As regards nutrition Palestinians have the highest obesity rates in the world , We know extreme lack of food leads to obesity, don't we? Lancet UK most respected medical body research journal.....

Just because someone settled a case with you for the sole purpose of avoiding protracted legal proceedings or possible retaliation when you get into a position of power doesn’t mean what you’re accused of is untrue.

Well not only is he found civilly liable for rape in a civil court. He also lost the appeal.

And he admits he walks into teenage girls changing rooms in the pageants he owned.

This is why no one takes you guys seriously when you start talking about “rape gangs”. We know you don’t care at all. Only when it’s for the purpose of political agenda do you manage to pretend to care. And even then it’s not convincing.
He was not found guilty of rape. Make that judge repeat the same now. Then noone thought Trump would be sworn in ever.
I hope you don't die of starvation soon once Trump crashes the economy from today smiley.

Joe Biden has been signing executive orders not knowing what he is signing.
But but Trump administration will be the most corrupt.


Speaker Mile Johnson had a candid convo with Joe Biden 1 year ago.
The corruption perpetrated by Joe Biden and his handlers is unimaginable, inconcievable and unfathomable . Should never be allowed to happen again.

: During a one-on-one meeting, Speaker Johnson asked President Biden why he paused LNG exports to Europe, says Biden was completely unaware he had done so.

Johnson says Biden was completely unaware of an executive order he signed. The comments from Johnson came during an interview with @bariweiss

Johnson said after fighting for 9 weeks with Biden's staff, he was finally able to get a meeting with the president.

When he arrived, Johnson says he was "ambushed" by Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries.

Biden, who apparently didn't know what was going on, asked the others to leave so he could meet privately with Johnson.

"It occurred to me he was not lying to me. He genuinely did not know what he had signed. I walked outta that meeting with fear and loathing because I thought, 'We are in serious trouble.'"

He was mentally competent, it's his handlers who were just giving him papers to sign. Requires medical records disclosures.

If Isreal had decided to forget about the 93 hostages just like the way Nigerian Govt forget about hundreds of chibok girls and dachi student kidnap by hamas-style boko haram islamist terrorist in Nigeria, would you say Isreal had lost? Is it that one Israeli live is not the same as a Palestinian live?

Infrastructure destroyed, women and children killed and you think by kidnapping 100 hostages make you a winner?
That is the victory of Hamas. 39 hostages in exchange if 1900 terrorists. Biden administration largekt helped them terrorists.

https://www./monkey-story-karan-kothari

Linked In is removed by bot.

Once upon a time, a rich man from the city arrived in a village. He announced to the villagers that he would buy Monkeys for 100 each.

The villagers were very happy, after all there were hundreds of Monkeys in a nearby forest. They caught the Monkeys and got them to the rich man. He bought hundreds of Monkeys and paid 100 for every Monkey the villagers gave him. They began to make a living out of getting Monkeys from the forest and selling it to the rich man.

Soon, the forest began to run out of monkeys that were easy to catch.

Sensing this, the rich man offers 200 for every monkey. The villagers were ecstatic. They went back to the forest, set up traps and caught the monkeys and got them to the rich man.

A few days later, the rich man announced he would pay 300 per monkey. The villagers began climbing trees and risking their lives to catch monkeys and get them to the rich man – who bought them all.

There were no Monkeys left in the forest!

One day, the rich man announced he would like to buy more monkeys – this time for 800 each.

The villagers couldn’t believe this. They were desperately trying to get more monkeys..

Meanwhile, the rich man said he had to go back to the city on some business work and until he returns his manager would deal on his behalf.

Once he left, the villagers were unhappy. They were making quick and easy money from selling monkeys, but the forest no longer had monkeys.

This is when the manager of the rich man stepped in. He made an offer the villagers could not refuse. Pointing out to all the monkeys that the rich man had caged. He told the villagers he would sell the monkeys for 400 each.

“Sell them back to the rich man at 800 each when he comes back” the manager said.

The villagers were over the moon. Buy for 400 and sell for 800 in few days. They had just found the easiest way to double their money. The villagers collected all their savings and even borrowed money. There were long queues and within a few hours, almost all the monkeys were sold out.

Unfortunately, their happiness did not last long, as the manager went missing the next day and the rich man never came back.

Many villagers kept the monkeys with them, hoping the rich man would come back. But soon, they lost hope and had to let the monkeys back into the forest as feeding and taking care of the noisy monkeys became extremely difficult.

Biden brags about the Israel Hamas peace deal whole everyone knows Trump's win was the main driving force. Biden also demamds statehood of Palestine.

Six times the Palestinians rejected statehood.


One: At the recommendation of the Peel Commission, the British, who controlled Palestine at the time, agreed to create a two-state solution, offering the Palestinian Arabs 80 per cent of the disputed territory. The Palestinian Jews said yes, the Arabs said no.

Two: On Nov. 7, 1947, the United Nations voted to create two states. The Palestinian Jews (who changed their name to Israelis) said yes, the Palestinian Arabs said no.

Three: After the Six Day War In 1967, Israel wanted to return the captured lands to Egypt and Jordan or to the Palestinian Arabs. The Arab league met in Sudan and said: “No peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, no negotiations with Israel.” In other words, the Arabs said no.

Four: In 2000, then-Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak offered all of Gaza and 94 per cent of the West Bank with East Jerusalem as its capital to Yasser Arafat. Arafat said no.

Five: In 2008, the prime minister of Israel, Ehud Olmert, added additional land to the previous offer of 2000. Mahmoud Abbas said no. History shows that each time Israel has agreed to offering land for peace, the Palestinian Arabs have rejected the offers.

Six: The one time, in 2005, when Israel unilaterally left Gaza to the Palestinian Arabs. The terrorists took control and turned it into a base from which thousands of rockets have been fired into Israel up to, and including, the present day. Trading land for peace didn’t work.


These genocidal Palestinians can never be trusted.

Gen Milley should be recalled from retirement and prosecuted for treason.
Milley, according to a book titled "Peril," assured his counterpart, General Li Zuocheng of the People’s Liberation Army of China, in the final days of Trump's first term that the United States military would not strike the communist country. Perhaps most astonishing was a quote that shows Milley was willing to warn China if an attack was in the works.

“General Li, you and I have known each other for now five years. If we’re going to attack, I’m going to call you ahead of time,” he purportedly said. “It’s not going to be a surprise.”


General Milley was structurally incharge of security on Jan 6.

Mitchelle Obama I reiterate is a full blooded African woman. She gave birth through invivio to her two kids. Some say she is male out of jest , she is a full woman to me with a husband who would have sired some brats naturally with other women but he chose to side with her. Frankly any man who ejaculates to a petri dish and gets his two children borne of his DNA and hers is a real man. Kudos Barrack Hussein Obama for being that patient husband who never leave their wives high and dry in pursuit of siring kids naturally.

I still have my reservations about Obama politically and the moral high horse grounds he holds himself though. How did your Arab govt changeover work out Libya in a mess, Suriya millions dead, Iraq mess, Obama 4.0 failed 2024. He should fold up his balls and ride on the tailwind.

But Obama stood by his wife. He became the first African American president two times . He never helped Africa.

This article implies that the budget was cut .
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/california-wildfires-los-angeles-fire-chief-budget-cuts/

In a Dec. 4 memo, LAFD Fire Chief Kristin Crowley wrote to the Board of Fire Commissioners that the budget cuts "have adversely affected the Department's ability to maintain core operations."

Crowley said that a $7 million reduction in overtime hours "severely limited the Department's capacity to prepare for, train for, and respond to large-scale emergencies" and affected their capacity for brush clearance inspections and residential inspections.

The cuts, Crowley wrote in a memo from July 2024, resulted from eliminating 58 positions, adjusting sworn salary accounts, and removing one-time expenses. Some have pointed to the one-time expenses, such as the purchase of new breathing equipment for firefighters
The memo is in December just above a month ago.While that Blumenfield someone you quoted said budget was increased in November.

This matter is not closed. This might turn out to be another case where the real truth is in the opposite of what democrats say.
