"Iran is gearing up for war. Biden is gearing up to become Hamas' catering service."

U.S. Central Command announced that, on Saturday, "U.S. Army Vessel (USAV) General Frank S. Besson (LSV-1) from the 7th Transportation Brigade (Expeditionary), 3rd Expeditionary Sustainment Command, XVIII Airborne Corps, departed Joint Base Langley-Eustis en route to the Eastern Mediterranean less than 36 hours after President Biden announced the U.S. would provide humanitarian assistance to Gaza by sea. Besson, a logistics support vessel, is carrying the first equipment to establish a temporary pier to deliver vital humanitarian supplies."

While that all sounds very impressive on TwitterX, CENTCOM left out one tiny detail: it will take the Besson about 60 days to arrive in the Eastern Med and begin assembling the pier.

That's two months, for those keeping score at home, and by that time I wouldn't be surprised if Israel were finishing up operations at Rafah in the south of Gaza.

Also, if you're a member of Israeli's war cabinet, you're looking at likely sites for Biden's stupid pier, and seriously considering ordering the IDF to take and hold them in the next few weeks.

An excellent gun control question given to David Hogg

[Chinese immigrant] Williams continued with a simple question for Hogg, “So my question to you, David, is that — can you guarantee me, a gun owner tonight, our government in the U.S., in D.C., will never, never become a tyrannical government? Can you guarantee that to me?” Hogg, rather surprisingly, returned the honest answer, “There’s no way I can ever guarantee that any government will not be tyrannical.”

Williams then provoked appreciative audience laughter with the reply, “Well, then the debate on gun control is over because I will never give up my guns. Never. Never. And you should go to China to see how gun control works for [the] dictatorship of the CCP.”

Per Just the News

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., is preparing to bring a bill that would reauthorize section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) for 2 years instead of 5 years to the House floor on Friday as well as allow a vote on legislation related to Fourth Amendment right to privacy.

The House Rules Committee on Thursday night voted 8-4 to adopt the rule for legislation that would renew section 702 and advance a group of proposed amendments including a warrant requirement.

That's better, but isn't addressing the thousands of people who are doing illegal searches on all the emails, texts, etc. that the government is collecting, including the portal that exists at the Perkins Coie DC office

And has the government ever generated a legal basis to collect all this data? Tell me if you know.

A federal judge has granted a motion to dismiss a challenge to Georgia's citizenship verification process, state officials said.

On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Eleanor Ross granted Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's motion to dismiss.

"Ensuring that only U.S. citizens vote in our elections is critically important to secure and accurate elections," Raffensperger said in a statement. "Georgia's citizenship verification process is common sense and it works. With this ruling, we are able to continue ensuring that only U.S. citizens are voting in our elections."

This is the way.

Oh, and who filed the lawsuit against Georgia? 

  • Common Cause Georgia
  • New Georgia Project
  • GALEO Latino Community Development Fund
  • ProGeorgia State Table, 
  • Asian-Americans Advancing Justice - Atlanta
  • Gorgia Coalition for the People's Agenda

They claimed the "Georgia's citizenship verification process violated the U.S. Constitution, the Voting Rights Act, and the National Voter Registration Act." Yeah, I'm trying to figure out how making sure that voters are citizens breaks the Constitution.

In #7 JCM said: Davey Piggy is standing on bodies of his classmates.

Yes, and he doesn't care. But at least this chick made a point of forcing him to admit the obvious.

Bonjour.


I had an interesting conversation last night, touching on current cultural events, which I'll summarize in the Frontier shortly, for your edification and entertainment.

US State Department mandates demonstrated devotion to DEI ideology as prerequisite for promotions


So whoever had the bright idea to fly the rainbow flag outside the embassy in Kabul presumably has a bright career ahead of him/her/xir/them/xem/whatever.

BLS 'Super Users' Got Insider Information

An administrative employee at the Bureau of Labor Statistics corresponded with a secret list of "Superusers"--hedge funds, traders, and the huge financial firms like Blackrock and Vanguard--giving them information about the BLS' data and analyses that are used to establish inflation statistics. 

This is also known as "insider trading" and it's supposed to be illegal.
