Senator Jon Ossoff criticized President Donald Trump's relationship with his aide Natalie Harp during a rally on Sunday, accusing him of preferring to "travel with Natalie" than performing his job. The Democratic Senator was discussing the duration of U.S. Navy sailors' deployments on aircraft carriers this year when he launched a sharp attack against Trump. "While the sailors on the Lincoln fight his war, while he fruitlessly drains our munitions and oil reserves, the president sleeps through his meetings," Ossoff said. "He golfs and trades stocks. See, he doesn't want to do the job; he wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie to their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar."


Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir publicly advocated for killing "30 to 40" people in Gaza each night. Ben-Gvir -- who can't wait to see young Palestinian convicts executed in Israeli Death Forces (IDF) concentration camps -- criticized the recent drawdown of homicidal airstrikes in Gaza. "It's no secret, I disagree with the prime minister," the blood-thirsty minister brayed. "I think targeted assassinations should be carried out in Gaza, taking down 30 to 40 every night. Not just those who pose an immediate threat -- here are people who are not worthy of life. They shouldn't live. They're not even people."

Itamar Ben-Gvir is obviously not a good human being


Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) stated he has heard "absolutely nothing back" from Sen. Mitch McConnell (R) after requesting updates on the senator's condition. Beshear says while he wishes McConnell "good health," the US senator should address the public directly: "His boss are the people of Kentucky."

On 14 August, North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un denounced the annual US-ROK military drill ("Ulchi Freedom Shield 2026") -- firing a test ICBM rocket into the sea as a sign of his displeasure on 12 August -" so, Dummkopf Trumpf bleated on 16 August the US will reduce future military cooperation with South Korea, citing Seoul's lack of support fighting Iran on behalf of Israel and Trumpf's "very good relationship with Kim Jong Un."

These annual drills are critical for integrating US C2 personnel with the ROK military

I want to talk about The Antichrist Who Shall Not Be Named.

And by that I mean channels such as mine who talk about the person who lines up with the biblical Antichrist are in my opinion being suppressed. I say that because despite repeated attempts to promote my videos, I keep getting the message that these are election advertising.

And I've been getting this message for over 5 years. This despite the fact that my videos are about Bible prophecy and the person who matches the biblical descriptions for the Antichrist described in those prophecies is not up for election anytime soon. Read more


A series of shootings in Michigan left five people plus a suspect dead Friday, police said, following an extensive search around two homes and a wooded area.

Is it a sitcom? Is it a Miami manosphere convention? No, it's Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate fanboys fighting for their freedom. A few blocks from the federal detention centre where the brothers are currently being held following their 18 July arrests, "Top G" loyalists gathered in Downtown Miami to demand their release, in a rather unique way. Footage soon surfaced online of a bunch of grown men (in 34-degree heat, mind you) dropping to the ground and doing push-ups as a form of protest. Ah yes, very Alpha. And if push-ups with questionable form weren't enough, they also came equipped with handwritten signs reading, "Thank you Andrew Tate for teaching us BRAVERY!" and "Tates are heroes"


It's hard enough to try not to remember

It's hard enough to know that its not over when its over
It's hard enough to think you know the reason
You make a list of things not to believe in It's hard enough to know your getting over that its over

Palestinians in the occupied West Bank village of Qusra have huddled inside their homes for days on end, unable to leave because of the threat posed by Israeli settlers. The Israeli military, which over the past three years has displayed staggering military and intelligence capabilities from Beirut to Tehran, has yet to fully remove the settlers from the area of the village, about an hour's drive from Tel Aviv.


NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani is not on the same page with the NYPD when it comes to a security detail for his wife during her upcoming Middle East trip ... because it's NOT happening.

The mayors of Minneapolis and St. Paul are proposing staff layoffs and significant property tax hikes in order address budget shortfalls in both cities. Those potential increases come at a time when frustrations about property taxes are at an all-time high in Minnesota. In Minneapolis, Mayor Jacob Frey proposed raising the city's property tax levy by 11.3% and cutting 100 city jobs as part of his 2027 budget address. The layoffs and tax increase would help tackle a $60 million budget shortfall the city is facing.


"Every day, the brave men and women of ICE work tirelessly to arrest and remove dangerous illegal aliens from our country," DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in a statement. "Just last week, we deported killers, drunk drivers, sexual assailants, and weapons traffickers. With deportations up, it's no wonder that crime rates have fallen to historic lows across the country. Thanks to the leadership of President Donald J. Trump, we are making America safe again."


When reporters in the Oval Office asked Dummkopf Trumpf about Democratic Party candidates in the midterm elections, the number one recipient of AIPAC money on the planet bleated: "We have jihadists being elected all over the place. We have this -- whether it's communism, jihadism."

In addition to MBS, Dummkopf Trumpf previously hosted former ISIS emir Ahmed al-Sharaa and NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) in the Oval Office
