Politicians Are Hindering Rescue Efforts in North Carolina, and One Rescuer Has Had Enough “I try not to cuss but I am just so mad at the lack of Government support and I need people to hear how desperate this situation is,” Howard wrote in his caption. “I don’t have time to be nice or gentle right now. People are literally dying by the day here and it can all be fixed with Helicopters. It’s like our Government wants these people to die. They’re so incompetent, disorganized, and dishonest it’s disgusting.”

Government Wants To Ban Everything That Helps Keep Humans Alive The Biden-Harris administration’s lackadaisical response to the tragedy only proves that when it comes to natural disasters like flood, fire, and ice, Americans can’t and shouldn’t rely on the government and its Potemkin president to do anything about it. Not only are taxpayer-funded agencies and entities actively discouraging volunteers trying to help their friends, neighbors, and countrymen, but they have also reportedly threatened some of them with arrest.

US destroyers intercept Iranian missiles as Mideast crisis intensifies   Israel media reported Tuesday that the Israeli military plans to conduct “powerful strikes” on targets across the Middle East in response to the Iranian attack.

   The U.S. is also sending more military assets to the Middle East. On Tuesday, U.S. CENTCOM announced that three additional squadrons of F-15Es, F-16s, and A-10s have already arrived in the region.

Why They Hate Trump 

  What happened?  Donald Trump dared to challenge the political status quo.  By publicly questioning the economic and foreign policy decisions of the Establishment Class in Washington, D.C., he became an existential threat to a system that has long worked against the interests of the American people.  As David Plouffe, one of Barack Obama’s closest advisers, inveighed before the 2016 presidential election: “It is not enough to beat Trump.  He must be destroyed thoroughly.  His kind must not be allowed to rise again.”  Plouffe had harsher words for the guy with a wholesome cameo in Home Alone 2 than he ever had for the leaders of China, Hamas, or Iran.

  Why is this one American’s voice so threatening to the old guard?  It’s simple: President Trump is (1) a political outsider who (2) rejects the supremacy of the administrative state and (3) prioritizes Americans over foreign nationals.

Vance was great, Walz was mediocre, the moderators were vile, and the whole debate insulted Americans’ intelligence  But the worst thing about the debate was the whole damn thing. We know what matters to Americans: the economy, the broken border, crime (which the harpies didn’t ask about), and national security. What would have been a great debate would have been for the moderators to be nothing more than timekeepers who announced those topics and gave each candidate 8 minutes to speak on the topic and 2 minutes for a rebuttal.

JD Vance Calls Out Tim Walz For Signing Bill Allowing Infanticide: "That is Fundamentally Barbaric"  During last night’s debate, JD Vance called out Tim Walz for signing a bill that allows infanticide in Minnesota.

   Walz signed a bill to allows abortions up to birth. But he also put his signature on allowing infanticide, letting babies die who survive abortions. Babies survive abortions every year, including five in 2021 just in Minnesota. But the state no longer protects their lives.

   “As I read the Minnesota law that you signed … the doctor is under no obligation to provide life-saving care to a baby who survives a botched late-term abortion.”

‘He Threw The Baby In The Pan’: The Late-Term Abortion Horrors Democrats Deny Ever since the Democrat Party decided to radicalize — callously supporting abortion through the ninth month and opposing medical care for babies born during botched abortions, while simultaneously denying it even happens — our vote in November is no longer about traditional political issues or whether we even like the candidate.  We vote to save lives.

California sues Catholic hospital for refusing to abort 15-week-old twins  The lawsuit marks the first time since Roe v. Wade was overturned that a state has directly gone after a faith-based hospital because it has refused to perform an abortion.

Chinese Electric Vehicles Could Be “Weaponized” by Beijing, Report Warns  Suppliers suspected of having ties to China’s military-industrial complex pose a key risk due to the potential for built-in wireless components in EVs to be “weaponized,” which could even be used to gridlock British streets, according to the report by the China Strategic Risks Institute (CSRI) and the Coalition on Secure Technology.

College Volleyball Team Forfeits Match Against Team With Trans Player Payton McNabb was 17 years old when a male athlete who thinks he’s a woman spiked a volleyball in her face so hard that she lost consciousness. She told Daily Mail that the man “cackled in delight,” as did his teammates, when she was injured. Townhall reported this incident when it occurred.

   As a result, McNabb was left with brain damage and paralysis on the right side of her body. She gave up on her dream of going to college on a volleyball scholarship, and now faces difficulty walking. All this, because a community of parents and school staff allowed a male athlete to play on a women’s team in the name of “inclusivity” and “fairness.”

Virginia school board to pay $575K to teacher fired for refusing transgender student's pronouns  "I loved teaching French and gracefully tried to accommodate every student in my class, but I couldn't say something that directly violated my conscience," Vlaming said, adding that he was wrongfully terminated because of his religious beliefs.

The Kids Are NOT Alright: The Atlantic Reports Kids at 'Elite' Colleges Unprepared to Read  And government funded schools have responded by teaching not literacy and math, but gender ideology and critical race theory. That's why in places like Baltimore, few students are proficient in math and literacy. Or in Oregon, where governor Kate Brown suspended proficiency standards.

   In the name of 'equity', of course.
