When you were younger and were feeling curious about making love, you’d likely move online, look for what it was you wanted to know, and push about the initially result. Without a uncertainty, that would get a porn webpage, and you’d receive your sexual understanding from that. Certainly adult movie...
We’re now at that strange nexus where Brian Kilmeade’s attempt to pin Prince Phil’s death on the granddaughter-in-law fits other anti-semitic and racist tropes fronted by Fox News. This because of counting artifacts in threes. “The New York Time’s (NYT) Upshot examined the statistical prevalence of celebrity deaths in threesomes. How did they do...
Because “something bad happened”, the Wall Street Journal has the criminal solicitation tapes: The anti-Slenderman wants you to overturn an election because who would believe that he’d suborn racketeering, or election fraud, or bribery. Cocaine Bear is getting worried the wolf is at the door with that indictment, because Merrick Garland is...
Reminding us that the post-presidency Trump will be grifting at a global level. x The US President superimposed a Nobel prize he didn’t win on this video. https://t.co/ttXOriwCsK pic.twitter.com/FiIWKJzkSs— southpaw (@nycsouthpaw) December 29, 2020 President Trump releases a video based on the classic “Beef, it's what's for dinner” ad: “Trump...
Yemen’s Houthi rebels in Yemen finally gave the United Nations access to a disintegrating oil tanker that threatens the northern Red Sea and Gulf of Aqaba's coral reefs and coastal communities. Safer, the tanker, had been abandoned with over 1.1 million barrels of crude oil (four times the amount of the...

There’s a BeijingBiden website, but Trump seems to have decided not to use this insult in speeches, leaving that meme to surrogates and media bottom-feeders. The meme was important to the Trump campaign in April, but since China “prefers” Biden, no amount of “China Virus” can offset Americans’ awareness of...
The placing of 90 op-eds in a range of 40+ media outlets signals some real disinformation problems at work. One guess is that one of many (Saudi/UAE/Russia?) intelligence services have been doing this. This Daily Beast article shows how deep the information battle operates. http://www.thedailybeast.com/… Badani is part of a...
Ivanka Trump spent the weekend in Dubai to escape her father’s grotesque ogling do something or other obliquely related to her White House advisory role promote the Trump International Golf Club. x Trump International Golf Club in Dubai is promoting its anniversary celebration on Instagram during @IvankaTrump's United Arab Emirates trip....
The next question is about bibliography, which 25 books? Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s son-in-law and the architect of his Middle East peace plan, said that he has read 25 books on the decades-old conflict as he defended the plan. He told Sky News Arabia: “I’ve been studying this now for three years. I’ve...
Threats against 52 Iranian “cultural sites” are more Trumpian gaslighting and a projection of hope that Iran will reciprocate by attacking the US in a way that galvanizes national support for military action like 9/11. President Trump doubles down on his threat to attack Iranian cultural sites if it should...
More reports of Trump’s continuing barrage of disinformation and outright lies to bring in the New Year. So it appears that @SpeakerPelosi is throwing a New Year’s Eve party inside @realDonaldTrump’s head. #IMPOTUS https://t.co/SlGNCSOqYY — George Conway🌻 (@gtconway3d) January 1, 2020 Trump is at his golf club in West Palm...
I’ve never served in the military. I grew up in a strict household under my Dad and went to private Catholic schools were there was always some authority figure bearing down. Therefore, the last place I wanted to be was in the military. As time has gone by though, I...
Turkish-backed Syrian Arab fighters killed at least two Kurdish prisoners on Saturday, one of them lying on the ground with his hands bound behind his back, in a powerful illustration of the forces unleashed by President Trump’s decision to pull back American troops shielding former Kurdish allies in northern Syria....
The predicted bloodbath unfolds. Wapo does an excellent summary of the current situation. x Turkish state-backed media hails a “successful operation†to “neutralize†an unarmed 35-year old woman working to unite Arabs, Christians, and Kurds in NE Syria. Ms. Hevrin Khalef was reportedly dragged from a vehicle and shot to...
Wednesday’s anniversary memorial service for Jamal Khashoggi reminds us that on the same day of the Ukraine call, Trump vetoed resolutions in Congress to block the sale of $8.1bn (£6.5bn) worth of weapons to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. The Senate failed to overturn the veto, allowing precision-guided munitions technology to...
Stephen Miller is behind all of the carnage we are facing. We have known Trump is a puppet and I read and reread Miller’s biography and I wonder why Mueller did not interview him. The House should start immediate investigations on Stephen Miller. Based on this, I believe he is...
Apparently people don’t. Nor do they remember that his actual response was half hearted, strangely worded, and McCain and his campaign immediately backtracked to excuse McCain’s supporters for their flagrant bigotry. So let’s back up a bit to give some context. The news cycle in recent days has been dominated by stories...
The Washington Post had an op-ed this morning — Our new Saddam Hussein — that got me to thinking about our insistence on repeating the same mistake in the Middle East, a region notoriously unforgiving of mistakes. In brief: We backed Shah Reza Pahlevi in Iran, he was a ruthless...
Unlike the late night comics, I didn’t find it funny nor amusing that Trump called himself an “extremely stable genius” and then went around the room to demand his toadies proclaim how great and calm he was after his temper tantrum. It wasn’t funny to me—more along the lines of...
Received this e-mail today from Democracy for America: We have huge news: DFA is officially endorsing Ammar Campa-Najjar for Congress. Last year, DFA members helped Ammar come within 3 points of defeating Rep. Duncan Hunter in a district deep in Trump country. He was a first-time candidate and a Latino Arab-American...
I should preface this by saying, yeah, there’s no evidence for this. Mediaite: Bernard Kerik — a former New York police commissioner whose nomination by President Bush to serve as head of Homeland Security was derailed after he was sentenced to four years in prison on eight felony charges, including tax...
After MoveOn members asked candidates to skip the AIPAC conference, no 2020 Democratic presidential candidates are yet publicly committed to attend the AIPAC conference in DC this weekend!

NOTE: If you’re a “ChemTruther”… if you disagree with Amnesty International, the OPCW, WHO, MSF, the UN (breakdown), and all public evidence about past attacks, and are here to do the same about the most recent one… leave. You’re not welcome here, any more than a 9/11 Truther would be welcome in a liveblog about 9/11. That said,...
No lead-in needed; we all know what’s happened, and we all know what looks to be in the works. Let’s get into the news, but first, let’s get into the players (if you already know all this, feel free to skip): Syria / Assad: No introduction needed. Controls generally the...
With all of this time that had past, I was convinced, sure, somebody was going to write about the fact that the US looks to be preparing for a new round of missile strikes on Syria. After all, it was such big news on this site the last time; does nobody...
David Brooks states the issue properly: Given the financial crisis, widening inequality, the unpopularity of the right’s stances on social issues and immigration, you would have thought that progressive parties would be cruising from win to win. But, instead, right-leaning parties are doing well. In the United States, Republicans control...
Republication. Done to correct the linked title. Please forgive…. Unless you follow the Arabs and world press you are not going to see the answers to this mystery. NY Times got in a one-sentence mention after the Charlie Hebdo attacks. Nothing you'd call substance. You will see no extended media...
The Holy Land has its problems. One big one, if we're going to be honest about this, is is that the Jewish community in Israel is plagued with dishonesty. During the run up to the March 17th election, Likud's promises for cabinet positions and sub-positions involved the usual imprecisions. But...
And there's more. United Torah Judaism put the Knesset's Finance Committee on the table, plus the health portfolio. That Finance Committee chairmanship is looking to have a potential to be a back breaker. Likud has no fewer than four interested parties lined up wanting it. Though to be fair, Kulanu...
Saudis flying American jet fighters are attacking targets at Sana'a, the capital of Yemen. They also hit other sites across the western half of the country. At least 27 civilians have been killed, probably more. None of the targets connect with al-Qaeda or other terror groups. Instead, these attacks hit...
From last Wednesday: Contrary to corporate MSM: Israel's Kulanu “All Of Us” Party will decide the election Little did I know on Wednesday how close that title fit to post-election events. UPDATE: Bibi may be on his way out. Senior members of the Zionist Union party confirmed to Maariv on...
UPDATE: Friday, March 20th — Times of Israel, initial source, reports on its front web page that Channel 2 in Israel reports that Moshe Kahlon has agreed to support Bibi Netanyahu and Likud to form a government. There is nothing up about this at the party web sites. Reports on...
All in all this looks to have been the worst week for the Islamists since May of 2011 when Osama bin Laden was killed and his files and computers were seized in the same raid. For every Saudi/GCC proxy in the area, they're in trouble. All across the board they're...
I count 43 interruptions for applause. I count one substantive. That is Prime Minister Netanyahu's assertion that the twitter account of Iran's Ayatollah Khamenei was used to post statements calling for “annihilating” Israel. In fact, the instrument for “annihilation” is a regional election. Here's the twitter image: I don't see...
“Extremist Islamic Terrorists” An oxymoron. “Islamic” is the generic term for all things Muslim. Used properly it applies to practicing Muslims regardless of country, sect, race, or sex. The murderer, torturer, kidnapper, rapist psychopaths at ISIS/Da'ish would give their eye teeth to be Islamic. ISIS is not a part of...
This is crazy stuff. The United States and Israel are on opposite sides in the ISIS War. Same time Jordan sends its Air Force in to pummel the Islamists, Israel under Bibi Netanyahu kills more of the Islamist's ground-war enemies. Then Boehner rewards this crap with a flood of nice...
