Kamala Harris Embarrassed Herself During Hurricane Milton

Kamala Harris – Ventriloquist Fail

I do not have a high opinion of Kamala Harris, and I never have. I think she’s a dishonest, vapid, opportunistic cipher who, in any serious country, would be considered ineligible to run a Post Office, let alone to manage the executive branch of federal government. But I must confess that even I have been astonished by how badly Harris has screwed up during Hurricane Milton. Perhaps this is what inevitably happens when you’re accustomed to throwing any allegation you can think up out into the ether and watching the press turn it into a scandal that benefits you, but . . . well, really? Trying to take on the Governor of Florida during one of the worst hurricanes in recent memory? Even the mafia-esque Longshoremen’s union declined to do that.

DeSantis rips Harris again for butting into Milton response: ‘No role in this process’

How Feminism Makes Everyone Transgender And What To Do About It

Since the 1960s, cultural leaders in media, Hollywood, academia, and politics have fiercely criticized men for expressing male characteristics, and have fiercely criticized women for expressing female characteristics. This has led some commentators on the right more recently to lambast what they call the “overfeminization” of society.

But are we really experiencing a cultural “overfeminization?” It looks to me like, instead, we have a swap. We have feminization where there should be masculinity, and masculinization where there should be femininity. Our women are pushed to act like men, and our men to act like women, and the resulting social transgenderism makes everyone extremely unhappy, not to mention dysfunctional.

Both sexes are out of whack. We are all transgender now.

How Iran Uses Criminal Gangs in the West to Target Its Enemies

After setbacks in Lebanon and Gaza, Tehran is finding new ways to go after Israeli interests

Iran and its allies, battered by Israeli attacks and the killing of Hezbollah leaderHassan Nasrallah, are running out of options to strike back without risking a regional war that could set them back even further.

But there is one area where Western security agencies and experts fear Iran will try to hit Israel: by hiring criminal gangs in the West.

Iran has long used local militias to pursue its goals across the Middle East. In recent years, Tehran has exported that model to Europe, allying with drug lords and gangsters to go after Jewish or Israeli targets and other perceived opponents.

After ‘Gays Against Groomers’ stunt, Colorado halts honorary flag program

At first glance, the certificates looked inconspicuous, appearing similar to the hundreds granted under a Colorado program that allows private citizens, public officials and other groups to request honorary flags flown over the state Capitol.

But these two certificates, dated Oct. 1, led state officials to pause the more than 20-year-old program this week.

“The people of Colorado present this flag to Gays Against Groomers with thanks and recognition for all their work to protect children,” the certificates read.

They are on the right side.

What’s wrong with ‘demonising’ Hamas?

The Guardian has slammed a 7 October documentary for its depiction of the pogromists.

A new Channel 4 documentary about the events of 7 October lays bare the brutality that was meted out on Kibbutz Be’eri – one of the communities savaged by Hamas a year ago. Unsettling but important viewing, you might think. And yet the documentary has been criticised by the Guardian for ‘demonising Gazans’ – seemingly because it dared to depict Hamas’s horrors. The article has now been removed ‘pending review’.

Religious Freedom at Risk? Experts Warn of ‘Polite Persecution’ in the West

Expressing traditional beliefs on marriage and the family has become “the potential end of a political career or employment,” which presents “a serious threat to religious freedom” in the West, religious liberty experts were told at a Berlin conference.

The event, held alongside the Berlin Ministerial of the International Religious Freedom or Belief Alliance (IRFBA), focused on the difficulties that believers in traditional teachings on marriage, family, gender, and human nature face in Europe and North America.

The event, titled “FoRB and Tolerance for Tradition: The Challenge for the Pluralistic West,” drew speakers from Asia, America, and Europe.

MAiD doctor laughs after euthanizing 400 Canadians

Ghoul

Euthanasia Dr. Ellen Wiebe has offered an inside glimpse into the job she “loves” where she has ended the lives of more than 400 people through Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD).

In an interview included in a BBC documentary called Better off Dead by Liz Carr, a UK woman who is disabled and is worried state-sanctioned euthanasia could be legalized in her own country, Wiebe bragged “nobody is more grateful” than her patients and their families after refusing to shake Carr’s hand at the beginning of the interview.

Trump to propose making interest on car loans tax deductible

DETROIT/WASHINGTON, Oct 10 (Reuters) – Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on Thursday will propose making all interest on car loans fully tax-deductible and taking steps to prevent Chinese automakers from selling vehicles in the United States, according to excerpts of a speech seen by Reuters ahead of remarks in Detroit.

Trump will say at the Detroit Economic Club he plans to impose new tariffs to prevent Chinese automakers from building cars in Mexico and exporting them to the United States, part of an effort to appeal to autoworkers in the battleground state of Michigan.

Trump also will say he will formally notify Mexico and Canada of his intent to renegotiate a North American free trade deal to address concerns about Chinese vehicles, according to the prepared remarks. Vice President Kamala Harris has also said she plans to invoke the renegotiation provision if elected.

The reaction to this should be fun. h/t Mauser

Terry Newman: Mélanie Joly’s cowardice lets handful of Montreal voters drive Israel policy

An article by former NDP leader Thomas Mulcair this week suggested Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly is shaping Canada’s foreign policy to please a few thousand voters in her own Montreal riding, particularly as it would pertain to Israel. “Thomas, have you seen the demographics of my riding”? Joly asked Mulcair.

While the defining feature of our parliamentary system is that MPs represent constituents, pandering to them in such a role as Joly holds becomes an obvious dereliction of a higher duty, and an act of moral cowardice.

Mulcair notes that it “can’t be debated” that Joly’s positions on the Israel-Hamas war have been “utterly incomprehensible.”

I wouldn’t call it cowardice, it’s the sinister math needed to keep her seat.
