Trump: ‘Maybe’ Biden Should Preemptively
Pardon Cheney, Kinzinger, Pelosi
Posted By: Dreadnought, 12/9/2024 11:07:12 AM
President-elect Donald Trump suggested Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that President Joe Biden should pardon Democrats and members on the partisan January 6 Committee, such as Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Bennie Thompson (D-MS), and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). Democrats and media allies urged Biden in previous weeks to pardon a number of his allies including those who sat on the partisan January 6 committee. Members of the committee stand accused of deleting over 100 files before Republicans took control of the House in 2022, an act Trump says is illegal.

A bankruptcy judge on Tuesday rejected a bid by The Onion’s parent company to buy Alex Jones’ far-right media empire, including the website Infowars, ruling that the auction process was unfair.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez said after a two-day hearing that The Onion’s parent company, Global Tetrahedron, had not submitted the best bid and was wrongly named the winner of an auction last month by a court-appointed trustee. “I don’t think it’s enough money,” Lopez said in a late-night ruling from the bench in a Houston court. “I’m going to not approve the sale.”
It was not immediately clear whether there would be a new auction
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) has been one of the leading voices calling for protections for women and their private spaces. She recently introduced legislation to ban biological males from using women's bathrooms and locker rooms on Capitol Hill and on federal land nationwide.
She's calling the new bill, which she plans to introduce tonight, the "Protecting Women's Private Spaces Act." The goal? "To prohibit individuals from accessing or using single-sex facilities on federal property other than those corresponding to their biological sex, and for other purposes."
As a result of her efforts, she was on the receiving end of countless threats made against her and her staff. One trans activist
On Monday, a jury found Marine Corps veteran Daniel Penny not guilty of negligent homicide in the Jordan Neely case.
Penny, as RedState readers will recall, put Neely, a mentally ill homeless man with a lengthy criminal history, in a submission hold during a May 2023 subway incident in New York City after Neely reportedly acted aggressively and threateningly towards other passengers.
Neely, who was also restrained by other passengers, was later pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.
It's an understatement to say that Penny's life has been turned upside down since that day, especially after being charged by woke District Attorney Alvin Bragg

IDF demolishes Syrian navy in Latakia
3 replies
The Israeli Navy carried out a significant operation on Monday night, targeting and destroying much of the Syrian regime’s naval fleet. Missile ships struck numerous vessels armed with anti-ship missiles at the Al-Baida and Latakia ports, aiming to prevent these weapons from falling into the hands of hostile entities such as the salafist rebels who have taken over Syria. At the same time, reports from Reuters and Hezbollah-affiliated Lebanese network Al-Mayadeen indicated that IDF units crossed the buffer zone and advanced deep into Syrian territory, a claim the IDF denied. According to regional and Syrian security sources, Israeli forces are now positioned approximately 15.5 miles from Damascus
The Israeli Air Force carried out over 300 strikes in Syria in the early hours of Tuesday morning, according to Israeli security sources.
Some 70%-80% of the capabilities of former Syrian president Bashar al-Assad's military have been destroyed.
Most of the strikes were in southern Syria and around the city of Damascus, targeting Syrian army bases, with an emphasis on air defense systems and stores of surface-to-surface and surface-to-air missiles. Israeli security sources indicate that these actions have significantly expanded the air force's operational freedom.
Additionally, there have been attempts by Hezbollah to seize Syrian weaponry.
On Monday evening, two Syrian security sources told Reuters that IAF jets
FBI Director Christopher Wray plans to resign on or before Inauguration Day, according to recent reports. The move, widely seen as preemptive, reflects growing pressure from Republican lawmakers, led by Senator Charles Grassley, and signals yet another shift in leadership for an agency that has been at the center of political and institutional controversies over the past several years.
While Wray’s resignation isn’t entirely unexpected, it raises important questions about the future of the FBI, the challenges it faces, and the public’s trust in one of the nation’s most powerful institutions. This moment offers an opportunity to reflect on Wray’s tenure,
Making fun of Pravda media "fact checks" is, perhaps, a little too easy at times.
But doing so is a good reminder of just how distorted their worldview is. Without being reminded, we might fall into the bad habit of taking these people more seriously than they deserve. The Politifact "fact check" on conservative complaints (I'm pretty sure that the complaints are more "common sense" than conservative) that aid to Africa has nothing to do with aid to North Carolina is a perfect example of how the government hypnotized think.
President-elect Donald Trump keeps rolling out solid picks for his incoming administration, indicating he's much more attuned to the need for installing quality candidates in order to help him achieve his stated goals – and the sweet revenge of success — this time around.
On Monday evening, Trump announced another stellar pick in attorney Harmeet Dhillon, CEO of the Center for American Liberty and managing partner of the Dhillon Law Group, who he's tapped to serve as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Justice.
Trump shared the announcement on Truth Social: I am pleased to nominate Harmeet K. Dhillon as Assistant Attorney General
Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff has a reputation as a progressive, San Francisco billionaire one that he has earned by being pretty reliably left-wing on social issues. So some people are surprised by how positive he has been about the incoming Trump administration. For instance: There are other signs that, like the rest of the country, Benioff is moving right:
Amid dozens of posts about Salesforce’s new Agentforce platform, Benioff has positioned himself and his interests within the MAGA orbit, praising President-elect Donald Trump’s associates like Musk and Marc Andreessen, and touting Lex Fridman’s interview with Argentinian president Javier Milei

CEO Brian Thompson's killing, charged
with murder in NYC 10 replies
NEW YORK -- Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a New York City hotel, is now charged with murder, according to court documents.
The New York City Police Department and Mayor Eric Adams announced on Monday the 26-year-old was taken into custody earlier in the day on forgery and illegal gun charges in Pennsylvania. At the time, he was still considered a person of interest in the case. "He matches the description of the identification we've been looking for, he's also in possession of several items that we believe will connect him to this incident,"
The suspect in UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s slaying was reported missing by his family last month after losing touch with them following a recent back surgery, according to sources and reports.
Luigi Mangione, 26, was captured in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on Monday after he was spotted eating at a McDonald’s by an employee of the fast food restaurant who believed he resembled the gunman wanted over last week’s brazen shooting outside a Manhattan hotel.
Mangione — an Ivy League graduate from a prominent Maryland real estate family — was found carrying a ghost gun, masks and rambling writings linking him to the ambush, authorities said.

Catholics and Biblical scholars alike have been calling foul on recent attempts by supporters of Hamas to portray Jesus Christ as a "Palestinian." The historically incorrect narrative has been pushed by Muslims and other anti-Israel voices, who have sought to claim Jesus as their own in order to bolster support for the "from the river to the sea" destruction of the state of Israel. Sadly, it seems that the pro-Hamas cabal has found a kindred spirit in the leader of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has proposed a one-time $300 payment to individuals earning $150,000 or less, and $500 to couples making $300,000 or less, her office announced Monday.
In what would be the state’s first “Inflation Refund,” Hochul wants to send about 8.6 million New Yorkers a few hundred dollars starting in fall 2025 if approved by the legislature, an official press release stated.
Around $3 billion in taxpayer funds would be allocated for the payments, which the governor called a “break” for her constituents.
.“Because of inflation, New York has generated unprecedented revenues through the sales tax — now, we’re returning that cash back to middle class families,

Members of the special committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol are hitting back at President-elect Trump after he called for their imprisonment, saying the criminal conduct surrounding the rampage was committed by Trump and his supporters, not those who probed the tragedy afterwards.
The lawmakers on the now-defunct panel, which featured members of both parties, maintain that Trump’s threat to prosecute them puts him in league with tyrants who break laws with impunity and punish anyone who seeks to hold them to account.

Ousted Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) argued in a letter addressed just to “White People” on Tuesday that “white supremacy” is the reason Daniel Penny was acquitted in the subway chokehold death of Jordan Neely.
In the bizarre rant, posted on X, the departing “Squad” lawmaker further suggested that he doesn’t understand why he feels the need to “keep talking” to white people.
“Dear White People,” Bowman’s manifesto begins.
“I don’t know why I feel the need to keep talking to you. I don’t know why part of me still has hope for you and for us. Some of you are too far gone."
The family of Luigi Mangione, the Ivy League graduate charged with the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, said they were “devastated” by his arrest — as it was revealed the 26-year-old alleged gunman spiraled after undergoing “traumatic” back surgery.
“Our family is shocked and devastated by Luigi’s arrest,” the family said in a statement shared by his cousin Nino Mangione, a Republican Baltimore County delegate, late Monday.
“We offer our prayers to the family of Brian Thompson and we ask people to pray for all involved. We are devastated by this news,” the Mangione family said.
Ask voters for their one-word description of what they will remember of Joe Biden's presidency and the results are damning: Old, inflation, falling.
Yet Biden will take the stage in Washington on Tuesday to try to cement his legacy as the leader who rebuilt the economy after the pandemic
The White House is billing the event as 'remarks on his middle-out, bottom-up economic playbook at the Brookings Institution.' But our latest survey of voter attitudes with J.L. Partners show the 82-year-old will mostly be remembered for crippling inflation and his own personal frailties, even by his supporters.
Luigi Mangione suffered a violent meltdown as he arrived at court after being arrested for the murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Mangione, 26, could be heard telling about cops being 'completely out of touch' and 'insulting the intelligence of the American people' as he was bundled into court by a horde of sheriff's deputies.
Mangione, 26, comes from a prominent Maryland family on his father Louis side. His grandfather Nick Mangione, who died in 2008, was a successful real estate developer. One of his best-known projects was Turf Valley Resort, a sprawling luxury retreat and conference center outside Baltimore that he purchased in 1978.

Good riddance!
FBI Director Christopher Wray is preparing to resign as President Trump moves forward with nominee Kash Patel.
Republican Senator Chuck Grassley (IA) sent Christopher Wray a blistering letter on Monday and told him and his deputy Paul Abbate to step down for the good of the country.
“For the good of the country, it’s time for you and your deputy to move on to the next chapter in your lives,” Mr. Grassley wrote in the letter to Wray, according to The Washington Times. “I therefore must express my vote of no confidence in your continued leadership of the FBI.”
