Last night, the Lord told me that he told Mike Johnson those things as a joke and that Moses was actually George Santos.

Oh, FFS. Stop, just stop with the narcissistic self-aggrandizement and spiritual hubris.

Heads should roll over this dismissal:

Leaked emails show veteran intel soldier warned that terror groups were training for major assault to start a war,' but her cautions were dismissed by senior officers as fantasy'

FTA:

A BBC investigation published Tuesday found that Hamas had been training for the mission for nearly three years and had published multiple explicit images and videos on social media.

The videos show Hamas training in mock Israeli communities, going room to room killing people, blowing their way through gates painted yellow like those in border kibbutzim, and taking civilians and soldiers hostage. One of the practice sites was less than a mile from the border with Israel.

I think this info doesn't include today's released hostages:

Israel said on Wednesday that about 160 hostages are still held in Gaza. Of those, 126 are men and 35 are women. Four are under the age of 18, and 10 over the age of 75.

It looks like Israel has detained a number of Palestinians since October 7, so they could use them in exchange for the Israeli hostages held by Hamas:

According to Mustafa Barghouti, a member of the Palestinian Legislative Council, there are 8,000 Palestinians in Israeli prisons, including 3,200 who have been arrested since Oct. 7. That number, he says, includes 250 Palestinian children and 2,200 inmates held without charge in administrative detention.

Data. Chain of custody. Forensics.

All of these work against the GOP in their investigation into Hunter Biden.

Hunter Biden asked me and my team coming on to assist his lawyers with forensics and open source analysis. I warned him we would work hard and could upset the apple cart.

He said, "I don't care what you find. We must know the truth."

Hunter's team can be confident.

Before his termination, Fisher was the leader of one BLM chapter:

In October and November 2023, comments by Mark Fisher, a former leader of a Black Lives Matter (BLM) chapter in Rhode Island, went viral in which he endorsed former U.S. President Donald Trump ahead of the presidential election of 2024.

Shot Palestinian Student's Family Thought He'd Be Safer in U.S.

The uncle of a Palestinian college student who was shot on a Vermont street over the weekend said Monday that his nephew left his home in the West Bank to seek safety in the U.S. as he studied.

Now, that uncle says his family feels "betrayed" after Kinnan Abdalhamid was nearly killed as he walked on a street in Burlington, Vermont, with two of his friends on Saturday night.

"Kinnan grew up in the West Bank and we always thought that that could be more of a risk in terms of his safety and sending him here would be, you know, the right decision," said Radi Tamimi. "We feel somehow betrayed in that decision here and, you know, we're just trying to come to terms with everything."

Families Speak Out After Palestinian Students Shot In Vermont While Taking A Walk

FTA:

Former President Donald Trump's attack on a judge's clerk on social media resulted in "hundreds of threatening and harassing voicemail messages" against her, appellate court documents revealed on Wednesday.

Attorneys for the New York State court system disclosed some of the threats that Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron and his law clerk Allison Greenfield have faced since Trump started attacking them both over the last several weeks on social media.

"I mean, honestly, you should be assassinated," a caller fumed in one of those voicemails, transcribed in court records made public on Wednesday. "You should be killed."

The threats against Greenfield, since Trump's initial posts, have been "transcribed into over 275 single spaced pages," according to the affidavit. Transcripts of some of these passages censor the frequent use of profanity and refer to them as "filthy little Jews."

Thank goodness Goldman didn't take a page from Trump's vermin playbook and say Trump needs to be exterminated. The difference between Goldman and Trump--and even Goldman and Tlaib--is that Goldman used the term once, admitted he made a mistake/misspoke and apologized for it.

#72 Right so you were lying in #63 when you blamed Hillary for not getting your vote.

#63 Nothing Hillary could have done would have gotten you to vote for her. Even Bernie telling you to vote for her didn't convince you.

People are responsible for their votes as well as their rhetoric. Voting for Jill Stein in Kansas is one thing. The constant anti-Hillary diatribes are another. Laura defends both to this day. So be it. I know some folks IRL, however, who followed the same path as Laura right up through election day but then regretted it mightily when Trump was elected.

Members of congress had to be evacuated. Sounds kinda insurrectiony to me.
So, we have one confirmed arrest. This person will probably be released without bail and all charges will be dropped.
If this crowd had been wearing red hats they all would have been arrested and charged.

There weren't too many (if any?) people arrested on January 6th. Just sayin.

From one of the article's authors:

Marshall Cohen

Three of Rudy Giuliani's top allies in Ukraine were implicated in a treason probe. Ukrainian authorities say their work with Giuliani--to spread disinformation about the Bidens during the 2020 campaign--was done at the direction of Russian intelligence.

But, but, but, those former intel official s had it all wrong about Hunter Biden's laptop, NOT:

MFA:

The statement did not name the lawmaker, but a source with the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) confirmed it was investigating Member of Parliament Oleksandr Dubinsky on suspicion of treason. The statement said the lawmaker "carried out information-subversive activities in favor of the Russian Federation" intended to destabilize and discredit Ukraine.

The SBU has also implicated two former Ukrainian officials in the pro-Russia scheme: ex-lawmaker Andrii Derkach and former prosecutor Kostiantyn Kulyk, who coordinated closely with Giuliani and other allies of former President Donald Trump to peddle false information about Biden and his family's dealings in Ukraine during the 2020 campaign.

The US government previously sanctioned Dubinsky, Derkach and Kulyk, accusing them of being affiliated with a "Russia-linked foreign influence network" that tried to interfere in the 2020 election in favor of Trump and to undermine Biden. That sanctions announcement came during the final weeks of the Trump administration.

When Giuliani went to Ukraine in 2019 to try to dig up dirt on then-candidate Biden and his son Hunter Biden, Dubinsky was one of the people he met with. Giuliani has also met with Derkach, who was featured prominently in a conspiracy-tinged documentary released by the right-wing network OAN about the Biden family's dealings in Ukraine.

For his part, Kulyk wrote a dossier of disinformation about the Bidens, including claims about Hunter Biden's role on the board of Burisma, a major Ukrainian energy company. Kulyk also gave interviews to pro-Trump journalists and hired former Trump lawyers to help him spread his message to US officials during Trump's first impeachment.

"Remember when Trump made his Cabinet start the meeting by saying something nice about Trump?"

God, I had forgotten that. It was disgusting, pathetic and painful to watch all those grown men, and they were mostly men, groveling and kissing Trump's diapered rump.

No surprise either because Manchin, who polls say would likely have lost his re-election bid, still had the best chance of any Democrat to hold the seat.

I should add that anyone reading this will who is not themselves stupid, insane and/or a traitor will inevitably come to the conclusion that Trump is stupid, insane and/or a traitor.

Anyone who reads this report and still thinks Donald Trump should be re-elected president is either stupid, insane and/or a traitor to this country. Everyone else who votes Republican and reads this story should do their damnedest to make sure Trump is not the GOP nominee:

The January 6 Committee's investigation unearthed the extraordinary story of what happened next"but the information didn't make it into any of the committee's hearings or its final report. What follows is based on the sworn testimony of the key players, including McEntee and Macgregor, as well as National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien and General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

*a statement

Here's part of a state Tlaib released after being censured:

"I have repeatedly denounced the horrific targeting and killing of civilians by Hamas and the Israeli government, and have mourned the Israeli and Palestinian lives lost.

"Meanwhile, each day that passes without a ceasefire brings more death and destruction upon innocent civilians, who have nowhere safe to go, drawing outrage and condemnation from the American people and the international community. A majority of Americans support a ceasefire, but this Congress isn't listening to their voices. I will continue to call for a mutual ceasefire, for the release of hostages and those arbitrarily detained, for the immediate delivery of humanitarian aid, and for every American to be brought home. I will continue to work for a just and lasting peace that upholds the human rights and dignity of all people, centers peaceful coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians, and ensures that no person, no child has to suffer or live in fear of violence."

Democrats run around telling people they need to use a person's preferred pronouns so as not to offend anyone,
What a weird analogy to make.
Transgender and non binary rights have what to do with this?
Also. It's more about respecting the person you're communicating with rather than attempting not to offend.
I call people by the name and pronoun of their choice. Because I respect them. Not because I'm worried about offending them.

You do understand the analogy, and you've made my point better than I did. It is disrespectful (and offensive) to refer to someone by not using the name and pronouns of their choosing. It is also disrespectful (and offensive) to refer to Jewish people using terms they find anti-Semitic. It is likewise disrespectful (and offensive) to refer to all Palestinians as terrorists and Hamas.
