The Justice Department is investigating Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) for possible immigration fraud, VPOTUS JD Vance revealed to reporters at the White House. "I don't want to prejudge an investigation," JD Vance bleated to reporters at the White House. "It certainly seems like something fishy is there, but everybody's entitled to equal justice under the laws."

JD Vance Discussed This Several Weeks Ago

Out of spite that the ICC is issuing an international arrest warrant for him, Israeli Cabinet Minister Bezalel Smotrich ordered the demolition of the Khan al-Ahmar Bedouin village east of Jerusalem, which the international community has long sought to protect from callous Israeli destruction.

Bedouin Arabs, like the Druze, have been loyal to Israel since 1948

Former D/NCTC Joe Kent warned us about massive AIPAC foreign interference in US governance on the Young Turks TV show/podcast a few months ago.

Years ago House Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Israel) famously said "With you Mr President, all roads lead to Russia." [sic]

And how many roads lead to Tel Aviv?

So, dinosaur Democrats, keep pointing at the Kremlin and never at Israel whenever there's a discussion about foreign interference in US elections.

Not everyone is asleep.

And in Gaza, the IDF continues killing Palestinians two or three at a time every day. The death toll is now 72,822; 20,179 are children; 12,500 are women. Maimed or wounded: 172,707 Palestinians. As posted elsewhere, the nefarious IDF navy intercepted the Sumud humanitarian flotilla bringing food, hygiene products, pesticides, water purifiers, medicines, and mosquito nettings to the suffering Palestinians in Gaza.

Nota Bene: Bedouin Arabs have been loyally serving in the IDF since the creation of Israel, including the storied Desert Reconnaissance Battalion, like the three soldiers you see below. Now these Bedouin Arabs are feeling the Iron Heel of the Israeli right-wing and soon to be ICC-indicted war criminal Bezalel Smotrich.

Last century when I was a NYC college student and playing music on the side, I also worked as a security guard on a night shift. This was a great time to read and write papers. I also did my PT (push-ups and sit-ups and went up and down the stairs) because I was also a US Army Reservist and needed to stay fit.

One night, the HVAC maintenance fellow came upon me when I doing my PUs. An elderly fellow with a nice face and slight paunch, he said: "Not bad, son," checking out my form and crew-cut hair. (Yeah, this drummer had to cut his Flock of Seagulls tresses for Uncle Sam).

I gets up off the floor, knock the dust off and says "thanks" as I catch my breath.

"You want a hear an interesting story?" 'JR' asks me.

Being that it's the night shift and he's a good guy, I am all ears and not disinclined for company, so I heartily agree.

'JR' then proceeds to relate this story to me, as follows:

"Back in 1962, I was a paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division. One morning during a company formation, the commander put us all at ease and said some NCOs had an announcement for us.

I peered around the soldiers in front of me and saw three NCOs with shiny EIBs or CIBs, and jump wings and Ranger tabs, and wearing funny colored berets.

"Good morning! We are looking for volunteers. Special volunteers. If you speak another language, or are scuba-diver qualified, or practice a martial art, we have a challenging assignment for you!"

Heads turned left and right and whispers and mumbling of curiosity went through the company.

A hand here or there cautiously went up.

Then I thought, I just earned my Black Belt in Shotokan Karate, and that's what these NCOs in the strange-looking berets are looking for.

So, I put up my hand too.

After the formation, the handful of us who volunteered were then interviewed by these commandos.

Within a few days, I was one of the first Green Berets in the US Army."


AIPAC will throw their weight and money around in California too.

Guess who AIPAC-favorite Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is not endorsing in the race to succeed her?

Of course.

The non-AIPAC recipient.


We will hear the same bleating from the same sources about Saikat Chakrabarti (D): "He's too liberal," "he has no experience," "he's not even a real Democrat."

Blah-blah-blah.
