What does Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom have in common with Islam? Aside from the movie being a fantasy both are about murder/terror cults. Oh yes it is, kidnapping and slavery alive and well in the Muslim world to this day and feminists should be going crazy that in Islam a woman is worth 1/4th that of a man (Read a Koran).

Any poor woman raped in the muslim word must have four muslim men testify in her behalf or she can be put to death (Islamic law)- Read a Koran.

Did you know Muhammed married a 9 year old girl, yes he did, (Read a Koran) and to this day a Muslim father can sell or give away a 9 yo daughter.

Ever hear of “honor killing”? Muslim fathers can kill wives or daughters for offending Muslim traditions or disobediences to his commands. yes they can (Read a Koran).

And don’t get me starter on “The Religion of Peace.” Go on your computer for “the religion of peace” if you are lazy and don’t want to get a Koran.

Religion of Peace? The Koran has 109 verses dedicated to war with nonbelievers and very few dedicated to tolerance and peace. All Muslims must engage in this war directly or indirectly or they’ll be condemned to hell.

This has been the ideology for 1400 years. It’s a bad ideology.

Since 9-11 there has been 45,293 terrorist attacks world wide. In the past 30 days, 98 attacks. In 2023 there were 1,784 attacks that killed 11,424 people and injured 12,999. In 2022 there were 1,198 attacks killing 9,025 people and injuring 6,815. In 2021 there were 2,281 attacks, 11,831 dead 9,599 injured.

The list goes on and on like this for more than a thousand years of wars of conquest, slavery and terror.

Not so very peaceful really.

The world is so weird that the judge in the Trump case (34 felony convictions) just notified all parties that a Facebook post was discovered announcing the verdict before the verdict was announced.

BREAKING: Judge Merchan sends letter to parties in NY Trump case notifying them that this comment was left on their Facebook page before the verdict:

“My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted & Thank you folks for all your hard work!!!!.” pic.twitter.com/u5SBuNQs6y

Here is the official NY Court System PDF.

People v DJT 6-7-24 Letter to Parties

It all seems legitimate, but so did the justice system.

All things being equal (and just), this is likely grounds for a mistrial and the 34 felony counts being vacated pending a retrial. Or something. The lawyers can help me out with this. I don’t have much more to add than this excellent response to the original.

According to 51 former intelligence officials, that Facebook comment is Russian disinformation.

I know he’s joking, but seriously. Jurors are forbidden from discussing the case with anyone, including each other, outside the deliberation room. This is a huge breach, but given the railroading we’ve already witnessed, can we expect anything approaching typical procedure in this circumstance?

Closing thought: What if the leak was deliberate as an escape valve for what was a very poorly handled and badly executed political persecution? It’s kind of like Biden’s sudden rebound on the border, except what Biden did was meaningless. This. This would be something.

Back in 2019, Hasbro released a woke feminist version of one of its more historically popular board games, as Monopoly. Ms. Monopoly “recognizes inventions that women created or contributed to and gives bonuses to female players.”

That’s the sanitized Wikipedia description. What they mean by bonuses is that “Women get $1,900 at the start of the game and receive $240 salary when passing “Go,” whereas men start with $1,500 and receive a $200 salary.”

I’m not sure who made those choices, but my first thought was how insulting it is to women. In the regular version, everyone starts out the same, and sex is irrelevant. Gameplay and a bit of luck decide who wins. An observation shared across the political spectrum.

Reception towards Ms. Monopoly was mostly negative upon its announcement. Eric Thurm, the author of “Avidly Reads: Board Games”, said the game created a “surface-level fantasy world” where women succeed simply because of their gender. Madeleine Kearns of National Review called it “patronizing pointlessness”. Queens College‘s philosophy department head Christine Sypnowich said it was “unhelpful to portray women as needing special advantages.” Jennifer Borda, an associate professor specializing in feminist studies at the University of New Hampshire, suggested that it would be more suitable if male players instead faced challenges women face in the workplace.

I’m not sure what those challenges are. I know they exist, but I am not a woman, so I can’t possibly see that work through their eyes. I can say that even back in the 70s, I had female superiors. Bosses. Managers. No more or less competent than their male equivalents. They either knew and did their job, or they didn’t. Sex was irrelevant. I understand that’s not true everywhere, certainly not then and to some extent now, but these days, women graduate college at higher rates and make decent money, not that it matters in this economy.

There will always be glass ceilings and hurdles. Women haven’t made any sort of an inroad into men’s professional sports (for obvious reasons), and there aren’t very many female undersea welders or oil rig workers. I could list dozens of high-paying, dangerous jobs women don’t want, and there is an equally long list of things women don’t want in many other jobs that make them less of an asset and that likely affect pay.

Men and women are different in many ways, including how they view work, location, willingness to travel, hours, commitment, and job choices.

Ms. Monopoly does us a disservice by making assumptions that even women find insulting.

Maybe Monopoly needs a Trans Ms. Monopoly. A world where men pretending to be women have more rights and opportunities than actual women.

We’ll be waiting.

Former New Hampshire State Senator Chuck Morse filed with the Secretary of State David M. Scanlon to replace Governor Chris Sununu, calling out Kelly Ayotte and standing his ground as a true conservative.

Before we answer the question in the headline, we need to reflect on D-Day in 1944. This action was the largest multinational assault in history. The invasion force included 7,000 ships and landing craft manned by over 195,000 naval personnel from eight allied countries.

Almost 133,000 troops from the United States, the British Commonwealth, and their allies landed on D-Day. Casualties from these countries during the landing numbered 10,300. By June 30, over 850,000 men, 148,000 vehicles, and 570,000 tons of supplies had landed on the Normandy shores.

The average age of American servicemen that day was 20. Barely out of high school, some lied about their age to volunteer; these heroes were the pinnacle of patriotism and sacrifice. 1944 was a point in time when there was a national love for our country. It was fashionable to be patriotic, and few would dissent from that national wave. These men and women left home to go to fight and die for future generations to enjoy peace and freedom. Some went to Europe to fight the Germans and Italians, while some, like my dad, went to the South Pacific to turn back the Japanese. They did their jobs in both theaters, came home, built a great country, and never spoke about their experiences. They did not start the battle but banded together to shut it down quickly and became the Greatest Generation, a title they will never lose.

Today, patriotism is challenged rather than embraced. You only need to look at the unrest on college campuses in May, where students occupied. Courtyards and buildings alike in an attempt to get these schools to suspend financial activities with Israel. These ignorant young adults have been indoctrinated since the first day they set foot in a classroom. They have been told America is an evil country built with the blood and sweat of Black slaves. They have been taught that capitalism is corrupt and designed so that only the rich do well. They are convinced that our Republic is broken and should be replaced with a Socialist form instead, where everyone has an equal outcome regardless of the effort invested.

How could we ever see these ungrateful individuals setting aside their dreams and wishes to come together and put their lives on the line to thwart a foe who wants to harm America? It is unrealistic, and we best hope that there is no Third Reich on the horizon, or we best learn to speak German.

We are seeing the beginnings of countries positioning themselves to become the sole superpower in control of the globe. China is attacking us economically and killing our citizens in their prime with Fentanyl. They are buying up our farmland and setting up thousands of illegal pot farms nationwide. They have been stealing our intellectual property for years, and our men and women have shown their stripes. Rather than rallying around the flag and saying not in our backyard, recruitment numbers are falling well below goals.

The Greatest Generation will be gone in a few years, and they will pass knowing that no future generation will threaten their title. It was well earned, and I am sure it gives them no satisfaction to see what America has evolved into. Today’s America is not what their brothers and sisters spilled their blood for. We salute and thank you, men and women of World War II, and we are sorry for what happened on our watch.

As the great President Ronald Reagan said in 1984: “If not us, who? If not now, when? The Greatest Generation said we will, and now. God Bless them and wrap his arms around them.
