IDF wiping out Syrian army

Since Sunday, the IDF has managed to destroy up to 80 percent of all Syrian military assets, according to Israeli assessments. This operation is primarily aimed at preventing jihadists from obtaining weapons, while also reaffirming Israel's deterrence in the region.

In a swift action similar to the IDF's Six-Day War success, Israel is taking advantage of the power vacuum in Syria to dismantle one of the Middle East's strongest military forces.

After the Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023, Israel seemed vulnerable, leading Arab nations to reconsider their relationships with Israel and the U.S., leaning more towards Iran and Russia. In the Middle East, the perception of strength can influence alliances and power.

However, Israel responded by strategically weakening Hamas and Hezbollah, and by dismantling Iran's air defenses, moves which played a key role in the recent Syrian rebel victory. Now, the IDF is demonstrating that it, not Assad's allies in Moscow and Tehran, holds significant regional power.

The Syrian army, built over decades and equipped with advanced Russian weaponry, has been decimated. In just two days after Assad's regime fell and rebels took Damascus, the Israeli air force and navy have systematically destroyed Assad's military capabilities.

Israel is eliminating "all or almost all of Assad’s air force and navy," according to Amatzia Bar’am, a Middle East historian at Haifa University. This includes targeting chemical weapon manufacturing sites and weapon stockpiles. The IDF has also taken control of the demilitarized zone on the Golan Heights and captured the Syrian side of Mount Hermon, allowing them to monitor Syria's borders with Iraq and Lebanon.

In around 300 sorties overnight, the Israeli air force hit Syria’s military aircraft, including high-end MiG 23 and 29 jets, and Sukhoi-25 planes. The Israeli navy destroyed most of the Syrian warships at the ports of Latakia and Tartus, which are vital for Russia's naval operations in the Mediterranean and the Middle East. On Tuesday, satellite images confirmed the retreat of Russian warships from the port.

A "scientific institute" near Damascus, used for developing chemical and other weapons of mass destruction, was also obliterated, along with Syria's ballistic and sea-to-land missiles. The destruction of S-300 and other anti-aircraft systems has cleared Syrian skies for Israeli jets to venture further east.

Israel is keeping a "watchful eye on Tehran," Mr. Bar’am notes. "If the Islamic Republic opts for a nuclear breakthrough, Israel will strike with everything it has, even if it has to go it alone. The hope is that the U.S. will join," he says.

“We seek good relations with the new Syrian regime,” Prime Minister Netanyahu said Tuesday. “But if it allows Iran to re-establish itself in Syria, to facilitate transfer of Iranian or any other arms to Hezbollah, or if it attacks us, we will respond forcefully and exact a heavy price. What happened to the previous regime will then happen to this regime.”

Reports surfaced on Tuesday that IDF ground forces were approaching Damascus, but Israel denied these claims: “Reports circulating in the media about the alleged advancement of Israeli tanks towards Damascus are false,” IDF spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Nadav Shoshani stated on his X account. “IDF troops are stationed within the area of separation, to protect the State of Israel.”

The Golan Heights buffer zone has been under UN peacekeeping surveillance since the 1973 war, but when armed militias tried to seize control on Sunday, the IDF intervened to protect the UN forces. The IDF plans to maintain control of this zone "on a temporary basis."

“I ordered the establishment of a sterile protection zone from weapons and terrorist threats in southern Syria,” Defense Minister Israel Katz said during a visit to the Golan Tuesday, also highlighting the IDF's recent successes against the Syrian military.

“Israel is using this short window in time to do what it was unable to do in decades,” military analyst Nir Dvori from Channel 12 commented. The IDF “is destroying this huge, threatening Syrian military. It would take years to replenish this arsenal, if anyone wants to do that.”

Meanwhile, U.S. B-52 bombers and F-15 jets hit ISIS targets in central Syria on Monday. “There should be no doubt — we will not allow ISIS to reconstitute and take advantage of the current situation in Syria,” Central Command's General Michael Erik Kurilla stated.

The UN, however, is condemning Israel's actions. “We are continuing to see Israeli movements and bombardments into Syrian territory. This needs to stop,” UN special envoy to Syria, Geir Pedersen, told reporters on Tuesday, without commenting on similar U.S. operations.

Nancy Mace (R-SC) Allegedly Assaulted by 'Pro-Trans' Man

James McIntyre, 33, of Illinois, was arrested by Capitol Police Tuesday for allegedly assaulting US Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC). Mace said that the attacker was a 'pro-trans' man and described her injuries as minor.

McIntyre now faces a charge for Assaulting a Government Official according to Capitol Police.

The incident happened shortly before 6 pm in Rayburn. https://t.co/UqvCViMXK9— Beatrice Peterson (@MissBeaE on all platforms) (@MissBeaE)

"I was physically accosted at the Capitol tonight by a pro-tr*ns man. One new brace for my wrist and some ice for my arm and it’ll heal just fine.

The Capitol police arrested the guy.

Your tr*ns violence and threats on my life will only make me double down. FAFO. #HoldTheLine— Nancy Mace (@NancyMace) December 11, 2024

Is anyone surprised about the alleged attacker's ideology?

Rep. Mace is known for her pro-woman stance and is taking a strong stance to keep men who pretend to be women from invading women's restrooms, sports, and other female-only spaces.

Some on X, like Robby Starbuck, are warning that trans-related attacks will increase as society rejects the toxic ideology.

Up your security. As an ideology begins to die, it resembles a wounded animal. It will carry out desperate act after desperate act until there’s nothing left but defeat. The public now knows this is a toxic ideology and it’s dying. Expect more desperate acts from these lunatics.— Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) December 11, 2024

He's exactly correct.


Recently, trans-activists have targeted women’s restrooms near Mace’s office on Capitol Hill. It was Rep. Mace who led the effort to keep men, no matter how they identify, out of women's restrooms at the Capitol. The rules were put into effect in November.

Collapse of Syria is creating a rift between IRGC terrorist officials

Officials of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) are beginning to resemble the Democratic Party in the US with all the disagreements and blame being tossed around. Military officials are blaming each other for the fall of Bashar al-Assad, according to the Telegraph.

After Tehran poured billions into sustaining Bashar "The Chin" Assad's regime, members of the IRGC are now pointing fingers at each other "in angry terms" over the collapse of a key element in Khamenei’s so-called "axis of resistance." 

"The atmosphere is like something between almost punching each other, punching the walls, yelling at each other and kicking rubbish bins. They are blaming each other, and no one is taking responsibility," an anonymous Iranian official stated.

"No one ever imagined seeing Assad fleeing, as the focus for 10 years had been only on keeping him in power," the official added. "And it was not because we were in love with him, it was because we wanted to maintain proximity to Israel and Hezbollah."

Assad's regime crumbled early Sunday morning after a swift offensive by Hayʼat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and Syrian rebel forces, who seized most of the country's territory in just a few days, capturing four major cities within 24 hours. Assad fled Syria during the final rebel assault on Damascus, reportedly seeking asylum in Russia.

Iranian state media and officials are framing HTS's success as a strategic move by Western powers to undermine the "axis of resistance" promoted by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

“Iran’s top general warned that the recent surge of terrorist activities in Syria is part of an American-Israeli scheme to weaken the Syrian government and its allies in the 'axis of resistance'," according to Iranian state media IRNA, as cited by The Jerusalem Post.

The Syrian regime's fall has notable implications for Israel, as Syria was Tehran’s primary conduit for arming Hezbollah. While Israel and Hezbollah are currently observing a short-term ceasefire, this development significantly hampers Hezbollah's capacity to rearm near Israel's northern border.

"You need someone there to send arms to [but] they are either getting killed or escaping. Now the focus is on how to move forward from this impasse," another IRGC official disclosed to the Telegraph. "For now, there are no discussions about arms, as everyone is trying to understand what is really happening and how dangerous it is for Iran."

The Telegraph also reports that within the IRGC, much of the blame for the debacle is being placed on Quds Force commander Brig. – Gen. Esmail Qaani for permitting the dispersal of Syrian military forces.

"He has done nothing to prevent Iran’s interests from crumbling," one IRGC official commented. "Allies fell one after another, and he was watching from Tehran. Even worse days might yet be coming."

The sources further revealed to the Telegraph that there are rumors suggesting that Khamenei might replace Qaani due to mounting internal pressure.

"The situation is bizarre and heated and angry discussions are taking place – the other concern is what to tell supporters in Iran," the first source shared with the Telegraph.

The same official highlighted Iran's current vulnerability, stating, "The resistance project almost no longer exists."

“You don’t need to be an expert to see that we are in our weakest and most vulnerable position in a decade, and many acknowledge that here,” the official concluded to the Telegraph

Black church group retracts call for Sharptongue's suspension over covert donations from Harris' campaign

A coalition of Black churches is retracting its demand for MSNBC to suspend and investigate the anti-Semitic race-baiter and very very Reverend Al Sharptongue after his nonprofit received $500,000 from Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign. It is not known whether the very extreme Reverend  strong-armed the Black churches with threats, but that cannot be ruled out as yet.

Just a week after criticizing Sharptongue, saying his actions put a "moral stain on the integrity of the Black Church," the National Black Church Initiative (NBCI) took back their words, calling their initial statement "inappropriate" and admitting they made a "misstep," as sweat poured down faces and bodies shook. 

The Washington Free Beacon reported that the Harris campaign gave two $250,000 donations to Sharptongue's National Action Network on Sept. 5 and Oct. 1. These donations occurred before the super Reverend did a friendly interview with Kamala Hahaharris on Oct. 20.

In a statement posted on their Facebook page last Tuesday, the NBCI had slammed Sharptongue, highlighting "significant moral and journalism ethics" concerns due to the payment. They claimed to represent 150,000 churches nationwide and said they would "support Rev. Sharpton[gue's]'s suspension" until a full investigation was done.

However, on Monday, the initiative changed its tune, explaining that they were "unaware of the existing contract or agreement with Black organizations including the highly Reverend Sharptongue's National Action Network to conduct non-partisan Get Out the Vote (GOTV) efforts ahead of the election."

"We recognize the critical importance of this work. After further research, we have found no evidence that any candidate paid for support or endorsements, nor that NBC was engaged in any partisan political activities related to Vice President Ha[haha]rris' appearance on PoliticsNation. Furthermore, we understand that Vice President Ha[haha]rris has made previous appearances on PoliticsNation with the mostly Reverend Al Sharpton[gue] over the years," the statement continued.

The NBCI did not reply to emails asking about this change in position. MSNBC, Sharptongue, and the National Action Network also didn't respond to requests for comments on Tuesday.

MSNBC had previously suspended Joe Scarborough and the Wild and Whacky Keith Olbermann in 2010 for making political donations. When this issue with Sharpton's nonprofit came up, MSNBC mentioned to the Free Beacon that they were "unaware of the donations" but didn't clarify whether Sharptongue faced any consequences.

IDF basically blows away Syrian navy in Latakia

The Israeli Navy executed a significant operation on Monday night, effectively targeting and obliterating much of the Syrian regime's naval fleet. Israeli missile ships attacked numerous vessels equipped with anti-ship missiles at the ports of Al-Baida and Latakia. The operation's objective was to prevent these weapons from falling into the hands of hostile entities, such as the Salafist rebels who have recently taken control in Syria.

Concurrently, reports from both Reuters and the Hezbollah-associated Lebanese network Al-Mayadeen suggested that IDF units had moved beyond the buffer zone and deep into Syrian territory, a claim the IDF vehemently denied. According to regional and Syrian security sources, Israeli forces are now located approximately 15.5 miles from Damascus, with some units having reached Qatana, about 6.2 miles inside Syrian borders, east of the buffer zone.

Al-Mayadeen also claimed that IDF troops had taken control of at least nine villages and towns in the southern rural areas of Damascus, roughly 12 miles from the capital. However, a Syrian opposition-affiliated channel refuted this, stating that Israel does not control any villages in the Syrian Hermon region.

"Israeli warplanes launched over 100 strikes... including on the Barzeh scientific research centre," reported the UK-based Observatory for Human Rights. Western nations, including the United States, had previously attacked the same facility in 2018, alleging it was part of Syria's "chemical weapons infrastructure."

In response to these reports, IDF Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee dismissed them as “completely false,” clarifying that IDF units are confined to the buffer zone, maintaining defensive positions near the border to protect Israel's security.

AFP confirmed that a “scientific research center” in Damascus, linked to Bashar al-Assad’s chemical weapons program, was completely obliterated by Israeli airstrikes. Additionally, the pro-Iranian Iraqi-affiliated Sabrin news agency reported the assassination of a chemist at his home in Damascus.

During a UN Security Council meeting, Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon defended the military actions, stating they were "limited and temporary measures." He said, "Israel is not interfering in the ongoing conflict between armed groups within Syria. Our actions are solely focused on ensuring our security, and we remain committed to the 1974 disengagement agreement."

Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, in a briefing to foreign media on Monday, explained that the IDF operations near the border were intended to prevent a scenario akin to the events of October 7 from unfolding in Syria. "What guides us is safeguarding the security of Israel and its citizens,” Sa’ar emphasized.

The reported advancement of IDF armored forces has sparked international condemnation. Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Ministry accused Israel of “destroying Syria’s chance to restore security,” while Egypt described the operations as an “occupation of Syrian lands.” Conversely, U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller characterized the Israeli actions as a "temporary measure" in response to Syrian military movements, stating, "Ultimately, we want to see full adherence to the disengagement agreement, and we will ensure Israel follows through."

The IDF continues its forward defense operations in the buffer zone, deploying forces across strategic locations to counter potential threats. This follows proactive measures initiated to secure Israeli communities in the Golan Heights amid the collapse of Assad’s regime. Engineering, infantry, and armored units from the 474th and 810th Brigades are stationed along the Israel-Syria border to defend the area.

In a historic move, Israeli forces crossed into Syrian territory two days ago, seizing control of the Syrian side of Mount Hermon for the first time in over 50 years. Air Force commando units captured the summit, which provides crucial observation and fire control over the Hermon range, as part of a broader strategy to strengthen Israel’s position in the region.

Moreover, residents in five Syrian villages near the border were advised to stay indoors due to ongoing IDF operations. The Israeli Air Force has conducted over 300 airstrikes on military targets across Syria, with a focus on Syrian Air Force infrastructure. Western intelligence sources suggest these strikes are aimed at destroying Assad’s military assets to prevent them from being captured by rebel forces who might use them against Israel.

Alleged UnitedHealthcare CEO murderer restrained as he tries to shout to reporters

Luigi Mangione Restrained By Deputies
As He Shouts At Crowd Before Extradition Hearing

Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old social justice warrior charged in the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, was restrained by multiple law enforcement officers as he tried to speak to reporters on his way to his extradition hearing on Tuesday.

As Mangione was being escorted into the building for his extradition hearing at Blair County Courthouse in Pennsylvania, he shouted, “It’s completely [inaudible in the spirit of Joe Biden] and an insult to the intelligence of the American people.” NewsNation Senior National Correspondent Brian Entin reported that Mangione said, “It’s completely an injustice,” but it’s difficult to decipher the exact quote.

Mangione has been charged with second-degree murder after being arrested at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on Monday. He is expected to be extradited to New York following his hearing. His charges include second-degree murder, possession of a loaded firearm, possession of a forged instrument, and criminal possession of a weapon.

According to a law enforcement source cited by CNN, Mangione was found with a manifesto where he expressed his anger towards healthcare companies, particularly targeting "United." A senior law enforcement official told The New York Times that Mangione accuses UnitedHealthcare of favoring profits over patient care.

Mangione is an alumnus of the University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League institution, where he earned a degree in computer science. Post-graduation, he briefly worked as a head counselor at a pre-college program at Stanford University before relocating to Hawaii in 2022.

In Hawaii, he worked remotely and resided in a co-working and co-living space in Honolulu. His former roommate, R.J. Martin, told CNN that Mangione had a surfing accident that left him "in bed for about a week." Martin also mentioned that Mangione claimed to have a misaligned spine.

The suspect was in regular contact with his family and friends until about six months ago when communication ceased, according to The New York Times. It seems that none of Mangione’s relatives were aware of his location until he was arrested in Pennsylvania on Monday and charged with murder.

Biden blocked by judge from giving Obamacare to DACA recipients

A federal judge in North Dakota on Monday blocked the Biden administration from putting into action a new policy that would have made some illegal immigrants eligible for government-supported health care.

U.S. District Judge Daniel Traynor agreed to stop a new rule from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) that would have let people with Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) status sign up for Obamacare. Traynor stated that Kansas and the 18 Republican attorneys general who challenged the policy were likely to win, so he issued a stay against it.

Traynor pointed out that CMS broke the law when it decided to include DACA recipients in the definition of "lawfully present" in the U.S. DACA recipients are people who entered the country illegally as children with their parents and were protected from deportation by an executive action from President Barack Obama.

“The authority granted to CMS by the ACA [Affordable Care Act] is to ascertain whether an individual meets the requirements for lawful status. It by no means allows the agency to circumvent congressional authority and redefine the term ‘lawfully present,’” Traynor wrote.

“As it currently stands, the ACA does not allow federal healthcare subsidies or coverage for aliens who are unlawfully present in the United States,” he added.

Traynor also agreed with the Republican attorneys general that the policy could encourage illegal immigrants to stay in their states because of the healthcare benefits.

Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach, who led the lawsuit, celebrated the decision, saying, “Big win for the rule of law. Congress never intended that illegal aliens should receive Obama care benefits. Indeed, two laws prohibit them from receiving such benefits. The Biden administration tried to break those laws. But we fought back, and defeated the Justice Department.”

The states involved in the lawsuit were Ohio, Idaho, Nebraska, South Carolina, Alabama, Virginia, Tennessee, Indiana, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, New Hampshire, Kentucky, Texas, Florida, and Arkansas. They argued that the rule was arbitrary, capricious, and would encourage more illegal immigration.

In response, CMS mentioned they were reviewing the judge's decision but couldn't comment further.

This rule change was opposed by President-elect Donald Trump, whose campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt called it “unfair and unsustainable” back in May.

“Joe Biden's handouts for illegal immigrants are especially devastating to Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, and union workers who are forced to watch their jobs and public resources stolen by people who illegally entered our country,” Leavitt, Trump's incoming press secretary, said at the time.

Last month, another judge overturned a different Biden administration program that would have given legal status to hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants.

IDF strikes Assad's strategic weapons depots to keep the rebels from capturing them

The IDF launched dozens of strikes across Syria on Sunday, using intelligence from the Military Intelligence Directorate, the Mossad, and Air Force Intelligence after the collapse of the Assad regime.

The IDF stated they were aiming to decrease the large stockpiles of ammunition held by the Syrian military.

This was one of the most significant days for the IAF since the war began.

According to foreign sources, the IAF conducted over a hundred attack sorties in Syria, hitting hundreds of targets in what were once the Syrian army's weapons depots. The operations were directed from the air force's bunker by Air Force Commander Maj.-Gen. Tomer Bar.

According to Syrian media, the Air Force first targeted the anti-aircraft batteries abandoned by Assad's forces, who were retreating from the rebels. The Air Force aimed to eliminate any threats to their aircraft right from the start of the operation, quickly gaining total control of the skies over Syria.

Their mission was to strike weapons depots that housed surface-to-surface missiles, anti-tank missiles, tanks, heavy artillery, and other significant weapon stores.

Israel is concerned that these weapons could fall into the hands of groups affiliated with ISIS or Hezbollah.

The Air Force also hit border crossings between Syria and Lebanon after spotting movements from Syria into Lebanon.

Simultaneously, according to reports from Lebanon and Syria, the air force attacked a convoy of about one hundred vehicles, some armored, moving from Syria into Lebanon. These reports suggest it was a convoy of Hezbollah forces retreating from Al Qusayr in Syria's Shiite region back to Lebanon after Homs and other local towns were taken by rebels.

It was also reported that Israel bombed the scientific research center in Damascus, known for developing chemical weapons and ballistic missiles.

Later in the day, Syria reported, "Israel carried out two attacks on the military airports in Al-Maza and Khalahla."

It seems "strategic" weapons were destroyed to prevent them from being captured by rebels. The Russian Sputnik news agency reported that "the Israeli air force attacked all military airports in Damascus and its suburbs and in the southern region."

Two hours later, Syrian reports mentioned another wave of Israeli attacks on Damascus. Reuters noted, "Israel bombed the scientific research center in Damascus where chemical weapons and ballistic missile programs are managed."

BLM leaders call for violence following Daniel Penny verdict

The New York subway hero who is white, went on trial for intervening to protect passengers on the city's F train [that I have taken literally hundreds of times] when a man, who is black, threatened to kill people on board the train. Daniel Penny, a former Marine put Jordan Neely in a headlock with help from several black passengers, and sadly Neely died. "I'm gonna kill a mother-effer today, and I don't care if I go to jail," Neely yelled when Penny stepped in.

Neely had 42 previous arrests in 7 years. His family was not involved in his life and he was homeless, but his father is hoping to cash in on his estranged son's death. 

What a dad.

Now the Daniel Penny verdict has been met with threats by at least one livid high-profile activist hoping he would be convicted of killing Jordan Neely, who was threatening people on a New York City subway train last year.

After Penny was found not guilty of the criminally negligent homicide of Neely, the founder of Black Lives Matter (BLM) of Greater New York, Hawk Newsome, called on black people to attack white people in the city--exactly the same thing that Neely was threatening to do when Penny stepped in to stop him.

“We need some black vigilantes,” Newsome said during a press conference. “People wanna jump up and choke us and kill us for being loud? How about we do the same when they attempt to oppress us.”

The trial has also provided an excuse for vandalism.

Last week, law enforcement said that nine suspects who boarded the northbound F train at the Neptune Avenue station around 4:24 a.m. allegedly plastered the interior of the car with messages that said: “A man was lynched here,” according to AMNY. The statements are believed to be a reference to Neely, who died after Penny subdued him in a chokehold to keep him from hurting other passengers.

Despite Neely's official cause of death of asphyxiation, forensic pathologist Dr. Satish Chundru testified for the defense that Penny’s chokehold did not result in Neely’s death.

Chundru testified that Neely’s death was the result of “the combined effects of sickle cell crisis, the schizophrenia, the struggle and restraint, and the synthetic marijuana,” Fox News reported. 

He explained that a person high on synthetic marijuana with schizophrenia can die while involved in a struggle, even without a chokehold being used. Dr. Chundru added that even if Neely hadn’t had those other health factors, he still would not have died from Penny’s chokehold.

Chundru stated that he did not consider the chokehold as the cause of death because there were other factors involved. He also noted inconsistencies in Neely's medical records. Specifically, he mentioned that the records showed inconsistent bruising on Neely's neck and described the presence of "almost negligible" tiny bleeding spots on his eyelids. Chundru concluded that these inconsistencies did not match what would be expected from a fatal chokehold, according to a report by the New York Post at the time.

Jurors spent most of last week deliberating whether Penny was responsible for "recklessly" causing the death of Neely as part of a charge of manslaughter in the second degree. On Friday, they informed Judge Maxwell Wiley that they could not reach a unanimous decision on that count of the indictment, leading Wiley to permit Assistant District Attorney Dafna Yoran to drop the charge. This allowed the jury to consider the lesser charge of criminally negligent homicide.

When the jury reconvened on Monday to deliberate on this lesser charge, it took them less than an hour to find Penny not guilty.

Insofar as Hawk Newsome's call for violence against white people, that is not protected by the First Amendment and he needs to be held accountable for his rhetoric.

BREAKING: Nabbed! CEO murder suspect caught in Altoona, PA

The man who is suspected of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson has been captured in Altoona, Pennsylvania. The suspect is identified as Luigi Mangione and he was found with a 'ghost gun' on his person when captured. Apparently, he was identified by a McDonald's restaurant staff member who, if Mangione is successfully prosecuted, stands to make $50,000 and an additional $10,000 in reward money.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams held a presser Monday and said the suspect that “He matches the description of the identification we've been looking for” and that he is “in possession of several items that we believe will connect him to this incident.”

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said, "The suspect was in a McDonalds and was recognized by an employee who then called local police.

"Responding officers questioned the suspect, who was acting suspiciously and was carrying multiple fraudulent IDs, as well as a U.S. passport. Upon further investigation, officers recovered a firearm on his person as well as a suppressor, both consistent with the weapon used in the murder," Tisch added.

"They also recovered clothing, including a mask consistent with those worn by our wanted individual. Also recovered was a fraudulent new Jersey ID matching the ID our suspect used to check into his New York City hostel before the shooting incident," she said. "Additionally, officers recovered a handwritten document that speaks to both his motivation and mindset."

This is a developing incident.

US strikes ISIS camps and scumcrumpets in Syria: guess who isn't dead

The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) executed numerous airstrikes on Sunday targeting known ISIS camps and operatives in central Syria. The objective was to thwart the terrorist organization from capitalizing on the collapse of Syrian dictator Bashar Assad’s regime and kill as many scumcrumpet terrorists as possible.

After Assad's family had governed Syria for over half a century, Assad was compelled to flee like a coward to Russia, where he was granted asylum. [Brain Flushings had previously posted about the possibility that Assad's plane may have been shot down, but this was an unfounded rumor and has now been proven to be false.] 

Once Assad made book to Russia, a major offensive by a coalition of predominantly radical Islamist groups that captured Syria's capital city followed.

CENTCOM announced on Sunday that it had launched strikes against ISIS leaders, operatives, and encampments as part of an ongoing effort to "disrupt, degrade and defeat ISIS."

CENTCOM specifically aimed at stopping ISIS from conducting operations and to ensure the group doesn't use the current instability to rebuild its presence in central Syria, which would be a threat to the region and especially to Israel.

In this operation, CENTCOM forces targeted more than 75 sites, utilizing U.S. Air Force assets such as B-52s, F-15s, and A-10s.

CENTCOM is currently assessing the damage from these strikes and has reported no indications of civilian casualties.

Furthermore, CENTCOM stated that, in collaboration with regional allies and partners, it will persist in operations aimed at diminishing ISIS's operational capabilities during this "dynamic period in Syria."

"There should be no doubt - we will not allow ISIS to reconstitute and take advantage of the current situation in Syria," General Michael Erik Kurilla said. "All organizations in Syria should know that we will hold them accountable if they partner with or support ISIS in any way."

So who is calling the shots for the US? It's obvious our alleged President and Vice President certainly are not behind our response.

IDF terminates the employment of Hamas commander behind 10/7 massacre in Kibbutz Nahal Oz

On Friday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced that Israeli fighter jets had successfully targeted and blew away several key Hamassholes during the week. Among those receiving their virgins were Majdi Aqilan, the deputy commander of the Hamas Shati Battalion. He had a pivotal role in the bloodthirsty massacre on Kibbutz Nahal Oz on October 7 last year.

Also in line to get their virgin goats was Ahmad Suwaidan, a company commander within Hamas. This scumcrumpet was directly linked to the abduction of Israeli civilians during the same October 7 attack.

Kibbutz Nahal Oz, located near the Gaza border, suffered significantly during the Hamas-led incursion into southern Israel. The attack on this small agricultural community and its nearby military base led to the tragic loss of over 60 Israeli soldiers and 15 civilians. 

Moreover, several soldiers and eight civilians were kidnapped and taken into Gaza. Of the total 250 hostages taken by the terrorists, many have been murdered and today we believe that 101 remain in captivity. 

Whether they remain alive is unknown.

Concurrently, Palestinian sources said that on Friday Israeli tanks had encircled Kamal Adwan Hospital in Jabaliya, in northern Gaza. According to these accounts, Israeli forces infiltrated the hospital, evacuated medical staff and patients, and detained numerous individuals. The IDF has yet to provide an official statement regarding these claims.

IDF assisting UN forces in "repelling attack" in Syria

On Saturday, the Israeli army announced that its troops were helping UN peacekeepers in the Golan Heights to fend off an attack "by armed individuals," making the notion that war creates strange bedfellows very meaningful.

 Meanwhile, Israel's Foreign Minister stated that "armed forces" had entered the UN-patrolled buffer zone.

The UN force, UNDOF, reported that its personnel had seen "unidentified armed individuals in the area of separation, including approximately 20 who went into one of the mission's positions in the northern part of the area of separation," according to a UN Peacekeeping spokesperson who spoke to AFP.

"The inviolability of UN premises must be respected at all times," the spokesperson said.

In its statement, the IDF described the incident, saying, "an attack was carried out by armed individuals at a UN post in the Hader area in Syria," which is near the buffer zone.

"The (Israeli Army) is currently assisting the UN forces in repelling the attack."

Late on Saturday, Foreign Minister Gideon Saar posted on X: "During the last day, armed forces entered the buffer zone on the Syrian side of the border with Israel. Among other things, attacks were carried out on the (peacekeepers) in the area."

Saar expressed concern about the violations of the 1974 armistice agreement with Syria, stating, "Israel does not intervene in the internal conflict in Syria."

Earlier that day, Syrian rebels had captured the provincial capital of Quneitra, which is about 8 miles (12 kilometers) south of Hader, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights based in Britain.

The Syrian civil war, which had been at a standstill, saw significant rebel advances late last month, with numerous major cities being taken over.

The Israeli military also noted that its army chief, Herzi Halevi, visited the Syrian border that day. He reiterated Israel's non-intervention policy in Syria, saying, "Israel's primary focus is on observing Iran's movements and interests" while also focusing on Syrian factions to "ensure they do not mistakenly direct their actions towards us."

The military did not provide Brain Flushings nor the legacy media with any updates regarding whether the attack was still happening later in the evening.

Israel took control of most of the Golan Heights during the Six-Day War in 1967 and later annexed it, a move which has not been recognized by the international community.

UNDOF has been overseeing the buffer zone between the territories controlled by Israel and Syria since 1974.

In a notable past incident in August 2014, Islamist rebels attacked UNDOF, capturing over 40 Fijian peacekeepers and holding them hostage for nearly two weeks.

Bashar Assad cuts and runs into exile as the other Islamists conquer Syria

Syrian dictator Bashar Assad is on the run as Islamist rebels have stormed the capital city of Damascus.

One rumor has it that Assad "got out of Dodge" on an airline that made a U-turn in flight but had since disappeared from radar. Again, this is a rumor and it's early in the siege so take it with a grain of kosher salt. It is possible his plane was shot down but that is not substantiated.

Assad is best known for killing his own people to the tune of about 300,000 civilians by the use of chemical weapons, it is widely believed and had been reported by organizations such as the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW). Such chemicals in the approximate 300 chemical attacks include sarin and chlorine gas against his own civilian population.

So if his plane was shot down, the world has become a better place.

Syria has been tied up in a bloody, 13-year civil war by Islamist rebels who looked to overthrow the Assad dynasty. The apparent collapse of more than 50 years of Assad family rule over the Syrian Arabian Republic would be an incredible turn of events in the Middle East power.

A coalition dominated by radical Islamist factions managed to overthrow Assad's regime, which was supported by Iran. The terrorist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), previously linked to Al-Qaeda and now part of the rebel forces, was pivotal in removing Assad from power. Assad took over the presidency in 2000 after his father, Hafez Assad, passed away.

Abu Mohammed al-Golani, the head of HTS, who has a $10 million bounty placed by the U.S., is attempting to soften the image of the radical Islamism that characterized his combat against American forces in both Syria and Iraq. Al-Golani was once detained by the U.S. military in the early 2000s.

Experts on Syria have informed Fox News Digital that HTS is intent on establishing a totalitarian Islamist state. Phillip Smyth, an authority on Iranian proxy groups and Syria associated with the Atlantic Council, noted to Fox News Digital, "HTS is a group that is an outgrowth of Al-Qaeda and has connections to Turkey. Their endgame is to create a Talibanesque society with a few tweaks."

Assad's choice in 2011 to violently suppress pro-democracy activists during the Arab Spring, which also swept across Egypt and Tunisia, triggered a prolonged civil war. His strategy of using extreme force against his own people led to the deaths of more than 500,000 individuals. Recently, the UN has ceased updating the casualty figures, acknowledging the overwhelming nature of the conflict.

Anyway, it looks like there's going to be a new Islamist regime in Syria and it's anyone's guess what problems they will bring.

Reuters screwed up: accidentally outed fake Gaza "famine" claims

The Reuters "special investigation" published this week looked into how the world tries to prevent famine, but it ended up revealing more than just the problems with the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) system.

While the article tried to show that the IPC isn't to blame for not stopping hunger, it accidentally pointed out big flaws in how we measure famines, especially in Gaza.

The piece talked about different famines around the world, including one supposedly in Gaza, where the IPC had warned of an "imminent famine" in the north. That famine never actually happened, and HonestReporting had already shown how the IPC backed off from their initial warning.

Reuters suggests that this wrong prediction wasn't because of bad data or overblown statements but rather because of Israel. They blame "Israeli bombing and restrictions on movement" for making it hard to gather info on malnutrition and deaths not caused by violence, but they leave out some important details.

For instance, Israel has allowed nearly half a million aid trucks into Gaza since the war began, which Reuters doesn't mention. Also, there's no talk about how Hamas has been known to steal and hoard aid.

Actually, the term "Hamas" only shows up twice in the entire 4,000-word article, and both times it's just in photo captions about the "Israel-Hamas war."

🧵 @Reuters’ “special investigation” accidentally exposes more than it intended about the so-called famine in Gaza. Spoiler: There isn’t one. https://t.co/NmFd7oHVBd

— HonestReporting (@HonestReporting)

Reuters acknowledges that the IPC’s data collection in Gaza is flawed, as the organization cannot use its “preferred methods” for assessing malnutrition, allegedly due to Israel’s destruction of hospitals and clinics. This apparently includes the obliteration of all of Gaza’s scales and height boards — tools it says are critical for measuring famine.

They never mention that Hamas turned hospitals into command centers and weapons storage depots.

Humanitarian groups have reportedly trained health workers to measure children's upper arms, and this is the data used to claim there's a famine.

However, the IPC won't say who trained these workers or even who the workers are, claiming they "could be targeted by Israel."

Yes, Reuters genuinely suggests that the IDF might hunt down health workers just for reporting a famine. If this sounds like a conspiracy, that's because it is.

A more believable reason for all this secrecy might be that naming names could show that these "health workers" are also Hamas operatives.

What's even more confusing is that, despite these supposed safety worries, the IPC didn't work with Israeli officials — which they've done with other governments in similar situations. Reuters tries to explain this by saying the IPC thought Israel didn't want aid to reach the starving Palestinians.

The reality? Half a million aid trucks have made it into Gaza — even while Hamas keeps Israeli civilians as hostages.

This is the story Reuters doesn't want to tell. Instead, they go out of their way to explain why Gaza's "imminent famine" is always just about to happen but never actually does.

Sen. Tom Cotton introduces bill to mandate federal usage of term 'Judea and Samaria' instead of 'West Bank'

US Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AK) has introduced legislation that would ban the term "West Bank" by the federal government and use the term "Judea and Samaria" instead.

On Thursday, Senator Cotton introduced a bill called the "Retiring the Egregious Confusion Over the Genuine Name of Israel's Zone of Influence by Necessitating Government-use of Judea and Samaria (RECOGNIZING Judea and Samaria) Act." He explained that this new law would "align US policy language with the geographical and cultural significance of the region."

“The Jewish people’s legal and historic rights to Judea and Samaria goes back thousands of years. The US should stop using the politically charged term West Bank to refer to the biblical heartland of Israel,” Cotton stated.

U.S. Representative Claudia Tenney from New York, who is known for her strong support for Israel, also backed the bill. She said that using the names Judea and Samaria officially is important for "defending the integrity of the Jewish state."

“The Israeli people have an undeniable and indisputable historical and legal claim over Judea and Samaria, and at this critical moment in history, the United States must reaffirm this,” Tenney said. “This bill reaffirms Israel’s rightful claim to its territory. I remain committed to defending the integrity of the Jewish state and fully supporting Israel’s sovereignty over Judea and Samaria.”

US President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, has vowed to use the words Judea and Samaria instead of the West Bank.

“I can’t say something I don’t believe. As you well know, I’ve never been willing to use the term ‘West Bank.’ There is no such thing. I speak of Judea and Samaria,” Huckabee told Israeli media outlet Arutz Sheva in an interview. “I tell people there is no ‘occupation.’ It is a land that is ‘occupied’ by the people who have had a rightful deed to the place for 3,500 years, since the time of Abraham.”

If the US federal government were to officially use Judea and Samaria instead of the West Bank, it would be adopting terminology favored by Israel. This could show that US policy is moving closer to supporting Israel and might encourage more Jewish settlements in the area.

However, critics argue that changing the language could stir up more conflict in the Middle East, making it harder to achieve a two-state solution for peace between Israel and Palestine.

After the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, where Israel gained independence, Jordan began using the term "West Bank" for the region west of the Jordan River that it controlled. Since Israel took over this area during the Six-Day War in 1967, it has referred to it as Judea and Samaria.

Hezbollah now rebuilding miilitary and financial resources back merely a week after ceasefire

Hezbolah has already begun getting back to its roots as they rebuild their military and financial capabilities in order to kill the, you know, the Jews! It's only a week since the ceasefire with Israel went into effect after 13 and a half months of war, as the New York Post reports.

While the Israeli Defense Forces' (IDF) attacks from the air and on the ground have significantly harmed Hezbollah's setup and fighters, U.S. intelligence suggests that the group has begun to recruit new members, increase its own weapons manufacturing, and seek ways to keep smuggling weapons through Syria.

Reuters reported on Wednesday, citing a senior U.S. official, an Israeli official, and two U.S. lawmakers who were informed about the intelligence.

Under the terms of the ceasefire agreement on November 27, Hezbollah is not allowed to rearm.

According to U.S. assessments, Hezbollah lost over half of its weapons and thousands of fighters during the conflict with Israel. Despite these losses, it hasn't been completely wiped out. The sources mentioned that Hezbollah still possesses thousands of short-range rockets and plans to rebuild by using weapon manufacturing facilities in nearby countries, with routes leading into Lebanon.

One of the lawmakers told Reuters, "Hezbollah has been 'temporarily weakened' and its command-and-control capabilities diminished." However, the lawmaker added, "This organization is built to withstand disruption."

Washington is especially worried about what's happening in Syria, where groups of terrorists backed by Turkey have recently attacked in Aleppo and Hama, posing a big challenge to the Assad government, which is supported by Iran and Russia. Israel keeps hitting Hezbollah's smuggling paths in Syria and along the Syrian-Lebanon border to stop Iranian weapons from getting through.

A high-ranking U.S. official disclosed that the U.S. is pushing Syrian President Bashar Assad to limit Hezbollah's actions, with help from other countries in the region. Reuters mentioned earlier this week that the U.S. and the United Arab Emirates talked about possibly removing sanctions on Assad's government, but only if he stops the flow of weapons to Hezbollah, among other conditions.

Hezbollah officials claim they will keep up their "resistance" against Israel [aka those Jews, Christians,  and Arabs]. However, sources in Lebanon suggest that right now, Hezbollah's main effort is on rebuilding and fixing homes that were damaged by Israeli airstrikes in Southern Lebanon and Beirut.

Regarding Hezbollah's financial situation, Saudi-owned, London-based pan-Arab newspaper Asharq Al-Awsat reported that the terror group has begun assessing repairs to its financial arm, Al-Qard al-Hassan, which was heavily damaged by Israeli attacks during the war.

The Iranian-supported group is planning to give housing grants through a bank to help fix the homes of families affected by the war. Each family could get $12,000 to cover rent and repairs.

Even after a major Israeli air strike on October 21, the bank managed to restart its services just one week after the ceasefire began.

A Saudi newspaper noted that "the bank starting up again shows that Israeli reports of its destruction were not true." But, someone close to Hezbollah revealed that the group experienced big financial hits during the war. This insider also said that the money for rebuilding wouldn't come from Al-Qard al-Hassan, but from new funds Iran sent to Hezbollah.

On the first day of the ceasefire, Iran sent $1 billion through a local middleman, which Hezbollah intends to use for recovery projects.

So is anyone surprised that Hezbollah constantly lies to their enemies? It's known as taqiyya in Islamic scripture--lying for the sake of Islam, and mostly associated with Shia Islam. It allows for deception or dissimulation under certain circumstances and Hezbollah seems to make taqiyya-supporting circumstances up as they are needed.

Sneaky is as sneaky does.

IDF strikes Hezbollah smuggling routes on Syrian border

On Thursday night, the Israeli Air Force (IAF) conducted a significant operation, destroying numerous weapon-smuggling routes utilized by Hezbollah near the Syrian-Lebanese border, as announced by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

These strikes have reportedly diminished the operational capacity of Hezbollah's Unit 4400, which oversees the smuggling of weapons and is helping to incapacitate the terrorists from killing Israelis.

According to the Israeli Defense Forces, these actions are part of an ongoing campaign aimed at disrupting weapon-smuggling operations facilitated by the Syrian regime across the Syrian-Lebanese border in recent weeks.

The IDF also stated that Hezbollah, supported by the Syrian regime, exploits civilian infrastructure for terrorist activities and weapon smuggling, with the intent to target Israeli civilians, because their goal is genocide of the Jews, no matter how they pretend that it's the Jews [who have historically inhabited Israel for over 3,000 years] who are the occupiers.

Furthermore, the IDF emphasized its commitment to neutralizing any threats that contravene the ceasefire agreement and ensuring that Hezbollah does not recover its capabilities.

Am Yisrael Chai!

CEO Shooter and Some on the Left Are the New Faces of Evil

'Hero' of the Left

Brian Thompson, 51, was the CEO of UnitedHealthcare before he was gunned down on the dirty streets of New York City execution style. There was video of the apparently planned execution on Wednesday morning, showing the killer dressed in a green hooded jacket stepping out from behind a parked car as Thompson passes by. The killer shoots once, then has to clear his gun, which apparently has a sound suppressor mounted on it. Then he shoots again as Thompson falls and doesn't move again. Then the shooter runs, gets on an electric bike and rides off into Central Park.

New images of the killer were taken at a youth hostel where police believe the killer was staying prior to the deadly act, according to the New York Post. At this time, the name of the suspect is unknown.

The cops raided the hostel and a home in Manhattan in connection with the killing, according to West Side Rag reporter Gus Saltonstall. There is a $10,000 reward "for information leading to an arrest and conviction."

Shell casings were found on scene with the words "deny," "defend," and "depose," written on them. At this time law enforcement is looking into previous death threats to Thompson that he received before he was mercilessly gunned down.

UnitedHealthcare has been criticized for denying some of their patients' claims, but that doesn't justify murder, does it?

Former Washington Post and New York Times "reporter" Taylor Lorenz, said on the day of the murder that she wants health insurance executives "dead" a few hours after Thompson was executed. She posted her "be kind" statement on social media platform Bluesky. Her exact words, "And people wonder why we want these executives dead." 

In another post, this unkind hack reposted a different link to the Blue Cross report and included a screenshot of Blue Cross Blue Shield CEO Kim Keck. Then on X, she reposted a user who wrote, “Brian Thompson killed more US Citizens than every serial killer combined, but because he made money off it the media considered him a successful businessman and morally upstanding citizen.” 

Taylor Lorenz is an immature, childlike fraudster whose attempt at virtue signaling merely shows her soiled soul. 

"Are you glad too?"

Lorenz attempted to justify her posts about Thompson and other health insurance executives, writing, “People have very justified hatred toward insurance company CEOs because these executives are responsible for an unfathomable amount of death and suffering. As someone against death and suffering, I think it’s good to call out this broken system and the ppl in power who enable it.”

Calling for the deaths of insurance CEOs cannot be justified.

“That said, healthcare executives absolutely want people dead as long as it helps their bottom line and that’s the entire problem,” Lorenz added. “My sympathies are with the innocent people who have died or suffered after being denied coverage by greedy insurance companies.”

Ah, the softer, gentler side of Lorenz.

Other scumbags condemned Thompson and insurance company CEOs after he was murdered in cold blood. Columbia University professor Anthony Zenkus wrote, “Today, we mourn the death of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, gunned down…. wait, I’m sorry – today we mourn the deaths of the 68,000 Americans who needlessly die each year so that insurance company execs like Brian Thompson can become multimillionaires.”

How clever and virtuous to blame the deaths of 68,000 Americans on one man and then justify killing him. Spite hath no boundaries among the evil.

Fani Willis ordered to turn over communication with Special Counsel Jack Smith, J6 Committee

Fani [aka Fanny] Willis is to the American justice system as Al Sharpton is to Reverends.

A Georgia Superior Court on Tuesday found Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in default for not providing records requested by Judicial Watch related to her communications with Special Counsel jack "Get Trump" Smith's office or those regarding the J6 rally.

Judicial Watch (JW) sued Willis under the Open Records Act (ORA) and the court granted the default judgment motion JW filed.

The motion said the lawsuit against Willis was filed in March 2024, but by May, when Judicial Watch asked the court for a default judgment, Willis still hadn't responded. She was supposed to file an answer within 30 days of being served, which was on March 11. Although the proof of service was filed just two days after that, it didn't show up in the court's online records. Because of this, the court thought Willis hadn't been served yet, so in April, they ordered Judicial Watch to serve her again. Judicial Watch then resubmitted the proof that Willis was indeed served on March 11 (Post Millennial).

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis must forfeit any and all communications with Special Counsel Jack Smith and House Democrats' Jan. 6 Committee, a state judge ruled on Tuesday.

In his six-page order, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney ruled that Willis is "in default" for failing to file court documents responding to a legal challenge brought by Judicial Watch.

The conservative watchdog group filed a lawsuit against Willis in March after the Democrat district attorney denied having any of the records the group sought in an August 2023 open records request. That request aimed to obtain communications between her office and the special counsel and/or the Jan. 6 Committee.

“We’ve been doing this work for 30 years, and this is the first time in our experience a government official has been found in default for not showing up in court to answer an open records lawsuit,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement. “Judicial Watch looks forward to getting any documents from the Fani Willis operation about collusion with the Biden administration and Nancy Pelosi’s Congress on her unprecedented and compromised ‘get-Trump’ prosecution.”

Now let's hurry up and wait to see what will transpire. Many people think Willis needs to go. 

What do you think? 

French gov't collapses as PM gets no confidence vote

The French government collapsed on Wednesday as the lower house of parliament voted to remove Prime Minister Michel Barnier, the Wall Street Journal reported.

The French National Assembly has voted to pass a no confidence motion against Prime Minister Michel Barnier, garnering 331 votes, well over the required 288. This has compelled Barnier and his cabinet to resign. The vote was spurred by significant opposition to Barnier's budget austerity measures aimed at tackling the country's escalating deficits.

In an Assembly where no single party holds a majority, opposition groups united to oust Barnier, arguing that his policies imposed harsh austerity and ignored public needs, according to the Associated Press.

This vote has marked Barnier as the shortest-serving prime minister in France's modern history. Now, President Emmanuel Macron faces the task of appointing a new prime minister to ensure the continuation of legislative processes, including the critical approval of the 2025 budget.

Barnier's ousting comes after months of protests across France, with many citizens and political figures criticizing Macron for his method of appointing Barnier in a surprise snap election in September, as reported by France 24. Barnier had previously survived a similar no confidence motion in October.

Ahead of Wednesday's vote, Barnier, in a national television appeal, urged lawmakers to act with "responsibility" and prioritize "the country’s best interest."

"The situation is very difficult economically, socially, fiscally, and financially," Barnier declared on Tuesday. "If the no confidence motion passes, everything will be more difficult and everything will be more serious."

President Macron, who has insisted he will serve out his term until 2027, is facing mounting pressure from an increasing number of lawmakers calling for his resignation.

Right-wing leader Marine Le Pen, in a speech before the vote, accused Macron of being willing to "sacrifice the fate of France because of his vanity."

"Emmanuel Macron has attacked the foundation walls of the nation for the past seven years," Le Pen stated. "He alone can pull the country out of the rut it’s in [with his resignation]."

Éric Coquerel, who leads the National Assembly’s finance committee and represents the left-wing New Popular Front, urged Macron to "listen to the calls for his resignation growing from all sides."

"Today we are voting to censure your government, but more than anything else, we are sounding the death knell of a mandate: that of the president," Coquerel said.

The last instance where the National Assembly successfully toppled a prime minister was in 1962, during the tumultuous period of Algeria’s fight for independence and an assassination attempt on then-president Charles de Gaulle.

Black Church Insists MSNBC Suspend Unbelievably Rev. Al Sharptongue Over Kamala's Campaign Payoff

The Unbelievably Reverend Al Sharptongue

The National Black Church Initiative that represents 27.7 million people and 150,000 black churches across the country is calling on the far-left network MSNBC to suspend and investigate host Al Sharptongue over the covert donations his organization was paid by the Kamala Harris miserably failed presidential campaign. 

The group said Wednesday that it is "very concerned" by the "growing scandal," now that the incredibly Reverend Sharptongue has been outed and want the network to "launch an investigation" which will not somehow find a way to blame President-elect Trump for the failure to disclose Sharptongue's payoff. They want Rev. Sharptongue's suspension until the investigation is complete, and realize that it's going to take time for the network to find an actual journalist, especially an investigative journalist, to do the job of looking into why the money, all $500,000 of it, had not been disclosed when the very Reverend Sharptongue asked Harris the powderpuff questions October 3 on his MSNBC show PoliticsNation with the interview on October 20. 

The National Black Church Initiative was founded in 1991 with a mission of reducing "racial, social and . . . economic disparities" while preserving "the authority of the black church's voice." And while the wildly Reverend Al Sharptongue actually increases racial and social disparities between black and white people, they still refer to him with the honorific "Reverend."

In addition to the group focusing on disparities between black folks and white folks, they also are involved with health issues, especially those pertaining to black Americans. They have criticized the highly Reverend Al Sharptongue's in the past for taking donations from tobacco companies while opposing a ban on menthol cigarettes, a popular choice among black smokers. [Remember Willy the Penguin: 'Smoke Kools'.]

The initiative's president, the Rev. Anthony Evans, said Sharptongue is "loved and admired by many in our coalition, especially our gullible population who believe anything Rev. Al says."

Sharpton failed to disclose the money he was paid to his handful of viewers or to MSNBC executives, according to a spokes-lefty for the network.

The host has not addressed the scandal, and MSNBC has refused to comment on whether he was punished for failing to disclose the apparent conflict of interest. But the chances that the network would punish a black man who they know would attack them as racists and white supremacists would make it highly unlikely they would do anything to cross him. 

In 2010, MSNBC suspended network white hosts Joe Scarborough and Keith Olbermann for donating to Democratic Party campaigns, saying that the payments violated the network's policies that require employees to disclose political activity to company executives, but if they really wanted to, they needed to use a VPN and a third party credit card.

The Society of Professional Journalists, a prominent journalism ethics group, [no joke] has criticized MSNBC and Sharptongue over the conflict of interest, calling it a "black eye" for the network and the media industry as a whole. Mostly Reverend Sharptongue called the Society of Professional Journalists racists for using the term 'black eye.' "Why couldn't they call it a white eye? Why is it always a black eye?" he asked.

Meanwhile, former actor Rob Reiner said that if the wonderfully Reverend Al Sharptongue is disciplined, he will set himself on fire and then leave the country.
