‘Utter stupidity’: Missouri Republican bids to bring back dueling for senators

A Missouri Republican’s proposal to reintroduce dueling to solve statehouse differences was branded “utter stupidity” by a leading historian of political violence.

“Back in the day,” Joanne B Freeman of Yale tweeted, “they were smart enough to take dueling OUTSIDE. The draft that I saw suggests doing it in the chamber. This doesn’t show guts or bravery or manhood – if it’s supposed to. It shows utter stupidity.”

Freeman is the author of The Field of Blood: Violence in Congress and the Road to Civil War.

Hamas releases disturbing new video showing three female Israeli hostages – including two teenagers – begging to be released from Gaza

Palestinian terror group Hamas has released a disturbing new video showing three young Israeli women held hostage in Gaza since the October 7 attack.

The three women have been identified as 19-year-old Daniella Gilboa, 19-year-old Karina Ariev, and 30-year-old Doron Steinbrecher.

This is the first time they have been seen alive since Hamas gunmen brutally kidnapped them on October 7 in the terror group’s assault into southern Israel, although the two younger captives were seen in footage released earlier this month that showed them on the day they were kidnapped.

Early on Feb. 12, 2023, at least three different flights over Quebec reported(opens in a new tab) “seeing very strange lights in the sky, high above the flight paths” that were “moving in a rapid and irregular way.”

“It looks like it’s more than one and sort of circling,” a crew member aboard a cargo flight from Chicago to Luxembourg told air traffic controllers in Canada, according to audio obtained by CTVNews.ca(opens in a new tab). “It’s a bit weird.”

Braid: Trudeau has blown his term with focus on obsessions, even losing moderates

In Montreal, the Trudeau Liberals found a few hours to talk about inflation and economic troubles.

About bloody time, although much too late.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his cabinet have frittered away nearly a term with their obsessions — firing out unrealistic emissions targets while rents and prices soar, nodding sagely at social extremism, registering barely a tic of discomfort while pro-Hamas demonstrators call for Canadians to be killed.

Wife of killer Kenneth Eugene Smith ‘cried out’ during his historic 22-minute-long nitrogen execution – which witness described as ‘horrific’

The wife of Kenneth Eugene Smith cried out for her killer husband as he thrashed against his restraints, suffering as he became the first person in history to be executed via nitrogen hypoxia.

Smith, 58, was put to death Thursday in a ‘horrific’ 22-minute ordeal when a gas mask was placed over his face, before a stream of 100 percent nitrogen gas suffocated him inside the execution chamber at the William C. Holman prison in Atmore, Alabama.

The murderer’s spiritual guide, Jeff Hood, described the execution as the ‘worst thing’ he had ever seen, claiming prison officials gasped in shock as he died far slower than anticipated.

Could ‘smart gun’ tech have stopped the Danforth Islamist terror attack? Smith & Wesson denies liability in $150 million Toronto lawsuit

Could ‘smart gun’ tech have stopped the Danforth mass shooting? Smith & Wesson denies liability in $150 million Toronto lawsuit

In 2000, U.S. gunmaker Smith & Wesson acknowledged the risks posed by lost and stolen guns and entered an agreement with the U.S. government to implement “safety and design” changes to its civilian handgun products — including mechanisms that could deter unauthorized use.

That never happened, and 18 years later, a man in Toronto armed with a stolen Smith & Wesson M&P40 handgun randomly shot two young people and injured 13 others in a mass shooting on Danforth Avenue.

This was a Muslim terror attack.

Gullible Americans are funding Hamas, not starving children

Editor’s Note: following release of our report today, this image of a knife-wielding student who recited martyrdom poetry was just deleted from the UNRWA Jordan Facebook group,which has 37,000 followers.

The images from the war Hamas launched against Israel on Oct. 7 have tugged at the heartstrings of Americans. By that, I don’t refer to the charred ruins of Israeli communities in southern Israel that were devastated by the Hamas pogroms. Nor do I refer to the horrifying evidence of that terrorist rampage of murder, rape, torture and kidnapping that is too graphic for most people to bear. As far as the international media is concerned, those victims were quickly forgotten almost as soon as the murder spree happened and then erased from the collective memories of the West. The pictures and videos of the Palestinians of Gaza, however, who have suffered as a result of the war started by the organization that most of them supported have been a staple of the corporate media’s coverage.

Note the pic is for illustrative reference it concerns an earlier UNWRA expose.

Gad Saad: It will take more than a few resignations to fix our woke universities

This year, I am celebrating my 30th year as a professor. During those three decades, I have witnessed the proliferation of several parasitic ideas that are fully decoupled from reality, common sense, reason, logic and science, which led to my 2020 book, “The Parasitic Mind: How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense.” As George Orwell famously noted, “There are some ideas so absurd that only an intellectual could believe them.” Each of these ideas were spawned on university campuses, originally in the humanities and the social sciences, but as I predicted long ago, they have infiltrated the natural sciences, and now can be found in all areas of our culture.

Obnoxious guy is taking legal action against World Aquatics because they won’t let him swim with girls

The US swimmer Lia Thomas, who rose to global prominence by becoming the first transgender athlete to win a NCAA college title, is taking legal action in a bid to compete again in elite female sport – including the Olympics.

Thomas has not swum since World Aquatics introduced new rules in 2022, which prohibit anyone who has undergone “any part of male puberty” from the female category. Before then, transgender women were able to compete if they lowered their testosterone levels.

U.S. Secretly Alerted Iran Ahead of Islamic State Terrorist Attack

WASHINGTON—The U.S. secretly warned Iran that Islamic State was preparing to carry out the terrorist attack early this month that killed more than 80 Iranians in a pair of coordinated suicide bombings, U.S. officials said.

The confidential alert came after the U.S. acquired intelligence that Islamic State’s affiliate in Afghanistan, ISIS-Khorasan, known as ISIS-K, was plotting to attack Iran, they said.

American officials said the information passed to Iran was specific enough about the location and sufficiently timely that it might have proved useful to Tehran in thwarting the attack on Jan. 3 or at least mitigating the casualty toll.
