Luna wanted more from House UAP witnesses: "Why waste everyone's time?”

Nov 20, 2024

Ask a Pol asks:

How do you think the House UAP hearing went?

Key Luna:

“Ehh,” Rep. Anna Paulina Luna exclusively tells Ask a Pol. “They didn’t answer some of the questions we were asking.”

Caught our ear:

“[The witnesses] submitted a lot of stuff to us and then when you ask them about it, they weren't answering them,” Luna told us. “So, why waste everyone's time?”

Donald Trump Indirectly Exposes the Jewish Neocons Behind Joe Biden’s Nuclear War

Trump’s mention of the Neocons perpetuating the Ukraine war serves as an indirect but pointed revelation of the true power behind the throne in Washington.

During a press conference on November 19, President-elect Donald Trump criticized the Biden administration, claiming it has brought the world closer to World War III, particularly by allowing the Ukrainian regime to use nuclear weapons to attack Russia. “Nothing is more important than avoiding that nightmare,” Trump declared. He continued, “Everyday this proxy battle [Ukraine war] continues, we risk global war.” In order to stop this nuclear war, Trump said, there needs to be clear objectives, which should include a “total cessation of hostilities. All shooting has to stop. This is the central issue. We need peace without delay.”

In the same breath, Trump made reference to a “total dismantling of the entire globalist Neocon establishment that is perpetually dragging us into endless wars, pretending to fight for our freedom and democracy abroad, while they turn us into a third-world country and a third-world dictatorship right here at home. The state department, the defense bureaucracy, the intelligence services, and all of the rest need to be completely overhauled and reconstituted to fire the Deep Staters and put America First.”

Trump’s statement contains numerous problems and contradictions, far too many to address comprehensively here. One glaring issue is that you cannot advocate for an “America First” policy while providing billions of dollars to Israel, enabling the torture, maiming, and annihilation of Palestinian men, women, and children. This was a significant challenge during Trump’s first term, and it will likely remain a major obstacle for his presidency moving forward.

It is well-documented that Trump granted Israel virtually everything it sought during his four years in office. Furthermore, he has already surrounded himself with individuals whose primary loyalties appear to lie with Israel, not the United States—raising questions about the feasibility of a genuine “America First” policy.

@Clandestine

By the looks of it, Putin whipped out a new Russian ICBM that NATO defense systems cannot intercept, but did NOT attach nuclear payloads to them.

Essentially, Putin just showed the West that he has the ability to destroy them if they keep provoking him.

It was a warning. Putin just exercised extreme restraint, while also showing Ukraine/NATO that they are outgunned.

This should be front page news on every outlet, but for some reason, it’s not. Perhaps it’s because this situation does not fit their narrative that Putin is this Hitler-esque loose-cannon who wants to conquer the world.

Putin is showing restraint. He wants diplomacy, not nuclear war. But the West continue to poke the bear.

We cannot wait until January 20th. We need Trump in office right now.

Vehicular homicide charges filed against Minnesota DFL Chair involved in fatal hit-and-run.

Cynthia “Cyndy” Martin, the chair of the 8th Congressional District DFL, has been formally charged with criminal vehicular homicide, including a special addendum for leaving the scene of a collision.

According to the Itasca County District Court’s criminal complaint, on the evening of July 3, Carter Haithcock, 19, of Goodland, was struck by Martin’s 2005 GMC Yukon while walking along the lane on Highway 169 shortly after 11:00 p.m. in Nashwauk, located in Itasca County.

After Martin’s SUV struck Haithcock and left the scene, a motorist saw Haithcock lying on the road and pulled over to call police. It was then that Haithcock, still lying on the road, was struck by another motorist. When EMT’s arrived, Haithcock was pronounced dead at the scene.

Early the next morning on July 4, Martin contacted authorities, stating she believed she had hit an owl or turkey while driving through Nashwauk the previous night.

According to the criminal complaint, Martin spent that evening having dinner at the Sawmill Saloon in Mountain Iron before driving home.

A State Patrol examination of Martin’s vehicle revealed a nonfunctional passenger side headlight, damage to the right front of the SUV and cracks in the windshield. A piece of fabric recovered from the hood “was consistent with the sweatshirt worn by [Haithcock],” the complaint read.

Martin also told authorities she did not stop after she struck something, but continued home, according to the complaint. However, investigators reviewed surveillance footage from the Nashwauk Sinclair gas station on 169.

The footage captured a dark-colored SUV, believed to be Martin’s, with a single headlight pulling over to the side of the southbound lane near the crash site and remain stopped for about 25 seconds before driving away.

Martin’s involvement denied by DFL in July

Martin, a prominent DFL activist, is pictured in multiple social media posts with Minnesota Democrats including Gov. Tim Walz and Sen. Amy Klobuchar.

Norway royal arrested on suspicion of rape… SEX, DRUGS AND FARIKAL…

Marius Borg Høiby, son of Norwegian Crown Princess Mette-Marit, is arrested on suspicion of rape

Norwegian police said Tuesday that the 27-year-old has been arrested

Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s son Marius Borg Høiby has been arrested on suspicion of rape, police have said.

The 27-year-old Norwegian, who is the stepson of the future King, is suspected of violating the criminal code ‘which concerns sexual intercourse with someone who is unconscious or for other reasons unable to resist the act’, the statement said.

Authorities said in a statement that Marius who was born from a relationship prior to his mother’s 2001 marriage to Crown Prince Haakon, had been arrested Monday evening.

‘What police can say about the rape is that it concerns a sexual act without intercourse.

‘The victim is said to have been unable to resist the act,’ police said.

Borg Høiby was detained on August 4 following a night-time row at a woman’s apartment in Oslo and accused of causing bodily harm to the resident, with whom he was having a relationship, police said.

Norwegian media reports said police found a knife stuck into one of the walls of the woman’s bedroom at the time.

He was arrested again in September for violating a restraining order.

UFO-truther Marco Rubio is ‘unstoppable force’ as Secretary of State & could finally reveal ‘alien secrets,’ expert says

Updated: 12:01 ET, Nov 20 2024

MARCO Rubio could be a key player in forcing the US government to expose what it really knows about UFOs, an expert has said.

Nick Pope, who probed the phenomena for the British government, has hailed the president-elect over his pick for Secretary of State.

He even speculated that Rubio could be an unstoppable force within Trump’s top team.

Rubio was one of Trump’s early picks, and the hawkish Republican has been at the forefront of calls for the US government to come clean about UFOs.

Just decades ago, the issue was confined to the fringes of politics but has been thrust into the limelight due to national security fears.

There have been allegations that the mystery has been covered up by the government.

Pope said Trump appointing Rubio to Secretary of State could be a game-changer.

“This is potentially very good news for the UFO community,” he told The U.S. Sun.

“In view of Rubio’s previous interest and given Trump’s statements about unidentified aerial phenomena, the combination of a pro-disclosure president and a pro-disclosure secretary of state may constitute an unstoppable force that many hope will lead to a formal announcement of the reality of the phenomenon.

“If there’s a deep-state cover-up, a Trump-Rubio combination may be powerful enough to beat the bureaucrats.”

Pope urged UFO fanatics to pay attention to any announcements made by Rubio.

Rubio has been one of the leading Senators who have urged the government to be completely transparent.

He claimed that a handful of US government officials have come forward with claims about UAP.

Rubio shared the revelation after David Charles Grusch, a whistleblower and former intelligence officer, claimed the US has found non-human craft.

In a bombshell interview with NewsNation that aired in June 2023, Grusch also alleged that the US has a UFO retrieval program – a claim that the Pentagon denied.

Grusch said he had seen evidence of the retrieval program.

“These are retrieving non-human origin technical vehicles, call it spacecraft if you will, non-human exotic origin vehicles that have either landed or crashed,” he said.

A Department of Defense spokesperson refuted the claims made by Grusch at the time.

However, lawmakers and the Pentagon’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) continue to investigate the mystery.

AARO was formed in 2022 and is where alleged sightings can be reported.

A UAP hearing was held last week, and Lue Elizondo, an ex-military officer, vowed humans were “not alone in the cosmos.”

And a report revealed the most common types of UFOs that were allegedly seen between 1991 and 2022

Orbs were among the shapes commonly reported, as were saucers and so-called Tic Tacs.

Triangular crafts ranged in size from an F-16 aircraft to a football field, according to the dossier.

But, floating brain and jellyfish-shaped unidentified aerial phenomena were also reported.

The report shed light on Immaculate Constellation - an apparent program that collates data on UFO encounters and experiences.

Pentagon chiefs denied any existence, but the report claimed the sheer existence of the program proved that the Government is aware of UFOs.

The topic of UFOs was brought up during the election campaign, and Trump admitted he knew “a lot” about the issue during an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast.

Trump claimed he spoke with pilots who shared information about alleged sightings.

Before the election, Pope told The U.S. Sun that Trump could push for “full disclosure” during his second term.

He claimed Trump could make a real change by pushing ahead and divulging information that bureaucrats in Washington have allegedly worked hard to cover up.

It would be a history-making move if Trump did push for full disclosure, according to Pope.

“The President who discloses alien existence would change history forever."

Dozens of Michigan counties have filed a lawsuit against Governor Gretchen Whitmer's Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC).

The suit challenges the MPSC's authority over local governance of green energy projects. Foster Swift Collins & Smith attorney Michael Homier stated, “We are deeply concerned that the MPSC’s ruling undermines the democratic process by removing the voices of local residents and local officials in decisions that directly impact their communities.”

The Business-School Scandal That Just Keeps Getting Bigger

The rot runs deeper than almost anyone has guessed. By Daniel Engber1/2

November 19, 2024, 11 AM ET (Nine Page Article on How Bad It Is, Academic Fraudtoo long to post, link below)

For anyone who teaches at a business school, the blog post was bad news. For Juliana Schroeder, it was catastrophic. She saw the allegations when they first went up, on a Saturday in early summer 2023. Schroeder teaches management and psychology at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business.

One of her colleagues—­­a star professor at Harvard Business School named Francesca Gino—­had just been accused of academic fraud. The authors of the blog post, a small team ofbusiness-school researchers, had found discrepancies in four of Gino’s published papers, and they suggested that the scandal was much larger. “We believe that many more Gino-authored papers contain fake data,” the blog post said. “Perhaps dozens.”

The story was soon picked up by the mainstream press. Reporters reveled in the irony that Gino, who hadmade her name as an expert on the psychology of breaking rules, may herself have broken them. (“Harvard Scholar Who Studies Honesty Is Accused of Fabricating Findings,” a New York Times headline read.) Harvard Business School had quietly placed Gino on administrative leave just before the blog post appeared. The school had conducted its own investigation; itsnearly 1,300-page internal report, which was made public only in the course of related legal proceedings, concluded that Gino “committed research misconduct intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly” in the four papers. (Gino has steadfastly denied any wrongdoing.)

Schroeder’s interest in the scandal was more personal. Gino was one of her most consistent and important research partners. Their names appear together on seven peer-reviewed articles, as well as 26 conference talks.If Gino were indeed a serial cheat, then all of that shared work—and a large swath of Schroeder’s CV—was now at risk. When a senior academic is accused of fraud, the reputations of her honest, less established colleagues may get dragged down too. “Just think how horrible it is,” Katy Milkman, another of Gino’s research partners and atenured professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, told me. “It could ruin your life.”

To head that off,Schroeder began her own audit of all the research papers that she’d ever done with Gino, seeking out raw data from each experiment and attempting to rerun the analyses. As that summer progressed, her efforts grew more ambitious. With the help of several colleagues, Schroeder pursued a plan to verifynot just her own work with Gino, but a major portion of Gino’s scientific résumé. The group started reaching out to every other researcher who had put their name on oneof Gino’s 138 co-authored studies. The Many Co-Authors Project, as the self-audit would be called, aimed to flag any additional work that might be tainted by allegations of misconduct and, more important, to absolve the rest—and Gino’s colleagues, by extension—of the wariness that now afflicted the entire field.

That fieldwas not tucked away in some sleepy corner of academia, butwas instead a highly influential one devoted to the science of success. Perhaps you’ve heard that procrastination makes you more creative, or that you’re better off having fewer choices, or that you can buy happiness by giving things away. All of that is research done by Schroeder’s peers—­business-school professors who apply the methods of behavioral research to such subjects as marketing, management, and decision making. In viral TED Talks and airport best sellers, on morning shows and late-night television,these business-school psychologists hold tremendous sway. They also have a presence in this magazine and many others: Nearly every business academic who is named in this story has been either quoted or cited by The Atlantic on multiple occasions. A few, including Gino, have written articles for The Atlantic themselves.

Business-school psychologists are scholars, but they aren’t shooting for a Nobel Prize. Their research doesn’t typically aim to solve a social problem; it won’t be curing anyone’s disease. It doesn’t even seem to have much influence on business practices, and it certainly hasn’t shaped the nation’s commerce.Still, its flashy findings come with clear rewards: consulting gigs and speakers’ fees, not to mention lavish academic incomes. Starting salaries at business schools can be $240,000 a year—double what they are at campus psychology departments, academics told me….

2/2

The research scandal that has engulfed this field goes far beyond the replication crisis that has plagued psychologyand other disciplines in recent years. Long-standing flaws in how scientific work is done—including insufficient sample sizes and the sloppy application of statistics—have left large segments of the research literature in doubt. Many avenues of study once deemed promising turned out to be dead ends. But it’s one thing to understand that scientists have been cutting corners. ==It’s quite another to suspect that they’ve been creating their results from scratch.

Schroederhas long been interested in trust. She’sgiven lectures on “building trust-based relationships”; she’s run experiments measuring trust in colleagues. Now she was working to rebuild the sense of trust within her field. A lot of scholars were involved in the Many Co-Authors Project, but Schroeder’s dedication was singular. In October 2023, a former graduate student who had helped tip off the team of bloggers to Gino’s possible fraud wrote her own “post mortem” on the case. It paints Schroeder as exceptional among her peers: a professor who “sent a clear signal to the scientific community that she is taking this scandal seriously.” Several others echoed this assessment, saying that ever since the news broke, Schroeder has been relentless—heroic, even—in her efforts to correct the record.

But if Schroeder planned to extinguish any doubts that remained, she may have aimed too high.More than a year since all of this began, the evidence of fraud has only multiplied. The rot in business schools runs much deeper than almost anyone had guessed, and the blame is unnervingly widespread. In the end, even Schroeder would become a suspect.

Gino was accused of faking numbers in four published papers. Just days into her digging, Schroeder uncovered another paper that appeared to be affected—and it was one that she herself had helped write.

The work, titled“Don’t Stop Believing: Rituals Improve Performance by Decreasing Anxiety,”was published in 2016, with Schroeder’s name listed second out of seven authors. Gino’s name was fourth. (The first few names on an academic paper are typically arranged in order of their contributions to the finished work.) The research it described was pretty standard for the field: a set of clever studies demonstrating the value of a life hack—one simple trick to nail your next presentation. The authors had tested the idea that simply following a routine—even one as arbitrary as drawing something on a piece of paper, sprinkling salt over it, and crumpling it up—could help calm a person’s nerves. “Although some may dismiss rituals as irrational,” the authors wrote, “those who enact rituals may well outperform the skeptics who forgo them.”

In truth, theskeptics have never had much purchase in business-school psychology. For the better part of a decade, this finding had been garnering citations—­about 200, per Google Scholar. Butwhen Schroeder looked more closely at the work, she realized it was questionable. In October 2023, she sketched out some of her concerns on the Many Co-Authors Project website.

The paper’s first two key experiments, marked in the text as Studies 1a and 1b,looked at how the salt-and-paper ritualmight help students sing a karaoke version of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’ ” in a lab setting. According to the paper, Study 1a found that people who did the ritual before they sang reported feeling much less anxious than people who did not; Study 1b confirmed that they had lower heart rates, as measured with a pulse oximeter, than students who did not.

As Schroeder noted in her October post, the original records of these studies could not be found. But Schroeder did have some data spreadsheets for Studies 1a and 1b—she’d posted them shortly after the paper had been published, along with versions of the studies’ research questionnaires—andshe now wrote that “unexplained issues were identified” in both, and that there was “uncertainty regarding the data provenance” for the latter. Schroeder’s post did not elaborate, but anyone can look at the spreadsheets, and it doesn’t take a forensic expert to see that the numbers they report are seriously amiss.

=The “unexplained issues” with Studies 1a and 1b are legion. For one thing, the figures as reported don’t appear to match the research as described in other public documents. (For example, where the posted research questionnaire instructs the students to assess their level of anxiety on a five-point scale, the results seem to run from 2 to 8.)But the single most suspicious pattern shows up in the heart-rate data.

MSNBC star Rachel Maddow is taking a $5 million pay cut amid growing uncertainty about the channel’s future, The Ankler reported Thursday.

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy float ending remote work for federal employees and 'large-scale firings'

The idea could affect over 1 million federal workers who are eligible for remote work. (So What) Nov. 20, 2024, 4:21 PM EST By David Ingram

Incoming Trump administration advisers Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy on Wednesday floated ending remote work for federal workers, calling the practice a “privilege” left over from the pandemic.

The two tech industry figures raised the idea in an opinion piece published online in The Wall Street Journal, saying it would be a straightforward means for shrinking the federal workforce.

“Requiring federal employees to come to the office five days a week would result in a wave of voluntary terminations that we welcome: If federal employees don’t want to show up, American taxpayers shouldn’t pay them for the Covid-era privilege of staying home,” the two men wrote.

That could affect more than 1 million federal workers. About 1.1 million federal civilian employees, or46% of civilian personnel, are eligible for some amount of telework, according to an August report from the Office of Management and Budget. About 228,000 employees, or 10% of personnel, are in remote positions with no expectation that they work in-person on any regular or recurring basis, the report said.

The Biden administration ordered federal agencies in 2023 to “substantially increase meaningful in-person work,” but it also left some flexibility in place, citing operational costs like office space, the need to recruit “top talent” and other factors.

Musk and Ramaswamy are co-heads of what President-elect Donald Trump has called a Department of Government Efficiency, although their roles are advisory and it won’t be an official department unless Congress passes a law creating it. The acronym, DOGE, is a reference to an internet meme and cryptocurrency that Musk has promoted for years.

The suggestions made in the opinion piece are some of the first concrete policy suggestions the pair have advocated for in relation to their new roles.

In the lead-up to Trump’s election and during the transition, Musk has been an increasingly present and influential figure in Trump’s orbit, repeatedly appearing with Trump in meetings with lawmakers and world leaders.

Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has taken a strict approach to remote work at his companies since the Covid-19 pandemic began to wind down. Musk announced a return-to-office policy at Tesla and SpaceX in 2022, ordering employees back for a minimum of 40 hours per week on site, though his edict was hampered at the time by a lack of space and resources, CNBC reported then.

The future of remote work for office-based employees is hotly debated. While some companies such as Amazon have joined Tesla and SpaceX in calling workers back, other companies are using remote work as a recruiting and retention tool that appears to have some staying power.

Some unionized federal workers have criticized Musk and Ramaswamy, saying they don’t know what they’re doing. (Boo Hoo)

“It is clear that Musk and Ramaswamy simply do not understand how the federal workforce is staffed or operated,” said Randy Erwin, national president of the National Federation of Federal Employees, in a statement about DOGE’s work generally.Erwin said the two tech figures “make absurd claims about government waste and bash dedicated federal employees.” His union says it represents 110,000 federal employees. (So what they all vote Democrat, they can go)

In their opinion piece, the two also suggested other ways to cut federal jobs including “large-scale firings” and the “relocation of federal agencies out of the Washington area.”They also outlined a series of other ideas for cutting federal spending and repealing government regulations and cited recent Supreme Court precedent that they said would give Trump wide leeway.

(Just wait when this starts moving,the federal employees will reveal how much worse it is, and how they've got away with it for 50 years, there's a lot more that will be exposed in this process. Complaining publicly is not a good idea, especially in an emotional state.)

TSA administrator makes bid to stay on under Trump

David Pekoske's term leading the agency doesn't expire until 2027.

Oriana Pawlyk 11/20/2024, 9:55pm ET

Transportation Security Administration chief David Pekoske is signaling that he'd like to stay on in his current role as President-elect Donald Trump begins his second term.

During a segment about Thanksgiving travel with CBS on Tuesday, Pekoske was clear that he's hoping to stay until his term ends in 2027, saying that he “loves” the role.

"It’s important for continuity in TSA to run the second term to its conclusion,” he said, adding that the agency has made numerous investments and increased partnerships not just in air travel but on surface transportation security, too.

A TSA spokesperson on Wednesday backstopped Pekoske’s comments. Pekoske “was instrumental in pushing for equal pay of all TSA employees to make them commensurate with the rest of the federal government” among other initiatives like lowering workforce attrition and increasing screener employees at airports, the spokesperson said.

“The agency has come a long way in innovation and technology under his tenure to increase security effectiveness, efficiency and the customer experience,” the spokesperson added.

A number of aviation and travel industry executives attending the U.S. Travel Association’s conference echoed that desire for continuity in interviews Wednesday.

Tori Emerson Barnes, U.S. Travel’s executive vice president for public affairs and policy, told POLITICO at the event that the industry has had a “really great working relationship” with Pekoske, who’s “leaned in, pushing innovation and has worked on really driving change at the organization.”

“He was first nominated and confirmed in Trump's first term, and so he's been a steady hand, a consistent voice that really has led the way” on these initiatives, Barnes said. “Our hope would be that he would stay until the end of his term.”

https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/11/20/congress/head-of-tsa-wants-to-stay-00190817

Was he the one that put Tulsi Gabbard on the watch list? TSA chief begs to keep his job, it certainly seems likes he’s got a cheerleading team trying to convince Trump to keep him.

Mark Milley disagrees with Trump pick on women in combat. The retired chair of the joint chiefs of staff notes that women have long played a role on the battlefield.

By CONNOR O’BRIEN and JACK DETSCH 11/20/2024, 7:00PM ET

Retired Army Gen. Mark Milley, the former chair of the joint chiefs of staff, is defending the role of women in combat — clashing with the views of Donald Trump’s choice to lead the Pentagon.

Milley, who served as the top U.S. military officer under Trump and President Joe Biden until his retirement in 2023, said at an event Wednesday that women have served in battle throughout history.

And he pointedly recalled the service of an Army nurse who braved minefields to save fellow service members and was killed in action.“Don’t lecture me about women in combat,”Milley said at a national security innovation event hosted by the Pallas Foundation. “Women have been in combat, and it doesn't matter if that 7.62 [caliber round] hits you in the chest. No one gives a shit if it's a woman or a guy to pull that trigger, you're still dead.”

His remarks come after Pete Hegseth, an Army National Guard veteran and Fox TV host nominated by Trump to be defense secretary, faced public criticism for saying women should not serve in combat.

Milley was elevated to the U.S. military’s top job by Trump in 2019 but has since been sharply critical of him. He described the now president-elect as “fascist to the core” in a book by journalist Bob Woodward.

Trump and Hegseth have been sharply critical of the military and what they call “woke generals.” Milley, who did not specifically mention the nominee during the event, made it clear to the audience that he views the military as a meritocracy.

“If you meet the standards, our military must be, and always should be, a standards-based, merit-based military period, full stop,” he said.(You assholes reduced the standards for many years to the point you have a bunch of fags, and incompetents, and whiners like you.)

Women have been allowed to serve in frontline combat roles since 2015, when then-U.S. Defense Secretary Ashton Carter ordered the U.S. military to open all jobs to women.Hegseth, who said the inclusion of women in combat units has “made fighting more complicated,” has argued that women can still serve, just not in jobs such as armor, artillery, infantry or in the special operations community.

Milley’s remarks come after the U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told reporters traveling with him in Laos earlier Wednesday that the military should not take women out of frontline combat roles.

“I think our women add significant value to the United States military and we should never change that,” Austin said, adding that his message to women in uniform was that “ we need you, we have faith in you, we are appreciative of your service, and you add value to the finest and most lethal fighting force on Earth.” (Austin is intentionally insinuating that Trump or Hegseth don't appreciate women, its women in jobs they don't have the physical power adn skillsets of men. No one is trying to get rid of women altogether.)

Milley was also pressed on whether the U.S. would continue to be a reliable international partner under Trump. Trump has often questioned the value of longstanding alliances such as NATO. Milley predicted a “retraction” in U.S. military engagement abroad over the long term, but stopped short of saying the U.S. is drifting to isolationism.

"I wouldn't say we're going to be isolationists,” Milley said. “I wouldn't go that far, but there's a probability that there'll be some sort of retraction over time — this isn't going to be instant — over time, of US military forces overseas."

Milley sidestepped questionsabout whether reports the incomingadministration could create a "warrior board" of retired military officers to review sitting generals and admiralsor attempt to court martial officers would have a chilling effect on the force or recruitment.

"I would imagine right now that there's probably some eyebrows being raised in the Pentagon or out in units. I don't think they're obsessed with it, to tell you the truth, because they don't know what it means,” Milley said. “They don't know what it consists of. No one has actually laid any of this stuff out."

JUST IN: Two ambulances "and several vans" apparently full of Secret Service have departed from Mar-a-Lago according to the Independent.

"Per pool, 2 ambulances and several vans that appeared full of Secret Service have left Mar-a-Lago in the last few minutes," reported the Independent's @AndrewFeinberg.

"The protective pool (a CBS TV crew) also reported “about 20-25 cars, two ambulances and a helicopter hovering above” entering MAL a few minutes before the vans and ambulances were spotted leaving."

The story was shot down by @RaheemKassam who said multiple sources told him the story was "not reliable."

"This is NOT an official pool report, I am told by Trump world sources. This is some recently invented CBS pool that they made up for themselves. It’s not reliable. A separate source tells me there’s nothing out of the ordinary going on," he said on X.

Nikki (Hag) Haley has thoughts on RFK Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard

The former UN ambassador offers a harsh assessment.

NATALIE ALLISON 11/20/2024, 5:52PM ET

Nikki Haley has a blunt assessment of Donald Trump’s choices of Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for high-profile roles in his administration. (Once again, no one asked for it!)

Haley, who was Trump’s most significant Republican primary opponent, argued Wednesday on her radio show against confirming Gabbard as director of national intelligence and Kennedy to lead Health and Human Services.

Haley first went after Gabbard, a former Democratic member of Congress and 2020 presidential candidate who endorsed Trump this year before announcing she was a Republican. The nomination has also raised concerns from some traditional GOP foreign policy thinkers.

“She opposed ending the Iran nuclear deal. She opposed sanctions on Iran. She opposed designating the Iran military as terrorists who say death to America every single day,” Haley said on SiriusXM’sNikki Haley Live. “She said that Donald Trump turned the U.S. into Saudi Arabia's prostitute. This is going to be the future head of our national intelligence.”

Haley added that it was “disgusting” that Gabbard, a military veteran, went to Syria in 2017 “for a photo op with Bashar al-Assad" while he was attacking his own people and has expressed skepticism that the dictator was behind chemical attacks on his own people.Haley said DNI was “not a place for a Russian, Iranian, Syrian, Chinese sympathizer.” (All lies, Tulsi should sue her for defamation)

On Kennedy, Haley argued that he is “not a health guy,” despite having spent years raising concerns about the food, medicines and vaccines available to American consumers. He should face “hard questions” from senators, she said.

“He's a liberal Democrat, environmental attorney trial lawyer who will now be overseeing 25 percent of our federal budget and has no background in healthcare,” Haley said. “So some of you may think RFK is cool, some of you may like that he questions what's in our food and what's in our vaccines, but we don't know, when he is given reins to an agency, what decisions he's going to make behind the scenes.”

Trump earlier this month announced that he won’t be asking Haley, his former U.N. ambassador, to serve in his second administration.

Republicans plot rule-busting plans for next year

The GOP-controlled Congress is poised to use the Congressional Review Act to overturn Biden administration rules.

KELSEY BRUGGER 11/20/2024, 2:37PM ET

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell declaredTuesday that Republicans are plotting touse the Congressional Review Act to kill Biden administration rules.

The Kentucky Republican, who's stepping down from his leadership post at the end of the year, said the incoming Senate majoritywas preparing to use the CRA "to rein in Washington bureaucrats' expensive interpretation of the powers over working Americans."

"Under the Biden administration, Democrats have worked relentlessly to resurrect the Obama administration's regulatory regime," he said, "from student loan socialism to job-killing energy policies to blatant infringements on property rights."

The CRA allows Congress to undo rules issued within a certain amount of time. Only simple majority votes are required in the House and Senate, and the president's signature. A number of recently issued rules or upcoming Biden administration actions are vulnerable.

Vivek Ramaswamy, who's helping lead a government efficiency task force for President-elect Donald Trump, offered a "friendly reminder" to Congress on the CRA on social media.

"The Congressional Review Act allows the House & Senate to 'fast track' a joint resolution rejecting federal regulations within 60 session-days of a regulation being finalized," he wrote. "This process has been successfully used >20 times, including 16 times at the start of Pres. Trump's first term to rescind Obama-era regulations."

In 2017, with a new governing "trifecta,"Republicans undid more than a dozen Obama regulations, including a coal mining pollution rule.

On social media, Ramaswamy added: "We can’t just complain anymore. Now that we’re back in power, it’s time to act."

‘The View’ Co-Host Sunny Hostin Forced to Read ANOTHER Legal Note About Pete Hegseth and Matt Gaetz – Joy Behar Peeved!

“The View” co-host Sunny Hostin was once again forced to read a legal note about President Trump’s nominees Matt Gaetz and Pete Hegseth.

“I have a legal note. Matt Gaetz has long denied all allegations and has not been charged with any crime. Gaetz previously dismissed allegations that he paid for sex saying “someone is trying to recategorize my generosity to ex-girlfriends…” Hostin said before reading a second legal note.

“Another legal note. Pete Hegseth’s lawyer said he paid off the woman in 2023 to head off the threat of a baseless lawsuit,” Hostin added.

Joy Behar was peeved.

“Just call the show ‘Legal Note’ from now on,” Joy Behar said.

DOL Spends Millions to Reduce Child Labor Abroad as Exploited Migrant Kids Endure Brutal Jobs in U.S.

While it allows thousands of migrant children to be exploited working brutal jobs inside the United States, the Biden administration is spending $5 million to reduce child labor abroad, this time in Latin America as well as the Caribbean. Adding insult to injury, the millions of American taxpayer dollars will go to an offshoot of the famously corrupt United Nations that claims to be devoted to promoting social justice and the international recognition of human and labor rights. It is known as the International Labour Organization (ILO) and its African-born Director General, Gilbert F. Houngbo, says his life mission is to improve the prospects of the world’s most vulnerable people.

It is not clear how the ILO will use the multi-million-dollar U.S. grant to reduce child labor in Latin America and the Caribbean, but the Biden administration explains that the project will enlist government, employers, and workers’ organizations to address labor rights challenges in supply chains. Then the entities will utilize “negotiated sector-specific pacts” to tackle the problem. “The project will bolster collaboration among these pact members, build their capacity, enhance engagement with local community organizations and other labor stakeholders,” the Department of Labor (DOL) writes in its announcement, adding that the project aims to “increase worker voice throughout select supply chains.” Brazil is set to receive the most intervention because Biden signed a 2023 pact with its leftist president, Luiz Ignacio Lula da Silva, to empower workers in the South American nation and the grant falls under that category.

Known as Partnership for Workers’ Rights (PWR), the U.S.-Brazilian deal centers around countering discrimination in the global workforce, protecting workers from climate change heat stress and raising awareness about the dangers of hazardous heat exposure, among other things. Above a large photo of Biden shaking hands with Lula da Silva the PWR website explains that more than 2.4 billion workers are impacted by workplace heat stress, posing a risk to the individuals and their families as well as their communities worldwide. “Heat stress increases mental strain and other accidents and illnesses at work, as nearly 20,000 lives are lost annually due to the 23 million occupational injuries attributable to excessive heat,” according to the PWR. “Heat can severely affect workers’ mental health, leading to increased stress, anxiety, and cognitive impairments.”

Back home in the United States thousands of illegal immigrant kids released into the country by the Biden administration are performing dangerous jobs for low wages instead of attending school and the government does not seem terribly concerned. A mainstream newspaper published a scathing exposé last year that includes dozens of specific cases and shameful details of migrant children working in low-paying, hard-labor jobs throughout the country. The reporter of the lengthy piece, titled “Alone and Exploited, Migrant Children Work Brutal Jobs Across the U.S.,” interviewed more than 100 migrant child workers in 20 states and found a secret workforce in practically every industry, violating child labor laws established in the U.S. nearly a century ago. “These workers are part of a new economy of exploitation: Migrant children, who have been coming into the United States without their parents in record numbers, are ending up in some of the most punishing jobs in the country,” the article states.

Judge Rules MSNBC Pundit Potentially Defamed Trump Attorney

By: Tristan Justice November 20, 2024

A federal court in Washington, D.C., ruled an online claim made by a legal analyst at MSNBC against a former White House attorney in the Trump administration is potentially defamatory. In September, U.S. District CourtJudge Loren AliKhan denied a motionfrom MSNBC legal analyst and attorney Andrew Weissmannto dismissa complaint filed by Stefan Passantino, who represented former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson before she became the Jan. 6 Committee’s star witness.

Passantino had previously served as head deputy ethics counsel in the Trump White House and was Hutchinson’s attorney when she was initially questioned by the House Democrats’ Soviet-style inquisition run by then-Wyoming Rep.

Liz Cheney.Hutchinson fired Passantino, who was being paid by the Save America PAC, when she decided to change her testimony before the House committee and make a series of outlandish claims immediately discredited by her own named sources.

Passantino sued Weissmann last yearafter the former deputy to Special Counsel Robert Muellerclaimed the Trump-world attorney “coached her to lie.” “This is an insidious lie,” Passantino’s lawsuit reads. ==“Ms. Hutchinson even testified, under penalty of law: ‘I want to make this clear to you: Stefan [Passantino] never told me to lie. … He told me not to lie.”

Hutchinson’s testimony can be found on page 42 of the publicly available transcript from her Sept. 14, 2022, interview with the Jan. 6 Committee. Passantino, instead, coached her as a standard fact witness to only answer questions she could recall. None of the transcripts dated Feb. 23, 2022, March 7, 2022, or May 17, 2022, show Passantino obstructing Hutchinson’s testimony.

While the transcripts were also recorded, the Jan. 6 Committee destroyed the video.

•Weissmann, however, charged Passantino with “coach[ing] her to lie” in a post to roughly 320,000 followers on X after CNN published a series of hit pieces that accused Passantinoof pressuring Hutchinson to illegally manipulate her testimony.

• On Dec. 21, 2022, CNN ran the first hit piece, which cited “sources familiar with the committee’s work” who alleged Passantino urged Hutchinson to mislead lawmakers. The network included a statement from Passantino, but made no reference to the transcript of Hutchinson’s Sept. 14 interview, in which she explicitly said he told her “not to lie.”

• CNN ran another story on Dec. 22, 2022, this one headlined “Cassidy Hutchinson told the January 6 committee she felt pressure from Trump allies not to talk and instead risk ‘contempt.’”

• “The final straw for former Trump White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson with her first attorney, paid through allies of former President Donald Trump, came when he told her to stop cooperating with the January 6 House select committee even if she risked a contempt of Congress charge, transcripts of her interviews and sources familiar with her testimony tell CNN,” the network reported.

• The second story did link to Hutchinson’s nearly 140-page Sept. 14, 2022, transcript, which was embedded on the network’s website, andreported on her testimony that she was explicitly coached “not to lie”halfway through the story. A recent report from House Republicans investigating the Jan. 6 Committee in October found that Hutchinson was communicating directly with Cheney without Passantino’s knowledge throughout his representation of her.

Three months after CNN’s stories were published and six months before Weissmann’s potentially defamatory post on X, theNew York Times reported on “several dozen prominent legal figures, including past presidents of the American Bar Association and the District of Columbia Bar,” trying to revoke Passantino’s law license.“In a 22-page complaint filed on Monday with D.C.’s Board on Professional Responsibility, prominent lawyers accused Mr. Passantino of the crimes of subornation of perjury, obstruction of justice, witness tampering and bribery,” the Times reported.

Passantino became the target of another bar complaint, this one brought in Georgia by a group called the “65 Project,” which was expressly established to intimidate attorneys into not working for Republicans.Both the State Bar of Georgia and D.C. ethics watchdogs dismissed the complaints against Passantinoby the end of March.

In October, Passantino filed bar complaints of his own against Cheney and the director of the 65 Project through America First Legal.

Ranked choice tabulation completed in Juneau, but the results won’t be certified until Nov. 30

BY: ANDREW KITCHENMAN - NOVEMBER 20, 2024 7:02 PM

Ranked choice measure

The state’s voting system was passed through a ballot measure in 2020 and the state has used the system in the 2022 election and this year.

The system has been controversial since the measure passed, with opponents arguing that ranked choice voting is unnecessarily complicated, while supporters highlighted how the open primary allows all voters to participate equally, regardless of their party affiliation.

While the repeal measure, Ballot Measure 2, was leading in vote counts from Election Day until Monday,the lead evaporated as more early and absentee ballots were counted. The division faced a deadline to finish its count by Wednesday, which was the last day under state law that the division could accept postmarked ballots mailed from abroad.

The final count in the unofficial results had 159,955 in favor and 160,619 opposed, a 664-vote margin.

Ancient demon slayer amulet corroborates missing Bible chapter

A rare fifth-century amulet depicting a Biblical demon slayer may corroborate missing scripture that claimed King Solomon had power over evil.

The 1,600-year-old bronze pendant, found in Turkey, featured imagery of Solomon defeating the devil with the ancient Greek inscription, 'Our Lord defeated the devil.'

Solomon, the son of King David, was the focus of a chapter written between the 1st and 5th centuries AD, but it was not accepted into the canonical Bible due to its emphasis on magic and demonology.

The Biden administration is trying to throw a Hail Mary to save the Colorado River before Trump takes over

By Ella Nilsen, CNN Updated 9:30 PM EST, Wed November 20, 2024 (Why is Bidan Admin getting involved in this so late?)

The Biden administration is swimming against the current to get seven Western states to agree to divvy up the Colorado River’s water in a way that would protect the river basin and the West’s largest single water source – anddo it before President-elect Donald Trump takes office, according to a source familiar with the negotiations.

It’s a Hail Mary to save the lifeblood of the West on President Joe Biden’s watch and create a sustainable plan to provide drinking water for tens of millions of people, irrigate America’s crops and power homes and industry in the years to come. But getting all states and stakeholders to agree in just two months how much water they could be entitled to for decades is extremely doubtful, if not impossible, multiple sources involved in the negotiations told CNN.

The Biden administration’s long-shot goal is the latest move in a water showdown that has simmered for years between states as the West becomes more arid and its water-guzzling population explodes. Recent winters have brought much-needed rain and snow, and states have conserved billions of gallons of water. Still, scientists warn the basin remains in a downward spiral; rising temperatures have sucked more than 10 trillion gallons of water out of the river system between 2000 and 2021, according to researchers at UCLA.

If an agreement on these complex, territorial negotiations can be pulled off before January 20 (almost a year and a half before they were otherwise set to conclude)it would avoid the spectacle of a Supreme Court battle – a possibility already being dangled by some basin stakeholders.

But after months of disagreement, the seven states that surround the river – plus the surrounding Tribal nations, remain far apart.“There are not enough drugs in the world for me to get to that position” that a consensus could be reached by late January, one representative of river stakeholders said.

The states are divided into two factions – the upper-basin states Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming and lower-basin states Arizona, California and Nevada – which do not agree on who should bear the brunt of future water cuts if reservoir levels drop. (CA pours their fresh water in the ocean, why would they get part of it?)

“We have big issues between us, the upper- and lower-basin states,” Arizona’s top water official Tom Buschatzke told CNN. “I think regardless of whether that can actually be achieved, I believe any progress we can make will carry forward into the next administration.” A new operating plan for the river must be in place by August 2026, a few months before the current agreement expires.The federal Interior Department’s Bureau of Reclamation is leading negotiations and has the authority to come to an agreement on behalf of the lower basin states if none can be reached by the deadline.

On Wednesday, the Biden administration proposed five alternatives for post-2026 river use that would protect water levels and hydroelectricity at lakes Mead and Powell, which generate energy at the Glen Canyon and Hoover dams. Those options will be reviewed by federal officials as part of a formal process while state negotiations continue to play out.

“We continue to encourage all basin partners to find a consensus agreement that meets the needs of all the river’s users,” White House national climate adviser Ali Zaidi said in a statement.

The source familiar with negotiations told CNN the public release of these alternatives is intended to push the states directionally toward a deal as soon as possible.But Buschatzke, Arizona’s top water official, said no one from the Biden administration has communicated directly to him they want to get a deal done by the end of Biden’s term.“We will try to make as much progress as we can in the days that remain in the Biden administration,” he said.

There are also unknowns in the incoming Trump administration. Trump recently named North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum as his pick for Interior Secretary but has yet to name a pick for Bureau of Reclamation Commissioner – a lesser-known but critical role that has jurisdiction over the fate of the Colorado River.The Biden administration “can start that process, and it will be Trump to finish it,” the stakeholder representative said.

Here’s why I like Trump’s new AG pick Pam Bondi

Not only is she experienced, but I look at where someone stands during times of difficulty

When Trump was being impeached for the perfect Ukraine phone call, Pam was brought in to defend him as legal counsel

Not only was that a courageous move by her, but she also won the case

When it was unpopular to stand with Trump, Pam stood strongly beside him

She’ll make a great US Attorney General

"We should all fear [her] because she's competent. We may not agree with her ideologically, but she actually knows how to do this job."

"Pam Bondi knows what she's doing. She knows what she's doing about immigration."

"She is a dangerous and effective pick, and that's frankly worse than what we would have got with Matt Gaetz."

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu Delivers Remarks on ICC Arrest Warrant

“The antisemitic decision of the international court in The Hague is a modern Dreyfus trial, and it will end the same way,” said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. His remarks came following the issuance of arrest warrants for the prime minister and other top Israeli officials by the International Criminal Court. He went on to say he is being falsely accused" of deliberately targeting civilians" in Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza, and the decision to issue an arrest warrant “was made by a rogue prosecutor who is trying to extricate himself from sexual harassment charges, and by biased judges who are motivated by antisemitic sentiments against the one and only Jewish state.” The prime minister concluded his remarks by saying “Israel does not, Israel will not recognize the validity of this decision.”

Russian President Vladimir Putin has confirmed that long-range missiles supplied to Ukraine by the US and the UK have been used against targets within the internationally-recognized territory of Russia.

A volley of six US-made ATACMS rockets was launched at Bryansk Region on Tuesday, while a number of British-made Storm Shadow missiles were fired at Kursk Region on Wednesday, the president said.

“From that moment, the Ukraine conflict previously provoked by the West acquired elements of a global nature, just as we warned more than once,” Putin said on Thursday, in a televised address to the nation.

The US and its NATO allies have previously stated they would allow Kiev to use their weapons, Putin said, noting again that such attacks could not take place without the participation of Western military personnel.

The attack on the munitions depot in Bryansk was intercepted by air defenses, causing no casualties and only minor property damage. The second strike, on a military command post in Kursk, resulted in deaths and injuries among the security and support personnel, Putin said. However, the command staff was unharmed and continued to manage the expulsion of Ukrainian invaders from that region of Russia, he added.

In response to these attacks, Russia struck a Ukrainian military-industrial site in Dnepropetrovsk using a new, non-nuclear hypersonic missile dubbed ‘Oresshnik’ (Hazel), Putin revealed.

The use of Western-supplied missiles is not going to change the situation on the ground, where Russian forces are advancing all along the front line and intend to achieve all their objectives, the president concluded.

Putin warns of retaliation against countries providing weapons to strike Russia

Moscow will respond decisively and in kind to any aggression, the president has said

Moscow reserves the right to strike the military facilities of countries that allow their weapons to be used against Russian territory, President Vladimir Putin has said.

The head of state gave a public address on Thursday, promising a decisive response to any aggression.

“We will determine the targets during further tests of our newest missile systems based on the threats to the security of the Russian Federation,” Putin stated.

The president continued: “We believe that we have the right to use our weapons against the military facilities of those countries that allow their weapons to be used against our facilities.”

According to Putin, the United States has ravaged the international security system, raising the risk of a global conflict.

The Russian president stressed that Moscow has always favored a peaceful resolution and is ready to resolve all contentious issues.

“But we are also ready for any development. Do not doubt it, there will always be a response,” he said.

The Ukrainian military has fired British-made Storm Shadow missiles and US-made HIMARS at targets located in Russia’s Bryansk and Kursk Regions, he specified.

Multiple media outlets, including Bloomberg, the BBC, and The Guardian, reported on Wednesday that Ukraine had used Storm Shadow missiles to attack Kursk Region this week. Moscow’s Defense Ministry has said that ATACMS missiles have already been used in an attack on Bryansk Region. Neither the UK nor the US have officially commented on the reports.

This week, Putin ordered the enactment of the country’s new nuclear doctrine, which says that an attack on Russia by a non-nuclear power backed by a nuclear one should be considered a joint attack by both.

We just ran payroll. The payroll taxes were 2K higher than calculated. We called the payroll company. They explained (in summary) that California has a budget shortfall, and the federal government wants money back that it lent California for UI that it "lost." They are making up for it by having business owners pay it. Keep in mind that it was around 10% of our total payroll.When people say, "Why isn't California business-friendly?" remember this.

BELGIUM 🇧🇪 The Ministry of Foreign Affairs addressed the concern about Ukraine’s use of antipersonnel mines that were supplied by the U.S.The country reiterated its full support to the Ottawa Convention, banning these weapons and urges all States to comply with the Convention.

"The U.S. decision to provide Ukraine with antipersonnel land minesexpands the use of a weapon that the international community has long condemned because of its danger to innocent civilians. And it reflects another in a long line of American policy shifts on the controversial issue in the past 30 years.

U.S. officials say the mines are needed to help Ukraine stall Russian progress on the battlefield, where Moscow’s forces are moving in smaller ground units on the front lines rather than in more heavily protected armored vehicles." (AP)

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,

During a discussion with Joe Rogan, former Green Beret Evan Hafer, noted thatif president-elect Trump decides to go to war with the cartels he could opt to use US Special Forces to destroy them.

Hafer noted “if we declare war on the cartel,these dudes are not going to understand what the fuck is going on!"

“They are in for a world of ultra violencethey’ve never actually felt before because you know, obviously this is a very capable violent organization,” Hafer added.

He continued, “They have fucking no clue if we organize these tier one units against them this is gonna be — what I would be doing if I was down there… I’d be getting ready to retire right now,”

“That’s what I would be doing. Because if Delta Force is hunting me bro, I would be so terrified,” Hafer further urged.

"I thought about this for a long time where I’m like if they turn loose Delta Force and SEAL Team 6 on cartels and pedophiles, we could just kind of like erase the problem in about two years. It’d be gone,” Hafer, the founder of Black Rifle Coffee Company, emphasised.

Feds Suspend Unconstitutional Search Program After Getting Caught on Video

DEA agents demanded the right to take a traveler’s backpack away for inspection.

A federal program in which Drug Enforcement Administration agents unconstitutionally demanded to search travelers’ luggage, without any probable cause a crime had been committed, has been suspended after the scheme was caught on video.

It is the Institute for Justice, which is fighting on behalf of victims of the program, that confirmed the government’s abrupt flip-flop.

The institute confirmed, “Today, the Department of Justice suspended the Drug Enforcement Administration’s controversial practice of having agents intercept travelers, interrogate them, and insist on searching their bags in what the agency calls ‘consensual encounters.'”

The encounters actually are anything but consensual, as the video reveals one agent insisting that he is “the government” and can confiscate a traveler’s backpack and take it away – to some unknown location – for a search.

The victim in this case explained on video that he was very concerned that the agent would, in fact, take the backpack, and then plant evidence in it.

The institute said the suspension “comes on the heels of an Office of the Inspector General report, also issued today, that criticizes the practice and refers to shocking footage of one traveler’s experience, which the Institute for Justice (IJ) released on YouTube in July.”

“Today’s OIG report confirms what we’ve been saying for years about predatory DEA practices at airports, and the allegations in our nationwide class-action lawsuit against DEA over these abuses,” said IJ lawyer Dan Alban.

“We welcome DOJ’s suspension of this program as a first step, but policy directives can be changed at any time, under this or future administrations. We call on Congress to pass the FAIR Act to permanently reform federal civil forfeiture laws to end the profit incentive, close the equitable sharing loophole, and to guarantee every property owner receives their day in court by ending so-called administrative forfeitures.”

The institute said it currently is suing the DEA and the Transportation Security Administration over the airport seizure and confiscation programs they operate.

The case is on behalf of several travelers and a class of people who have had their property seized, and it currently is in the discovery phase gathering evidence.

The IG report cited the evidence that the DEA was refusing to comply with even its own policies on consensual encounters at airports.

That failure, the IG confirmed, was creating “potentially significant operational and legal risks.”

Among the failings was that the DEA operatives were refusing to complete required documentation about their actions, and had failed to obtain the proper training.

The OG continued with criticism of DEA’s “absence of critical controls, such as adequate policies, guidance, training, and data collection,” because that creates “substantial risks” that officers “will conduct these activities improperly, impose unwarranted burdens on, and violate the legal rights of innocent travelers.”

The IG noted that when the report was given to a deputy attorney general, a directive was issued to the DEA to halt its practices.

Further, the IG noted that concerns about complaints about such activities date back decades.

Bill O’Reilly Explains What’s Actually Happening With MSNBC and Also

Gives a Warning to the Ladies of ‘The View’

Lots of people are talking about the far left cable news network MSNBC and how their ratings have completely collapsed. Rumors are swirling that MSNBC will be sold off and completely separated from the NBC News division.

Bill O’Reilly recently appeared on News Nation and spoke to host Chris Cuomo about this, claiming to know the inside scoop about what is actually happening. Love him or hate him, Bill O’Reilly knows the news broadcasting business, so it’s worth hearing him out on this.

O’Reilly even issued a warning to the ladies of ‘The View’ during his appearance.

The Daily Caller reports:

“So, they are uncoupling — their word, Comcast — MSNBC from NBC News. That means MSNBC has no resources at all. None. They’re not gonna be able to pay these people millions of dollars, Rachel Maddow, whatever she’s making. NBC News is saying, ‘We don’t want you around.’ Why? Because NBC News’ numbers, Lester Holt and ‘The TODAY Show’ are catastrophe because half the country acquaints NBC News with MSNBC and they won’t watch,” O’Reilly told Cuomo.

“So NBC is desperately trying to save the mother ship of information and they have to throw MSNBC overboard. They’re not putting anything into MSNBC. They want to sell it. So where’s Georgie Soros now? Georgie is buying radio stations. You can get MSNBC for nothing. They’ll give it to you. They don’t want any more of this.”

“Why? Because it’s hateful. Not because it’s so far left. The whole NBC-Comcast hierarchy is far left. But it’s hateful. They hate Trump. They hate people who vote for Trump. Everybody knows that.”

O’Reilly went on to predict that another network would soon dump a high-profile show.

“And you know what’s next? ‘The View.’

A new hypersonic missile, conflict escalation and a warning for NATO: What you need to know from Putin’s latest address

The use of Western-made long-range missile systems in the Ukraine conflict has drastically changed its nature, the Russian leader has warned

Russian President Vladimir Putin delivered a televised address from the Kremlin on Thursday evening, outlining Moscow’s response to recent escalations of the Ukraine conflict.

He revealed that Russia had deployed a new hypersonic missile system in a strike on Ukrainian territory, criticized the United States for escalating tensions, and reiterated Moscow’s willingness to engage in peace talks while blaming Washington for the conflict becoming global in nature.

Putin’s address comes after recent Ukrainian strikes inside Russia’s pre-2014 borders using Western-made long-range missiles, which mark a significant escalation of the conflict. His comments reflect growing tensions between Russia and the NATO countries, and signal the dangers of a potential shift toward a broader confrontation.

1. Deployment of the new Hypersonic Missile ‘Oreshnik’

Putin confirmed that Russia has used its latest hypersonic ballistic missile system, nicknamed ‘Oreshnik’ (Hazel in English), during a strike on a Ukrainian defense industry facility in Dnepropetrovsk on Thursday morning. The missile is part of Moscow’s new generation of medium-range weapons and reportedly travels at speeds of up to Mach 10 (2.5-3 kilometers per second).

Putin emphasized that no existing air or missile defense systems, including those deployed by the US in Europe, are capable of intercepting the Oreshnik. “There are no means of countering such weapons today,” he said, adding that the strike successfully hit one of Ukraine’s largest Soviet-era industrial complexes producing rocket technology.

2. The Americans are making the Ukraine conflict global

Putin accused the US and NATO of deliberately escalating the crisis by providing Kiev with long-range, high-precision weapons capable of striking Russian territory. This week, Ukraine used American-made ATACMS missiles and British Storm Shadow systems to strike targets in Russia’s Bryansk and Kursk Regions.

Putin said these attacks demonstrate the West’s intent to transform the Ukraine conflict into a global war. He stressed that these weapons could not be used without the direct involvement of US and NATO military specialists. “This regional conflict provoked by the West has now acquired global elements,” the president declared.

3. US defenses helpless against Russian hypersonic weapons

Putin highlighted the strategic advantage of Moscow’s new missile technology, stating that Western defense systems, including those at US bases in Europe, are powerless to intercept them. He framed the deployment of the Oreshnik system as a response to NATO’s increasingly aggressive actions, including Washington’s withdrawal from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty in 2019. “Missiles like Oreshnik are our answer to NATO’s plans to deploy medium- and shorter-range missiles in Europe and the Asia-Pacific,”he said.

4. Americans destroyed the system of international security

The Russian president placed blame squarely on Washington for dismantling global arms control agreements and eroding international security.

“It was not Russia but the United States that destroyed the system of international security,”Putin said, referring to the collapse of the INF Treaty and other agreements. He accused the US of clinging to its “hegemony” at the expense of global stability, stating that the Americans are “pushing the whole world toward a global conflict.”

5. Russia’s position on the deployment of missiles

Putin announced that while Russia has refrained from deploying medium- and shorter-range missiles globally, it would reassess this policy in response to US actions. He warned that future targets for Russia’s advanced systems would be chosen based on perceived threats to national security. As a “humanitarian” gesture, he stated that civilians in targeted areas would be warned in advance to evacuate.

6. A call for Peace, and a warning to the West

Despite his tough words, Putin reiterated that Russia remains open to talks, but warned of decisive retaliation against escalating aggression. “We have always preferred, and are still ready, to resolve all disputes through peaceful means,” the president said.

However, he cautioned Western leaders, particularly in Washington, to take Russia’s warnings seriously. “There will always be an answer,” to attacks on Russia, he concluded.

(This sounds strange, but Putin in the beginning of Tucker's interview he was holding a pen up, to my memory. What's the message, "you have a choice use the pen to make peace, or a sword to make war.)

Putin outlines Moscow’s response to Ukraine escalation (FULL SPEECH)

Russian President Vladimir Putin delivered a televised address from the Kremlin on Thursday evening1/2

President Vladimir Putin has promised a decisive response to any aggression, criticizing the West for escalating tensions, and reiterated Moscow’s willingness to engage in peace talks to resolve the Ukraine conflict.

Here’s a full text of Putin’s address, as providedby the Kremlin.

President of Russia Vladimir Putin: I would like to inform the military personnel of the Russian Federation Armed Forces, citizens of our country, our friends across the globe, and those who persist in the illusion that a strategic defeat can be inflicted upon Russia, about the events taking place today in the zone of the special military operation, specifically following the attacks by Western long-range weapons against our territory.

The escalation of the conflict in Ukraine, instigated by the West, continues with the United States and its NATO allies previously announcing that they authorise the use of their long-range high-precision weapons for strikes inside the Russian Federation. Experts are well aware, and the Russian side has repeatedly highlighted it, that the use of such weapons is not possible without the direct involvement of military experts from the manufacturing nations.

On November 19, six ATACMS tactical ballistic missiles produced by the United States, and on November 21, during a combined missile assault involving British Storm Shadow systems and HIMARS systems produced by the US, attacked military facilities inside the Russian Federation in the Bryansk and Kursk regions. From that point onward, as we have repeatedly emphasised in prior communications, the regional conflict in Ukraine provoked by the West has assumed elements of a global nature. Our air defence systems successfully counteracted these incursions, preventing the enemy from achieving their apparent objectives.

The fire at the ammunition depot in the Bryansk Region, caused by the debris of ATACMS missiles, was extinguished without casualties or significant damage. In the Kursk Region, the attack targeted one of the command posts of our group North. Regrettably, the attack and the subsequent air defence battle resulted in casualties, both fatalities and injuries, among the perimeter security units and servicing staff. However, the command and operational staff of the control centre suffered no casualties and continues to manage effectively the operations of our forces to eliminate and push enemy units out of the Kursk Region.

I wish to underscore once again that the use by the enemy of such weapons cannot affect the course of combat operations in the special military operation zone. Our forces are making successful advances along the entire line of contact, and all objectives we have set will be accomplished.

In response to the deployment of American and British long-range weapons, on November 21, the Russian Armed Forces delivered a combined strike on a facility within Ukraine’s defence industrial complex. In field conditions, we also carried out tests of one of Russia’s latest medium-range missile systems – in this case, carrying a non-nuclear hypersonic ballistic missile that our engineers named Oreshnik. The tests were successful, achieving the intended objective of the launch. In the city of Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine, one of the largest and most famous industrial complexes from the Soviet Union era, which continues to produce missiles and other armaments, was hit.

We are developing intermediate-range and shorter-range missiles in response to US plans to produce and deploy intermediate-range and shorter-range missiles in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. We believe that the United States made a mistake by unilaterally destroying the INF Treaty in 2019 under far-fetched pretext. Today, the United States is not only producing such equipment, but, as we can see, it has worked out ways to deploy its advanced missile systems to different regions of the world, including Europe, during training exercises for its troops. Moreover, in the course of these exercises, they are conducting training for using them.

As a reminder, Russia has voluntarily and unilaterally committed not to deploy intermediate-range and shorter-range missiles until US weapons of this kind appear in any region of the world.

Another major loss for dirty trickster @marceelias, who tried to steal an election after also interfering in the 2016 election by framing Trump in the Russiagate hoax. Recall Elias generated FBI probe so he could tell the media Trump was being investigated
