GUILFOYLE: Trump Deserves More Love From The Democratic Party For Killing Al-Baghdadi | The Daily Caller
GUILFOYLE: Trump Deserves More Love From The Democratic Party For Killing Al-Baghdadi | The Daily Caller:
The news of a raid against an ISIS compound in Syria — which resulted in the death of the terrorist group’s leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi — and the subsequent operations to take out other top ISIS leaders were not well received by many Democrats in Washington. Instead of praising the president for neutralizing the biggest terrorist mastermind of the decade, Democratic politicians sought to attack President Trump and his effective foreign policy.

Firefighters save flag during 2-alarm blaze, shaming millionaire athletes who won't bother standing to honor it - WND:
Firefighters aren't millionaires. They aren't household names. They don't sign shoe contracts or get feted by the nation when they retire.
All they do is risk their lives to keep us safe. They save our lives on occasion. And, in Washougal, Washington, two of them saved an American flag during a two-alarm blaze last week.
Certainly puts anthem-kneelers to shame, doesn't it?

"...FBI refreshes voting security push
Last year, the FBI kicked off Protected Voices, a campaign to improve voting security at the state and local level.
The effort was just expanded for the coming year with new resources and materials, including tutorials for securing polling places.
"It is not the general practice of the FBI’s Counterintelligence Division to go to the public with information," said Nikki Floris, deputy assistant director.
"But this is a threat that not only concerns every American, it involves every American. These attacks on our elections and these efforts by foreign adversaries to influence our opinions and sow divisions within this country touch us all."...

Brits Belted: UK’s Subsidised Wind Power Obsession Leaves 3,000,000 Households Suffering Energy Poverty – STOP THESE THINGS
Brits Belted: UK’s Subsidised Wind Power Obsession Leaves 3,000,000 Households Suffering Energy Poverty – STOP THESE THINGS"Millions of British households face another bitter winter, unable to meet their rocketing power bills.
An obsession with chaotically intermittent wind power (both off and onshore) has sent power prices spiralling.
And, adding to the misery, the annual cost of renewable energy subsidies, Feed in Tariffs, fixed contract prices for wind and solar etc to British households will soon reach £12,000,000,000.
The current cost is already nudging £10,000,000,000.
While their parliamentarians squabble about the terms on which Britain will sever its ties with Europe, ordinary Brits are fretting about how they might light and heat their homes as temperatures plummet.
Heading into winter, some 3,000,000 households are already in “energy debt” and collectively owe nearly £417,000,000 to their suppliers..."

Judge OKs attacks on major Christian ministry as 'hate group' - WND
Judge OKs attacks on major Christian ministry as 'hate group' - WND:
Judge Myron H. Thompson found that the definitions of "hate group" vary so widely that the slam is protected by the First Amendment, even if it causes harm.
The ruling came in a case brought by D. James Kennedy Ministries against SPLC, which routinely labels anyone who disagrees with its pro-transgender, pro-homosexual, pro-abortion agenda as a hater or "hate group."
In fact, the ministry, which is appealing the ruling, had been prevented from participating in an online donation program because of the label.
But "the term 'hate group,'" Thompson wrote, "has no single, commonly understood meaning."

Minneapolis: Somali Gangs Are Claiming Territory & Killing To Defend It � Sons of Liberty Media
Minneapolis: Somali Gangs Are Claiming Territory & Killing To Defend It � Sons of Liberty Media"We’ve brought you several stories of the Muslim colonization of America from Florida to Maine to Michigan and Minnesota.
Many of those settling into Islamic communities in America have anything in mind but assimilation.
The latest evidence of this comes from Minneapolis, Minnesota where Somali gangs are now claiming territory and a young Somali has now gunned down another young man.
First, the story comes via a variety of local outlets, but not one mainstream outlet reported on this that I could find.
KARE11 reports:
Mahad Jama Ali, 18, of Minneapolis, has been charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of 25-year-old Mustafa Ali, of Minneapolis, according to the Attorney’s Office.
Tore from Loomered.com comments on what is causing this to occur.
“Immediately following the rapid intake and resettling of Somalian refugees, crime in Minneapolis spiked,” Tore wrote.
...The Somali gang problem is incredible and the leadership in Minneapolis and Minnesota in general is allowing it to grow and fester.
...Why are we allowing them to bring their cultural wars to our backyards?...Read all.

Climate Stalinism: The Radical Left's Green Movement | Climate Dispatch"The Left’s fixation on climate change is cloaked in scientism, deploying computer models to create the illusion of certainty.
Even more convinced of their role as planetary saviors, radical greens are increasingly intolerant of dissent or any questioning of their policy agenda.
They embrace a sort of “soft Stalinism,” driven by a determination to remake society, whether people want it or not—and their draconian views are penetrating the mainstream.
“Democracy,” a writer for Foreign Policy suggests, constitutes “the planet’s biggest enemy.”...

Bizarre Feminist "MENstruation" Commercial Shows Men and Boys Getting Their Periods
Bizarre Feminist "MENstruation" Commercial Shows Men and Boys Getting Their Periods
“MENstruation.”
It’s apparently a concept that the brand “Thinx” came up with as an ad for their line of period panties.
...The commercial, released earlier this month, starts with a boy telling his father that he’s gotten his period, and proceeds to put men in the place of women in various situations when their period starts, including a man rolling over while he’s sleeping and leaving a small bloodstain where he once was.
...The commercial ends with a swipe at men’s “discomfort” with periods.
“If we all had them, maybe we’d be more comfortable with them,” reads some text on the screen.
...the comments have been disabled for the video, signaling that reactions from viewers have been less than kind..."

WaPo Calls Fanatical, Bloodthirsty Terrorist Baghdadi, an 'Austere Religious Scholar'NTS
The Washington Post published a jaw-dropping obituary for ISIS terrorist leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi that was headlined "Austere religious scholar at helm of Islamic State dies at 48."
I love this tweet (below) from "Comfortably Smug":
Holy shit this is real
Washington Post Obituary for Baghdadi
"Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, austere religious scholar at helm of Islamic State, dies at 48"washingtonpost.com/local/obituari…
"Adolf Hitler, local painter, found dead" - Washington Post
In the same vein, Allahpundit wrote, “John Wayne Gacy, children’s party clown, dead at 52.”
Britt Hume tweeted: "The Washington Post has become unembarrass-able."
If that seems a little harsh, here are the opening lines of the obit.
If that seems a little harsh, here are the opening lines of the obit.
When Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi took the reins of the Islamic State of Iraq in 2010, few had heard of the organization or its new leader, an austere religious scholar with wire-frame glasses and no known aptitude for fighting and killing.
But just four years later, Mr. Baghdadi had helped transform his failing movement into one of the most notorious and successful terrorist groups of modern times. Under his guidance it would burst into the public consciousness as the Islamic State, an organization that would seize control of entire cities in Iraq and Syria and become a byword for shocking brutality.
As it turns out, the headline, at least, was altered by an editor..."

Brother of Sandy Hook victim blasts Joe Biden for 'lie', reveals family barred from Air Force One flight for opposing gun control - TheBlaze
Brother of Sandy Hook victim blasts Joe Biden for 'lie', reveals family barred from Air Force One flight for opposing gun control - TheBlaze:
Joe Biden claimed in a recent campaign video that he met with the families of each victim of the 2012 Sandy Hook massacre, which resulted in the deaths of 20 young child and six teachers. But the brother of one of the victims says Biden is lying.
In the campaign video, Biden claimed, "Gun violence has been a concern of mine for a long, long, time. What really got to me though, really firsthand, was what happened up in Sandy Hook. I think I met with every one of the parents and/or of the families of those who are lost."
However, 19-year-old JT Lewis, who lost his brother Jesse in the massacre, says Biden is lying.

New York Times Columnist Blames ‘Whiteness’ For Two Indian Boys Racially Abusing Black Girls in New Jersey – Summit News"A New York Times columnist blamed “whiteness” for an alleged racist attack where two Indian students assaulted an African-American girl at a high school football game in New Jersey.
Yes, really.
The two 17-year-old Indian boys allegedly used racial slurs against a group of African-American girls and urinated on one during the game at Lawrence High School last Friday night.
Who’s to blame for the attack?
White people, of course.
That’s according to New York Times columnist Nell Irvin Painter, who says that the Indian boys were “enacting American whiteness through anti-black assault in a very traditional way.”..."

Exclusive — Lee Smith's Deep State Book Excerpt: Inside ‘Objective Medusa,’ Devin Nunes’ Historic Investigation into Spygate Scandal | Breitbart
Exclusive — Lee Smith's Deep State Book Excerpt: Inside ‘Objective Medusa,’ Devin Nunes’ Historic Investigation into Spygate Scandal | Breitbart:
In mid-March 2017, California congressman Devin Nunes, then Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), found out the FBI had obtained a warrant to spy on Donald Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. And they’d used the Steele dossier, opposition research paid for by the Clinton campaign, as evidence.
But Nunes and his committee couldn’t say anything, not to the U.S. public, not even to fellow members of Congress. The FBI and DOJ had buried the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant, like so much of the anti-Trump operation, under the heading of classified intelligence.

Campus paper pulls ad with word ‘nationalism,’ editor says it would hurt students of color | The College Fix- Nationalism … connotes xenophobia,’ editor says
New York University’s student newspaper recently axed an ad placed by National Review editor Rich Lowry to promote his new book, “The Case for Nationalism,” and a campus lecture by the same name.
NYU’s Washington Square News editor-in-chief Sakshi Venkatraman put out a statement explaining her motives.
“On Sunday night during our weekly print production of the paper, I decided to pull the ad from the issue.
The ad’s pro-nationalist message does not align with the values of our paper, and after much thought, it was my decision to cancel it,” she said.
“The word ‘nationalism,’ as it exists in today’s political lexicon, connotes xenophobia and white supremacy..."..."

Ben Carson: Political correctness 'is going to destroy our nation' - WND:
Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, already under fire for a display of his faith, told a Democratic congresswoman on Tuesday that political correctness would "destroy our nation."
Last month, The Washington Post, citing sources it did not name, said HUD staff interpreted comments Carson made during a staff meeting about "big hairy men" in homeless shelters for women as a slam against transgender individuals.
At the time, HUD issued a comment to The Post that said, “The Secretary does not use derogatory language to refer to transgendered individuals. Any reporting to the contrary is false."

Kmart Property is MEGA Reminder Not to Extend Subsidy Program – Michigan Capitol Confidential:- Good Jobs for Michigan is modeled after the failed MEGA
Such programs are unnecessary, unfair and expensive.
The GJFM is a derivative of the state’s failed and now defunct Michigan Economic Growth Authority — or, MEGA — program...
- There’s a larger incentive history here, however, and it should be instructive for lawmakers: Kmart itself was offered and accepted MEGA incentive deals and still failed to perform as advertised. Another was reportedly offered to prevent the company from leaving Michigan. ...For Kmart’s second MEGA deal, in 2000, the state’s consultants predicted that the incentive deal would generate exactly 753 jobs through 2013. The tally would be split, 450 direct jobs by the company and another 303 through “spin-off” employment, they said.The claims demonstrating this kind of exactitude are striking when you consider that the company filed for bankruptcy just 17 months later. Why trust the state with its claims of job creation 13 years out when it can’t see failure looming less than two years ahead? The company ultimately moved to Illinois..."

Insurers should pay for kids' weight-loss surgery, pediatricians say"The American Academy of Pediatrics called childhood obesity an "epidemic within an epidemic" because today's children and teens are not likely to have the life expectancy of their parents.
The organization said in its latest policy statement, published Oct. 27 in the journal Pediatrics, that metabolic and bariatric surgery should be considered a safe option for those with severe obesity. Those children face lifelong risks of death associated with obesity
The organization also recommended that insurers pay for the surgery and follow-up care..."
