Israelis not Causing any Shortages in Gaza?

1/ I’m back from a short trip on a social network with photographs and videos from Gaza, with some brief personal conclusions. First, it is quite clear that there are those in Gaza who know how to make extensive use of the networks and social media for the purposes of emotional extortion and also false propaganda, exactly like they live streamed the October 7 massacre and somehow turned it into “justified resistance”, they use quite a few Western buzzwords such as “genocide”, “occupation”, “oppression” and “Zionism”- and this is the simplest way to distinguish between Hamas propaganda posts and authentic people in Gaza, whom I’ve known all my life, who use much simpler words and not this indoctrinated manipulation bullshit.

 

I was looking for THESE authentic people - the real voices. And I think I found a few. So first of all, what do I think there is NOT happening in Gaza? There is no genocide and no famine.

Yes, there is quite a lot of suffering, shortages in some places and lack of decent shelter etc. And there’s a lot of cynical exploitation of it for propaganda purposes. I’m saying it because you can see children are getting payed for it, you can see the absolute control of distribution and you can see how basic needs and the way out is blocked with money- Israel is not taking money for any of it, the West is sending free aid, so the money is demanded by those who want to control the suffering and use it.

 

You should know, that before the war - there was already quite a lot of very poor population in Gaza, but now the economic difficulty has greatly increased for two main reasons: one, the war damaged many sources of livelihood and the second - a major source of livelihood was working in Israel and this option was closed for a long time now, since October 7, and is now much less operational. So, in fact the main source of income is donations and funding from Hamas for control purposes of course. This is how, among other things, Hamas uses the population to "work for them", and also to smile or cry for the cameras on demand.

 

Now on the issue of claimed famine- famine is when there’s NO food and water, enough for the population. As I said, my personal conclusion is that there is no shortage of food and water in Gaza at all. The problem is that the food is not distributed equally, it is controlled by those who are powerful (usually Hamas operatives) and then sold at high costs to the population without them having sources of livelihood. Food that should be distributed for #free is actually sold at a high price, the shelter tents are also paid for and the exit from Gaza is particularly expensive (5000$ that are paid to the transporters). There are quite a few who refer to Gaza as a "prison" but Gaza is not a prison, Hamas has simply created a situation where it is very expensive to leave it - and thus the poor and the new poor are completely dependent on Hamas and other clans (Hamulas) in everything to do with food, shelter and exit, and they play with them as pawns. If Gaza is a prison - then it’s because Hamas is imprisoning it.

 

All the suffering in Gaza started because of #Hamas it continues and increases because of #Hamas, but the main point is that #Hamas is also the one factor that can stop it. If Hamas surrendered unconditionally and released the Israeli hostages, as done in any war in which you are forced to admit defeat - they would truly liberate Palestine. Remember- this is a war that #Hamas started, a war that on Oct. 7 was celebrated in the streets of Gaza. But #Hamas prefers to keep the Palestinians captive so that it can showcase suffering (which they create) and use it as a tool for financial donations, manipulation of the West and a messianic jihadist war that will never end for them. If the West doesn’t wake up to this ongoing manipulation- they will never help the Palestinians in Gaza or in general, and they will bring this jihadist chaos to their doorstep.

Vitamin D:

Deficiencies, Benefits, & Health Canada's Suppression:

An in-depth expose with Dr James Lunney DC chiropractor, five-time elected MP, health and vitamin D advocate

 

Almost everyone is vitamin D deficient most of the time. Vitamin D functions not only in bone health but also in immune system communication and operation. Robust vitamin D supplementation is affordable and dramatically reduces health afflictions, from infections to cancer and chronic diseases.

 

Here's the profound testimony and extensive evidence from Dr. James Lunney, DC, former MP, and medical expert who served decades in the Canadian federal government. It's a story of a safe, affordable nutrient, great Canadian scientists, and tragic acts by Health Canada officials who ignored and buried irrefutable evidence, keeping Canadians uninformed, sick, and dying prematurely while promoting toxic pharmaceuticals at a significant cost.

How Catholics see and saw the Rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem:

It's interesting to note that Catholics over the last 2,000 years have not said that the temple in Jerusalem MUST be built before Jesus can return.  Compare that to many Protestant leaders today who say it must be built.  If they are that convinced, why don't they just say it WILL be rebuilt?  "Must" carries with it the connotation that we must help rebuild it, which would be a grave sin in the eyes of the Church fathers and saints.

PS - I've copied and pasted some parts of the above article below.

 

It is therefore incomprehensible to see self-proclaimed Christians working for the restoration of this Temple, through their assistance with the red heifers and other means. Despite the best of intentions, this constitutes a denial that Christ has come in the flesh and fulfilled the law. 

 

We will see more about what this means for the religion of the Antichrist in the next part.  

But to close this part, it is fitting, given the links between the possible rebuilding of the Temple and the accompanying denial of Christ, that this is exactly what St. John says of Antichrist:  


For many seducers are gone out into the world who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a seducer and an antichrist. (2 John 1.7)

Although not conclusive, one reason to think that the Temple will not be rebuilt is that previous attempts have all failed. Fr. E. Sylvester Berry gives the following text from the historian Ammianus Marcellinus, who was himself a soldier under Julian the Apostate:  


Julian the Apostate attempted to rebuild the temple in the fourth century but the undertaking was frustrated in a miraculous manner.  

The place was made inaccessible by fearful balls of fire that broke out near the foundations and so scorched and burned the workmen that they were forced to retire. The frequent attacks finally caused the work to be abandoned.”[4]

Pro-Vaxxer Left Speechless as Dr. McCullough Drops the Disturbing Truth About the COVID Shots:

Dr. Peter McCullough masterfully demonstrates how to debate COVID-19 vaccine safety with grace.

Renowned cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough proved once again that he can cite the science quite like no one else after going into enemy territory and emerging victorious.

 

Recently, on the Occupy Democrats Network, Dr. McCullough told podcaster Brian Shapiro, “You are wrong” to his face about the COVID-19 injections.

Shapiro claimed, “You are... far less likely to get the effects of having to go into the ICU or possibly dying if you were vaccinated.” “Am I wrong?” he asked.

“Yeah, you’re wrong,” replied Dr. McCullough. “And here’s the reason why.”

“Yeah, you’re wrong,” replied Dr. McCullough. “And here’s the reason why.”

 

Statements made in this VIDEO... [Excellent PRESENTATION]

• “The prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials of the vaccines never showed a reduction in severity.”

• “They never showed a reduction in hospitalization and death.”

• “In a recent paper by Norman Fenton from the UK, he shown that there was tremendous misclassification bias.” This misclassification bias led to the false claim that 90% of people dying in the hospital were unvaccinated.

• “In countries that actually did have the vaccine status, like the UK, they found far more vaccinated in the hospital on ventilators and dying than the unvaccinated.”

• “With every single injection, one is more and more likely to get COVID-19.”

• “Our safety system for vaccines records, on average, 150 deaths in a year on average. The COVID-19 vaccines roll out... 18,655 Americans dying after the vaccine. 1150 die on the same day they take the shot! Some die in the vaccine center. 1200 die the next day.”

• 18,655 Americans dying after the vaccine doesn’t account for the underreporting factor of 30. “We’re looking, as we sit here today, at 550,000 plus Americans who have died after the vaccine. The same pattern is seen worldwide.”

 

Dr. McCullough ended with this statement:

“There are calls to pull these vaccines off the market. They’re so grossly unsafe because people die quickly after taking them.

The Need for More Public Discourse

Infowars reporter Kelen McBreen writes, “This is the type of conversation needed to awaken those who are still open to listening.”

I must say that I agree. Dr. McCullough handled the situation with masterful debating skills and grace. I hope more people on the other side of the issue find themselves willing to engage in discussion with Dr. Peter McCullough.

Nigeria et al:

Pray for them...

The endeavor to establish an Islamic caliphate in Africa and destroy Christianity there is well underway. But it doesn’t fit the establishment media narrative, and so it gets little or no attention.

 

JOHANNESBURG — Christianity is in deadly crisis in more than half of Africa’s 54 countries, sources say. Christian groups contacted by Fox News Digital say the faithful are being persecuted, killed and displaced in 28 countries on the continent.

The situation is the worst in Nigeria. Mission group Open Doors US told Fox News Digital its research reports that “nine out of 10 Christians killed for their faith in 2023 were in Nigeria. However, this number is likely higher, as many deaths go unreported.”

“Nigeria is one of the deadliest places on earth to be a Christian,” Ryan Brown, Open Doors US CEO, told Fox News Digital. “Of the nearly 5,000 Christians killed for their faith in 2023 worldwide, a staggering 82% of them were in Nigeria.”

 

The Nigerian research group Intersociety, the International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law, calls the killing of Nigeria’s Christians genocide and puts the death toll higher, claiming over 8,000 Nigerian Christians were killed or abducted from January 2023 to the end of January 2024. Most of them were reportedly savagely hacked to death with knives. Intersociety says over 18,500 places of Christian worship were destroyed across Nigeria from 2009-2023.

And this slaughter is continuing, Intersociety’s Emeka Umeagbalasi told Fox News Digital.

“(An) estimated 500-600 Christians are believed to have been hacked to death for professing to be Christians in Nigeria, covering January to the first week of April 2024,” Umeagbalasi said. “They are being killed, raped and displaced, and their homes and, sometimes, churches burnt. In some occasions, they are forced, under pain of death, to publicly change their religion to Islam.”

“With the rise of radical Islam in Africa, there is a definite increase in the targeting and persecution of Christians,” Todd Nettleton, host of the Voice of the Martyrs Radio Network told Fox News Digital. He added that these attacks come in a wide range, from “well-known groups like Boko Haram in Nigeria and al-Shabaab in Somalia, to less-well-known but equally violent groups in northern Mozambique, Democratic Republic of Congo and other nations.

“Currently, there are 28 countries on the African continent listed on the Open Doors’ US 2024 World Watch List, nations where Christians routinely face oppression, harassment and violence because of their faith in Christ.”

 

Despite an estimated 46% of the population being Christian, Nigerian Christians are often ripped from their homes too, with Brown of Open Doors US reporting that “of the 34.5 million displaced people across sub-Saharan Africa due to political instability, conflict and extremism, an estimated 16.2 million are Christians.”

Brown added, “As Fulani militant (Islamist) herdsmen wish to claim land in the middle of Nigeria, where there is the best grazing, they attack Christian villages, kidnap their people, burn their homes and destroy their crops, claiming the land for themselves.”

 

Persecution in Nigeria is not new. Boko Haram Muslim militants kidnapped Maryamu Joseph when she was just 7 years old. She managed to escape nine years later, telling the Aid to the Church In Need (ACN) agency, “I suffered so much at the hands of these heartless, ruthless people. They put the Christians in cages, like animals. The first thing they did was forcefully convert us to Islam. They changed my name to Aisha, a Muslim name, and warned us not to pray as Christians, or we would be killed.”

Catholic teacher Emmanuel Joseph witnessed a recent attack on a Catholic and a Baptist Church in Rubuh, in Nigeria’s Kaduna State.

“Mass had just started when we heard guns firing. Parishioners started running everywhere,” Joseph said. “Coming into the church compound, they shot three members who had left the church. They also attacked the local Baptist church and abducted 36 members of the congregation, mostly women, and killed a man there also. We are only focused on how to stay alive, looking upon God for safety in the belief that He will fight back for us.”

“Religious persecution in the north is systemic,” Matthew Man-Oso Ndagoso, the archbishop of Nigeria’s Kaduna State claimed, “I cannot build a church, yet the government employs and pays imams to teach in schools. Every year they have money to build mosques in the budget but will not let you build churches”.

 

Reports of persecution continue to flood in from the Sahel region — Chad, Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso. The latter country’s bishop, Justin Kientega, told ACN parts of his diocese have become no-go areas as jihadists work to impose radical Islam on the population.

“The terrorists gather people and tell them not to go to school,” he said. “They instruct men to grow out their beards and women to wear the Islamic veil.”

 

In Sudan, Brown of Open Doors US said, there’s more persecution of Christians.

“There have been 165 churches closed,” Brown said. “Others have been attacked and destroyed. We see in Sudan and so many other places that those who oppose the Christian faith will use these volatile situations as an opportunity to lash out against our brothers and sisters. As we pray for an end to the violence, we remember these brave men and women and pray for their protection as they continue to risk so much.”…

This Teen Girl received one Spine-Chilling Lesson for asking a question, Joe Biden hates:

Americans have witnessed a surge in woke reprisals during Joe Biden’s first term.

The speech police commit atrocities that leave level-headed Americans fuming daily.

But this teen girl received one spine-chilling lesson for asking a question, Joe Biden hates.

 

Silencing the truth

Illegal alien immigration into the United States has become arguably the most important issue in American politics.

Instead of doing something to stop it, Joe Biden and the Democrats have chosen to shut people up who want border security.

 

For example, 16-year-old Christian McGhee was suspended from his North Carolina high school for three days for using the term “illegal alien” in class.

Teen booted from school for daring to use one truthful term about Biden’s border crisis

 

The Carolina Journal reported that McGhee “was suspended for three days for using the term ‘illegal alien’ in class when clarifying the word ‘alien’ in a vocabulary lesson. A classmate reportedly threatened to fight Christian over his word choice, but both students and their teacher insisted the exchange was innocent, and the other student’s outrage was in jest.”

 

McGhee asked if the term “alien” in an assignment referred to “space aliens” or “illegal aliens without green cards.”

In response to the suspension, Christian’s mom, Leah, said, “If this was handled properly in the classroom, it could’ve easily been used as a teachable moment for everyone. . .Our family feels that suspension and a label of racism is an extreme in this case. I feel that the negligence of the administration’s decision fueled the injustice to a student who simply asked for clarification from a teacher.”

 

“Woke” administrators have tried to suggest that Christian’s statement was somehow racist toward Latinos.

He explained, “I wasn’t speaking of Hispanics because everyone from other countries needs green cards, and the term ‘illegal alien’ is an actual term that I hear on the news and can find in the dictionary.”

 

Word games

This is where the Left’s word policing enters the conversation.

They have attempted to make the term illegal alien beyond the pale, opting for “undocumented” or “migrant” or “new arrival.”

 

They did the same with the term “pro-life.”

Leah McGahee said on a local radio show, “We are blown away by the people who have reached out in support and to cover this story. . .We’ve prayed about it and feel like we need an attorney to help us navigate this process, as we’ve never been in a situation like this. The label of racism in today’s world is so strong that I feel like we do not need to tackle this giant on our own.”

 

The school’s smear job of McGahee could greatly affect his college prospects and potential athletic scholarships, as he is a track and field athlete.

People on the Right cannot cede any more linguistic ground to the Left.

The Unmuzzled News


 

Joe Biden accused of treason for this insane U.S. military announcement:

The American military is in shambles. The White House has had a direct hand in this.

And now Joe Biden’s being accused of treason for this truly insane U.S. military announcement.

According to military authorities, if a service member refuses to use another service member’s “preferred” pronouns, the military may attempt to explicitly reprimand them.

 

According to Capt. Thomas Wheatley, an adjunct instructor at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, an Equal Opportunity law passed in 2020 allows officers to charge someone with harassment under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) if they refuse to affirm a transgender soldier’s self-described gender identity. Although a service member’s constitutional right to protect their conscience would probably be violated by such a move, it might not stop superiors from using more covert methods of discipline.

Some experts in the military anonymously shared with news outlets that Congress ought to intervene before it is too late.

 

The federal government “is right to want to protect the rights and welfare of its transgender service members. But it owes the same protection to those who share a different perspective on the issue, especially when that perspective is a deep-seated expression of personal conscience,” Captain Thomas Wheatley said on the matter in a press release.

According to Wheatley, there is no express prohibition against “misgendering” in the military, which refers to the usage of pronouns that do not accurately reflect a transgender individual’s new gender identity. However, current guidance suggests that it breaks Military Equal Opportunity (MEO) standards against s*x-based discrimination and harassment to use pronouns that have been rejected by another individual.

 

These rules are enforced by the UCMJ.

According to Wheatley, service members may face court-martialing if they “refuse to use another person’s self-identified pronouns, even when their refusal stems from principled religious conviction. This law applies to service members at all times and in all locations, even when they’re off duty and in the privacy of their off-post residence.”

“Is it now ‘unbecoming’ and incompatible with service as a commissioned officer to openly hold sincere religious convictions surrounding the act of creation and the nature of human s*x?” Wheatley asked on the UCMJ “disciplinary” efforts.

 

When the Army revised its MEO policy four years ago, noting that “violations of MEO and Harassment Prevention and Response policies may result in disciplinary action under the UCMJ,” Wheatley said it piqued his interest in the subject.

 

Wheatley expressed concern about the potential for a service member to face criminal charges for allegedly harassing another member if that individual was “misgendered.” In Bostock v. Clayton County, the Supreme Court recently decided in favor of the plaintiffs who were transgender and claimed their employers had fired them because of their self-identified gender identity or s*xual preference. The case, as cautioned by conservative justices, may have far-reaching effects on businesses that support the free expression of religion in the workplace and religious beliefs.

“I knew, given the cultural gap between the civilian world and the military, the issue would be overlooked as it concerned service members. So, I got to work,” Mr. Wheatley shared with journalists.

Despite the current EO policy, Wheatley contended in a peer-reviewed study published recently in the Texas Review of Law and Politics that Articles 133 and 134 of the UCMJ are insufficiently robust to charge troops for rejecting another person’s choice of pronouns.

 

That would typically be the end of the investigation under a legal theory that “obligates military courts to avoid interpreting the UCMJ in a way that brings it into conflict with the Constitution,” he wrote. However, the inherent national security requirements of military duty frequently serve as justification for restricting a servicemember’s constitutional rights; one such example is Article 134 on the issue of “indecent language.”


In response, Wheatley argued in the paper that while the military’s unique role can guide judicial consideration, a distinct norm is not necessary.

“A court that applies a standard lower than strict scrutiny would be placing not just a thumb on the scale in the government’s favor, but an anvil — one which virtually guarantees victory for the government in every case where a service member asserts his or her First Amendment rights,” Wheatley penned on the matter.

He added that there are definitely crucial arguments to be taken into consideration, such as maintaining peace within military units and protecting the mental and emotional health of transgender troops. However, the latter ignores the health of the service member attempting to follow their religious convictions, while the former depends too much on the vagaries of individual interpretation to withstand court review.

 

According to Wheatley, the Army policy’s “sweeping prior restraints on speech” are not justified by the compelling government objectives of “preserving unit cohesion and safeguarding the mental and emotional health of transgender service members.”

He concluded that prior case law demonstrates that the bar for what constitutes forbidden coerced speech is high, especially in military settings.

 

He also found no compelling reason to require the use of pronouns in speech, looking instead to past instances of public employment law restricting speech where free speech has been contested more frequently than in case law pertaining to the military.

According to Wheatley, a person’s use of pronouns “reflects the speaker’s private views on human s*x and gender” and is independent of their profession.

50,000 Mosques have Closed in Iran - Are Iranians Seeking Truth Outside of Islam?

- All Arab News:

Unrest and distrust of the Islamic government are leading many away from Islam; Evangelical broadcasts and ministries are leading many to Christ Mohammad Abolghassem Doulabi, a senior cleric for Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, delivered a speech to a group of religious students in which he stated that 50,000 of Iran’s 75,000 mosques have closed their doors.

 

In his speech, which took place last June during the celebration of Imam Reza – a descendant of the Muslim prophet Muhammad – Doulabi primarily laid the blame for the mosque closures on a lack of government funding. However, he also indicated that Muslims were deserting mosques for other reasons.

Contrary to the situation in some European countries, where church buildings and programs are funded by state taxes, mosques in Iran are run more similarly to churches in the United States; they are tax-exempt, non-profit institutions primarily supported through donations or trusts.

 

While many mosques receive government funding, in addition to private funding, the government is not the primary supporter nor does it have the authority to close mosques.

Doulabi blamed the devaluation of the Iranian currency and a lack of direct government support for the closures.

Some scholars, however, were not quite as quick to agree. Mohammad Taghi Fazel Meybodi, a cleric and a member of the Assembly of Scholars and Teachers of the Seminary of Qom, believes the type of government support is one source of the problem.

 

“If the government did not support mosques and interfere in the affairs of mosques, our mosques would probably not be emptied today,” Meybodi said.

He also cited the politicization of mosques and preaching as part of the problem.

“One of the reasons for closing mosques is that mosques today have become the base of certain factions and politics.”

“If a cleric after the congregation’s prayer, in the mosque, speaks against this and that, or compliments so and so, and then degrades another, it is obvious that the mosque is emptied,” Meybodi claimed. “If these mosques had returned to their original place of spirituality, morality and worship, people would have been willing [to come].”


The seminary cleric continued by explaining that people are upset over the government’s attempts to enforce the hijab laws.

“Another example is the issue of hijab, where the government entered with law, regulation, fines, and threats and people rejected the issue.”

According to Meybodi, the influence of government funding – not its lack – is the real problem.

“In the past, the mosque was run with people’s money. If government money goes into a mosque, that mosque is no longer a place of worship.”

 

An article in Iran’s FARS News Agency, managed by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), stated that, while there are enough religious leaders in the country, students are leaving seminary to pursue government jobs.

The report stated that there are six imams for every national mosque but that students don’t want to take positions as mosque leaders because the pay is not guaranteed, unlike a government salary.

Doulabi, himself, appears to agree with some of these concerns.

 

In a sermon during Ramadan, he identified three possible reasons for the decline of Islamic practice in Iran: the humiliation of people in the name of religion; distorting religious teachings and using religious concepts to punish citizens who criticize the government; and misuse of funds, leading to increased poverty.


According to Doulabi, these three things have caused Muslims to have a pessimistic view of the Shia religion. He added that distrust towards the government equals distrust of the religion because the two are inseparable in Iran.

“If the Islamic Revolution is damaged in the present era, then Islam has been damaged in the contemporary era because true Islam is crystallized in the Islamic Revolution of Iran and despite all the problems of the life of Islam it is tied to the life of the Islamic Revolution.”

 

While the anti-hijab protests that caught the world’s attention have died down in recent months, Doulabi’s remarks indicate that the corruption and injustice of the ayatollah regime towards its people have produced a loss of faith in Islam as the religion of truth.

The question is, are Iranians seeking the truth and, if so, where?

Unofficial reports indicate that a growing number of Iranians are seeking the truth in Jesus.

Marziyeh (Marzi) Amirizadeh and her friend Maryam Rostampour drew world attention in 2009 after their arrests for “promoting Christianity in Iran.”

 

Marzi spoke with CBN columnist Arlene Bridges Samuels last year, and said that the revolts in Iran are “not just about a piece of cloth.”

“The protesters are not in the streets facing guns and bullets just for that,” Marzi said, and claimed that corruption and persecution in Iran have created a thirst for the Gospel.

“Persecution is helping people to see the truth. When we were evangelizing in Iran, we didn’t have even one bad experience. Everyone was so thirsty to find the truth and I could see that God had prepared their hearts even before we talked to them,” Marzi said.

 

Iranian ex-pats Peyman Mojtahedi and Saeid Miryaghoobi spoke with ALL ISRAEL NEWS while attending the International Christian Embassy’s Feast of Tabernacles celebration last year.

Mojtahedi came to faith after accidentally watching a scene from “The Passion of the Christ” in Russian. While he didn’t understand what was being said because of the language barrier, he was struck by what he saw and began to cry.

His mother, who had secretly begun watching Christian programming on satellite TV, explained to him that the movie was about Jesus.

 

Programs such as MohabatTV and Sat 7 Pars share the Gospel in Farsi via Christian messages and programming streamed over satellite and available to anyone who has a satellite dish. While satellite dishes are officially illegal in Iran – with the government often conducting raids and destroying them – many Iranians will pay to have cheap satellite dishes made just to view media that the government does not authorize, including Christian media.

Mojtahedi, himself, worked for a Christian radio station in Turkey, broadcasting Farsi programming and translating messages from well-known Christian teachers.

Iran Alive Ministries, broadcast from Dallas, Texas, is another organization that shares the Gospel with the Iranian people.

 

The ministry estimates that Christian broadcasting reaches some 6 million Iranians daily.

With Iran having one of the fastest-growing Evangelical populations in the world, hope remains that more and more Iranians will find and embrace the truth.

Join us in praying for the people of Iran.

Insider Reveals Sickening 2‑Word Name Biden W.H. Has for Trump:

The platform of Democratic Presidential Candidate Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign was returning “decency” to the White House.

Insiders, however, have disclosed that Biden’s White House staff has a very bad culture.

Politico just disclosed to Fox News that a number of Biden’s associates had a very repulsive nickname for President Trump.

 

The site was informed by White House insiders that Trump’s aides call him “Hitler Pig.”

According to the publication, Nick Fuentes and Trump had a meeting at Mar-a-Lago, which is when the ugly nickname originated.

Fuentes was the guest of Kayne West, who had invited the rapper to supper at his resort in Florida.

As the media alleged, Trump had not extended a direct invitation to Fuentes.

According to the publication, Biden’s “generally younger, more digitally native” assistants use the name.

Fox’s Harris Faulkner Goes Rogue On LIVE TV — Reveals Shocking Truth:

As the national situation surrounding the illegal immigration problem, which started under President Joe Biden, deteriorates, Fox News personality Harris Faulkner opened up to viewers last week.

 

At the start of the show, Faulkner informed her guests and co-hosts that Governor Kathy Hochul (D) of New York had called in the National Guard to assist in managing and caring for the tens of thousands of migrants that had flooded New York City and other parts of the state. Republicans and Democrats both complained, prompting the decision.

 

Still, Faulkner claimed in a video showing countless migrants wading across the Rio Grande that “what’s going on in the streets of New York is a microcosm” of what is happening every day along the U.S.-Mexico border, with Eagle Pass, Texas, being the most recent hotspot.

 

She also brought up the fact that Border Patrol officials have been seen on camera assuring migrants that they are free to travel wherever in the US. She said that even though Biden overturned previous President Trump’s stringent enforcement procedures on day one of his administration and allowed millions of migrants to enter the country illegally, he seems to have little desire to enforce border security.

“I don’t know how much vetting is being done because our Border Patrol agents are literally outnumbered at the border,” she said, adding that although their main job is to process migrants as swiftly as possible, they are not preventing them from entering.

 

According to sources from Customs and Border Protection, there were over 11,000 migrant interactions in the last 24 hours, indicating that the “Southern border is reaching levels that we have never seen before,” Faulkner continued.

She noted, “We don’t know who they are,” but the amount “marks the highest single-day total in recent memory.”

She proceeded to display a still image from a video of a bloodied and bruised Border Patrol agent who had been “violently beaten in the Rio Grande sector” in the days following his attack by a group of migrants. This indicates that the migrants’ first “official” act following their illegal border crossing was to commit a violent crime.

She clarified, “His attacker was a known smuggler who was branded a ‘rat’ by the cartels.”

WATCH:


Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas criticized Biden and Democrats in an interview on Wednesday night over the current chaotic state of affairs at the U.S. border, noting that, in the run-up to the 2024 election, an increasing number of Americans are beginning to prioritize concerns about illegal immigration and migrant crime.

Cruz, who is seeking reelection in November, charged that Biden and his party are prepared to endure “collateral damage” in the form of crimes against Americans in order to bring in “future voters” during an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters.

“They support the open borders we have. The 10.6 million immigrants who have crossed under Joe Biden, Democrats, and the media to view them as future Democrat voters,” Cruz said. “If people have to die, if children have to be assaulted and women have to be, they are willing to accept that as collateral damage.

 

“The odds of a major terrorist attack in America today are greater than they have been at any point since September 11th, 2001. Tomorrow, I am going to be on the border with President Trump. I am going to be on Sean Hannity’s show with the president on the border and highlighting this invasion that is happening,” he continued.

“Every time I am on the border, when I talk to Border Patrol agents [and] they tell me they are concerned about Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists crossing the border, crossing over and trying to commit another mass murder like October 7th,” he added.
