Posted By: Imright, 12/22/2024 10:23:30 AM
The Democratic-led Senate on Friday confirmed President Joe Biden’s 235th judicial nominee, surpassing the number of judges Republicans confirmed during the first Trump administration. “The majority has now confirmed more judges under President Biden than any majority has confirmed in decades. This is historic,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said after the upper chamber confirmed Serena Raquel Murillo to serve as district judge for the Central District of California. “We have confirmed more judges than under the Trump administration, more judges than any administration in this century, more judges than

More footage of the Biden Regime’s sabotage of Trump’s border policy was released last week, showing how the government is still hauling away border wall materials in Arizona to be auctioned off at extremely low prices.
This comes after investigative reporter James Lalino discovered earlier this month that the Biden Regime is using its final weeks in power to auction off massive amounts of unused border wall materials that have been left sitting in the Arizona desert since Biden took office.
Every day, an amount of materials that could build up to half a mile of wall are being transported north to be sold, border patrol agents said.
This is the remarkable moment Tiger Woods' son Charlie hit his first ever hole-in-one on national TV at the PNC Championship on Sunday.
Charlie, 15, was playing alongside his superstar dad in Orlando when the incredible moment occurred on the par-3 fourth hole, leading to wild celebrations.
The pair were already sitting pretty among the leaders of the tournament when the teenager stepped up to take his tee shot. Incredibly, it landed a few feet in front of the hole and then bounced straight down the cup - much to the surprise of Charlie himself.
Back on the tee, he looked around in shock, asking whether the ball had gone in.
As The Gateway Pundit readers know, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has been one of the foremost advocates for election integrity across America and a nightmare for the Uniparty.
He is still standing strong even after surviving an impeachment effort by the Texas State Legislature and constant attacks from the left.
By contrast, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) remains a consistently squishy RINO committed to folding to Democrats on a regular basis.
The two publicly sparred after Paxton called out Cornyn’s America-last posture by being one of 22 Republicans to vote for a massive $95.3 billion aid package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan with no border funding in early 2024.
The U.S. will exit the globalist World Health Organization (W.H.O.) on day one of President-elect Donald Trump’s new administration taking power, a report Sunday predicts.
The U.S. is the W.H.O.’s largest single donor. It provides the home to over 8,000 career bureaucrats with about 16 percent of its budget, which in 2024 stood at U.S.$6.83 billion. It has previously been criticised by conservative voices for its extraordinary drain on U.S. taxpayer funds while Trump has called it a slave to China’s own global ambitions. (X)

The family of Wisconsin school shooting victim Rubi Patricia Vergara has said they forgive killer Natalie 'Samantha' Rupnow as they give a message to the family.
Vergara, 14, was one of the victims to die after 15-year-old Rupnow opened fire in a study hall at Abundant Life Christian School on Monday before turning the gun on herself.
In a shocking moment during the 14-year-old teenager's funeral service on Saturday, Vergara's family forgave Rupnow and shared a sympathetic view of her actions.

Well over a year out from her next election, Gov. Kathy Hochul is looking desperate — and hapless.
The latest sign: She’s sent in another 250 National Guard to “help keep the subway safe” for Christmas shopping season and maybe beyond.
Yet the guardsmen legally can’t do most law enforcement, just check bags.
They’re not getting that raving madman off the platform, sorry.
But the 1,000 total Guard help provide a “sense of security,” the gov insists. Merry Christmas!
At least that’s not as insulting as her claim that she’s saving us money by imposing congestion-pricing tolls of “only” $9 instead of the $15 originally planned.

The man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson is reportedly being showered with attention from admirers.
During his time at Huntingdon State Correctional Institute in Pennsylvania, 26-year-old Luigi Mangione apparently got over 140 messages from people that included his so-called “groupies,” the New York Post reported on Saturday.
The Post said that according to corrections officials, the messages included emails, physical letters, and 163 deposits into an account so he could buy commissary items: (X) Mangione is accused of fatally shooting Thompson on December 4 outside the Hilton Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, per Breitbart News.
The Post described some of the reported messages sent to the alleged killer:

using new detection tool, but FAA lacks resources 18 replies
As drone sightings over New Jersey continue to raise questions, a new tool could bring answers about the source of these flying vehicles — if the government could get it off the ground.
Earlier this year, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) began requiring all unmanned aircraft systems to be equipped with Remote ID technology, which makes every equipped drone uniquely identifiable to authorities, like a license plate on a car.
The FAA announced that it would provide a database that could be accessed by local law enforcement, but nearly one year later, local authorities still can't get into it themselves.
President-elect Donald Trump took an unprecedented step by filing an amicus brief in a legal battle involving outgoing President Joe Biden’s defiant decision to sell off border wall materials initially designated to secure the U.S.-Mexico border wall. Trump, who made the construction of the border wall a cornerstone of his first presidency, sharply criticized the Biden Administration's "fire sale" of such materials, suggesting the action is "possibly criminal." Late Thursday, Trump took legal matters to a Texas court to urge a federal judge to immediately halt the ongoing sale of border-barrier materials until a thorough investigation of the Biden Administration’s conduct regarding the border wall is complete.
Cenk Uygur, the main host of the far left political talk show the ‘Young Turks’ attended an event hosted by the conservative group Turning Point USA in Arizona this week and was welcomed warmly by the crowd.
In his opening remarks, Uygur praised the attendees, saying that people on the right are more welcoming than Democrats. He then suggested that this is one of the reasons why Trump and MAGA won the popular vote in November.
He also said that people need to try to work together more, especially when they find they’re in agreement on a particular issue.
Mediaite provides a partial transcript of Uygur’s remarks:

Navy pilots flying over the red sea were shot down in an apparent 'friendly fire' incident, the US military said.
The US military was conducting airstrikes targeting Yemen's Houthi rebels and mistakenly hit two US Navy pilots.
Both were recovered alive, with one suffering minor injuries. 'The guided missile cruiser USS Gettysburg, which is part of the USS Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group mistakenly fired on and hit the F/A-18, which was flying off the USS Harry S. Truman,' Central Command said in a statement.
Central Command did not elaborate on their mission.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton claimed that Republicans were “taking orders from the world’s richest man,” Elon Musk, regarding a failed continuing resolution (CR).
In a post on X, Clinton accused Republicans of being “on course to shut down the government over the holidays.” “If you’re just catching up: the Republican Party, taking orders from the world’s richest man, is on course to shut down the government over the holidays, stopping paychecks for our troops and nutrition benefits for low-income families just in time for Christmas,” Clinton wrote in her post.
CBS News’ Lesley Stahl is having a bit of heartburn after the 2024 election. Donald Trump is coming back. The GOP retained control of Congress. The media establishment was once again skinned alive by the tens of millions of Americans who rightly rejected, ignored, or outright dismissed their shoddy narratives against Trump and the ones manufactured to prop up Vice President Kamala Harris. So, it’s somewhat laughable that she fears legacy media is dead.
Stahl and The Wall Street Journal’s Peggy Noonan spoke about the latter’s latest book at the 92NY Center’s Recanati-Kaplan Talks in late November. Stahl relayed a
The current state of the United States Congress is nowhere near what the Founding Fathers had in mind. [snip] The newspaper discovered that Rep. Granger was now the resident of a local memory care and assisted living home and had been for some time after she was found confused and wandering around her neighborhood. Assistant Executive Director for the memory care/assisted living home, Taylor Manzeil, confirmed that Granger was a resident, saying, "This is her home."
A so-called TikTok ‘prankster’ known for wreaking havoc on the public for social media views, was arrested for spraying poison all over food in a Mesa, Arizona, Walmart.
The suspect, 27-year-old Charles Smith, was stupid enough to video his face while committing the crime. He then uploaded the video of himself committing the felony to social media.
According to court documents, Smith went back inside Walmart 10 minutes after he committed the crime and “attempted to collect the items he sprayed.”
Smith wheeled some of the poisoned items to the back of Walmart.
Newscaster Lesley Stahl claims she “doesn’t know what to do” about the embarrassing demise of the legacy media.
She was lamenting to her colleague, Peggy Noonan, that “we are at the point where even the president,” then corrected herself saying, “Elon Musk,” asserted that legacy media is dead. She appeared extremely worried, spilling her deepest concerns, in front of an empathetic audience gathered at the 92nd St. YMCA studio in New York.
It was as if Stahl was having an out-of-body experience, where she failed to factor in herself, in accounting for the reason why audiences were abandoning network news in droves.
Republicans scored a significant victory after successfully passing a spending bill on Friday to avert a looming government shutdown with just 12 hours to spare. The new 118-page bill, which overcame partisan tensions, reflects a strategic win for GOP lawmakers after 38 Republicans voted against the Trump-backed bill on Thursday. After negotiating, lawmakers agreed to trim the funding bill to just under 600 pages after the initial draft was more than 1,300 pages and included unnecessary spending, such as a pay increase for Congress members.
A Maryland woman dubbed the "Black Widow" for murdering two husbands and a boyfriend for insurance money is now free after President Joe Biden commuted her 40-year prison sentence, undercutting the White House's claim that Biden released only "non-violent" offenders in a clemency bonanza last week.
Among the 1,500 federal convicts granted clemency was Josephine Virginia Gray, who was sentenced to 40 years in prison in 2002 for insurance fraud schemes connected to the murders of three men between 1974 and 1996. Gray was resentenced to the same amount of time again in 2006 following a series of appeals.

In a Senate chamber that has seen more backroom deals and spineless compromises than bold conservative action, Mitch McConnell, the epitome of a RINO, took to the podium to deliver his final speech as Senate Republican Leader.
The Kentucky senator’s comments, filled with self-praise and subtle digs at his conservative critics, summed up a career marked by giving in to opposition.
McConnell, who has held the reins of Senate GOP leadership since 2007, boasted about his so-called “accomplishments,” which often came at the expense of the conservative values he was elected to uphold.
What McConnell sees as “making a difference,” many conservatives recognize as selling out.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced tough questions from reporters on Friday regarding outgoing President Joe Biden’s noticeable absence during his final days in office, despite numerous pressing issues unfolding in Washington. This comes amid speculation that Biden is “quiet quitting” and failing to lead his party to the finish line.
The press briefing opened with a question on the minds of many Americans wondering where Biden has been amid the ongoing spending bill battle that needs to be passed in order to avoid a government shutdown.
If anyone in the future cares enough to write an authentic history of the 2024 presidential campaign, they might begin by noting that American politics exists downstream of American culture, which is a deep and broad river. Like any river, American culture follows a particular path, which has been reconfigured at key moments by new technologies. In turn, these technologies, which redefine both space and time—canals and lakes, the postal system, the telegraph, railroads, radio and later television, the internet, and most recently the networking of billions of people in real time on social media platforms—set the rules by which stories are communicated, audiences are configured, and individuals define themselves.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump spoke about the Panama Canal and how it was viewed as a “vital national asset” to the U.S., and how the U.S. was the “number one user” of the Panama Canal. Trump added when former President Jimmy Carter “foolishly” gave the Panama Canal away, it wasn’t for “Panama to charge” the U.S., “its Navy, and corporations” doing business in the U.S. high prices. “The Panama Canal is considered a VITAL National Asset for the United States, due to its critical role to America’s Economy and National,” Trump wrote.
