Events From Around the Nation

Imagine the uproar if a Republican candidate admitted that he/she did NOT pick someone who they felt was qualified to be on their ticket solely because the person is gay. That is exactly what Kamala Harris admitted to in her book 107 Days as to why she didn’t pick Pete Buttigieg. Think of what would have happened if a Republican admitted …

“… would have been an ideal partner—if I were a straight white man.”

Four House Republicans Supported Ilhan Omar

The House of Representatives recently had the opportunity to censure the Somalia Representative Ilhan Omar over disgusting comments she made following Charlie Kirk’s assassination. (Officially, Omar is from Minnesota, but the Hamas-loving Omar represents her home country of Somalia). The vote went down to defeat because FOUR REPUBLICANS voted with Democrats! Do you think that if this was a vote against a Republican representative that any House Democrats would have abandoned their party? Of course not!

Let these four RINOs know your thoughts. In the House, you can only email if you are in their district. 

1. Rep. Mike Flood—Nebraska 202-225-4806 
2. Rep. Jeff Hurd—Colorado 202-225-4676 Rep. 
3. Tom McClintock—California 202-225-2511 
4. Rep. Cory Mills—Florida 202-225-4035

The USA Headline tells you all you need to know: “Republicans Come to Ilhan Omar’s Rescue.” One final note: Robin called all four representatives. The office member in Rep. Hurd’s office hung up on her while she was talking. Let these folks lose to a Democrat since they act like Democrats.

Alabama:   Senator Tommy Tuberville is running for governor. Two Republicans who have supported President Trump want to replace him in the U.S. Senate: Attorney General Steve Marshall and Congressman Barry Moore. The question is, will President Trump endorse one or will he do the same as he has done in Arizona’s gubernatorial race and endorse both candidates? Former Navy SEAL Jared Hudson is also running for the Republican nomination, but currently the race appears to be between Marshall and Moore.

North Carolina:  On August 22, 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska was stabbed to death on a train by a monster who had been arrested 14 times before. Now Republicans in the state passed a billed called “Iryna’s Law” that should ensure defendants undergo mental health evaluations. (Duh!) The bill might also restart executions in the state (Yeah!) Okay, let’s see if Democrat Governor Josh Stein signs the legislation. 

White House: A ballroom is being built with private funding. Originally announced to hold 650 people, it will be built with a capacity of 900 people. No more tents on the front lawn when special events are held at the White House.

Events from around the globe

England and Wales:  According to the UK Parliament, for the 10 years ended 2024, knife crimes increased 85 percent. Another statistic from the same source that should be a wake-up call for its elected officials (but isn’t) are the number of rape offences:

1.  2014-15 29,420 
2.  2024-25 71,667

Gee, we wonder what else has been increasing. Let’s look at the United Kingdom’s Muslim population:

1. 2001 2.7 percent 2011 
2. 4.8 percent 2021 6.4 percent

• London Police Orders Jewish Man to Leave Public Space Video
• Britain’s Most Shameful Hour Since Before World War II  - Rivaling in its immorality and stupidity Chamberlain’s betrayal of Czechoslovakia in 1938.  Now Keir Starmer has gone and done it: he’s broken with decades of his country’s foreign policy and, in synchronicity with two other appalling leaders, Mark Carney of Canada and Anthony Albanese of Australia, who have made the same announcement at the same time, has announced his country’s recognition of a “state of Palestine.”
• UK Legalizes Muslims Stabbing People If They’re Offended - You were clearly deeply offended.” On the heels of the UK recognizing an Islamic terrorist state in Israel, police arrested the third known person for criticising Hamas and released a Muslim man who had gone on a stabbing spree after he saw a Koran being burned. Or as the judge in the case put it, “the holy Koran.” Who is the Koran holy to? The political and judicial systems of the United Kingdom which have effectively enacted Islamic Sharia blasphemy law by selectively prosecuting those who offend Islam. But not those who offend the religious sensibilities of Christians or Jews. Do whatever you like with a cross or a bible, but touch a Koran and you’re not only under arrest.

Germany:  This is NOT Germany 1933 simply because one moron shop owner in Flensburg, Germany posted a sign on its front window stating, “JEWS are banned from here!!!!” However, we will see if one becomes two, two becomes four ... Germany’s Minister of Culture Dorit Stenke and Gerhard Ulrich, the antisemitism commissioner of the State of Schleswig-Holstein, issued a joint statement denigrating the sign. The statement shares that Ulrich filed a criminal complaint for "incitement of hatred" against the shop owner.

Fiji: Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka was in Jerusalem for a ceremony marking the nation’s opening of its new embassy. Fiji announced that the nation wants to deepen the cooperation between the two nations on issues of security that includes maritime patrols that combat the illegal drug trade. Fiji also wants to enhance its agriculture with climate-smart farming and irrigation.

Spain:  According to state pollster CIS, 25 percent of Spaniards under the age of 24 and 36 percent of young men will vote for the new Vox Party in the next election. Formed in 2013, Vox is already Spain’s third –largest force in parliament. It’s leader, Santiago Abascal, routinely issues rallying cries to fight “woke ideology” and the “Islamist invasion” in Spain.
