I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about Jennica's choice of @PassagePress as the publisher, mainly because of the delay, but I knew her reasoning seemed sound. Some of you DM'd me and advised me to convince her to go with another publisher. Obviously, these people don't know her well bc I don't convince her to do anything! I occasionally "suggest." Thank you to @PassagePress For stepping up to the challenge! Check out their website. Very cool stuff in time for Christmas! Great kids' selection. passage.press

This looks like a pattern, and it's not a pattern that suggests El-Sayed has American interests foremost in mind.
Wayback Wednesday: America Took Out Al-Qaeda's #2, and El-Sayed Had the Sadz Geez, man. Wait until Abdul El-Sayed finds out what his weekend rally mate did to Anwar al-Awlaki! hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2026…

🚨 NOW: Sec. Marco Rubio just said it PERFECTLY in front of dozens of global officials on leftist terrorism "You are here because two weeks ago, a 72-year-old woman was BURNED on over 80% of her body in her own home, in Greece, and she died, executed by a fire bomb because her daughter dared to stand for office!" "Far-left political terrorism is NOT a recent day modern novelty. It is NOT a fiction manufactured by conservative politicians." "For most of the modern era, it was in fact the DOMINANT form of political violence." "You are here today because for five days this winter, the lights went out in Berlin. The longest blackout in the city since the Second World War sparked by an attack that left tens of thousands of households without power in the freezing cold and left an 83-year-old woman dead." "You are here and you came because a month after that Berlin blackout, a French 23-year-old succumbed to traumatic brain injuries beaten to death on the streets of Lyon by a group of far-left militant thugs." "You are here because your political leaders are being attacked and stabbed and shot in your streets — because your businesses have been bombed, because your railways have been sabotaged, because your police officers have been beaten and burned!"' "You are here because this is real and it is getting worse and it can no longer be denied and it can no longer be ignored because it is time to crush this evil forever!"

We obtained records EXPOSING several meetings involving senior officials in CA Attorney General Rob Bonta’s office, the ACLU, and Newsom-connected lawyers to rewrite a voter ID proposition. We’re taking action because California voters deserve to know how their government makes decisions that affect the ballot. Read more: aclj.pulse.ly/439fudglm0

This was as clear cut self defense as you can get but enemedia always hide the justification for Israeli action.
This is just beyond the pale. “Accused”??!! Here’s exactly what happened: terrorists murdered two Israeli soldiers in an ambush and the IDF swiftly neutralized the deadly threat. This reporting is so shameful (it’s done with intention), and this is not an isolated example. You must do better, @NBCNews.

The UN has said, repeatedly, that the number of miscarriages in Gaza went up by 300% since October 7. But when you try to trace back the source, you get nothing but other UN reports. I found the probable source. And it doesn't say what they claim, at all, and even that is suspect. Link follows.

Please take a few minutes and read this or bookmark this for reading later. It's the story of two Marines who survived the Beirut bombing on October 23, 1983. One of them crawled out of that rubble, past his fallen brothers, and years later came within seconds of taking his own life before a chaplain stopped him. They carried it in silence for decades. Now they're telling it so the next Marine doesn't have to. Getting help doesn't make you weak. If you're struggling, call 988. Somebody will pick up. We take care of our own.
I came across this right after the anniversary of Beirut. I personally know one of these men. He and my husband served together. I hope everyone has a chance to read it. medium.com/%40hanshan.usmc/a…

Important to note this piece of insight: nitter.gq/OptimisticCon/status/2…
It's very important to be aware that these folks are documented as making this attempt (to de-legitimize the 2026 election and paint anything Trump does about it as a high crime/misdemeanor, promoting a crisis of government). It's not speculation that they're doing this. The audit trail on them should inform all your thinking about whatever they can make happen. I have more to say about the way this is becoming evident. Comments to come shortly. Meanwhile, kudos as always for @DataRepublican's excellent work.

The birthplace of America, overrun with aliens who want to kill you. Listen to them.
This is Philadelphia, PA: "We will chop off their heads. We will lead the army of Allah. We will subject them to eternal torture. We will sacrifice our souls without hesitation." America needs to wake up.

JUST IN: El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele has launched a mission in Haiti to rescue four of its soldiers who were taken as hostages. The soldiers, who were working as aviation technicians as part of the United Nations mission to Haiti, were attacked on Sunday by a gang in the Santo area of Croix-des-Bouquets, a suburb of the capital of Port-au-Prince. The gang set the soldiers’ armored vehicle on fire. The Santo area, where the Salvadoran vehicle was targeted, is controlled by several gangs, including Chèn Méchan, Kraze Baryé, and 400 Mawozo. Bukele’s Warning “We have a single objective: to bring our four compatriots back home alive, without any harm,” Bukele wrote on X. “However, I want you, the gang leaders, to understand one thing very clearly: today’s attack is nothing compared to what is coming if we do not get all four hostages back alive.” “And do not take our word for empty threats,” Bukele said. “We have already finished with the gangs in El Salvador, and we can finish with you too.”

JUST IN: The law that prohibits the manufacture, sale, or transportation of automatic-opening knives is ruled unconstitutional. The Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found that the knives are protected arms under a plain reading of the Second Amendment, and that the Federal Switchblade Act (FSA) did not comport with U.S. history and tradition. The plaintiffs claimed the FSA violates their Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. They asked the court to find the law unconstitutional and to stop its enforcement. The District Court dismissed the case, and the plaintiffs appealed to the Fifth Circuit, which reversed the dismissal. Plaintiff Doug Ritter, chairman and founder of Knife Rights, said that the decision will ripple through the legal community. He said the ruling reinforces the understanding that the Second Amendment applies to more than just firearms. What is the FSA? The FSA, passed in 1958, did not outlaw switchblades, or automatically opening knives. Instead, it prohibited the interstate manufacture, transportation, and distribution of such knives. It also banned them on certain federal properties. So, the knives were legal under federal law, but they could not be manufactured or taken across state lines for sale.

I think they want us to be aware of it, DR. From an information-framing standpoint, everything is being rolled out on their terms. They occupy the key terrain of definitions and momentum.

It's not about awareness being the opposite of secrecy. It's about awareness reminding you not to take anything you hear from the legacy media at face value. Awareness IS crucial. The vast majority of people won't be and can't be involved in out-organizing the color revolutionsts. But they can all resist being anyone's Pavlovian dog, reacting on cultural cue to scripted stimuli. Start now by rejecting a priori the theme at the starting gate, which we're seeing break out at this very moment. Trump is not trying to interfere with the election, and nothing dragged before us to suggest "proof" of that is real or true. Mock it, laugh at it, if your brain works fast point out how absurd the claims are. They'll all be absurd. The more these claims are shoehorned into any and every political discussion, the more absurd they'll be.

Woman stabs Jew with syringe in midtown Manhattan. Scary
🚨 Mayor Mamdani this is on you. Another Jew stabbed in broad daylight in Midtown. A Lubavitcher from Crown Heights was attacked from behind near 5th Ave & W 47th St (5:30pm). Hatzalah treated him on scene; he’s stable at Bellevue. Suspect (white woman, 30s, 5’9”, blue jeans, white sneakers, dark sweater tied at waist) fled toward 6th Ave. Authorities are reportedly treating it as a suspected hate crime. This is not isolated. In July, Raul Morales was charged with hate-crime attempted murder after stabbing a Jewish man (and an Asian man) on the Upper West Side while yelling “Allahu Akbar” and “Justice for Islam,” near synagogues. Jews remain the top target of NYC hate crimes under Mayor Mamdani. How many more before the climate changes? crownheights.info/crime/9631…

In Japan, cosmos are called akizakura (秋桜)—“autumn cherry blossoms.” 🌸 Native to Mexico, they now color autumn parks across Japan, including Tokyo’s Showa Kinen Park. 🍃 A different kind of cherry blossom season is here. ✨
