North Carolina Democrat Will Not Seek Reelection
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 12/7/2023 11:04:56 PM
Democrat North Carolina Rep. Kathy Manning announced on Thursday that she will not seek reelection in 2024. According to a press release from Manning’s office, she will not seek reelection due to her state’s “egregiously gerrymandered congressional districts,” which she blames on the Republican-led General Assembly in North Carolina. This, she claimed, “[prevents] the re-election of three North Carolina Democrats, including Manning.” [Tweet] “The Republican-led General Assembly passed flagrantly gerrymandered Congressional districts to reduce the North Carolina Congressional delegation from seven Democrats and seven Republicans to four Democrats and ten Republicans,” she said in a statement.

Yes, America — it's that time of year, again. Making Christmas lists, decorating the house with holiday cheer, and watching the anticipation grow on the faces of the little ones as Santa's arrival draws near. Oh, and dusting off the COVID masks, and firing those bad boys up, again.
What's that you say? Bah, humbug!?
Au contraire, according to the never-wrong, always-right Centers for Disease Control. CDC Director Mandy Cohen released a video on Wednesday recommending masking this winter for those who are sick, or prone to getting sick, and who want to take extra precautions amid rising respiratory illnesses.

They say all press is good press, but I'm not sure Deadspin agrees with that after the shellacking it took for trying to destroy a nine-year-old Kansas City Chiefs fan.
The saga began in Las Vegas with the young boy attending a Chiefs road game against the Raiders. A side-profile picture emerged of him wearing a Native American headdress and black face paint. One of the columnists at Deadspin then had the brilliant idea of accusing the kid of wearing "blackface," publishing his photo to go viral for all the world to see.
It wasn't long before the real story came out, though:
One could reduce Joe Biden's "campaign" so far to one word: lethargic. I'm not sure what they are going to do to change the sense of the American people that he's too old and shouldn't be running. So far, they've just sent him out to protected campaign reception environments, and he hasn't been doing anything where he's going to get a big challenge or be truly taxed to explain himself. He's not doing anything that's going to move that needle.
We've seen his team is at a bit of a loss. They had been pushing "Bidenomics" as a "thing," thinking that they could pitch his "success" that way.
As is usually the case with the left, they fail to see beyond next week when it comes to the results of their policies. The disaster created by the Biden administration that is the U.S. southern border and the massive numbers of illegal immigrants flooding the country is no exception. When it comes to the border, the biggest beneficiaries of the chaos are the drug cartels. They are raking in billions of dollars from smuggling drugs, human beings, and anything else they can get across the border— humans, once they have been smuggled into the country and have been shipped literally to every corner,
An 11-year-old girl was assigned to share a bed with a male student who believes he is “transgender” on a “cross-country” school trip, according to a report from The Daily Signal. The girl’s parents were not notified of the arrangement and found out the night of the trip.
Reportedly, the girl’s parents, Joe and Serena Wailes, represented by Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF). sent a demand letter to the Jefferson County School Board in Colorado and Jefferson County Public Schools Superintendent Tracy Dorland regarding the situation.
In the demand letter to the school board and the superintendent, the parents inquire “whether JCPS will continue this practice
These two women are comedy acts. It’s unintentional, but they’re a clown show. Reps. Cori Bush (D-MO) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) are some of the most vocal anti-Israel voices on the Hill. They’re a stone’s throw away from being Hamas’ official representation in Washington, and they’re mostly getting roasted for it. Blessedly, they’re such a minority on the issue of Israel and their recent war in Gaza that none of their initiatives will ever see the light of day. They are tired of being called antisemites, which was irony as thick as cement. [Video, Tweets]
Both women lamented how the accurate phrase is being used to attack them
In the latest example of facts that woke Westerners refuse to acknowledge, a Hamas official stated on TV that its goal is to make Jerusalem the capital of an Islamic caliphate, as he called for war against Jews and Christians.
A Hamas official’s unsurprising but disturbing statement that Muslim terrorists want to conquer Israel because they want Jerusalem as the capital of a caliphate was uncovered by MEMRI TV. As JihadWatch noted, this statement is totally in line with years of stated jihadi goals, yet no amount of terrorist honesty can penetrate the woke understanding. After the recent heinous Hamas attack on Israelis,
We are currently in the midst of the holiday of Hanukkah, a holiday of celebrating light over darkness based on miracles that happened in the second century B.C.E. It is a holiday that reminds us of the power of God’s light and was certainly a holiday that Jesus observed, as did every Jew of his time living under Roman rule.
The word Hanukkah actually means “dedication," and it commemorates the dedication of the Temple in Jerusalem as well as the dedication of the Maccabees in their war against evil. We may celebrate the holiday by lighting the Hanukkah Menorah (Hanukkiah), but there is one question that arises out of the holiday
According to a report from the Times of Israel, dozens of Hamas terrorists surrendered themselves to Israeli troops in northern Gaza.
"It was estimated that more than a hundred Hamas fighters turned themselves in, the largest group to surrender to the IDF since Israel began its incursion into the Palestinian enclave," reports the New York Post. "Images of the surrender featured dozens of men sitting in rows with their hands over their heads. Many of the men were without their battle fatigues as the IDF troops lined up others to proceed farther down the closed-off road.
Dylan Mulvaney earned mockery online after the Tikok star failed to fill a room during a speaking event at Penn State on Tuesday evening.
Mulvaney appeared at Penn State at the invitation of the Student Programming Association (SPA). Mulvaney’s speaking fee is typically $40,000, though it’s unclear if Mulvaney and the SPA worked out a cheaper rate for the event. The event was funded with student fees, according to The Daily Mail.
A photo, taken and shared by the Young America’s Foundation, of the auditorium that held the event showed a sparse crowd with row upon row of empty seats.
Daily Wire host Michael Knowles shared the photo,
Michigan high school shooter Ethan Crumbley has been sentenced to life in prison without parole after murdering four students in 2021.
The 17-year-old ran riot through Oxford High School in the state in November 2021, killing four and injuring seven.
Judge Kwame Rowe said Crumbley methodically walked through the school, picking and choosing who was going to die.
Students Madisyn Baldwin, 17, Hana St. Juliana, 14, Tate Myre, 16, and Justin Shilling, 17, were killed in the rampage. Six students and a teacher were also wounded.
He was convicted of 24 felonies in connection with the school shooting, including murder and terrorism.
A teenage boy who identifies as transgender reportedly took first place this past weekend in the under-14 category at the 2023 Southern Region Oireachtas Irish dancing competition in Dallas, Texas, ultimately displacing a girl for a spot in the Irish Dancing World Championships.
As rules are changed to adhere to radical Left-wing gender theory, biological male athletes who identify as female have been able to infiltrate girls and women’s spaces and sports.
“My daughter was in absolute tears,” one mother of a girl who competed against the male told Daily Signal reporter Mary Margaret Olohan. “She was like, ‘This is so unfair.’ I totally agree.”

Former President Donald Trump is urging supporters to “guard the vote” during next year’s election, a phrase that has set off alarm bells among pro-democracy advocates who say it signals permission to take extreme measures that could intimidate voters and threaten election workers.
The phrase is a relatively novel one for Trump, though activists in the far-right movement have been setting the groundwork for it to be deployed more widely.
Former national security adviser Michael Flynn has spent months repeating the phrase in posts, speeches and interviews.

Democrat Rep. Ayanna Pressley, has introduced legislation to allow incarcerated U.S. citizens to vote in federal elections.
The Massachusetts lawmaker also reaffirmed her support for lowering the voting age to 16. (snip) The bill is cosponsored by Sen. Peter Welch, a Vermont Democrat.
Pressley argued that individuals in prison or those with a criminal record are “wrongfully stripped of their sacred right to vote and denied the opportunity to participate in our democracy.”
A woman attempted to burn down Martin Luther King Jr.’s birth home, arriving with a gas canister and dousing the historic property in fuel Thursday.
Video from the brazen attempt shows a woman dressed in all black freely pouring gasoline on the home’s front porch, windows, and bushes around 5:45 p.m., WSB-TV reported.
Two tourists from Utah viewing the home were able to intervene to stop the suspect, police said.
One witness recalled the suspect began to grow irritated after she was having trouble spreading the fuel around the property, according to FOX 5 Atlanta.
Hunter Goes Under the Bus

Something has changed inside the Department of Justice, though it’s unclear exactly what might be going on under the covers. After years of stalling and obfuscation, doing everything possible to keep First Son Hunter Biden out of any legal trouble, the DOJ filed nine new charges against Hunter last night. None of them are trivial and three are quite serious. He was hit with three felony tax evasion charges and six related misdemeanors. The unpaid taxes add up to $1.4 million and they carry the potential of up to 17 years in prison. This is going to put Joe Biden in a very awkward position in short order and
A teenage boy who identifies as a girl is heading to the Irish Dancing World Championships after placing first in the U14 2023 Southern Region Oireachtas competitions. Parents of girls competing in Irish dance are frustrated and outraged, saying that they cannot understand why a boy with physical advantages is allowed to dance against their daughters.
“Oh, my gosh. It’s going to make me cry,” said one mother, whose daughter danced in the same competition as the trans-identifying boy in the Dallas, Texas, event. “I never thought I was going to have to deal with this. And my heart breaks for my daughter and the other girls
A 20-year-old Detroit mother allegedly punched and knocked out a female Kroger worker as her one-year-old child watched from a shopping cart.
Shelby Parham, from Detroit, Michigan, has been accused of attacking a 49-year-old Kroger worker who lost consciousness and suffered a head injury after the assault.
The wild beating was captured on nearby security cameras at a Kroger in St. Clair Shores on Tuesday.
Hunter Biden spent a staggering $870,000 on prostitutes, sex club memberships and porn and took out $1.6million from cash machines in the wild spending spree laid out in the bombshell tax evasion indictment filed on Wednesday night.
Federal prosecutors claim the president's scandal-hit son spent almost $5million on a lavish lifestyle between 2016 and 2019 while failing to pay $1.4million taxes in a case that leaves him facing a maximum 17 years in prison.
The indictment set to be a disaster for his father's 2024 run for president alleges that he 'spent this money on drugs, escorts and girlfriends, luxury hotels and rental properties, exotic cars, clothing, and other items
The US embassy in Baghdad has been bombarded with 60mm mortar rounds in an attack believed to have been carried out by Iran-aligned militias.
Missiles were fired at the diplomatic hub in Iraq in the early hours of Friday morning and they set off the emergency sirens.
Staff and residents in the local area were told to 'take cover and await further instruction' as the sound of explosions rung out.

A group of Arabs from the Middle East and North Africa were deeply disturbed after viewing 47-minutes of Hamas’s October 7 atrocities during a screening at the Israeli consulate in Boston, Massachusetts.
“I was shocked — I couldn’t breathe,” Fatema Al Harbi from Bahrain told The Daily Wire. “I cried most of it.” The group is part of a delegation meeting with American leaders and advocating for peace under the organization Sharaka, which was founded after the Abraham Accords.

The White House is frantically trying to distance itself from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) after its executive director Nihad Awad claimed he was “happy” to watch the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack unfold. Speaking at the 16th Annual Convention for Palestine in the U.S. on Nov. 24, he said that the people of Gaza were merely “breaking the siege”:
The people of Gaza only decided to break the siege, the walls of the concentration camp, on October 7th, and yes. I was happy to see people breaking the siege and throwing down the shackles of their own land and walk free into their lands that they were not allowed
Yesterday, I wrote about the likelihood that Penn’s president, Liz Magill, will be replaced sometime soon, as support for her has essentially collapsed in the wake of her testimony before Congress in which she refused to denounce calls for the genocide of Jews by students clearly.
Well, it is becoming clear that Claudine Gay, Harvard’s president, will follow her out the door shortly after.
I have no inside knowledge, of course. It turns out that the Ivies don’t share their plans with me for some reason. But the political and financial pressure on the institutions is building so fast that it is hard to imagine that the boards of these corporations
