Another interesting tidbit is that UNRWA also knew about the planned massacre.

True, but many are saying that they were bullied and threatened by the "Politburo" surrounding the President- his close knit cabal of advisors and family. Basically, the claim is that journalists were threatened with losing access to the President and the White House if they reported on his decline too often. So instead, Biden was given softball questons to answer instead of actual hard-hitting journalism. And now his cancer diagnosis is made pubic. Strangely, just days before a major book highlighting his declining health hits the bookshelves. Doctors interviewed on the subject say that Biden's form of cancer and advanced stage make it certain that this has been going on for many years, and that any physician would have picked it up immediately during a routine exam. Yet they hid the diagnosis from the public. Again, collusion. "We didn't want Trump to win, so it is OK if we artificially prop Biden up" is the excuse of the day.

True. There are at least 7 million able bodied men in the USA who are out of the workforce and basically just sitting on their collective ass all day. Given the right 'motivation', I am sure that many would jump at the chance to have gainful employment.

How about Egypt?

No politics. I wouldn't wish prostate cancer on my worst enemy. However, it is possible to recover with treatment and time. Hopefully the former President can live out his remaining years pain and cancer-free and enjoy the gift of his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Instead of just marching and virtue signalling, why dont they do something more useful? They can go to Gaza, live amongst the people, and volunteer their time/skills to help rebuild the territory. Or they can each volunteer to sponsor a Gazan in their homes. But no. Bitching at the government to "do something" is a lot easier and less personally costly.

Ya got it assbackwards. It was the rabbit that was waving to Biden. An Easter bunny to be exact. Waving to keep him from getting to close to people at an Easter event at the White House. But the bigger issues are these: which Democrats knew of Biden's mental decline and when, and who was running the country for the months when Biden was effectively incapacitated? If there has ever been a case for a President to be removed under the 25th Amendment of the Constitution, this was it. The media got some explainin' to do. THey claim to have been duped by Biden's inner circle and not known the truth. Yet at the same time they actively participated, in collusion with those same Democratic operatives, to cover up the issue of Biden's incapacity.

Same is true just about anywhere in the world. At least in the US, POC have hel about anywhere in the world. At least in the US, POC have held virtually

Someone is raping oranges in Thailand? I would have thought raping mangos would be more culturally appropriate.

So you are OK with keeping a permanent underclass of "wet backs" to pick your crops and clean your toilets? That is an incredibly bigoted and privileged attitude. "We need brown people to do the scut work for us". You ignore the fact that most ag workers in the US are NOT illegal immigrants. There is no industry or job category that is.

You may be right. There was a lot of anti-Conservative strategic voting that went on. You can tell by the raw popular vote numbers. The leftist NDP voters deserted their party to vote for Carney purely to block the Conservatives from winning. It doesn't bode well for the future. I am still waiting to see which version of Carney actually governs the country. FIngers crossed....

Make-believe tough guy and high school dropout lectures us on global economics. Nah. He is a great actor and talent, but he needs to stick to his lane.

I am trying very, sincerely hard to give PM Carney the benefit of the doubt. Waiting to see how he bahaves as PM before passing judgement. But he really needs to focus on Canada, not on what other countries are up to.

I like LineMan, they have a lot of bargains and coupons. But we always need two phones to use it. One for the app, and one to do a "camera translation" of the menu and specials.

I wouldn't call a 7% loss "free fall", just more catastrophizing from the media. In any case, it is a small price to pay for a safer country with fewer criminals and deadbeats running around. Especially if they are carrying laptops!

I dunno.... I still see the left as being more paranoid and judgmental. The ones who try to cancel and silence their opponents. Not just as far as MAGA but in general. Witness the efforts in France and Germany by governments to officially silence their political opponents. "Trump is Hitler" is far more common than "Biden is Stalin". Left leaning folks are more likely to end relationships/friendships over politics than those on the right.

I think the late, great Charles Krauthammer put it best; “To understand the workings of American politics, you have to understand this fundamental law: Conservatives think liberals are stupid. Liberals think conservatives are evil.”

You pick rather...unsympathetic... characters to bolster your case. Two whiny terrorist supporters. I invite the Democrats to use them as their poster children for the upcoming midterms! But any law enforcement activity will have exceptions and errors. That does not negate the necessity of the activity though. As for the border, Biden started trying to tighten things up only with the 2024 election looming. A craven and sad political ploy. It was open season for 3 years before that. Eliminating DEI does not encourage racism and discrimination. Rather, it eliminates it. If "diversity" were actually a strength for organizations, then canny businessmen would do it without being pressured by the government.

This is a LIE. If Biden had tried to kick anything, he would have fallen and broken a hip.

Nope. THe border is effectively closed. Almost no illegal crossings are happening. There was no need for a "comprehensive immigration reform bill" at all. Just needed a President with a set of cojones. Most of those being deported have already had "due process". They are under deportation and removal orders. As for DEI, it is itself discriminatory and racist. Just look to South Africa to see DEI in action.

In all honesty, this is perhaps the most important question of all. Biden was clearly not capable of running the government especially after 500pm. So just who was making the decisions? I suspect the good Doctor Jill was heavily involved- she was actually showing up at cabinet meetings in the latter days of the Presidency. It is all well and good for the media to suddenly rediscover their balls and start gently questioning various Democrats about what was going on, but it is about 2 years too late. And for Demcrats, the sad truth is that they not only sabotaged their country, they also gave Trump the election on a silver platter. That must be the most bitter pill of all for them to swallow.

It is a social contagion. Imagine the Megan Fox case- three kids and all trans. Now, assume the odds of being trans are 1 in 1000. That means the chance of having THREE trans kids are 1 in one billion. Obviously a case of contagion, or of abusive parenting.

Jake will be going on the Megyn Kelly Show sometime soon, maybe next Tuesday. It will be ineresting to hear her rip him a new a..hole. It will be at least an hour long, not a quick 7 minute hit like on most cable tv shows. It is astounding for so many so-called Journalists to NOW be all coming out of the woodwork and talking about Biden. The current narrative is that Biden's evil team in the White House tricked all the good and fair journalists and lied to them. Utter nonsense. Even us armchair quarterbacks at AN could clearly see how Biden was visibly deteriorating. And yet the press, actively supporting the White House, continued to gaslight the public. It was not a case of the press being lied to. It was a case of the press lying to cover up their candidate of choice. And now that the election is over, trying to resurrect their tarnished image.

Not confused, but the parallels are quite apparent. South Africa has descended into a chaotic mess. "Kill The Boer" and all that. I am amazed at how, now, the left suddenly is so demanding of vetting and qualifications for refugees. It didn't happen for the previous 10 million... Of course there are other deserving applicants. But that doesn't mean that the Boers are not in equal fear. These are people who I would welcome into my neighbourhood. Much like the Cubans who fled Castro and the Cambodians who fled Pol Pot.

Its too bad. The man is a brilliant actor, a once in a generation talent. Yet he takes himself waaaay too seriously and mixes up reality with his movie roles. Remember him trying to play "tough guy" talking about Trump, as if DeNiro were actually a mobster instead of just an actor? It is all going to his head.
