Venezuela’s attorney general’s office has requested that an arrest warrant be issued for opposition leader Edmundo Gonzalez over his refusal to respond to three summons to testify about an opposition website that published detailed information about the country’s disputed presidential election. The arrest warrant request for the 75-year-old Gonzalez from the Democratic Unity Roundtable, an electronic copy of which was viewed by The Epoch Times, comes as part of a probe into his claim that he was the rightful victor of the July presidential election, in which President Nicolas Maduro was declared by officials as the winner. The accusations leveled against Gonzalez in the arrest warrant request include usurping

#1 - I think it is the other way around. South America has been doing this for decades. I would tell Edmundo to flee his country, but good luck finding a safe haven in today's world.

Thought for the Day: Bonhoeffer on Stupidity
vs Evil
8 replies
Posted by Hazymac 9/4/2024 6:52:59 AM Post Reply
The great theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer offers a useful observation: "Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion in that it leave behind in human beings at least a sense of unease. Against stupidity we are defenseless. Neither protests nor use of force accomplish anything here; reasons fall of deaf ears; facts that contradict one’s prejudgment simply need not be believed… For that reason, greater caution is called for when dealing with a stupid person than a malicious one."

In a move that felt like an inevitability, longtime media maven Brian Stelter is making his return this month to the airwaves and to CNN. In an announcement made to subscribers of the “Reliable Sources” newsletter (something I missed initially, as the previous overlord of that release had cut off my subscription), Stelter trumpeted his return to the fold. This appeared to be something on the horizon, given Brian’s frequent guest appearances made over the past few months. There was some intrigue as to how this facet of CNN was going to be maintained. It was just weeks ago that Oliver Darcy made his departure known, as he was

Kamala Harris, the presidential candidate foisted on America by the Democrat political machine—a vice president who has never in her life won a delegate in a Democratic primary—has been releasing ludicrous ads lately claiming she’d be tough on the border. What an absolute joke. Tell that to the police who patrol the streets of Manhattan, some of whom claim that up to 75 percent of all the crimes committed in the Big Apple are by illegal aliens. Life in the big city: "Across New York, recently arrived migrants are flooding the criminal-justice system — at far higher rates than public officials have acknowledged.

Happy Monday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) Poll Perspective. On September 2, 2016, Hillary Clinton led Donald Trump by 4.1 points in the RealClearPolitics Poll Average. The mainstream media hacks who masquerade as journalists while behaving as the Joseph Goebbels Memorial Propaganda Machine for the Democratic National Committee have long been giving conservative Americans plenty of reasons to distrust and dislike them. As I wrote in a VIP column a couple of weeks ago, I don't like to use the word "hate," but the MSM public relations push for Kamala Harris is begging me to make it a regular part of my vocabulary.

President Biden claimed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not doing enough to secure a hostage deal with Hamas terrorists. Biden made the remarks to reporters before heading into the Situation Room, where he and Vice President Harris are convening with a hostage deal negotiating team following the murder of 23-year-old Israeli-American Hersh Goldberg-Polin and five other hostages by Hamas on Saturday. On the South Lawn of the White House, where Biden disembarked from Marine One upon returning from his vacation home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, one reporter asked, "Mr. President, do you think it’s time for Prime Minister Netanyahu

There is a lot of drama happening surrounding former President Donald Trump’s visit to Arlington Cemetery to honor the 13 servicemembers who were killed in a suicide bombing attack at Abbey Gate in Kabul, Afghanistan. The attack occurred on August 26, 2021, during our shambolic exit from the country, which will go down as one of the Biden administration’s most infamous foreign policy failures. Trump was there. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were not. The optics were atrocious, which led to the liberal media spewing fake news about the ceremony. They accused Trump of politicizing the event, then attacked the Gold Star parents who voiced their outrage

A couple of summers ago, I saw a huge, brightly marked wasp crawl out of a hole in the sandy soil above a curb. It was such a striking creature and its burrow so cleanly excavated that I had to know more. I finally identified the creature as a cicada killer wasp, and while it may have been an impressive and attractive insect at a glance, its habits were nightmarish. The female, you see, flies up to an unsuspecting cicada that is minding its own business, singing to the summer from a tree, and paralyzes it with a sting. It then transports the helpless creature to its burrow.

During the DNC, the Democrats bumped Biden’s speech, as the New York Post put it, “past his bedtime” but Biden managed to read the boilerplate composed by his woke-left-globalist handlers. He did the same on September 1, 2022, backdropped in blood red, with U.S. Marines at the ready, like something staged by Nazi cineaste Leni Riefenstahl,. The Delaware Democrat told the nation: "Too much of what’s happening in our country today is not normal.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is slurping up milkshakes and eating pork chops on a stick at the state fair this weekend. Not many outlets will cover this heinous exchange with the press at the event, where Walz refused to answer a question about how he felt about the six hostages whose bodies were found by Israeli forces in Gaza over the weekend. Walz listened to the question and then walked away. (X) The reporter asked, “What's your reaction to the six hostages being found dead in Gaza?" "Thanks, everybody!" replied Walz as he waved goodbye. One of the six was American Hersh Goldberg-Polin. The terror group likely executed these people.

The big debate is coming up and I think Kamala will pull out. I could be wrong, but a lot of people agree with me. And she should chicken out – she’s bound to make a fool of herself. Let’s just say that Kamala Harris is not great at public speaking. She did a 41-minute interview with Dana Bash that couldn’t have been more softball if CNN had put a Nerf on a tee in front of her and let her swing away until she hit it. They only released about 18 minutes of her babbling. Where is the rest? We can safely assume she looked like

Now that the euphoria on the part of the delegates to the Democrat Convention has subsided, the Democrats will now have to try to sell to the voting public, a tandem of dubious candidates to try make lemonade out of apples.

The Democrat elites went all out, at their convention, to try to bamboozle the electorate into thinking that the the Democrats are really not Democrats, but a clone of their opponents, the Republicans, by copying

The Justice Department is charging several top-ranking Hamas terrorists for their role in perpetrating the October 7, 2023, mass slaughter of Israeli civilians that jump-started the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, the mastermind behind October 7, and five other senior Hamas officials are facing federal terrorism charges for orchestrating the October 7 attacks, the Justice Department announced Tuesday. This will be the first official step towards holding Hamas criminally accountable almost a year after the massacre took place. Hamas terrorists killed more than 1,000 innocent civilians on October 7, including over 40 American citizens.

As the first female vice president, Harris has already broken down a major gender barrier, and her career in politics has been characterized by a commitment to progressive ideals and a focus on helping disenfranchised communities,” Alexa said in response to a question about Kamala Harris.

Jefferson Maldenado, a 31-year-old migrant from Ecuador, has been arrested in New York City five times since arriving in the US earlier this year. His latest bust was for stealing a pair of pants and a beer from the Target near Herald Square. Asked why he committed the crime, the migrant thief said, “I wanted to change my clothes and think. “I wanted to sit down and think about my life, about what to do. Because this is not a normal world.” Migrants Juan Bernal Rodriguez (L) and Jefferson Maldenado(R) at Manhattan criminal court admit the reason why they commit crimes.

In the video, he chillingly warns that the Venezuelan gangs are in for a rough ride if they continue to terrorize residents of the Windy City.
