San Francisco has shelved its plans for killer police robots, as city supervisors voted down the controversial policy following widespread criticism.
"In a complete reversal, the Board of Supervisors just voted for a military equipment policy that bans police from using robots to kill," board member Dean Preston tweeted Tuesday. "Thank you to all the residents and civil rights advocates who made their voices heard!"
San Francisco's board of supervisors voted Tuesday to pause the program that would allow the city's police department to use 17 robots, armed with explosives, to kill people in "potentially deadly force situations,"

Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) said Tuesday on CNN’s “The Situation Room” that he is worried the Republican controlled House will hold “crazy hearings” attacking President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.
Anchor Wolf Blitzer said, “You said in the past, senator, you would support a 2024 run for President Biden. Given where things stand now, do you still feel that way?”
Booker said, “Oh, very strongly if the president makes the decision to run. I don’t think we can point to any president, maybe going back to LBJ that a president has had as much of a successful two years.

Joe Biden traveled to Phoenix, Arizona, on Tuesday.
Was he finally taking that long-called-for, first trip to the border? No such luck.
As we reported, shortly before he left, he was asked why wouldn’t he be visiting the border. His response? There are “more important things going on.” (Tweet/Video) There you have it, right there. He doesn’t give a rip about the border invasion, our border towns and resources being overwhelmed, the flood of illegal aliens, or the crime and drugs imported by the cartels harming and killing Americans. None of that matters to him.

The owner of a Philadelphia gas station recently reported hiring a security team armed with AR-15s, and shotguns and decked out in Kevlar vests as he fights to combat the city's ongoing crime crisis.
Neil Patel, who oversees a Karco gas station in North Philadelphia, said he hired state S.I.T.E. agents to protect his employees and customers after several recent incidents during which his store was ransacked.
Patel told a local Fox outlet that criminals are 'forcing us to hire the security, high-level security, state-level.'
'We are tired of this nonsense; robbery, drug trafficking, hanging around, gangs,' he added.

Imperial Japan launched a devastating Sunday morning surprise attack on the U.S. Navy and other military assets at Pearl Harbor, rousing a "sleeping giant" and thrusting an enraged America into World War II, on this day in history, Dec. 7, 1941. (Video) "For nearly two hours, Japanese firepower rained down upon American ships and servicemen," reports the National World War II Museum.
The savage raid by aircraft carrier-borne warplanes sunk or damaged 21 U.S. warships — including the USS Arizona and USS Oklahoma — destroyed or damaged 347 aircraft, and killed 2,403 Americans.

Just in time for Christmas, actor Kirk Cameron joined the stable of Brave Book authors with a newly released children’s book he hopes will help “fight back” against the “toxic ideas” indoctrinating America’s youth.
No matter the denials, instances of Marxist ideologies being taught throughout the K-12 government education system are widespread and, worse yet, contrary voices are being removed. As such, Cameron, who has made inroads combating secularism (arguably a religion unto itself) through the promotion of homeschooling and his project the American Campfire Revival (ACR), teamed up with the conservative publisher to rebuild “love for God, love for family, and love for country.”

Walmart's CEO has warned that the retail giant may have to hike prices and shutter some stores amid 'historically high' thefts.
Speaking on CNBC's Squawk Box Tuesday, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon admitted that theft has become a major issue for the chain known for its low prices, saying woke district attorneys' lenient policies need to be 'corrected.'
'If that's not corrected over time, prices will be higher and our stores will close,' he told co-host Rebecca Quick.
McMillon did not specify in the interview which locations have experienced this record-high level of shoplifting, but his announcement comes after Walmarts in Los Angeles resorted to locking up most of their inventory

New York is poised to become the sixth state to legalize ‘human composting’ — which sees people turned into soil.
For $7,000, bodies are decomposed in 'coffins' for two months before the resulting soil is handed to loved ones to sprinkle over rose patches, trees or a nature reserve.
It has already been legalized in California, Colorado, Oregon, Vermont and Washington, with more than 200 Americans opting for the process to date.
And the latest eco-craze is surging in popularity with the center pioneering human composting — Recompose — tripling in size in just two years. They now have 1,200 people on the ‘waiting’ list.

The Justice Department announced plans to monitor the Georgia Senate runoff election between Sen. Raphael Warnock and Herschel Walker in four counties to ensure federal voting rights are protected on Tuesday.
Monitors from the department’s Civil Rights Division and U.S. Attorney’s Office will be dispatched on Tuesday to Cobb County, Fulton County, Gwinnett County and Macon-Bibb County.
Election day monitors were a point of contention in some states during last month’s midterm election. State officials from Florida and Missouri rejected the Justice Department’s plan to send monitors to counties in their states, arguing the department did not clearly state a reason to do so.

The U.S. Supreme Court has refused to hear a case alleging that Facebook and Dominion Voting Systems had an illegal and undue influence on the 2020 elections.
The court rejected the appeal from eight Americans without comment.
The group was led by Kevin O’Rourke and had lost two previous rounds in court. In May, U.S. District Court Judge Timothy Tymkovich rejected the suit. The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals followed suit, leading to the request for the Supreme Court’s intervention, according to The Hill.
In their bid to have the case reviewed, O’Rouke and his other plaintiffs explained their purpose.
