioters began to push against the metal police barriers, moving them. Honigford is then seen squatting, grabbing a barrier, and using it and his body weight to push against the police line. An officer then attempted to remove Honigford from his position, and Honigford kicked the barricade toward the officer. Simultaneously, other rioters began to break through the police line. After kicking the barrier, Honigford then attempted to follow the crowd through the breach in the police line. He then instructed other rioters to “pull it down” and carried one of the barriers into the crowd away from law enforcement. 

This case is being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia and the Department of Justice National Security Division’s Counterterrorism Section. Valuable assistance was provided by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Ohio.

The case is being investigated by the FBI’s Cleveland and Washington Field Offices, which identified Honigford as AFO (Assault on Federal Officer) #506 on its seeking information photos. Valuable assistance was provided by the U.S. Capitol Police and the Metropolitan Police Department.                                                                     

1In the 34 months since Jan. 6, 2021, more than 1,200 individuals have been charged in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to the breach of the U.S. Capitol, including more than 400 individuals charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement, a felony. The investigation remains ongoing.

No Turkey! 🦃

Luxury turkey has a Republican turkey gobbling.

 
Former Utah congressman turned into a Fox commentator claims that Bidenomics led to his turkey costing almost $120. But like all good internet sleuths, the folks saw right through this bullshit.

1. Premium turkey is not cheap.

2. He got a farm fed and raised turkey.

3. It has giblets and stuffing inside.

4. Not the average cost of a turkey.

While Softball Hannity is away spending time in Florida driving his daughter, son and Ainsley Earhardt crazy with his stupid Hillary Clinton obsession at the dinner table, his stand in, former Utah congressman Jason Chaffetz fills in.

Chaffetz does what most idiots do, post too much information.

While guest hosting that shitshow, he bemoaned about paying for an expensive turkey.

"We went to go buy a turkey today, it was $90 for a turkey!" Chaffetz said. "The price of stamps is up 32 percent in the last four years. But it's all a choice by Joe Biden, that's what Bidenomics is!"

Bird brain.

Recent figures from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) indicate an average cost of $1.25 per pound, 43 cents less than last year. While the total price varies by weight, the $90 turkey cited by Chaffetz would need to weigh a massive 72 pounds based on the average.

Chaffetz shows the world how much of an asshole he is.

Chaffet’z claim, social media users were also quick to express their shock and disbelief, though many were not as sympathetic as his colleagues on Fox News.

As usual, Thanksgiving is the gathering of family. Even that right wing crazy member.

إسرائيل تخطف الشاعر الفلسطيني مصعب أبو توحة!

Israel forcibly detains Palestinian poet.

Israel Snatches Palestinian Poet Mosab Abu Toha!

For those who don't know, Israel does control the media. I did not say Jews. 

Western journalists must accompany the Israeli Defence Force at all times and anything reported must get approval from Israeli officials before release. The journalists are not allowed to engage conversation with Palestinians. If they do, they could have their phones, notebooks and laptops seized. They could also be arrested by the Israeli Occupation Force if you are in the West Bank reporting on any criminal acts committed by the Israeli settlers. The U.S. continues to push the narrative, "Israel has the right to defend itself." 

Does Palestinians have a right to defend their land from occupiers?

The Israeli government is known for manipulating the narrative. Right now, the Israeli military has release an unrelenting attack on the Gaza Strip. They claim they are trying to destroy Hamas and limit civilian casualties. 

It is a lie.

They are launching attacks in the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria and pressuring U.S. lawmakers to punish protesters who are calling for a ceasefire.

The Israeli government is also kidnapping Palestinian civilians. 

Toha is a New Yorker poet and an acclaimed writer. Attorney Diana Buttu told The Washington Post on Monday that Toha was arrested by Israeli officials when he, along with his family, were attempting to evacuate southern Gaza. Toha was arrested at a checkpoint along with about 200 other people, Buttu said.

Toha recently returned to his home country after completing his graduate studies in the U.S., according to the Post. 

Colleagues of Toha said that the poet is currently being detained by Israeli authorities.

“It’s very scary,” writer Laura Albast, a friend and colleague of Toha, told the newspaper. “We don’t know where he is.”

Buttu also said that Toha has been in contact with the U.S. government in the past weeks in an effort to gain the approval to evacuate his family from the war-torn strip. 

One of Toha’s three children, Mostafa, 3, was born in the U.S. and is a U.S. citizen, the Post reported. 

In a statement to the Post, an Israel Defence Forces spokesperson said it is looking into the matter.

The ordeal comes as Toha, 30, gained acclaim in recent years for his work as a poet, having his work published in major publications such as The New Yorker and The New York Times. 

Toha, who founded an English-language library in the territory, was also named a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Awards earlier this year for his 2022 collection, “Things You May Find Hidden in My Ear: Poems from Gaza.”

The New Yorker, which published Toha’s first-person essay earlier this month about daily life in the besieged territory of Gaza, issued a statement in its daily newsletter calling for Toha’s safe return to the U.S., the Post noted. 

“The Palestinian poet @MosabAbuToha lives with his wife and three children in Gaza. Over the weekend, Israeli forces reportedly detained Abu Toha in central Gaza,” the publication wrote in a post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. “The New Yorker joins other organizations in calling for his safe return.”

It’s been a month since Hamas’s surprise attack against Israel, which resulted in the deaths of 1,200 people and the taking of around 240 hostages.

In response, Israel has launched a series of airstrikes and a ground invasion in Gaza, resulting in the death of at least 13,000 Palestinians, according to the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry.

Tis Thee Killing: Mass Shooting In Dayton!

Another mass shooting at a Walmart. This was in Dayton, Ohio.

Okay, the No. 1 problem in the United States happens again. What happens is we cover it for a few days, get reaction from President Joe Biden, a state governor or a mayor about the latest mass shooting in the country.

We talk about the weapon of choice for mass shootings. The calls for more gun reform grow only for Republicans and some Democrats to balk at it.

Republicans will say "Now it's not the time to talk about gun violence."

This is No. 691.

As usual, we come to another mass shooting in the United States. It hits close to home for me. It happened in Beavercreek, Ohio, an exburb in the Dayton metro area.

These murderers don't have mental illness. They are calculated and prepared. It happened to be a moment where they have the opportunity to take out lives. There's no sickness in the head. Most mass shooters legally obtain their assault rifles without little background checks. They have likely no criminal history and they are willing to use the assault weapon in the only thing it's good for: Killing numerous lives.

I dismiss this ridiculous notion that criminals are the problem, not the guns. Firearms are often obtained through legal purchases. 

The place: Walmart.

In 2014, Beavercreek Police shot and killed Jonathan Crawford without warning. On top of that, Crawford was holding a pellet gun.

President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Mike DeWine, Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) and Rep. Mike Carey (R-OH) will likely respond to the latest tragedy in America.

Police were called Monday night to a shooting with injuries at the Beavercreek Walmart.

The Beavercreek Police Department confirmed they responded to an active shooter at 3360 Pentagon Blvd. but said later Monday night on social media that the store “has been cleared and secured” with “no active threat at this time.”

There were at least three gunshot victims injured, according to reports. A CareFlight medical helicopter took flight around 9:50 p.m. for Miami Valley Hospital. The Greene County Coroner’s Office responded just before 10:30 p.m.

An employee reported hearing at least two shots but did not see anyone hit.

One witness said the shooter had a backpack and was holding a rifle, and that he walked by her before he opened fire, she said in a video posted on X, formerly Twitter, that was recorded outside the store.

Walmart issued the following statement Monday night:

“We’re heartbroken by what’s happened at our Beavercreek, Ohio, store. This remains a developing situation, and we’re working closely with investigators on the scene.”

The Beavercreek Walmart had a fire set by two juveniles prior to the mass shooting,

The company directed all questions to local law enforcement. Beavercreek police said they are investigating and will release information once it is available.

Wright State University students Kailie Conley and Anna Cowley watched and counted as between 30 and 40 cruisers with lights flashing pulled up outside Walmart.

“We were grabbing a bite nearby,” Conley said. “We were like ‘What’s going on?’

“The parking lot was flooded (with police cars),” she said. “There was police dogs that were running in, a bunch of cops running in … It was a lot, especially with how many how cops did show up.”

Walmart is a place where Wright State students, including the two young women, shop frequently. Cowley had been at Walmart earlier in the day.

“This is crazy thinking that literally less than five minutes away is where we live and where we stay every day, and that could happen at any time to us. Like they could have went to campus and not a Walmart,” Cowley said.

The two checked in with their friends at Wright State, all of whom were safe.

The university on Monday night issued a campuswide alert for students and staff to stay away from the Beavercreek Walmart for an “active incident.”

Law enforcement from multiple jurisdictions in Greene, Montgomery and Clark counties responded to the store, where police could be seen inside on the grocery side.

Again, having more security, teachers being armed and offering safe rooms are not solving the problem. The problem is lawmakers not willing to stop gun violence.

THE NICE GUY IS THE MOST DANGEROUS PERSON WITH A FIREARM. THOSE WHO ARE SPURN BY RELATIONSHIPS, THE WORKPLACE, SOCIETY IN GENERAL WILL SEEK REVENGE BY TAKING OUT LIVES. THEY WANT TO BE RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS OF MASSACRING THEIR FELLOW HUMAN BEING.

THE JUNK FOOD MEDIA AND POLITICIANS ADD FUEL TO THE FIRE BY AMPING UP POLARIZING RHETORIC. 

What to do to protect your life.

1. Run - If you hear sounds like firecrackers, popping sounds or suspicious activities around a large gathering (i.e. malls, stores, clubs, public gatherings), if you can flee, run away from the shooter. Do not run in a straight path of the sight. Move around and zig-zag if possible to keep yourself out the line of fire. It's best to not film a shooter commiting the act. If you are willing to risk your life for a viral video, more power to you but its best to stay out of the line of fire by running away.

2. Hide - If you are involved in an active shooting, you must barricade yourself in a room and keep doors locked, lights off, phones on silent. Do not go into restrooms, lockers and kitchens. Those are most likely places where shooters often go. If you can barricade a room to prevent a shooter from getting in, it eliminate the opportunity for the shooter to get through. Make sure you keep your voice low when you're involved in mass shooting. Call 9-1-1 if you can.

3. Fight - If you are willing to risk your life or willing to film the incident, you have no choice but to fight. Make sure you grab something that is powerful enough to disarm a shooter. Do not confront a shooter in the midst of sight. Make yourself not visible if you're trying to fight. Do not think being a "good guy with a gun" is going to stop a bad guy. The cops don't see good guys trying to stop bad guys. They see active shooters and they will shoot anyone who is armed regardless of the matter. If you're ready to fight, be prepared to die. It's best to not be easily seen if you're trying to stop a shooter. If you're a conceal carry and attempt to disarm an active shooter, you are willing to sacrifice your life to save lives. You are willing to go hero, you could die a hero or an idiot.

4. Realize - Mind you, that the types of firearms used by shooter are based on capacity which limits the time of reaction. As with rule 3, you have only less than a second to make a reaction when the shooter is set on sights. So there's no real solution to save your life in the event of an active shooter. The best thing to do is understand, that anywhere in the United States could be a target of a mass shooting. Congress isn't doing a damn thing about it.

Beavercreek cops arrive too late.

The far right often infiltrate protests and cause chaos to paint progressives protests as violent. Even when the far right attacked the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, they believed that far left members infiltrated the mob. Ignore the fact that Washed Up 45 and his allies urged the supporters to come, called for them to protest and told them to not show weakness.

According to the far right: White shooters are mentally ill. Black shooters are unrepentant criminals. Gay shooters are active groomers. Muslim shooters are terrorists. Hispanic and Asian shooters are illegal immigrants. Almost all mass shooters are registered Democrats because they have liked one thing common to the left. Of course, they often share disinformation by using the "Sam Hyde" meme as a way to denounce most mass shooters being white. They say a white person should "protect" from protesters and use of firearms are justified. They say if a shooter is active military or a veteran who supports conservative causes, they are considered a "heroes" and use of firearms are justified. If the shooters are teens, the far right automatically assume the gunmen are Black.

The Republicans usually amplify white victims. Anytime a person of color kills a white victim, it is often wall-to-wall coverage on Fox, Twitter and they force it into national news. They make the case to blame Black Lives Matter, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, Democrats, Rev. Al Sharpton and rap music for Black on whatever violence. Republican lawmakers who do not live in urban neighborhoods often troll social media to talk about gun violence or crime in Chicago, Baltimore, Milwaukee and New York City while not doing a damn thing to stop it. If a white person shoots a Black person, the shooter is given the benefit of doubt. White shooters are given glowing profiles about their perfect lives and how friends noticed something but refused to do something. When it comes to Black shooters, automatic vilification. They don't see mental illness. They see it as gang violence, allegedly fatherless homes, Democratic policies or the need for more firearms. The far right and Republicans exploit gun violence in the Black community for culture wars and racism.

Republicans solutions are more guns, blame others for America's social ills and defect from accepting reality.

You're not safe at home, in the school, the concert, the hospital, the church, the casino, the bus station, the subway, the light rail train, the buses, the malls, the local big box store, the political rally, the protest rally, the beach, the women's center for reproductive surgeries, the mosque, the synagogue, the road trip, the natural disasters, the state/federal buildings, the workplace, the gas station, the family picnic, the food truck rally, the funerals, the birthday parties, the graduations, the wedding, the televised events, the sporting events, the homeless shelter and many more events that have some terrorist with a firearm. Domestic violence, suicide, racism, culture war inspired, politically motivated and international operative inspired are types of gun violence.

Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of never ending tragedy. Gun violence, extremism and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how gun reform is taking away your rights to own firearms.

I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth.

When you hear folks say "gun rights," what they really mean is that its white privilege. This good guy with a gun nonsense has to end. The cops didn't do nothing when children were shot inside a school. A security guard was shot dead trying to protect shoppers. A cop accidentally shot his own. The good guy who tried to stop a bad guy is outgunned and a part of the rule #3.

Remember #3 means: The "good guy with a gun" better be prepared to die if they want to stop a shooter.

I don't want to hear folks say masks and vaccine mandates impede their freedoms. It prevents a deadly outbreak from spreading. If you want to die from the coronavirus, that's on you. We lost over 1 million people from the coronavirus.

I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. Cause a bullet does not have eyes and it's always likely gonna hit a target. These folks seem to not get it. These incidents are a tragic part of American history. Thoughts and prayers and your heart going out to the victims is not enough. It quite frankly is an insult. I am also tired of scapegoating Black on Black crime, Chicago, Baltimore and Democratic mayors for the nation's obsession to be numb to gun violence. You pretty much enable this nonsense by deflecting.

President Joe Biden is trying to curb gun violence. However, he has no support from Republicans. Most Democrats and America are for gun control measures. However one Democrat and one independent who caucuses with the Democrats in the Senate refuse to change the filibuster rules and its holding us back.

Beavercreek cop Sean Williams killed Jonathan Crawford III in the Beavercreek Walmart in 2014 after a white man made a prank call.

The National Rifle Association is always pushing against gun control. They will not relinquish from the narrative. These guns are not saving lives. The Republicans aided by a fickle junk food media are openly encouraging anarchy and disruption in a desperate attempt for the Republicans to win back Congress and the White House. These agitators are calling for Biden to curb crime but will not help him. They want more guns on the street but balk at the fact Blacks obtain them. It makes no sense.

So in closing, expect more.

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence. 

Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (Lifeline) at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or 988, or text the Crisis Text Line (text HELLO to 741741). Both services are free and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The deaf and hard of hearing can contact the Lifeline via TTY at 1-800-799-4889. All calls are confidential. Contact social media outlets directly if you are concerned about a friend’s social media updates or dial 911 in an emergency. Learn more on the Lifeline’s website or the Crisis Text Line’s website.

The call number to the U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official phone number, 202-224-3121. Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.

Birthday Boy!

Biden not stressing but his allies are.

Today, President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. turns 81 today. The 46th President of the United States is a healthy leader with a lot of stressful problems.

Right now he is polling at 43% and concerns over the latest issues has his reelection chances declining.

His age is also an issue to voters.

No surprise, Republicans have more concern about his age than Democrats. Almost 85% of Republicans are concerned about Biden's age. About 35% of Democrats are. That is concerning because Biden needs at least 85% of Democrats to come out and vote for him.

The Washington Post reports voter concerns are anchored in early survey data, which show Biden is weaker than he was four years ago. An October Fox News poll found 53 percent of Democratic primary voters would like to see the party nominate someone other than Biden. A 59 percent majority said they have an unfavorable view of Biden overall, up from 44 percent in the fall of 2019 and similar to the 56 percent who currently see Washed Up 45 in an unfavorable light.

The unexpected Israel-Gaza war has magnified fissures in the Democratic Party domestically, and Biden is also grappling with other challenges, from the ongoing debate of how to handle Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to inflation.

Democrats close to the campaign are also growing increasingly alarmed about its strategy — or, more specifically, what they worry is the lack of one, according to conversation with multiple people briefed on the operation.

Some argue that neither Biden nor his team have effectively communicated a reelection plan, a second-term governing vision or a clear argument against Washed Up 45. In response, the Biden camp’s public message has begun to shift in recent days, with far more aggressive attacks on Washed Up 45’s record on opposing abortion rights and on his second-term plans for immigration, including a massive expansion of deportations and a legal challenge to birthright citizenship.

“How many times in 2020 did you hear the president say, ‘Don’t compare me to the almighty — compare me to the alternative,’” former Obama senior adviser David Axelrod said. “Well, if I were them, I’d say, ‘Let the comparison begin,’ and push it on the contrast in values and policies and results that work for them.”

Others have expressed concern at the campaign’s polling strategy, which they say has been too limited as staff focus on measuring the effectiveness and reach of the campaign’s early advertising. Democrats briefed on the campaign operation said there are unanswered questions that could help guide a strategy — including how to effectively communicate about Biden’s weaknesses, such as his age and the economy. Biden advisers counters that more polling is being done than their critics know about.

The president and the First Lady, Dr. Jill Biden will be at the White House to hold the National Pardoning of the Turkeys.
