December 20, 2024 Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) – As undeniable evidence mounts that fluoride harms children’s brains, a historic ruling by a federal judge—and a report the government tried desperately to bury—may finally end the practice of adding this toxin to America’s drinking water.
For over two decades, scientists have warned about the harmful effects of fluoride exposure on the developing brain. Since 63% of the U.S. has fluoride in its drinking water, this is a critical issue affecting millions of Americans! Unfortunately, government agencies like CDC—along with the American Dental Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics—dismissed concerns and stubbornly continued to champion water fluoridation.
This all changed last month with a pivotal court ruling. But, first, some background: In 2016, the NIH’s National Toxicology Program (NTP) was charged with analyzing the large volume of studies on fluoride’s neurotoxicity. Shortly after, an advocacy group sued the EPA in a bid to force it to remove fluoride from drinking water. Knowing that a report from NTP was forthcoming, U.S. District Judge Edward Chen stayed the case until the report’s release. Little did he know how long he would have to wait.
Not only did it take NTP six years to complete the report, but when it was ready to publish in May 2022, officials at CDC and HHS betrayed their duty to the American people by trying to suppress the report! Ultimately, it took another year and a court order from Judge Chen for the report to be released. As HighWire viewers may have suspected, the report did not bode well for water fluoridation.
This September, with the NTP report finally in hand, Judge Chen made his historic ruling: “[T]he Court finds that fluoridation of water at 0.7 milligrams per liter (‘mg/L’) – the level presently considered ‘optimal’ in the United States – poses an unreasonable risk of reduced IQ in children.” He concluded:
[T]here is substantial and scientifically credible evidence establishing that fluoride poses a risk to human health; it is associated with a reduction in the IQ of children and is hazardous at dosages that are far too close to fluoride levels in the drinking water of the United States. And this risk is unreasonable under Amended TSCA.
The court then ordered the EPA to “to engage with a regulatory response,” but the even better news is that many townships aren’t waiting to protect their kids from this toxic exposure. Abilene (TX), Hillsboro (OR), Lebanon (OR), Yorktown (NY), and Winter Haven (FL) have already decided to end, or forego starting, fluoridation in the wake of the Court’s ruling, and many other communities, including Lyndon (WA), Monroe (WI), Naples (FL) and Tampa Bay (FL), are considering the same. Visit the Fluoride Action Network for materials you can use to demand action in your city.
Congratulations to the legal team, with a special kudos to current Siri & Glimstad partner Michael Connett who has focused on fighting the fluoride issue, and the plaintiffs, for this landmark win that will have a lasting impact on the health of all American children!

FIRST ON FOX – Flagship evening newscasts on ABC, CBS and NBC have been “almost uniformly negative” when covering some of President-elect Donald Trump’s most significant Cabinet appointees, according to a new study from the Media Research Center.
The MRC examined all coverage of Trump’s Cabinet appointees on ABC’s “World News Tonight,” “CBS Evening News” and NBC’s “Nightly News” from December 1-14. The study primarily focused on Trump’s Defense Secretary pick Pete Hegseth, FBI Director selection Kash Patel and Director of National Intelligence nominee Tulsi Gabbard, though it also included the other appointments.
Trump’s nominees earned a combined total of 60 minutes and 47 seconds of coverage during the 2-week period. The conservative media watchdog group found that 96% of the coverage was negative.

MRC negative coverage of Trump transition picks
Evening newscasts on ABC, CBS and NBC have been “almost uniformly negative” when covering President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet appointees, according to a new study from the Media Research Center. (Media Research Center)
“Across all three networks, the coverage of Gabbard, Patel, and the handful of other nominees mentioned was entirely negative. Only Pete Hegseth, who received the lion’s share of the airtime, enjoyed a scant four positive evaluative statements, all of which cited his mother describing him as ‘redeemed’ and ‘a changed man,’” MRC senior research analyst Bill D’Agostino wrote.
“To reiterate: the only positive commentary any Trump nominee received on the broadcast networks was from his own mother,” D’Agostino added. “In addition to a whopping 96 percent negative tilt across their flagship evening newscasts, these networks also appear to have paid the most attention to Cabinet nominees who appeared to have the highest chances of sinking.”
CBS spent the most time on Trump’s nominees overall, spending nearly 25 minutes on them with over 14 minutes focusing on Hegseth.
“While CBS had the most negative overall coverage of the Trump transition (96.7%), they actually were softer on Hegseth than their counterparts: 88 percent negative, making them the only network of the three not to cross the 90 percent negative barrier,” D’Agostino wrote.
The second-most transition coverage came from NBC, which was negative 94.7% of the 21 minutes and three seconds spent on Trump’s selections. NBC spent over 11 minutes on Hegseth alone and was the only network to have 100% negative coverage of him, according to the MRC.

ABC spent 19 minutes and 25 seconds on Trump’s nominees, 90% of which was negative, the study found.
“The network devoted 13 minutes and 33 seconds of that time to Hegseth, with a 91% negative slant,” D’Agostino wrote.
Patel was the only other nominee besides Hegseth to receive more than a full minute of coverage from the trio of networks.
“Evaluative statements about Patel across all three networks were uniformly negative,” D’Agostino wrote.
The MRC also found that “the majority of the reports about Hegseth centered around the handful of salacious allegations against him,” but the networks “abruptly lost interest once his chances of being confirmed started to look more promising.”
Republican Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa, considered a pivotal vote in the confirmation battle over Hegseth, initially appeared skeptical but expressed willingness to give him a fair shake on Dec. 9.
“Incidentally Hegseth received 37 of his total 39 minutes of coverage from the three broadcast networks on or before December 10. In other words, once his confirmation appeared probable, the broadcast networks abruptly lost interest in the scandals with which they had inundated their airwaves for the previous week and a half,” D’Agostino wrote.

Tucker Carlson Crowned New Voice of Anti-Israel Fringe After Latest Conspiracy Interview [VIDEO 57:06]
December 19, 2024 Jewish Breaking News – Tucker Carlson’s latest anti-Israel guest has prompted Israel’s diaspora minister to crown his show as the new “leading platform” for antisemitic conspiracy theories.
Economist Jeffrey Sachs used his appearance on Carlson’s show to float an elaborate conspiracy theory claiming Israel secretly orchestrated Assad’s downfall in Syria and has manipulated U.S. foreign policy for decades.
“Syria was a normal, functioning country at the time, despite whatever you read, whatever propaganda,” Sachs said. “What happened in Syria was the culmination of a long-term effort by Israel to reshape the Middle East in its image. Israel has run American foreign policy in the Middle East for 30 years.”
He stated that America only supported Assad’s fall to benefit Israel’s goal to “control the Palestinian people” and prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state. Sachs blamed US lawmakers for being influenced by an “Israel lobby” and repeatedly blamed both Israel and the US for implementing “crushing sanctions” on the Assad regime and attempting to “seize” Syrian oil.
Sachs went on to claim Israel pushed America into the Iraq War after 9/11 and maintains that the Jewish state has abandoned the concept of “land for peace.” He also accused Israel of plotting to drag the U.S. into a military confrontation with Iran.
According to another one of the Columbia professor’s conspiracy theories, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is pursuing a “greater Israel” agenda which will extend “from the Nile to the Euphrates River.”
“This greater Israel idea says ‘we can’t make peace with the Palestinians. So anyone that supports the Palestinians is by definition a mortal threat to us.’ And when you have a mortal threat, you must destroy it.”
Carlson seems to have a fondness for giving airtime to guests peddling anti-Israel conspiracy theories. In September, the former Fox host sparked outrage by featuring Darryl Cooper, a self-styled “historian” who denies the Holocaust and promotes Nazi talking points about World War II. Carlson has also drawn criticism for comparing Ukraine’s Jewish president Volodymyr Zelensky to a “rat” and accusing him of persecuting Christians.
“Congratulations to Tucker Carlson for becoming the leading platform for fringe Holocaust deniers, conspiracy theorists, and blood libel enthusiasts who oppose the State of Israel,” Israel’s minister of diaspora affairs Amichai Chikli wrote on X.

Terrorists Liberate Terrorists from Other Terrorists Daniel Greenfield
What Jerusalem knows and Foggy Bottom has yet to learn is that the Middle East is a bunch of tribal factions, warlords and gangs pretending to be countries, but all are some version of Al-Jawlani bouncing between ISIS, Al Qaeda and a new governing coalition. Opinion.
December 12, 2024 Israeli National News – In a stunning win for freedom, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a Sunni terrorist organization defeated the Assad regime and its Shiite terrorist groups to take over Syria. HTS is led by Abu Mohammed al-Jawlani, a Saudi former associate of the caliph of ISIS who has a $10 million reward on his head from the U.S. while Assad was supported by Hezbollah whose leaders had multi-million dollar rewards on their heads until Israel killed them (but didn’t collect the money.)
Assad was backed by the Shiite terror state of Iran while HTS is backed by the Sunni terror state of Turkey. Geopolitical experts say that Sunni Islamists defeating Shiite Islamists to rule the pile of rubble that’s left of Syria is the biggest win for human freedom since the Muslim Brotherhood took over Egypt and parts of North Africa (before being ousted from Egypt and some other parts of the region) in the freedom phenomenon known as the Arab Spring.
The media broadcast scenes of Jihadists praising Allah for helping them defeat the other Jihadists who also praise Allah (but not in the right way) and liberating political prisoners to shortly replace them with other political prisoners (assuming that they even bother taking political prisoners or any kind of prisoners.) Talks are underway between the terrorists of the former regime with the terrorists of the current regime to see if they can work it out.
And maybe just focus on killing Christians, Jews and other infidels.
Some might suspect that a former ISIS associate tied to Al Qaeda (who admittedly turned on his former group to lead another Jihadist organization) taking over a country would be bad news. But they’re clearly bad people who don’t realize that Al-Jawlani is a changed man, an austere religious scholar who underwent a makeover courtesy of Queer Eye for the Syrian Guy and now, in the words of the BBC, wears a “more western style wardrobe”. At least if you count rocking Zelensky’s military fatigue hand-me-downs as looking like a regular western warlord.
The Biden administration has already made contact with the terrorist organization led by a man on whose head is a $10 million reward to offer to rebuild Syria just in time for the next civil war. Publicly, the administration has already taken credit for helping defeat Assad by insisting that the Israelis must stop attacking Hezbollah at once. Had the Israelis listened, Assad would still be in power. But the Biden administration was surely using reverse psychology and by threatening Israel with an arms embargo was really getting the Israelis to fight even harder.
Or at least that’s the story that National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan is going with.
While the world (or at least the parts of it that completely forgot about the Arab Spring) rejoices, the Israeli government which (for all its failings) has more sense than the State Department or a headless chicken, has begun bombing what’s left of Syria’s rocket factories and chemical warfare plants that Secretary of State John Kerry (despite promising Obama) somehow never got around to making sure that Vladimir Putin would dismantle and put away in cold storage.
The Israelis are also expanding their presence in Mt. Hermon and building their own security zone because they trust Syria’s new terrorist masters as much as they trusted the old.
What Jerusalem knows and Foggy Bottom has yet to learn is that the Middle East is a bunch of tribal factions, warlords and gangs pretending to be countries, but despite the flags, anthems, UN memberships, World Bank positions and invites to climate change summits, are all some version of Al-Jawlani bouncing between ISIS, Al Qaeda and a new governing coalition.
Over a thousand years of Islam comes down to some guy with a beard uniting a few key families with whose backing he then seizes a bunch of cities that used to belong to long lost great civilizations and then his men settle down to some murdering, looting and raping while thanking Allah for the privilege of a mission to kill, loot and rape the world. Or die trying. [Emphasis added]

The J6 Road Home Project: Restoring Lives, One Step at a Time — A Call to Support January 6th Prisoners by J6 defendant Jenny McCombs
Dec. 18, 2024 9:30 am – The journey for those impacted by the events of January 6, 2021, doesn’t end when the prison doors open.
For many, the release marks the beginning of a daunting new chapter—one fraught with the challenges of reintegration into a society that often stigmatizes them.
These men and women have faced profound loss: their businesses, homes, communities, savings, and, in some cases, even the support of their families. They have lost it all.
The J6 Road Home Project stands as a beacon of hope for these individuals, offering them a lifeline to rebuild their lives.
Dedicated to fostering healing, wellness, and restoration in body, soul, and spirit, this comprehensive program is offered entirely free of charge.
It addresses critical needs such as housing, employment support, and emotional recovery, providing a path forward for those striving to reclaim their lives.
***Please donate here at givesendgo.com/j6roadhome***
A Vision Rooted in Compassion and Faith
Guided by the Biblical call in Hebrews 13:3 to “remember those in prison as if you were together with them,” the J6 Road Home Project is about more than meeting material needs.
It’s about restoring dignity, fostering resilience, and demonstrating the transformative power of community and faith. The project’s founders, Doug and Jenny McCombs, bring unparalleled dedication and expertise to this mission.
Jenny, herself a January 6th defendant, offers a deeply empathetic perspective, grounded in her background in counseling and business. She serves as a mentor, helping others navigate emotional recovery, embrace forgiveness, and rebuild their lives through entrepreneurship.
Doug, with his wealth of experience in corporate management and hands-on trades like carpentry and construction, provides practical guidance and support, helping participants develop skills that pave the way for independence and stability.
***Please donate here at givesendgo.com/j6roadhome***
Stories of Strength and Resilience
One of the program’s future beneficiaries is James McGrew, a third-generation Marine Corps veteran. James served his country with honor, enlisting after September 11th and surviving an IED explosion during his deployment in Iraq.
Today, he faces a new battle: rebuilding his life after incarceration. Upon his release, James will join the J6 Road Home community, where he will find not only a place to live but also the tools and support needed to heal and thrive.
James’s story is just one among many. Over 1,569 January 6th defendants, including more than 184 veterans, face similar struggles.
These individuals want to move forward, rebuild their lives, and contribute positively to their communities. By supporting them, we’re investing in second chances and affirming the belief that redemption is always possible.
Meeting the Needs of Reentry
The challenges of reentry are immense. Many January 6th prisoners emerge from incarceration with limited resources, struggling to find housing, employment, and acceptance. The J6 Road Home Project addresses these critical areas:
- Employment: Providing jobs is key to helping individuals regain financial independence and reintegrate into society. If you are an employer willing to hire January 6th defendants, please send us an email to join our database. You can change lives by offering jobs to J6ers ready to rebuild and prove their love for this country.
- Housing: Do you have an RV you’re willing to donate to a J6er? Or room to house a J6er? Please contact us. As we build housing on our property, we are also looking for additional options across Texas.

SHOCK POLL: Over 40 Percent of Young People Say Murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Was Justified By Ben Kew
Dec. 18, 2024 10:15 am
Over 40 percent of young people believe the murder of a prominent healthcare executive justified, according to latest polling.
Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was murdered in cold blood by 26-year-old Luigi Mangioni in New York earlier this month.
While Mangioni’s exact motivations still remain unclear, it appears that the murder was the result of his anger at the American healthcare industry and the refusal of insurance companies to pay for essential care.
A survey conducted by Emerson College found that while the majority of Americans believe that the killing was “unacceptable,” 41 percent of young people believe it was “acceptable.”
The pollster reported:
A majority of voters (68%) think the actions of the killer of the United Healthcare CEO, Brian Thompson, are unacceptable. Seventeen percent find the actions acceptable, while 16% are unsure.
“While 68% of voters overall reject the killer’s actions, younger voters and Democrats are more split — 41% of voters aged 18-29 find the killer’s actions acceptable (24% somewhat acceptable and 17% completely acceptable), while 40% find them unacceptable; 22% of Democrats find them acceptable, while 59% find them unacceptable, this compares to 12% of Republicans and 16% of independents who find the actions acceptable, underscoring shifting societal attitudes among the youngest electorate and within party lines,” Kimball said.
Men were slightly more inclined to find the actions acceptable compared to women: 19% said the actions were acceptable compared to 14% of women.
The murder has led sparked widespread debate about the ethics of the healthcare industry, with many high-ranking politicians showing indifference to the murder or offering a merely lukewarm condemnation.
Among those to play down Mangioni’s crimes was far-left Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), who argued that there will always come a point where people “take matters into their own hands.
“We’ll say it over and over,” Warren said in an interview with Joy Reid. “Violence is never the answer.”
“This guy gets a trial who’s allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands.”
Mangioni has been charged with first-degree murder in furtherance of terrorism, as well a host of other charges.
“There is no heroism in what Mangione did. This was a senseless act of violence,” NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a press conference on Tuesday.
“Any attempt to rationalize this is vile, reckless and offensive to our deeply held principles of justice,” she added.
Elon Musk praises Tucker Carlson interview with Jeffrey Sachs featuring antisemitic conspiracy theories Matthew Kassel
In the interview, Sachs blames ‘the Israel lobby’ for American foreign policy, and defends ousted Syrian dictator Bashar Al-Assad
December 17, 2024 Jewish Insider – Elon Musk is facing scrutiny for amplifying Tucker Carlson’s controversial interview with Jeffrey Sachs, the Columbia professor who, in a lengthy discussion with the former Fox News host released on Monday, espouses a litany of conspiracy theories about Israel and the broader Middle East, among other spurious claims that have drawn criticism.
“Very interesting interview,” Musk wrote in a post to X, his social media platform, on Monday night, while sharing the conversation with his more than 207 million followers.
Musk’s comment is the latest example of how the brash billionaire tech mogul, who has become one of President-elect Donald Trump’s closest advisors in recent weeks, has stirred controversy for boosting extreme content on X — where he has perhaps most notably endorsed an antisemitic conspiracy theory.
In the interview, Sachs, who was once a renowned economist but now frequently promotes conspiracy theories on a range of issues, cast the fall of Syria’s authoritarian regime this month as the culmination of a decades-long plot led by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to oppose any Middle Eastern government supporting the creation of a Palestinian state.
“The United States goes to war on his behalf,” he said of Netanyahu, arguing that “Israel has driven so many American wars.”
Invoking a classic antisemitic trope about Jewish control of American politics, Sachs added that the U.S. “gave over Middle East foreign policy to Israel a long time ago, not to U.S. interest, but to Israel’s interest. That is the Israel lobby, and we don’t hear questioning of this at all.”
In the two-hour conversation with Carlson, who has hosted multiple anti-Israel guests on his streaming show, Sachs also claimed Americans were involved in the overthrow by Islamist rebel forces of Bashar Al-Assad, the ruthless Syrian dictator. He had led a “normal, functioning country,” according to Sachs, dismissing claims to the contrary as the product of misleading propaganda.
His comments otherwise touched on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, looming conflict with China and U.S. intelligence agencies, among other topics Carlson has frequently covered with a conspiratorial eye.
Musk, who also approvingly shared comments from Sachs on social media last month and has likewise appeared on Carlson’s show, did not specify in his post if he agreed with Sachs’ views on Israel and the Middle East, which do not align with the incoming Trump administration. Musk did not respond to a request for comment through X. He otherwise could not be reached.
A spokesperson for the Trump transition team did not respond to a request for comment about Musk’s comment.
But as a key adviser to Trump who has been tapped to lead a new government efficiency department, his endorsement of the interview raises questions about how Musk’s assessment of Middle East policy could influence the administration’s plans to engage in the region.
Musk’s recent actions suggest he could have a hand, for instance, in helping to shape policy toward Iran — whose ambassador to the United Nations he met with last month for a private discussion that fueled concerns among national security experts. Trump’s team has indicated that it will return to a maximum pressure campaign against Iran — and is reportedly weighing preventive airstrikes to contain its nuclear program.
In the interview with Carlson, meanwhile, Sachs said that war with Iran would be the final stage in what he described as Israel’s effort to “reshape the Middle East in its image,” while claiming that the Islamic Republic “has been asking for peace” and “reaching out to the Biden administration for the last two years.”
While Musk has voiced support for Israel and met with Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders, he has faced backlash for allowing antisemitism to flourish on X, his social media site. Last year, he helped lend credence to an antisemitic conspiracy theory that is embraced by white nationalists. He later apologized for the offending post.
During the election, Musk, who spent more than $250 million to boost Trump, also funded a GOP super PAC behind a slate of contradictory ads that targeted Vice President Kamala Harris’ record on Israel. The ad campaign, which targeted Jewish and Muslim voters in different states, was criticized by members of both parties as a cynical effort to play both sides of a uniquely polarizing issue.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission Reports Missing Radioactive Waste Material
17 DECEMBER 2024.
Originally published in the New American
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) released an event notification report on December 13 announcing that a radioactive pin source was reported missing on December 3. (A “pin source” is a tiny radioactive “pin” used for calibrating medical-imaging scanners.)
The Germanium-68 (Ge-68) waste material was being transported for disposal, and went missing while in transit in Newfield, New Jersey. “The shipping container arrived at its destination damaged and empty,” noted the report. In its notification to the NRC, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) stated:
The licensee reported to NJDEP on December 3, 2024, that a Ge-68 pin source that they sent for disposal [was] lost in transit on December 2, 2024. The source is [an] Eckert & Ziegler model HEGL-0132, with current approximate activity of 0.267 mCi. The shipping container arrived at its destination damaged and empty. The licensee has filed a claim with the shipper. If the source is not located within the 30 days, the licensee will follow-up with a full written report to include root cause(s) and corrective actions.
The event report said the missing material contained a very small amount of radioactive material. “This material event contains a ‘less than Cat3’ level of radioactive material,” it stated:
Sources that are “Less than IAEA Category 3 sources,” are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury.
The pin was used to calibrate PET/CT scanners, and was used at the Nazha Cancer Center in New Jersey. The NRC notification stated the event was reportable under 10 CFR 20.2201(a)(1)(ii):
Within 30 days after the occurrence of any lost, stolen, or missing licensed material becomes known to the licensee, all licensed material in a quantity greater than 10 times the quantity specified in appendix C to part 20 that is still missing at this time [must be reported to the NRC].
[Ed.:
🚨Drone Mystery “SOLVED”….
Umm…. no it’s not.
Everyone is sharing the first graphic stating that Nuclear Material has gone missing as the reason drones are flying around…
YES… the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission reported radioactive material was LOST in New Jersey.
REALITY… what was lost was a GE-68 Pin Source (second photo) for a Eckert and Ziegler Model HEGL-0132, which was lost during shipping for disposal.
This is utilized to calibrate PET scanner systems… Used as a transmission standard to provide a tissue density correction to permit accurate diagnostic scanning of patients
THIS MATERIAL contains ‘Less than Cat 3’ LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL
Sources that are “Less than IAEA Category 3 sources,” are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury.
If you stood next to it naked for a year you would absorb 10 millsievert. (1/100th). Equivalent to a normal CT scan.
People are either knowingly sharing these things trying to confuse the public, or they just don’t read what the hell they are posting for clicks.
Be very careful who you’re getting your info from. [Emphasis added]

Candace Owens Named Antisemite of the Year
December 17, 2024 Jewish Breaking News – Conservative podcaster Candace Owens has been named this year’s Antisemite of the Year by a watchdog group monitoring anti-Jewish bigotry after the former Daily Wire personality pushed antisemitic blood libels and a host of conspiracy theories aimed at Jews.
This week StopAntisemitism announced that Owens, 35, had received over 30,000 votes in the annual Antisemite of the Year poll, beating out climate activist Greta Thunberg.
“Owens edged out Hamas apologist Greta Thunberg and terror-supporting Twitch streamer Hasan Piker for the title, inheriting the dishonor from 2022 winner, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib,” StopAntisemitism said.
“Once celebrated for her unapologetic takes that catapulted her into the conservative spotlight, Owens was given platforms by prominent Jewish conservatives like Dennis Prager and Ben Shapiro. But after Hamas’s October 7th massacre, she revealed her shocking antisemitism, leading to her departure from Shapiro’s Daily Wire and condemnation from PragerU.
“Owens’ remarks were so vile that even evangelical and conservative groups denounced her, including her father-in-law, Sir Michael Farmer. In addition, She’s been banned from countries like New Zealand and Australia, blaming the fallout on a ‘Zionist media empire.’”
“From defending Hitler’s actions in Germany and mocking Jewish fears over Kanye West’s antisemitic tweets to claiming Israel forces Muslims into segregated quarters and insinuating Hollywood is run by ‘sinister Jewish gangs’, Owens has been rightfully crowned 2024’s Antisemite of the Year.”
Owens responded to the announcement in a series of tweets, comparing StopAntisemitism to the Black Lives Matter movement.
“Obviously I will prepare an acceptance speech for my show tomorrow. So many people to thank,” she wrote.
“The ratio under this post is incredible lol. Zionists are completely out of touch. Reminiscent of BLM in 2020 running around calling everything and everyone racist. From excruciatingly annoying, to mildly entertaining to utterly obsolete. We are all fatigued with ‘antisemitism’.”
Once a prominent personality in The Daily Wire‘s lineup, Owens parted ways with the conservative platform in March following a series of controversial comments regarding Israel, Jews, and Daily Wire cofounder Ben Shapiro.
Along with promoting claims of an evil “Zionist empire” controlling world affairs and Jewish-run Hollywood sex gangs, Owens has also challenged the historical veracity of the Holocaust and even appeared to offer a defense of Adolf Hitler.
“We have been indoctrinated, and we actually know nothing about the person other than the fact that we must fear him,” Owens said in July.
In the same podcast, Owens cast doubt on the Holocaust, calling it “an ethnic cleansing [that] almost took place,” while accusing the Allied powers of ethnically cleansing Germans in eastern Europe.
The Allied powers, she claimed, “ethnically cleansed 12 million Germans… in the exact same [concentration] camps that we then transferred the Germans into so that we could mass kill them.”
Owens also denied the medical experiments – often deadly – conducted by SS officer Josef Mengele, calling documentation of the experiments “bizarre propaganda.”
“The idea that they just cut a human up and then sewed them back together. Why would you do that? Even if you’re the most evil person in the world, that’s a tremendous waste of time and supplies,” she said.

New Videos Show UNRWA Employees Torture, Solitary Confinement, Suffocation Gazan Civilians to Death By Pamela Geller

The UN is in panic mode after Israel released videos from Gaza’s security cameras showing Hamas employees of UNRWA torturing Gazan civilians to death. Among the prisoners who were killed there are many innocent gay people, journalists, protesters, Christians and anyone suspected of spying or leaving Islam (ex-Muslims).
This is what the UN, the international community and the Western media support when they side with Hamas, Gaza’s Health Ministry and UNRWA.
Solitary Confinement, Suffocation, Prisoners Thrown Down Stairs: New Footage Reveals Hamas’ Abuse of Gaza Prisoners
The IDF has released videos from 2023 taken from security cameras inside Hamas’ “Al-Katiba” Prison Gaza City, which expose severe abuse by Hamas prison guards against prisoners, including holding them in brutal conditions that violate their most basic human rights.
Hamas has tried to distance itself from the Assad regime and the atrocities exposed in Syrian prisons, but the footage and previous revelations about Hamas’ torture investigations leave no room for doubt—Hamas is equally ruthless.
“Al-Katiba” Prison has previously gained infamy when human rights organizations accused Hamas of carrying out brutal executions of dozens of Gazans, including women, within the prison compound.
Below is footage showing the severe abuse of prisoners by Hamas terrorists.

Biden Commuted Sentences for Scammers Who Defrauded $5 billion From Over 1 Million Victims 2ND SMARTEST GUY IN THE WORLD
DEC 17, 2024
How absolutely fitting that the demented diaper soiling ice cream licking pedo criminal puppet “president” who in his lifetime accomplished less than zero in the private sector and only ever grifted off the taxpayer dime while extracting bribes as “the big guy” would end up on his way out of office pardoning some of the worst white collar Ponzi schemers in American history. [Emphasis added]
Biden commuted sentences for scammers who defrauded $5 billion from over 1 million victims.
It’s the single mass jailbreak of scammer in history Here are some of the names and stories.
Zeek CEO Paul Burks’ $900 million Ponzi scam claimed over 1 million working-class victims.
A decade later, victims of the scam in a town in North Carolina are still suffering. People took out mortgages on their homes and cashed out their life savings.
Biden had no sympathy for them. Only for the CEO.

Turkey’s Syrian Jihadists Take Over Syria: Kurds, Half a Million Christians Under Intolerable Threat by Uzay Bulut
December 16, 2024 at 5:00 am
- A former branch of Al Qaeda, in 2018, HTS [Hayat Tahrir al-Sham] was officially designated a terrorist organization by the US government. HTS, which cooperates with the Turkish military and Turkish-backed groups in Syria, is committed to establishing an Islamist state across Syria, at least for a start.
- Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Al-Jolani are now making all sorts of human-rightsy promises that they know the West likes to hear – just as Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini did before he took over Iran, and as the Taliban did before they quickly demolished 20 years of US human rights progress in Afghanistan.
- Just as Iran is the Shiite “head of the octopus” whose tentacles consist of Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis and other assorted militias, so Erdogan is the Sunni “head of the octopus” in Syria. While everyone is busy staring at rival terrorist groups in Syria, it is crucial not to forget for a minute the country backing them: Turkey.
- Erdogan’s dream has always been “the liberation of Jerusalem”…. A Sunni jihadi Syria provides a conveniently straight path to fulfill that long-term dream.
The Assad family’s rule of Syria, which lasted more than 50 years, collapsed on December 8. Jihadist forces took control of Damascus after President Bashar al-Assad escaped to a luxurious life in Moscow. Today, roughly half a million Christians and 2.5 million Kurds in Syria face a future of persecution and abuse at the hands of jihadist terrorists.
The offensive launched by the jihadists of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), formerly the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda, began on November 27. These terrorists, backed by Turkey, first captured Aleppo and a string of other towns and cities in a matter of days, before converging on Damascus.
Since 2017, HTS has been the dominant Islamist militia in Syria. A former branch of Al Qaeda, in 2018, HTS was officially designated a terrorist organization by the US government. The group’s name, Hayat Tahrir al Sham, means “Organization for the Liberation of the Levant,” meaning much of the Middle East, including Israel, Lebanon and Jordan. Since 2019, HTS, working with Turkey, has controlled northern Idlib through the so-called “Syrian Salvation Government” (SSG). Now, as Turkey and the HTS plan to “reshape Syria,” both Kurds and Christians find themselves under siege.
HTS, which cooperates with the Turkish military and Turkish-backed groups in Syria, is committed to establishing an Islamist state across Syria, at least for a start. The founder and current leader of HTS is Ahmed Hussein Al-Shara, better known as Abu Mohammed Al-Jolani, Before founding HTS, Jolani led Jabhat Al-Nusra, a Syrian al Qaeda affiliate.
In a 2019 report on terrorism by the US State Department, HTS/Al-Nusrah Front is described as one of “the world’s most active and dangerous terrorist groups”.
In 2022, the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) held a hearing on religious freedom in Syria, and stated:
“The al-Qaeda offshoot Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) continues to brutalize and displace religious minority communities in the northwestern region of Idlib, and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has increased its presence in eastern Syria, waging almost daily attacks and destabilizing the region for religious minorities. Opposition groups leverage their Turkish financing and military support to wage campaigns of religious and ethnic cleansing in Afrin.”
During the jihadi offensive that began last month, HTS was supported on the northern front by the Syrian National Army (SNA), a coalition of a dozen Islamist armed groups largely financed, equipped and trained by Turkey.
According to a 2022 report by the US State Department, at the time, most Syrian Christians lived in and around Damascus, Aleppo, Homs, Hama, Latakia and Hasakah.
All these areas except for Hasakah (the majority of which is currently under Kurdish control) fell to Turkish-backed jihadists beginning on November 27.
According to the human rights organization Open Doors, there are around 579,000 Christians in Syria. Many of them fled cities and villages seized by jihadists, to take refuge in the formerly government-controlled Wadi al-Nasara (“Valley of Christians”). With the collapse of the Assad regime, the Valley has fallen to jihadists, and the lives of those Christians are in danger.

Officials still claim that drones over US are no threat, yet they have no answers for their source By Charlotte Hazard
A New Jersey sheriff has sent his own private drone to follow the drones to see if he can get any more information.
December 14, 2024 5:08 pm ET Just The News – White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby told Fox News on Friday that the government has no definitive answers regarding the source of drones and other objects flying over New Jersey, New York and other states as concerns and frustration continue to grow.
“Many of the corroborated sightings have turned out to be piloted aircraft. I didn’t say all of them, and what I said was those are the ones we were able to corroborate,” Kirby said on Fox News. “There certainly is ones that we have not been able to, and we don’t know the answer to it, and I strongly recommend that for folks that are seeing these things and documenting them to share that as they can with the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI.”
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Friday that the mysterious drones that have been caught hovering over New Jersey are not a threat.
“We know of no threat or nefarious activity, and I want to repeat…..that if we learn of any cause for concern, we will be transparent in our communication,” Mayorkas said during a CNN interview, according to The Hill.
Rep. Chris Smith, R-NJ, said that he spent Monday night on a beach where he spoke with several individuals, including a U.S. Coast Guard commanding officer stationed nearby. Smith told Fox News that the commanders said a Coast Guard vessel had been closely followed by more than a dozen drones the previous night.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) last week issued two flight restrictions on the area surrounding President-elect Donald Trump’s Bedminster golf club in New Jersey, following questionable drone activity. The drone sightings were first reported on Nov. 18, but still continue this week.
Federal officials have claimed that they do not know much about the drones, but have assured the public that there has been no threat to the American people as a result of the activity. The Pentagon also said they have not found any evidence that a foreign entity is behind it.
A New Jersey sheriff has sent his own private drone to follow the drones to see if he can get any more information.
“If this is not our military, then it’s even more scary,” Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy said, according to the New York Post. “These things look like they are fixed-wing and they have multiple lights. I’m not really sure how to process what I saw last night. Both the photographer and I were kind of stunned.”
New Jersey Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy sent a letter to the Biden administration, demanding more action and answers.
New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul on Saturday said that everything going on with the drones has gone “too far.”
The runways of Stewart International Airport were shut down for an hour due to the drones. Hochul called on Congress to take action, according to the New York Post.
[Ed.: If Mayorkas says it’s not a threat he knows two things that we don’t know. One, that they are not from Iran, and two that they are US drones. Therefore we know that for sure, the drones are indeed a threat!]
President Trump Reveals “Outside Govt – President’s Intelligence Advisory Board” Headed by Chairman Devin Nunes Sundance
December 14, 2024 THE LAST REFUGE – President Donald Trump has revealed something very important to those who fully understand the nature and construct of the DC Silo system. An outside government “Intelligence Advisory Board,” perhaps the ultimate cross-silo information system.
[SOURCE]
The approach of an Intelligence Advisory Board has the possibility to fracture the mechanism used by the DC Intelligence Community to isolate the president.
Within the various intel agencies, they use a process of building silos of information that are not shared outside the origination agency unless certain rules are followed. This is a mechanism to retain control.
One of these control mechanisms is found in the classification process. Each agency (colloquially called a ‘stakeholder’) has unilateral control over their unique contribution to a collective document or intelligence product. Unless every stakeholder agrees to the declassification, the intel product is withheld and remains “siloed”. That’s just one example, there are hundreds more.
An Intelligence Advisory Board is essentially the Bullshit Calling Committee, that can help the President determine which parts of the intelligence information are factually likely and which parts are transparently political.
NOVEMBER 14th REMINDER:
Almost every day an intelligence community overview assessment is compiled, it’s called the Presidential Daily Briefing or PDB.
The PDB contains content primarily produced by the CIA. However, in the modern era, the PDB is assembled and enhanced by adding information from other intelligence agencies (silos). The Director of National Intelligence assembles it; the position Tulsi Gabbard has recently been nominated for.
The DNI (now Tulsi) compiles the information, then delivers the PDB to the President, the National Security Advisor (now Mike Waltz) and the list of people assigned by the President to review it.
The PDB is the Intelligence Community (IC) telling the Office of the President, this is what’s going on. The PDB frames the worldview of the CIA and other agencies.
However, if the CIA/IC wants to frame policy and action to their agenda – and not to the agenda of the president/administration per se’ – the CIA/IC can shape the PDB information toward their own individual objectives. In the past several decades the CIA manipulation of the PDB became obvious.
Because the PDB was no longer considered to be an “independent” finding of fact, and was/is, instead, more of a CIA tool to shape and control the president, it became increasingly useless.
President Obama saw the traps within the CIA/IC use of the PDB and started to ignore it. Obama gave the PDB to almost two-dozen administration officials daily, essentially saying, “here this is what the CIA say is going on – check it out.” Meanwhile Obama did what he wanted to do in shaping policy, often regardless of the PDB content.
With an incoming President Trump administration, the CIA/IC use of the PDB to manipulate outcomes will be even more on display.
With that in mind, here’s one approach that might be worth considering.
Make the CIA/IC (now Ratcliffe/Tulsi) provide a footnote for every assertion of fact within the PDB.
Put the footnotes into a classified appendix that includes sources and methods and give the appendix only to the National Security Advisor, now Mike Waltz. [ie. ‘Review and return’]
Let NSA Mike Waltz then review the attributions of source material in the White House SCIF. Then, if any concerns are noted, Waltz can turn to the National Security Council with a generalized statement describing the concern saying, “check this out.”
The NSC can then dig into the granular details and return with their own independent assessment about the validity of the information.
The National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz, can then go question the specific CIA/IC silo about any contradiction that might be at issue.
Do this enough times, and I predict the PDB will quickly change in both tone and content. The originators of the intelligence assessment, the CIA and other agencies, will be on notice that their homework is being checked by the National Security Council.
…. Or maybe, the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board!
Just a thought.

FBI, DHS claim they have ‘no evidence’ drone sightings over NJ are ‘national security threat’ Thomas Stevenson
“We have no evidence at this time that the reported drone sightings pose a national security or public safety threat or have a foreign nexus.”
Dec 13, 2024 The Postmillennial – The FBI and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released a statement on Friday about reports of drone sightings in New Jersey and claimed that the agencies have “no evidence” that the drones “pose a national security or public safety threat or have a foreign nexus” and that they were “operating lawfully.”
In a joint statement from both security agencies, the FBI and DHS claimed, “We have no evidence at this time that the reported drone sightings pose a national security or public safety threat or have a foreign nexus.
“The FBI, DHS and our federal partners, in close coordination with the New Jersey State Police, continue to deploy personnel and technology to investigate this situation and confirm whether the reported drone flights are actually drones or are instead manned aircraft or otherwise inaccurate sightings,” the statement added. “Historically, we have experienced cases of mistaken identity, where reported drones are, in fact, manned aircraft or facilities. We are supporting local law enforcement in New Jersey with numerous detection methods but have not corroborated any of the reported visual sightings with electronic detection.”
The agencies went on to claim that many of the reported sightings of the drones were “manned aircraft” and were “operating lawfully.” They added, “There are no reported or confirmed drone sightings in any restricted air space.”
“We take seriously the threat that can be posed by unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), which is why law enforcement and other agencies continue to support New Jersey and investigate the reports,” the agencies added. “To be clear, they have uncovered no such malicious activity or intent at this stage. While there is no known malicious activity occurring in New Jersey, the reported sightings there do, however, highlight the insufficiency of current authorities.”
The joint statement from the FBI and DHS comes as not only New Jersey but also Oregon and New York citizens have reported drone sightings and objects in the sky. President-elect Donald Trump posted about the sightings on Truth Social, “Mystery Drone sightings all over the Country. Can this really be happening without our government’s knowledge. I [don’t] think so! Let the public know, and now. Otherwise, [shoot] them down!”
