Life is all about choices. Sad to see children so poorly brought up that they'll try any old street drug. Stupidity is a universal capital crime, and the sentence will be carried out without mercy. Don't be stupid.

My inconvenient question: how stupid does someone have to be to take fentanyl, especially in light of the widespread reports out there? Individual responsibility, what a concept.

At this point if parents haven’t drilled into their kids heads that any drug taken without a prescription from your doctor or any drug that has come from the streets is like playing Russian Roulette with one empty chamber. There is no safe drug out there. This is instead Government sanctioned murder. This administration knows the statistics and risks and yet they are doing nothing to stop the flow into the US. Biden’s cabal is instead aiding and abetting drug trafficking. Is one high worth it? Remember, death is permanent and is no respecter of persons.

Keep helping China's economy by buying fentanyl and keep allowing the illegal mules to keep bringing it over our open borders. I would bet the parents of these kids are Democrats-----------------prove me wrong.

#5, most of Loudoun County is made up of demonicrats/leftists. We got out of there six years ago but our daughter and her family are still there. Her kids will never set foot in any public school.

Former President Obama has condemned the actions of Hamas against the state of Israel but has also expressed sympathy for innocent civilians in Gaza. Speaking on the Pod Save America podcast about the conflict in the Middle East, the former president suggested the war was a 'moral reckoning for all of us'. 'If you want to solve the problem, then, you have to take in the whole truth', the president said.'And you then have to admit nobody's hands are clean, that all of us are complicit to some degree,' the former president continued.

A rocket fired by Islamic terrorists from inside Gaza landed very close to Fox News correspondent Trey Yingst this week in southern Israel. “It appears there has been a direct impact,” Yingst said on Friday. “This was not intercepted, it was a massive explosion.” He estimated that he was within 100 feet of where the rocket exploded near a kindergarten building. “We’re right along the Israel-Gaza border,” he said. “This area has not been taking much fire recently, but we saw something coming off the Gaza Strip, sirens sounded. You have about 10 seconds to get to cover here.”

A gubernatorial victory for Kentucky Republican candidate Daniel Cameron would “help propel Donald Trump into the White House,” very much setting the tone for the 2024 presidential election, Cameron said during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday, days ahead of the big election taking place on Tuesday. Cameron has seen a massive surge in the polls days ahead of the election between himself and Democrat incumbent Andy Beshear, as the latest Emerson College poll, published Friday, showed Cameron — who has been endorsed by Trump — and Beshear tied evenly with 47 percent support each.

We've seen a lot of anti-Israel protesters. We saw some who stormed a New York City store because it had flyers of the kidnapped Israelis out front, and police had to protect the building and the people. But the folks who stormed into the Port of Oakland managed to do something that everyone should find more than a little troubling. Somehow they were able to get through a fence and onto the grounds of the port area. At least three of them got onto the ladder for the U.S. Ready Reserve Force roll-on/roll-off vessel MV Cape Orlando, thinking it was leaving to pick up weapons to take to Israel.

Former New Jersey Gov.

Paris— Thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators demanding a halt to Israel’s bombardment of Gaza marched in Paris, Berlin and other European cities on Saturday. The marches reflected growing disquiet in Europe about the mounting civilian casualty toll and suffering from the Israel-Hamas war, particularly in countries with large Muslim populations, including France. The Palestinian death toll in the Israel-Hamas war has reached 9,448, according to the Hamas-run Health Ministry in Gaza. In Israel, more than 1,400 people have been killed, most of them in the Oct. 7 Hamas attack that started the war.

A young black male voter left CNN anchors stunned after he revealed his unvarnished thoughts on Joe Biden and his almost certain re-match with Donald Trump in 2024. One even claimed his “jaw dropped.” As the Blaze reported, earlier this week John King went to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to get the black community’s views on Biden and the 2024 election. One voter, Davette King, told CNN that while he “loves Biden,” he is dissatisfied with his job performance thus far. King ended up giving the failing “president” a four on a scale of one to 10.

So What Are the Options?

The Washington Post has a story today about the network of tunnels dug beneath Gaza by Hamas fighters. The entire network is estimated to stretch over 300 miles despite the Gaza strip being on 25 miles long. It’s where Hamas fighters have been hiding out since the start of Israel’s military response to the 10/7 attack. But the IDF has no intention of entering the tunnels which are likely booby-trapped. Israeli military protocol generally prohibits regular ground troops from entering tunnels, as the chances of being killed or captured is too high. Israelis have seen their soldiers grabbed and dragged into tunnels, so the likely strategy will be to attempt

The leader of the Iranian-backed Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah threatened Friday to exact revenge on the U.S. for supporting Israel in its campaign to root out Hamas. Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah said in a televised speech: “Let me be clear, the United States is just as responsible…Americans have to pay, they have to pay for Israel’s slaughter.” A few days after Hamas invaded Israel, perpetrating the most brutal massacre against Jews since the Holocaust, Hezbollah terrorists clashed with Israel Defense Forces along the Lebanon border, opening a second front in the conflict. If Israel’s military attacks Lebanon, where Hezbollah is operating, it will “pay dearly,” Nasrallah vowed.

The 'adopted' black son of new House Speaker Mike Johnson has spoken out for the first time in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com. Michael Tirrell James said he would ‘probably be in prison’ were it not for Johnson – after he appeared in a Los Angeles court Wednesday on charges of running an illegal cannabis business and possessing brass knuckles. James has never taken part in publicity for Johnson's political campaigns, and little has been known about the 40-year-old father of four. But now DailyMail.com can reveal how the top GOP lawmaker and his wife Kelly informally adopted James after meeting him while doing charitable community work in Louisiana in the 1990s.

The “supreme leader” of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, declared in an address on Wednesday that the common chant of “Death to America” in his country is “not just a slogan – it is a policy,” one his regime intended to bring to fruition. Khamenei was reportedly delivering remarks on Iranian regime-controlled television regarding the ongoing conflict between the nation of Israel and the Hamas genocidal terrorist organization, which Iran funds to the tune of tens of millions of dollars a year. The Iranian regime has enthusiastically embraced Hamas following its harrowing October 7 terrorist attack against civilians in Israel, which featured door-to-door slaughters of entire families in their homes,

A Connecticut judge was forced to throw out the results of a Democrat mayoral primary after surveillance videos showed possible ballot stuffing that a local judge said rendered the court "unable to determine the legitimate result." This week, Superior Court Judge William Clark ordered a new Democratic primary due to the misconduct. He claimed that the number of tampered ballots found changed the results of the original election, according to NBC Connecticut. “The volume of ballots so mishandled is such that it calls the result of the primary election into serious doubt and leaves the court unable to determine the legitimate result of the primary,” Clark wrote

Joe Biden is refusing to hand over loan documents to the House Oversight Committee proving any ‘loans’ he provided to his brother James Biden. The House Oversight Committee has no IRS records or loan documents confirming the $200,000 check Jim Biden wrote to his brother Joe Biden in 2018 was a ‘loan repayment.’ House Oversight Chairman James Comer demanded IRS records and applicable loan documents proving Joe Biden loaned his brother James money. The Bidens often structure their income as ‘loans’ to avoid paying taxes. We saw this with a $5 million wire described as an ‘interest-free loan’ (a way for Hunter to avoid paying taxes) from a Chinese firm.

There is something surreal, even sick about the current Gazan war.

More recently, they are also yelling, "Israel, you can't hide, we caught you in genocide." Consider the hypocrisy of that dual messaging. Hamas and its supporters are openly and eagerly calling for the genocidal end of Israel by wiping it out from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. Yet at the same time they also claim it is Israel that is committing genocide

The idiom for pregnancy, “a bun in the oven,” which traces its origins back more than 2,000 years to Ancient Greece, is in fact “misogynistic,” according to Kathleen Crowther, an historian of reproductive medicine at the University of Oklahoma. Crowther insists the idiom reduces the role of the mother to a mere incubator after the majority of the work has been done by the man. “I don’t think most people who use that metaphor are being misogynistic.” “But I think it actually does come from a deeply misogynistic tradition of thinking about women’s bodies as passive,” she argues.
