Yes They Can. Yes, They Will.

We already have the precedent for gun confiscation. It was the Bush administration, during 2005 after Hurricane Katrina. The video shows it all. The guns were eventually returned, but only after people where throttled and injured in their homes by invading police forces. They were told it was a special exception — due to the emergency. Don’t you have even more of a need to protect yourself during an emergency like Katrina? Isn’t that the time when the 2nd Amendment is even MORE relevant than normal? It’s beyond madness.

Kamala has already warned us. She changes her positions day to day (though not on gun confiscation, yet.) When running in 2020, she said (it’s on the video) that we should have national gun confiscation, in the form of mandatory buybacks. This means you turn in your guns — all of them — and the government pays you something. If not, the police come to your home. She said she won’t wait for legislation and she’ll do it by executive order. The damage to America (even if the guns are later returned, which we know they won’t be) would be irreparable. It could start our second civil war.

So if you’re trying to show your friends how virtuous you are by voting for Kamala instead of voting for Trump, think about what you might be starting.

How can so many voters LOVE Harris when they have NO idea what she stands for, no idea how she conducts herself, or what character she has or lacks? I realize the loathing that some feel toward Donald Trump is so deep-rooted that they will vote for anyone but Trump. In the case of Hollywood leftists, they loathe Trump, but also anyone who’s not a Communist totalitarian, like themselves. So why don’t they just admit it? “I will vote for a rock in my yard, or the remains of roadkill in the street. Just so it’s not a Republican, not a conservative and not Trump.” Instead, they pretend to believe Kamala is the Second Coming when they’ve barely heard her utter one coherent thought. These fools are not just mindless idiots; they’re DISHONEST mindless idiots.

If Trump is anything other than massively ahead (even with rigged polls) then something must be deeply wrong with this country.

Posted on Facebook by Allen Miller: Re: Israel needs no new laws to justify terminating terrorists. It does need courage, however. FTA:
No, terrorists are not protected by the Geneva Conventions, which are intended to protect individuals during armed conflicts. The Geneva Conventions consider terrorists to be “unlawful combatants” and do not apply to them.

Members of the Gvura Forum converged on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office in Jerusalem on Monday to protest against a general strike called by the Histadrut labor federation following the Israel Defense Forces’ recovery over the weekend of six hostage bodies from the Gaza Strip.

“We call on the prime minister not to give up to [Hamas terror chief Yahya] Sinwar and instead to keep up military pressure to achieve total victory,” Yehoshua Shani, a member of the forum whose son, IDF Capt. Ori Shani, was killed in action at Kissufim on Oct. 7, told the Jewish News Syndicate.  

“Our heart is with the families of the hostages who were killed by Hamas and not the government of Israel, which needs to do everything possible to bring the hostages back while at the same time destroying Hamas and ending terror,” Shani continued.

Captives Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23; Eden Yerushalmi, 24; Almog Sarusi, 25; Alexander Lobanov, 32; Carmel Gat, 40; and Master Sgt. Ori Danino, 25, whose bodies were recovered from a Rafah tunnel in southern Gaza overnight Saturday, were shot multiple times at close range shortly before their discovery.

Israelis reacted with anger, and many blamed the Netanyahu government for Hamas’ refusal to accept a U.S.-backed cease-fire proposal, one that Jerusalem has accepted.

An estimated 30,000 people protested in Tel Aviv on Sunday, demanding the government secure the hostages.

The Histadrut, representing roughly 800,000 Israeli trade unionists, declared a 24-hour general strike starting at 6 a.m. Monday. Ben Gurion International Airport halted departures, initially from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Hospitals moved to reduce operations. Ports offloaded only expendable items and medical supplies.

The Tel Aviv Labor Court subsequently ordered the strike to end at 2:30 p.m., with the court’s president calling the economic shutdown “political.”

National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir stopped by the rally on Monday, stating, “We are using our power in the government to prevent a reckless deal. With Hamas you need to speak only between gunsights.”

On Sunday, Netanyahu said he was “outraged to the depths” of his soul by the murder of the six hostages and blamed Hamas for blocking a cease-fire agreement.

“Our efforts to free our hostages are continuing constantly. Since December, Hamas has refused to hold genuine negotiations,” he said.

“Three months ago, on May 27, Israel agreed to a hostage-release deal with full backing from the United States. Hamas refused. Even after the United States updated the deal framework on Aug. 16, we agreed, and Hamas again refused.”

“Whoever murders hostages does not want a deal,” continued Netanyahu. “For our part, we will not relent. The government of Israel is committed, and I am personally committed, to continue striving toward a deal that will return all of our hostages and ensure our security and our existence.”

While the Hostage and Missing Families Forum has accused Netanyahu of abandoning the captives, the Tikva Forum on Sunday called on the government to end months of indirect negotiations with Hamas. 

“Hamas has actually started to kill people directly to raise the pressure on the government to enter a deal on its conditions,” Shimon Or, the uncle of captive Avinatan Or and a member of the Tikva Forum, told JNS.

“We knew that Hamas was a murderous terror organization, but they are now killing during negotiations. This represents a change in their strategy,” he continued.

“Hamas anticipated that instead of blaming the killers, the Israeli people would put the responsibility on the government, which actually wants to bring back the hostages,” he added. 

Regarding the Israeli Security Cabinet vote last week in support of Netanyahu’s stance of maintaining an IDF presence in the Philadelphi Corridor on Gaza’s border with Egypt, Or stressed that such a position will save lives. 

“Keeping troops in the corridor ensures that Hamas will not rearm in Gaza, and so there will not be another Oct. 7,” he said. “The government didn’t go to war for nothing; we went to war keep the whole country safe.”

“There cannot be a situation where the government gives up clauses in any deal that are essential to keeping the Israeli people and the country safe once the hostages are back,” he continued. 

“We are demanding from Prime Minister Netanyahu that he stop negotiating and makes sure Hamas knows that it will no longer exist,” Or said.

CNN was the lucky winner of the first sit-down media interview with Vice President Kamala Harris since she was pushed to the top of the ticket nearly forty days ago and, well, it didn’t go great.

It was not a particularly long interview. Internet rumors suggested it would be about eighteen minutes in totality and that it had been pre-recorded, which implied edits. While the interview was a bit longer than that and Dana Bash confirmed nothing was cut, we still got only about sixteen minutes of speaking time from Kamala. This was made more obvious by CNN’s decision to stretch it like pizza dough to fit an hour-long broadcast.

They opened with a nearly five-minute teaser video that came across like an ad for the Harris campaign, with Bash calling the interview a “watershed moment” in the election. Throughout the hour they took several commercial breaks, teased unaired portions of the interview and aired other pre-packaged videos.

CNN should have demanded more time from Kamala and when they didn’t get it, they should have aired the interview in its entirety at one time so viewers could easily recognize how strict the campaign was on access to the candidate. A bolder network would have done so.

Dana Bash’s initial questioning of Kamala was not wholly offensive; she asked Kamala what she would do on day one as president, about the massive shifts in her policy positions since 2019, about the current state of the economy and voters’ feelings that it was better under Trump, why she hasn’t accomplished in the past three and a half years the things she says she wants to accomplish in the next four and if she stands by her positive assessment of President Joe Biden after his debate against Trump. She also asked Walz about his misrepresentation of his service record and his wife’s fertility treatments.

But there were so many missed opportunities for follow-ups. Kamala claimed she had changed her position on fracking between 2019 and 2020, that she had “made clear” on the vice presidential debate stage in 2020 where she stood on the issue. In reality, she shared Biden’s position during the debate, not her own. “Joe Biden will not end fracking. He has been very clear about that,” she said at the time.

Bash did not press her on how she managed to go from thinking illegal immigration should be decriminalized and that ICE is comparable to the KKK to thinking we should enforce our nation’s border laws. Bash did not point out that, when asked if Bidenomics was a success, Kamala did not specifically say that it was.

Her attempts to ask tough questions of Walz similarly fell flat. She reduced Walz’s misstatements about his military record to one moment when he said he carried weapons in war; he also, though, continues to claim the wrong rank and has been introduced by others numerous times without correction as a combat veteran. Bash let Walz off easy when he explained it away as being an emotional guy who sometimes used “bad grammar.” Walz claimed that people he has served with have vouched for him, but plenty of his fellow service-members also criticized him and called him out for abandoning their unit ahead of a deployment.

Finally, Bash decided to spend the last few minutes of her already short interview playing footsie. She brought up a clip of Tim Walz’s son, Gus — “a star was born” — cheering for him at the convention and asked the governor to react to it. She referred to an “iconic photo” of Kamala’s grandniece watching her speak at the convention and asked Kamala what it meant to her. It was essentially a journalistic apology to the candidates for any tough questions she had asked earlier.

Aesthetically, the interview was a complete mess. The shot location was drab and looked like an office board room. Kamala was tucked in the back of the shot with Bash in the foreground, which made Kamala look small and insignificant. When the camera zoomed into Kamala’s face, you could see Bash shuffling her papers just above the chyron. The lighting washed everyone out (and it didn’t help that the warm-toned Harris chose a slate gray suit). Kamala had a water cup sitting directly under her chair in the center of the shot.

After the interview, CNN did its typical analysis. They had two panels during the next hour of programming, both of which had four liberal commentators facing off against one conservative. If you include host Abby Phillip — which you should, since she called Harris a “homework doer,” despite past staffers telling Politico she unequivocally did not do her homework — it was six against one.

For the Harris campaign, this was certainly by design. Bash was a great choice to attempt to give the interview legitimacy as she has the veneer of objectivity and is coming off a good performance at the presidential debate. But they knew Bash would never truly hold Kamala accountable. That’s just not the way it goes between Democrats and CNN.

Amber Duke, The Spectator

With Vice President Kamala Harris finally set to give a sit-down interview with a major media outlet this week, Ric Grenell, former acting director of National Intelligence offered some suggestions for the CNN interviewer.

In July, Harris was awarded President Joe Biden’s spot at the top of the Democratic Party’s ticket without the benefit of a single delegate or primary vote. Since that time she has only spoken in scripted preproduced formats, leaving many in the media clamoring for Harris to state her case for the presidency in her own words. 

Grenell, formally of the first Trump administration, offered some biting suggestions Wednesday to anchor Dana Bash to help get the conversation started:

1. If you are capable of lowering prices for Americans, why have not you done it in the 3½ years you have been in office?
2. You say housing affordability would be a “day one priority” if you were elected. Why is it not a priority now? Housing is not affordable for the average American in 99% of the nation.
3. You co-sponsored Medicare-for-all and the Green New Deal. Do you still support these multitrillion-dollar takeovers of the American economy?
4. You talk a lot about “freedom.” What about the freedoms of Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, and Jocelyn Nungaray? These women were killed by illegal immigrants who were let into the country under your watch.
5. President Trump did not need a “border bill” to secure the border. Why did you support executive actions like stopping construction of the border wall and halting deportations that intentionally unsecured the border?
6. Trump was the first president in decades to start no new wars. Under your watch, wars are popping up in Europe and the Middle East. Why is that?
7. You supported the defund the police movement and have said more police does not mean more safety. Why do you want fewer police officers?
8. Why did you conceal Joe Biden’s cognitive decline from the American people?
9. You have called for getting rid of cash bail and your campaign has not backed away from it. Why do you still support such a radical view?
10. You have sent anonymous aides out to claim you have abandoned the radically liberal positions that you have held for decades. Do you think lying to the American people is the best strategy?

For her first prime-time interview, Harris will curiously be joined by her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. Even some of the outlet’s own commentators have blasted the decision to bring along a companion.

“I think it’s incredibly weak — weak sauce — to show up with your running mate,” CNN’s Scott Jennings said.

“The fact that they don’t have enough confidence in her to let her sit at the actual top of the ticket and do a single interview speaks volumes.”

The Harris-Walz interview will be taped Thursday and is expected to air at 9 p.m. ET on CNN.

Robert Kennedy, Jr. understands:

What “MAGA” really means

The phrase has troubled liberals who think it is a call for a return to an America before civil rights, gay rights, and women’s rights. But I have a more generous interpretation, one that is truer to my experience of Donald Trump as he is today. “Make America Great Again” recalls a nation brimming with vitality, with a can-do spirit, with hope and a belief in itself. It was an America that was beginning to confront its darker shadows, could acknowledge the injustice in its past and present, yet at the same time could celebrate its successes. It was a nation of broad prosperity, the world’s most vibrant middle class, and a idealistic belief (though not consistently applied) in freedom, justice, and democracy. It was a nation that led the world in innovation, productivity, and technology. And it was the healthiest country in the world. I have talked to many Trump supporters. I have talked with his inner circle. I have talked to the man himself. This is the America they want to restore.

Kamala is lying that she now opposes electric car mandates and wants Trump’s border wall completed. Last week she wanted Soviet-style pricing and bread lines. Why can’t she make up her mind? Is she a Communist, or a Constitutionalist? How can leftists justify voting for her, if she’s supposedly adopting Trump positions? Do these toxic totalitarians think we are all brain dead? Or are they brain dead, and just assume we’re the same?

In today’s rapidly evolving job market, many job seekers find themselves perplexed by the abundance of job openings paired with the difficulty of securing employment. Despite reports from the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicating millions of job vacancies, the reality of landing a job has become increasingly challenging. This seeming contradiction has left many wondering, “If everyone is hiring, why can’t I get a job?” The answer lies in the complex dynamics of the modern hiring landscape, influenced by factors such as ghost jobs, automated screening processes, and economic uncertainty.

The current job market presents a paradox. On one hand, there are more job openings than ever before, with the Bureau of Labor Statistics reporting over 8 million vacancies in 2024. On the other hand, a significant portion of job seekers are struggling to find employment. This discrepancy has led to the widespread sentiment that “no one wants to work anymore,” a phrase often cited by employers. However, the underlying issue is not a lack of willing workers but rather systemic challenges within the hiring process itself.

One of the most significant challenges job seekers face today is the proliferation of ghost jobs. These are positions that companies advertise without any real intention of filling them in the immediate future. Ghost jobs may be posted to maintain a talent pool, create an illusion of growth for investors, or satisfy internal policies related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). For job seekers, applying to these non-existent roles can be an exercise in futility, contributing to the frustration and discouragement many experience during their job search.

The job search process is further complicated by the widespread use of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). These automated systems are designed to filter resumes, often rejecting qualified candidates based on rigid keyword criteria or formatting issues before a human recruiter even sees the application. This technological barrier can leave many capable professionals out of the running, adding to the perception that finding a job is nearly impossible.

Moreover, the rise of remote work has expanded the talent pool globally. This means that job seekers are not only competing with local candidates but also with professionals from around the world, making the job market more competitive than ever before. As companies have access to a broader range of candidates, the criteria for hiring can become more stringent, further narrowing the field of opportunities for job seekers.

Economic uncertainty is another critical factor influencing the current job market. Companies may post jobs as a precautionary measure but delay actual hiring until they have a clearer picture of the market’s stability. This can result in prolonged hiring processes, positions being put on hold, or job postings that are not reflective of immediate hiring needs. For job seekers, this uncertainty translates into extended waiting periods and fewer concrete opportunities, contributing to the overall difficulty in securing employment.

While the job market appears to be full of opportunities, the reality for many job seekers is far more complex. Factors such as ghost jobs, automated resume filtering, increased global competition, and economic uncertainty create significant obstacles in the hiring process.

Will the US let Israel win?

Tony Blinken is back in Israel for his ninth visit since 10/7. I wish I had his frequent flyer points.

Humor has always been a part of warfare. In order to endure oftentimes unspeakable experiences or images, people sometimes need to find a way to laugh. There is a story of British warships preparing to engage a German U-boat wolfpack in the Battle of the Atlantic. A submarine commander messaged his destroyer counterpart that in the event of engagement with the enemy, he would plan to stay on the water surface. The destroyer captain dryly responded, “So do I (meaning not get sunk).”

The Gaza war has also intertwined some jokes and laughter along with the pain, tears, and suffering. Very early in the war was the “Lego Gaza City” set with all gray parts heaped in a huge mound—just like the real thing. There was the UberEats type delivery soldier bringing food on a bicycle to his comrades in a destroyed building in Khan Yunis. And who could forget the soldier who knocked on the door of a house in Gaza to no answer. When he moved away the camera showed that nothing but the door was left to the entire building. While rockets and drones were actively on their way from Iran, one fellow put up a short video. He begged the Iranians to attack the “Jewish holy sites” as he showed on a detailed map of Israel. Each site was a branch office of the Israel Tax Authority.

As Tony Blinken once again returns to Israel, the question is what is the endgame? Hamas kidnapped so many Israelis—both live and dead—in order to use them as their strongest bargaining chip in finishing off the war. I do not believe that Yahya Sinwar or anyone else in Hamas expected the war to go as it has, with tens of thousands of Gazans dead, many of them Hamas members. I don’t think that they expected the massive levels of destruction that have led to thousands of buildings being destroyed and many thousands more being in need of dire repair before anyone will use them again. I doubt that they expected Israel to easily grab the Philadelphi Corridor on the Egyptian border and thoroughly flatten Rafah as Israel has done.

Hamas ostensibly should be like Germany or Japan and simply say yes to whatever is offered to them. They—as the Palestinians always have—are certain that they are the victors. They “demand” (like a guy with a gun facing him “demanding” something) that Israel stop fighting, remove all troops and give Rafah back to Hamas for more weapons running. While the Saudis seem to have unlimited oil, the Palestinians seem to have unlimited chutzpah. Israel is supposed to just get up and leave Gaza as if nothing happened on 10/7 or thereafter during which over 300 Israeli soldiers have been killed fighting in Gaza. Hamas, or what’s left of it, is delusional. They want to go back to the 6th of October with a slightly less valuable real estate portfolio.

Just as the sun rises in the east, so too does the US and its coterie of international clowns demand that Israel accept whatever dish Hamas is serving. Israel, behaving rationally for once, is demanding to stay on the border between the barbarians and their Egyptian suppliers. Staying in Rafah would mean that Hamas would have no border access that did not involve Israeli presence. If Hamas wanted the Gazans to simply live, that would not be a problem. Thousands of trucks enter Gaza regularly, and in the future there would be no problem providing whatever they needed. Hamas sees a situation in which gun-running by land or by sea would be nearly impossible due to the new reality of Rafah becoming a big Israeli tank parking lot. Israel also has prepared a large swath of land in the middle of Gaza as a buffer between north and south Gaza, with access to the north with Israeli permission only. Someone who has fought in Gaza and whose opinion I very much respect said that if Israel caves and in any way physically leaves Rafah for some high-tech eyes-in-the-sky approach, then you should take out your calendar and circle the date when you expect the next 10/7 pogrom to occur.

America is only interested in a deal so as to put a checkmark in the “Gaza War Over” box. They want the blue-haired college mutants and their Islamist friends to go back to other forms of petty crime and stop their endless protesting. There are two problems. Forcing Israel to make a bad deal means that there will be problems sooner rather than later. Hamas fired some rockets last week at Tel Aviv. Making a bad deal means that such events will become more common. The other problem is that the college protesters will not stop protesting. Even if the war somehow ends with an agreement, they will continue as long as there is Iranian funding. Possible continuing topics: Bibi is a war criminal; Gaza is a big open air prison; Gaza is occupied though it isn’t. Etc. The Biden administration or whichever intern is running it this week, is desperate to get rid of the pro-Hamas protests. Their problem is that the other side is not in such a hurry. Watch Chicago this week for the latest installment.

The venerable B-52 has part of its crew in the cockpit, with other members in a windowless area below. Electronic warfare and weapons officers work in a cramped area of the plane lacking any natural light. A B-52 on a mission over North Vietnam experienced a surface-to-air missile that exploded just off of its left wing. There was significant damage and the pilots worked very hard to control the monster bomber and get it back to a US base. Because fuel tanks had been damaged, the plane needed near continuous aerial refueling until its safe landing. During the frantic and terrifying journey back to safety, the electronic warfare officer radioed his terrified comrades, “Hey, I’ve finally got a window. I can see outside the plane!” A big chunk of the plane’s left side had been blown off and at least one person found something to cheer about. Will the normally clueless Blinken finally see some light and support Israel’s right to hold land that it took with blood and treasure? Will Blinken scream at Hamas instead of at Bibi and Israelis? Will the US finally let Israel win?

They say a Kamala victory will be historic. “The first woman President.” Wow, cool! But how meaningful a victory if the first woman President is a totalitarian? And an incompetent freak? It’s a looming disaster for every man and woman who craves peace, prosperity and freedom. The first woman President, if this happens, will bring suffering, death and destruction to an already highly vulnerable, faltering nation.

***********

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a letter on Monday that the Biden-Harris administration repeatedly pressured his company — which includes Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp, and more — to censor content that is protected free speech. “In 2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire, and expressed a lot of frustration with our teams when we didn’t agree,” he said in the letter. “Ultimately, it was our decision whether or not to take content down, and we own our decisions, including COVID-19-related changes we made to our enforcement in the wake of this pressure.” [The Daily Wire 8/26/24]

It’s not just a basis for impeachment of Biden and Harris, and removing them from office. They should be arrested, tried and convicted of treason. I can’t believe either of them still walk free.

***********

They say ANYBODY is better than Trump. Their reasons (they say) is that he will be a dictator. Dictators censor speech, prosecute dissension, weaponize the legal system, and hyperinflate the currency, ultimately impoverishing millions. Trump did NONE of these things when in office. He proposes doing NONE of these things if returned to office. Their guys (the ones who say ANYBODY but Trump) do ALL of these things.

So if they hate Trump because he’s a dictator, and that anything is better than Trump — including a dictatorship — then what can we make of the intellectual honesty of such people?

***********

It’s amusing to watch Kamala’s people manipulate the presidential debate rules in her favor. She already has the entire media, the entire political class, every single debate “moderator” from every single network explicitly on the side of her Party and against Trump.
It just goes to show how thin-skinned and emotionally fragile all tyrants and dictators are. Yet we continue to let these glorified snowflakes bulldoze away our rights and impoverish our lives.

How much longer, silent majority?
