An indictment unsealed on Friday alleges that the three Iranian men gained access to the email account of a Trump campaign official this summer, which allowed them to steal debate-preparation material and information on possible vice presidential candidates. read more
RFK Jr. told a crowd of Trump faithfuls. After the clip was posted to X, commenters remembered Kennedy's zanier moments. A non-exhaustive list of these often animal-related oddities would include his admission that he dumped a dead bear in Central Park and framed a cyclist for it, the time his daughter said he cut off and absconded with the head of a dead whale, his denial that he barbecued and ate a dog, and when he revealed that doctors found a dead worm in his brain - not to mention the years he has spent peddling anti-vaccine conspiracy theories. read more

The chief political anchor of Fox News, Bret Baier, called GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump the "hold-up" preventing a debate on the channel between the former president and his Democrat opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris. read more
Tweet is about another indictment involving Iran. They seem to dislike us for some reason...
New details here: The IRGC hackers impersonated Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, to try to hack one former senior US official and other targets, according to the indictment and sources familiar with the matter: https://t.co/MkXkohNr9g https://t.co/zvQ6tc2sQl" Sean Lyngaas (@snlyngaas) September 27, 2024
Story updated with additional details. Of note: Indictment states that the IRGC-linked hackers were collecting information that could be used to avenge Soleimani's death, which tracks with what we know about Charming Kitten being kinetic ops-adjacent. https://t.co/MkXkohNr9g— Sean Lyngaas (@snlyngaas) September 27, 2024
So tacky. Gaudy watches were last century.

Yeah, sucks to be the Palestinians. That's the sort of thing that happens when conquered. As they should know since the Muslims have taken land belonging to others for quite some time now. en.wikipedia.org
Difference being that, for most of us, we take our lumps and move on with our lives. Find some place else to settle down and call home. ("Why Are Palestinians Still Living as Refugees 6 Decades Later?" www.historynewsnetwork.org (short answer, they are the only group in our existence that are perpetual refugees generations down the line. We could have a Palestinian president of the United States who was born here and he would still be a Palestinian refugee)).
Sounds like the Palestinians should have taken those peace deals they were offered five times in the last 90 years. ("How Palestine rejected offer to have its own state 5 times in the past" lawandsocietymagazine.com). Or maybe they should slaughter some more Jewish civilians twenty years from now and see if that works out better for them.
Welp then this is a war of terrorists versus terrorists.
Yes, both sides... Israel defending itself from terrorists who murdered 1,200 civilians in a war that they started is the same exact thing as Lebanon inserting itself into that war and launching thousands of rockets against at random for the express purpose of ???
But, hey, at least you almost admitted that HezzBawlzOff are terrorists, so that's some progress. Hamas next? A girl can dream, can't she?
With the backstory of one side simply taking land from the other side for the past half century because "god wants them to have it"

Muslim colonization. en.wikipedia.org Yes, I wonder which group of people to root for? I'll go for the ones that are least likely to murder me and everyone I care about because I don't believe in their god and superstitions.
Define terrorist - does it include slaughtering kids if their parents don't surrender their homes?

Welp, in this case I would define it as the fine folks who launched thousands of rockets at a neighboring nation, often targeting civilians for the sake of "terrorizing" them. Is that definition good enough for you?
How about the guy who murdered ~300 of our troops while they were acting as peacekeepers? drudge.com Someone that our own government offered $7 million for last year. Or that not terroristy enough for you?
Nothing new, only question is whether American voters will care that he's a crook this go-round.
