Sunday's Energy Absurdity: The Realities of Owning an EV vs. the Fantasies
Harsh truths about a technology that is not really ready for prime time.
David Blackmon
2 hr ago
Sunday's Energy Absurdity of the Day: An avid EV advocate, Matthew Spedding, has become an avid ET critic after actually buying one of the things and discovering the hard truth about them.
It's a fun read that only takes a couple of minutes, but it's a cautionary tale for everyone to understand. The main thing to understand is that EVs are fine so long as you go into owning one with realistic expectations about what is truly involved in the owning of one, which is quite different from the flowery fantasy world portrayed in EV makers' and politicians' misleading claims and million-dollar TV ads.
Here is Matthew’s post from LinkedIn:

Well folks, for those that followed my EV car journey, here’s why I’m NOT opting for an EV Company Car in my new position….??????
1. They are a pain in the a***
2. They are a pain in the a***
3. They are a pain in the a***
But seriously, I loved the car (I had an AUDI E-tron 55 top spec) however it was the most unpractical vehicle I have ever owned. I was grateful for the opportunity to switch to EV but I wish I’d taken one on a short term one month lease prior to making the switch.
So here’s my 8 top tips for ANYONE sitting there thinking about making the switch to EV with their company car…..
1. Get the car you want on a short term hire, or any EV car. It’s a life change, and I wish I’d trialled before I switched.
2. They lie to you about the mileage, it’s all a load of complete rubbish. If they tell you 280 miles to a full charge it’s actually 50% less if you want to drive like a normal person does or drive how you did before in a normal petrol / diesel car.
3. You don’t charge them to 100%, they advise 80% so actually the mileage they state on a full charge doesn’t matter anyway.
4. Be prepared to load your credit card into about 15 different apps, every charging station is run by a different provider - you’ll be forever sat their setting up new accounts.
5. The charging stations break a lot, plus you’ve got to wait for the person in a hybrid to stop charging their car to give them 30miles - it’s annoying.
6. Charge / range anxiety is a real thing, I thought I was hard enough for it not to bother me - but trust me, it’s a nightmare.
7. I can confirm you don’t just ‘pop for a coffee’ when it’s charging, 150KW chargers are always 100KW and they are like hens teeth. 22KW chargers are about as much use as a chocolate fire guard.
8. You’ll really appreciate time and how much extra time you need to add to your daily life to handle owning an EV.
I’m typically a very positive person but unfortunately on this occasion I feel responsible due to my precious EV posts….I’m sorry if you made the decision to switch based on my previous posts (I’m not responsible ??)
Yours sincerely,
A 6 week EV car owner.
[End]
That is all.

University of Idaho Murders: Clear Handprint Found at Crime Scene
By Cristina Laila
Published December 3, 2022 at 3:09pm
A clear handprint on a window of the house where the murders took place was tagged as evidence by police.
“I would have to believe, as I’ve said before, that they were very bloody or their clothing and certainly they would have tread themselves through blood. So they would have like perhaps touched a wall or other portions of the home. And those and that is information that would be evidence for the investigation here to try to determine who killed his people,” Williams said.
He added that police likely put the red tape on anything where it’s possible evidence may exist.
Other facts about this murder mystery:
The 911 call came in nearly 9 hours after the murders from a cell phone of one of the surviving housemate’s, however police have not revealed who made the call.
According to reports, Moscow police have received hundreds of tips from people claiming Kaylee Goncalves had a stalker, but the information has not been verified yet.
It was also revealed that Kaylee Goncalves called her ex-boyfriend several times between 2:30 am and 3:00 am just before the murders.
A dog was found alive and unharmed at the crime scene on the morning the four murdered students were discovered by a housemate inside the home.
It is unclear if the dog was barking or not.
A sixth roommate was listed on the lease at the Moscow home; police do not believe this person was involved i

In July of 2021, Young Americans for Liberty students at the University of Alabama in Huntsville were told they needed a permit to protest political issues.
The policy at the University of Alabama in Huntsville states that students need clearance three days in advance for a protest.
The YAL filed a lawsuit over this policy — saying it violates Alabama’s Campus Free Speech Act.

Police Arrest 82-Year-Old Alabama Woman For Not Paying $77 Trash Bill

Published December 3, 2022 at 4:00pm
The Valley City Hall’s Facebook page was flooded with people expressing outrage over the arrest of an elderly woman.
“Without government, who would kidnap an 82 year old for forgetting to pay her trash bill for a couple months?” One Facebook user said.
“God forbid some of your officers pool together the less than $100 to pay it. I’m sure it cost way more than that in police resources to arrest her. Mayor Riley, you have the ability to fix this nonsense by pardoning Ms. Martha. Use it.” he added.
“Good thing none of the entire police staff has a heart and could try and arrange to help an 82 year old woman with a less than $100 trash bill before coming to arrest her. Y’all just keep flaunting your heartlessness and see how far that gets you with public opinion and trust,” another FB user said.
“They treated this elderly lady like a criminal. The only thing criminal about this entire situation were the actions of the city, judge, and police department.” another said in response to Reynolds’ statement.

Man Wrongfully Convicted of NYC Subway Stabbing in 1990 to be Compensated $18 Million
By Cristina Laila
Published December 3, 2022 at 9:21pm
A man who spent more than 25 years in jail for a high-profile subway stabbing before his conviction was tossed out will receive a nearly $18 million settlement from New York City and State.
Johnny Hincapie, 50, was among a group of men accused of stabbing Utah tourist Brian Wattkins, 22, to death in 1990 at the East 53rd Street subway station, but Hincapie said he had been coerced into falsely confessing to the killing.
Watkins and his parents had just returned to Manhattan from the US Open tennis tournament when the gang of armed muggers encircled them.
Hincapie recanted his confession, but was still sentenced to 25-years-to-life in prison and ultimately served 25 years, three months, and eight days before he was released when a state judge determined that there was insufficient evidence to keep him behind bars.
Hincapie’s conviction was dismissed in January 2017.
In April 2018, Hincapie sued the city, accusing the police who arrested him of using “unconstitutional tactics to declare ‘case closed’ within twenty-four hours.”
Under the terms of the settlement, the city will pay Hincapie $12.8 million and the state will shell out $4.8 million.

The troubles for the Ukrainian troops are not confined to the basements, schools and hospitals occupied by Ukrainian troops. Russian MRLS rockets are wreaking havoc as well:
And then there are the Anti-Tank Guided Missiles, probably US supplied Javelins, being used against Ukrainian troops hunkered down in a forest:
There is no denying the bravery of the Ukrainian soldiers. But Ukraine cannot sustain losses like this for much longer. They are outnumbered by Russia and, even with Western volunteers being used as replacements, the Ukrainian losses are mounting.

Biden’s EPA Preparing to Kill Alaska Mine Project Despite Billions in Potential Revenues and Little Threat to Environment – Murkowski Opposes Too
By Joe Hoft
Published December 4, 2022 at 7:45am
how's that goofy voting system working for you now Alaska?
Biden’s EPA is preparing to kill a mine proposal in Alaska that will end billions in revenues for the state. Senator Murkowski agrees with the mine closure.
The Biden Administration and Democrats are hell-bent on destroying America.
With a wealth of natural resources under our feet, Americans are blessed. But Biden acts like China is in charge and kills actions that help America while pushing an agenda that destroys the country.
A large mining project has been in the works in Alaska for years. It will bring billions in revenues to the state and the country. However, the Democrats aren’t for prosperity in our nation.
TRENDING: "Madam Speaker, the American People Have Spoken - They Fired You" - US House Representative Lauren Boebert to Corrupt Nancy Pelosi's Face
The Daily Caller reports:
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommended prohibiting the operators of Southwestern Alaska’s Pebble Mine from disposing of waste material in the nearby Bristol Bay, a regulation that would prevent the mine from opening. However, the mine could generate billions in revenue by producing minerals that are crucial in supporting the Biden administration’s “clean energy transition.”
The EPA said Pebble Mine’s potential waste discharges would threaten nearby sockeye salmon fisheries by polluting the water and preventing the fish from spawning and reproducing, according to an agency proposal released Thursday. Despite this, the mine would extract about 1.5 billion tons of copper, molybdenum as well as other critical minerals and could deliver more than $8 billion to Southwestern Alaska, according to a report published by Northern Dynasty Minerals, the mine’s owner.
“This isn’t just about Pebble … the precedent this is setting is frightening and will be used going forward by those wanting to stop projects and will send an absolutely chilling message to the investment world about opportunities in the U.S.,” Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Jason Brune told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers found that Pebble Mine “would not be expected to have a measurable effect on fish numbers and result in long-term changes to the health of the commercial fisheries in Bristol Bay,” in its final environmental impact statement published in July 2020. However, the EPA stated that mining waste would result in the total loss of aquatic habitats important to the sockeye salmon’s survival.
Alaska’s elections were recently manipulated and conservative candidates were beaten by RINOs and a far-left Democrat. The corrupt and ultra-RINO Senator Lisa Murkowski was the beneficiary of the recent election. She is a horrible representative for her state.
RINO Alaska Senator Murkowski is opposed to the mine and therefore hundreds of well-paying jobs and billions in revenues to the country and state.

Destroyed ecosystems, drug payments, and child slavery are the legacies of the ‘renewable’ energy industry
By Olivia Murray
As conservatives, we often find ourselves on the receiving end of derision and unfounded castigation; we’re slandered with ad hominem attacks, labeled “anti-environmentalists” or “science deniers.”
Believe that property rights belong to Americans, rather than insects as the Endangered Species Act legislates? Anti-environmentalist!
Are you concerned the green agenda might be a thinly-disguised attempt to install global communism, given the fact the “green” revolution seems to be meticulously following Marx’s instruction for a cultural revolution? Climate change denier!
A quick internet search yielded these headlines:
Why Republicans Turned Against the Environment
How Republicans came to embrace anti-environmentalism
An Earth Day Reminder of How Republicans Have Forsaken the Environment
Why are Republicans fighting to pollute the air we breathe?
Republicans try to prove they are not the party of climate denial
Yet, as we know, all that is a load of baloney. Especially as conservatives, we hold a deep desire to conserve nature’s beauty and resources, for several reasons: it’s likely we’re functioning in the framework of a Judeo-Christian moral ethic which calls for us to be good stewards; and statistics show that we likely have children — what kind of conservative parent strives to leave to their progeny a toxic wasteland?
Which is why we’re painfully aware that the “renewable” or “sustainable” or “clean” energy industry isn’t so “renewable”, “sustainable”, or “clean.” In fact, undoubtedly, the environment bears extensive ecological damage from leftwing environmental policy. Data comparing wildlife deaths between the “clean” energy industry and the “dirty” energy industry found that “greenies have a lot of bird blood on their hands” — windmills and solar panels kill significantly more birds (many of them endangered) than oil spills. A few days back, I came across a report detailing a peer-reviewed study which found that offshore wind farms can have a “substantial” impact” on the coastal systems in which they’re built.
But now, there’s a new and more troubling secret festering within the industry, one of forced labor, child slavery, and payments of alcohol and drugs. This past Monday, The Guardian published an article which highlighted a recent report; some of the key findings are below:
About 2.6 million Uyghur and Kazakh people have been subjected to coercion, ‘re-education programs’ and internment in the Xinjiang region of north-west China, which is the source of 40-45% of the world’s solar-grade polysilicon. A report by the United Nations office of the high commissioner for human rights three months ago found Xinjiang was home to ‘serious human rights violations’, and the US has listed polysilicon from China as a material likely to have been produced by child or forced labour [sic].
On batteries, there were major issues with the mining… of the world’s cobalt… Amnesty International found that children, some as young as seven, were working in artisanal cobalt mines, often for less than $2 a day. Mining conditions were reportedly hazardous, and workers often did not have adequate protective equipment and were exposed to toxic dust that contributed to hard metal lung disease.
On wind energy, there had been rapid growth in demand for balsa wood used in turbine blades that had reportedly led to workers in Ecuador’s Amazon region being subject to substandard labour [sic] conditions, including payment being made with alcohol or drugs. The demand… increased deforestation, and affected the land rights of Indigenous people in Peru.
We’ve known “green energy” isn’t so green — remember this?
But now add to it these groundbreaking and heinous revelations — the green movement is a scam at all levels — yet the leftist mind promotes the true agenda of anti-environmentalism and anti-humanitarianism. ‘Slavery is bad, and so are anti-environment Republicans, but green is good! (Even though it results in real, happening-right-now slavery, and ecologic carnage.)
In recent news, California took steps towards a $559 billion dollar reparations program — how long until I’m yet again paying for reparations, this time “climate” reparations?

The sound of silence: the media almost completely ignore Twitter revelations
By Andrea Widburg
In the run-up to Elon Musk’s release of all of Twitter’s internal information regarding the Hunter Biden laptop, shadow-banning, censorship, political favoritism, etc., the mainstream media couldn’t stop talking about how evil Musk was because he was a manifest “threat to democracy.” Now that Musk has actually released that “democracy-threatening” information, almost all of the major media outlets have fallen completely silent. When it comes to a real threat to democracy—one of the bastions of the modern public square secretly and systematically working with a political candidate in a presidential election, and possibly working with government insiders, too—they believe that the greatest risk is letting the public know what really happened.
On this Saturday morning, at roughly 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time (that is, prime time for Saturday morning news), I’ve gone to all the major print, internet, and television news outlets, looking for news about Twitter. Here’s what I found, starting with the print media.
As the image below shows, the New York Times has only one Twitter article, entitled “Twitter Keeps Missing Its Advertising Targets as Woes Mount.” What the image can’t convey is that the article is three-quarters of the way down the home page:

The Democrats' Contempt for the American People
By Richard McDonough
The inflation rate is still hovering around 8-9%, in contrast with the 1.4% when Donald Trump left office. A record number of people (853) have died at the U.S. southern border in the past 12 months (and those are only the ones we know about and not including the people, including children, that were raped, robbed or killed on the trek through central America to the border). Fentanyl pouring across the Southern border is killing 100,000 Americans a year. Crime is way up in all major cities. North Korea has resumed firing ballistic missiles over Japanese territory and has restarted its nuclear weapons program, both of which had been stopped under the Trump administration. China has humiliated the United States on U.S. soil and is preparing to invade Taiwan. Russia, which, according to the Democrat-media storyline, was supposed to be Trump’s boss, invaded Ukraine soon after Biden’s inane remark that a little invasion might not be a big deal, resulting in hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths and massive economic dislocation around the world, while Trump remains the only president in the past four presidents that has not presided over Russian aggression against a neighbor. Biden, who criticized Trump for cozying up to dictators, has gone begging the Venezuela and Saudi Arabia, for oil to bring down U.S. gas prices. Economic experts are once again talking about a major recession in the near future. Trust in American institutions, including the media, the FBI, etc., is at an all-time low. One would think that in such dire circumstances Biden would display some humility, but no! Instead, he acts as if he has once again vanquished the ever elusive Corn Pop from a 1962 Delaware swimming pool.
In a press conference on November 2022 Biden’s Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to answer questions after New York Post reporter Steven Nelson yelled out a question to Dr. Fauci concerning what he had done to investigate the origins of COVID:
We have a process here. I'm not calling on people who yell and you're being disrespectful to your colleagues and… to our guest [Fauci]. I will not call on you if you yell… I'm done! I'm not getting into a back-and-forth with you.
It is not clear why Jean-Pierre is so snippy because shouted questions to the WH press secretary, guests of the press secretary or even the President of the United States by reporters have been quite common over the years. If one wants to see rude and disrespectful shouting by reporters recall some of the press behavior at Trump press conferences when, for example, he tried to tell the truth about the Steele dossier that Hillary Clinton and the DNC had purchased to frame him.
One must infer that the Biden administration does not believe that the peasants have a right to know about the origins of the Coronavirus that has, so far, killed over 6.6 million people in the world and over 1.1 million in the United States.
When Trump, who had been blindsided by the virus, was the president, Biden stated that no one who had presided over 220,000 virus deaths should be the president of the United States, but after he was installed as president with a big “D” behind his name and the death toll is almost five times what it was under Trump, Joe’s calls for the resignation of any president who has presided over so many deaths has been cancelled. The Biden administration’s and what passes for our “news” media’s new mission seems to be to prevent anyone from asking the Biden administration’s beloved Dr. Fauci, who, with his close ties to the Wuhan Lab, if he or his communist Chinese comrades had anything to do with the origins of the pandemic. One would certainly not want to embarrass Hunter’s paymasters in the Chinese Communist Party.
In fact, Democrats like Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Swalwell, etc., regularly refuse to answer questions concerning the people’s right to know how their country is being run. By contrast, the despised Donald Trump, acknowledging the peoples right to know, was very accessible to the “news” media.
Janet Yellen, who always sounds like someone found at the Arts and Crafts Room at Bellview Psychiatric (or perhaps a Harvard faculty lounge), now blames the high inflation (which, by the way, she had earlier said would not be a problem), not on herself or the Biden administration that has been printing money like it’s Monopoly money, but on the peasants for “splurging.” The American people deserve a government, not a clown show.
When asked by Zeke Miller "What do you intend to do differently," following the midterms, Biden replied "Nothing." Biden appears to have forgotten that the democratic process is supposed to be about the well-being of the American people, not that of the Democrat Party. The facts that his party, via its ballot-harvesting schemes, its bankrolling of “extremist” Republican candidates that it knew would not win in the general election, its dishonest representation of the consequences of overturning Roe vs. Wade, and Biden’s cynical buying votes with his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness scheme has managed to avoid a large “red wave” does nothing to solve problems for the American people. Despite the Democrat party’s good fortune in the mid-terms, polls indicate that a vast majority of the American people see the country on the wrong track and disapprove of the Democrat’s and Biden’s extreme leftist policies.
Biden and the Democrats clearly do not care about the suffering of the American people or the immigrants, but only for their own money and power. They obviously see the American people as sheep to be played with one hoax after another rather than answering their questions. The fact that the Democrats managed to stave off the “red wave

Democrats rig their own primaries
By Monica Showalter
Democrats have decided to move their first primaries from Iowa and New Hampshire, now to South Carolina.
According to Axios's Mike Allen in his daily emailed newsletter, it came as a surprise, and it was all about shoring up the black vote. Allen cited this report from the Associated Press:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats voted Friday to remove Iowa as the leadoff state on the presidential nominating calendar and replace it with South Carolina starting in 2024, a dramatic shakeup championed by President Joe Biden to better reflect the party’s deeply diverse electorate.
The Democratic National Committee’s rule-making arm made the move to strip Iowa from the position it has held for five decades after technical meltdowns sparked chaos and marred results of the state’s 2020 caucus. The change also comes after a long push by some of the party’s top leaders to start choosing a president in states that are less white, especially given the importance of Black voters as Democrats’ most loyal electoral base.
AP cited these lugubrious tears and flapdoodle from cynical longtime Democrat operative Donna Brazile:
Discussion on prioritizing diversity drew such impassioned reaction at the committee gathering in Washington that DNC chair Jaime Harrison wiped away tears as committee member Donna Brazile suggested that Democrats had spent years failing to fight for Black voters: “Do you know what it’s like to live on a dirt road? Do you know what it’s like to try to find running water that is clean?”
Yeah, sure.
Now, it's likely that there's some truth to the statement that Democrats are losing black voters, and placing the first primary in a state whose Democrat base would make sense from that point of view. Among Democrats such as those in the Kamala Harris campaign of 2020, there was a lot of loud grumbling about the "whiteness" of the Democrat voting base in both Iowa and New Hampshire, during the primaries, and both states preceded South Carolina which served as the lead state by the Super-Tuesday that followed.
But it's probably not the entire story.
First, there are several states with that profile, so picking South Carolina as the first state, which often decides the direction of the election for the primary winner, as well as winnows out the candidates before they can get to Super Tuesday, probably means something to Democrats.
Wasn't South Carolina the state of Rep. James Clyburn, the kingmaker among Democrats who somehow forced the sudden dropout of numerous Democrat candidates in favor of Joe Biden just as Super Tuesday beckoned? Prior to Super Tuesday, the Democrat who was winning primaries was Bernie Sanders and despite the leftist orientation of all the Democrats, they didn't like Bernie Sanders. Either he was too much of an outsider (he often played independent in electoral off years), he was too crazy for them, or Democrats believed that the self-described socialist was too unelectable among the voters in the general election. They really didn't want Bernie Sanders at the top of their ticket.
Meanwhile, candidates such as Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, and others were not attracting the support Democrats had expected they would, and they weren't winning in Iowa, either. Clyburn stepped in for Super Tuesday, tilted his hand towards Joe Biden, and the rest is history. Joe didn't even have to campaign for the Democrat machine to secure the general election for him -- through mail balloting, ballot harvesting, dead voter rolls, election season, counting season, Zuckerbucks, Twitter censorship and other electoral sleights of hand. They were an amazingly well oiled machine.
Well, now it looks as though the Clyburn machine, with all its Democrat operatives, has gotten the upper hand to halt the primary activity in states like Iowa and New Hampshire, making them just run of the mill states like any other, with the South Carolina machine calling the shots.
In a way it makes sense for the Democrats, from their own point of view, to do this -- to see their establishment machine consolidate power so that they pick who becomes president. That ends Democrat voter insurgencies like the Bernie Sanders phenomena, and Bernie being Bernie, he won't say a thing.
But it's likely to leave a lot of unhappy Democrat voters, now that the Democrat nominee will always been some part of the Biden-Clyburn machine and no outsiders will be welcome. Basically, Democrats have now rigged their own primaries. Bernie Sanders upsurges have been shut down.
You can bet they're now happy they've got all they want in the bag and they'll do all they can to rig 2024 in the general election, too.
Maybe the GOP has an opportunity among at least some of those undoubtedly disgruntled Democrats.

Jordan Peterson exploits leftist weaknesses to stymie protesters

Op-Ed: Obama Squandered a Golden Opportunity in Iran - Can a GOP Congress Now Take Action?
In November, both the U.S. and Israel held monumental elections.
For America, it was the highly-contested midterm races for the House and Senate. In Israel, the entire parliament (called the K’nesset) was up for election.
The rather bizarre hybrid government of left-leaning Yair Lapid and right-leaning Naftali Bennett and their smorgasbord coalition — all allied by little more than opposition to Israeli political giant Benjamin Netanyahu — had finally collapsed after a year of chaotic bickering.
While the election results in the U.S. are still being contested (especially in Arizona), the Republican Party has successfully seized the House of Representatives from Democratic control. In Israel, Netanyahu and other right-leaning political figures and their respective parties had a strong turnout, securing a solid majority for their right-wing coalition.
(As a side note, the election in Israel only used in-person paper ballots, and the votes were counted for the most part within 24 hours, as opposed to the U.S., where malfunctioning computers, midnight dumps of mail-in ballots, and weeks-long counting processes have suddenly become “normal” in the past two election cycles.)
As Netanyahu works to form his new government, it is clear that he will return to lead the Jewish state as prime minister. Perhaps more noteworthy, however, is the sudden rise to prominence of a controversial right-wing political figure named Itamar Ben-Gvir, who in some ways could be dubbed the Israeli Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Previously, Ben-Gvir had struggled to achieve a position of any kind of significance in the Israeli government, and had been lambasted by some as being too far-right and therefore a “violent racist.” But in the recent election, Ben-Gvir soared in the polls, effectively becoming the third most popular and successful parliamentarian in Israel (after only Netanyahu himself and the temporary incumbent, Lapid).
According to some reports, the Biden administration took note of Ben-Gvir’s expected rise in the Israeli political sphere before the election.
In September, a Biden administration official was quoted as saying, “[Ben-Gvir being part of the Israeli government] would be a huge problem for us. … Look at Ben Gvir’s history, his actions, his statements. This is not someone we want to see as part of the [Israeli] government. Netanyahu is very smart and experienced and understands the consequences of such a development.”
In other words, the Biden administration apparently attempted to interfere in the Israeli election by emphasizing its expectation that a certain right-wing politician would be sidelined in the upcoming government should he win. And — spoiler alert — Ben-Gvir did win with an outstanding turnout.
It seems that Netanyahu paid little attention to the thinly veiled and highly inappropriate threats of the Biden administration, instead granting Ben-Gvir his requested position as the national security minister, who oversees the Israeli police forces.
At any rate, regardless of the wishes of President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party, the reality is that Republicans will control the House in America, and Netanyahu and his right-wing coalition — including Ben-Gvir — will dominate the government in Israel. And that reality, along with the continued popular revolt in Iran, brings us back to the Obama-Biden era.
In June of 2009, protests and riots broke out all over Iran after the incumbent Iranian president, the radical tyrant Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, declared victory in the election despite accusations of fraud and suspicious irregularities, including exceedingly high voter turnout (in some cases more than 100 percent) as well as supposedly swinging voters in his favor in eyebrow-raising defiance of visible political trends. (Hmm… Now why does that sound familiar?)
For a year and a half, the people of Iran seethed in fury, rallying behind the much more moderate and tolerant opposition candidates who were presumed to be victorious in reality. Despite the obvious illegitimacy of Ahmadinejad, who was virulently hateful of both the U.S. and Israel and obsessive in his aspiration to acquire nuclear weapons, the Obama-Biden administration seemingly did little to nothing to bolster the legitimate Iranian opposition, even though the U.S. maintained a strong military presence in neighboring Iraq and Afghanistan at the time.
To be clear, strong support and various forms of assistance for the legitimately elected moderate opposition would presumably have resulted in a regime that abandoned most or all of the Islamic Republic’s unbridled hatred for the U.S. and Israel, ceased the sponsorship of global terrorism, and likewise scuttled the Iranian nuclear weapons program.
Instead of seizing this unprecedented opportunity, then-President Barack Obama was apparently more focused on his own agenda, which was notoriously characterized by his worldwide “apology tour” in which he expressed his shame for being affiliated with the country he led. To Obama and Biden, such policy matters were clearly more important to them than taking a stand on behalf of democracy and the peace-loving population of Iran against nuclear-minded, illegitimate, radical Islamist tyrants.
With the Obama-Biden administration catering to dangerous Muslim extremists and dictators who screamed for the destruction of the Jewish state, it was no surprise when Netanyahu began to butt heads with Obama. In many ways, this feud resulted in Netanyahu visiting the U.S. in March 2015 to speak to the Republican-controlled Congress about the looming and unacceptable threat of Iran acquiring nuclear weapons. Obama and Biden both refused to attend the speech. In fact, they snubbed their noses at the Israeli premier, refusing to even meet with Netanyahu in any capacity.
Now, as we approach 2023, many of the cards on the proverbial table are oddly similar: Biden is in the White House, Republicans control the House, Netanyahu is the prime minister of Israel, Iran is surging toward nuclear weapons and sponsoring global terrorism, and the Islamic Republic is also reeling from internal political instability that could topple the government and thereby cleanly terminate the country’s agenda of terror and nuclear holocaust.
We are left to speculate if Netanyahu will once again appeal to a Republican Congress to help stave off Iran and the related foreign policy disaster unfolding under the watch of Obama’s former sidekick. And if Netanyahu does take such a course of action, will the Republicans in Congress be able to effectively take action to bring Iran to peaceful moderation — a golden opportunity previously squandered by Obama and Biden more than a decade ago?
Only time will tell… But Netanyahu’s rhetoric and political history leave few in doubt that he and the state of Israel under his leadership simply will not tolerate a radical Islamist, nuclear-armed regime in Iran.

Biden Facing Major Rebellion as 'Rank and File' Will Openly Refuse Orders: Report
Members of the U.S. Air Marshals service are so fed up with the Biden administration’s abuse of the service, and its decision to remove marshals from flights and instead sending them to work on the southern border with illegals, that they are reportedly planning an open rebellion.
The Biden regime has been removing marshals from flights — leaving those planes to fly unprotected — and sending them to the border with Mexico to transport, feed, and care for the tens of thousands of illegals flooding the country creating a massive border crisis.
But a growing number of marshals are organizing to resist this illogical use of their services that is turning them into babysitters for illegals and are plotting an organized campaign against the orders.
“The rank-and-file air marshals are going to refuse to deploy and risk termination,” David Londo, president of the Air Marshal National Council, recently told the Washington Examiner. “You’re almost going to have a mutiny of a federal agency, which is unheard of.”
According to the report, Biden is leaving only one in 100 flights staffed with an air marshal, leaving our flights at one-eighth of the protection rate that normal coverage allows.

140 MPH Police Chase Caught on Live TV - Dramatic Ending Comes When Suspect's 3 Carjacking Attempts Go Wrong
California police apprehended a suspect on Thursday after a dramatic pursuit in which he seemingly tried to carjack three vehicles.
Los Angeles Police Department officers began chasing the man, who was allegedly armed, after he entered a car in downtown LA and drove away from them, according to CBS News.
The California Highway Patrol took over the pursuit after the man drove onto Interstate 10, later traveling on California 60 at speeds of up to 140 miles an hour in a bid to evade arrest.
“This is where it could really get dangerous for the public,” a KCBS-TV journalist warned as he watched the suspect drive off the highway and onto a municipal street at 80 mph.
In a shocking twist, the suspect appeared to try to carjack three vehicles after ditching the first car.

Is the Right Man Behind Bars in the Malibu Creek State Park Shooting?
By Joe Hoft
Published December 3, 2022 at 12:00pm
But was this the right guy? After four years there is still no court date in the case.
Woods writes:
For the last 13 years, there have been four high profile cases in Malibu Canyon that have had serious issues with law enforcement cover-ups, corruption and intentionally misleading the public and media.
All these cases have one common denominator, (now retired) Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Sergeant Tui Wright.
Sergeant Wright was in charge of the searches in all missing persons cases, most notably the unsolved ones, as well as conducted independent investigations in the Malibu Creek State Park Shootings.
Wright has a history of court documented psychological issues, PTSD and has on-record expressed the capacity to fatally harm others dating back to 2012.
The most famous case Wright was involved in, is the death of Tristan Beaudette.

Dog the Bounty Hunter’s ‘Very Healthy’ Right-Hand Man Dies: ‘Shocked and Saddened by the Sudden Passing’
By Jack Davis, The Western Journal
Published December 2, 2022 at 5:10pm
Robinson’s wife wrote about his death on Facebook. The couple got married in May.
“My husband David John Robinson passed away suddenly at our home on November 30, 2022. David was very healthy and was on a work call in our dining room at home when he collapsed,” Brooke wrote.
“Life saving maneuvers were attempted and paramedics were called. David died in my arms.”
She added: “We ask again for time and space to grieve for the husband, father, brother and friend that was lost.”
She also pushed back against speculation about the cause of her husband’s death.
“The rumors of a heart attack and stroke have already been ruled out,” she wrote.
Robinson’s ex-wife, who goes by the name Rainy Robinson, said his death is a mystery.
“It’s sad. They are going to do an autopsy because he was so young. He just literally turned 50,” she said, according to People.
“He had the best sense of humor. Just a kind-hearted man. A sweet guy. He was a road racer, so he loved those fast motorcycles. He would do 200 miles an hour.
“I am sure he is a little disappointed that he instantly died. Fell out of a chair. I am sure he would have much rather been going 250 miles around Laguna race track.”
Rainy Robinson said her ex-husband was close to the Chapmans.
“Dog really loved him. Beth adored him,” she said, referring to Chapman’s late wife, who died in 2019.
