Joe Biden Has Cordial Meeting With Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini

Pete Hegseth is a 20-year Army veteran with two combat tours, two Bronze Stars, and two Army Commendation Medals, but his nomination to be the secretary of defense has brought out the worst in the liberal media. NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck and I break down the media’s disgusting diminution of Hegseth’s career, and call out the liberal ladies of The View for their ignorance and divisiveness. I was fairly spicy during this episode because few things grind my gears more than elitist journalists – who couldn’t even be bothered to be war correspondents in their careers – putting down the distinguished service of a veteran. We kick off the show by discussing some of the known morale, recruitment, and retention problems the military has been having over the last few years and how Hegseth’s infantryman perspective could bring some solutions. We also call out folks like CNN’s Jim Acosta and Brian Stelter who suggest his only achievement in life has been being a Fox News host. The conversation pivots to the divisive liberal ladies of The View and how they disgustingly wrote off Hegseth’s service and basically ignoring all of it. Whoopi Goldberg claims he “clearly does not know anything about the military,” while Joy Behar took the aforementioned CNN route to disparagement. Meanwhile, Sunny Hostin did her usually ‘he’s a racist’ shtick. We wrap up by talking about the likes of Joy Reid, Hostin, and Goldberg were divisive forces in America as they call for Democrats not to attend holiday gatherings with Trump voters. I’ll conclude here the same way we finished the show, by asking everyone to keep Dennis Prager in your thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery from a fall.

President-elect Donald Trump might not be in the Oval Office yet, but he’s wasting no time getting ready to clean house at the Department of Justice. “This is a grand slam by President Trump,” Mike Davis, president of the Article III Project, tells Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” of Trump’s appointments so far. “I’ve worked with Susie Wiles as a volunteer for Trump’s campaign,” Davis says. “Susie is a phenomenal pick for White House chief of staff. She understands her job is not to control Trump, it’s her job to control everything else around Trump, so Trump can be Trump, and he has a functioning campaign operation and a functioning White House.” While it’s the common belief among leftists that Trump is “sexist,” his appointment of Wiles couldn’t prove them more wrong. “It’s very clear that President Trump respects Susie, and he does very well with women. Trump had one of the first, I think, the first female executive in the construction industry back in the '90s who worked for Trump for like 18 years,” Davis explains, adding, “This is the first female White House chief of staff.” Davis is also pleased with Stephen Miller, who he calls a “fantastic pick for White House deputy chief of staff.” “He’s been a loyalist to President Trump for a long time. He’s been the tip of the spear on immigration, he’s going to be fantastic in that role,” Davis says, adding that Tom Homan is also a great pick. “He’ll work hand in glove with Susie and Stephen to make sure we close our border and deport these illegal immigrants, starting with the violent criminals first and then moving on to the rest,” he adds. As for Davis himself, he plans to “strongly advocate for serious reforms at the Justice Department.” “The Justice Department has been politicized and weaponized against President Trump,” he tells Wheeler. “His top aides like Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro who got sent to prison, his supporters on January 6 who were politically persecuted.” “The Biden-Harris Justice Department has been weaponized to go after parents outraged by gender chaos in schools, in the resulting rapes in high school bathrooms, they’ve gone after Christians praying at abortion clinics, and including putting a 75-year-old Christian in prison for praying at an abortion clinic,” he continues. “There has to be accountability for what happened, and that accountability has to come at the Justice Department,” he adds.

Have you ever thought paying with your credit card was too complicated or inconvenient? If this sounds like you, you’ll be happy to know that a new solution to this modern problem is now being tested. Just raise your palm and accept your biometric overlords. According to a report from Reclaim the Net, Visa and Tencent have partnered to invent a new payment method recognition sytem. This method combines palm prints and what is reportedly called “vein recognition.” The report goes on to say: “This is touted as more reliable than facial recognition since that can reportedly be tampered with more easily.”Is your data worth an extra few seconds of your day? This new biometric technology is being rolled out and tested in Singapore, where participating businesses can “include palm scanners in their payment terminals, while this method is advertised for ... convenience since it does not require the use of physical devices.” As this explanation demonstrates, customers would only need to verify their identity and card credentials on the first purchase when they opt in to this program. Tencent and Visa’s original announcement for this plan was made on November 6, 2024, during the Singapore Fintech Festival. At the conference, Yang Wenhui, general manager at Tencent Financial Technology Asia Pacific, showcased the “innovation of Tencent Palm in both user experience and technology application, as well as its commitment to data security and privacy compliance.”Adeline Kim, Visa country manager for Singapore and Brunei, described the program's goals: “Our aim is to enhance the payment experience and ensure that our customers can enjoy seamless transactions with the highest level of security. Together with Tencent, we are excited to lead the way in transforming the future of payments.” Reclaim the Net mentions that this program is part of a larger policy vision in Singapore called Smart Nation. Singapore has been developing this initiative since 2014, yet it recently unveiled Smart Nation 2.0: “The Smart Nation 2.0 strategies will be continually iterated and adjusted as digital developments evolve. We will adapt our approaches over time in close consultation with citizens and businesses, responding to technological advancements and emerging challenges.”This innovative technology comes with its share of criticisms as well. As the report says, the tradeoff between the purported “convenience” of the palm recognition system comes at a steep price: “That may seem like a poor deal since clearly comprehensive biometric data is being surrendered in exchange for saving a few seconds by not having to whip out a card or a phone.”There also appear to be plans to expand this technology into other aspects of citizens’ lives: “Tencent looks forward to collaborating with various businesses to promote its palm recognition technology in applications such as payment, access control, and transportation.”The report also raises the issue of who handles the collected biometric data in this system: “Customers in Singapore may or may not be happy to learn that it’s the job of China’s Tencent (via the local subsidiary) [to handle the biometric data once it is collected]. Tencent is in charge of the palm recognition infrastructure.”This palm recognition technology produced by Tencent and Visa is just one example of new attempts at collecting biometric data. While it is in the early stages of development, Singapore's tendency toward further integration of technology into society should be a warning to us all around the world. The price of this convenience is very high, and it benefits corporations that do not have citizens’ best interests in mind. Is your data worth an extra few seconds of your day?

Arrested illegal aliens from a sophisticated Chilean theft ring were set free last week because the charges against them aren't bail eligible in New York state, WABC-TV reported.The station said six men entered Florique Florists on Jericho Turnpike in Woodbury on Long Island just after 3 a.m. Nov. 7, cut through the roof, and then cut through a wall connected to Elegant Jewelers, Burglary Squad Detectives said. 'We need a change in these laws. Give the judges back their discretion. Let us do our jobs.'The group left without taking any merchandise, but Nassau County Police told WABC they used radio jammers to hide the alarm system."How dangerous is that?" Nassau County Police Dept. Commissioner Patrick Ryder asked, according to WABC. "If someone is calling for an emergency, or another cop is called for an emergency and his radio doesn't work, because these thugs are inside trying to jam the radios so we don't get the alarm?"All of the illegal aliens were arrested the next day at a home in Huntington they were renting, WABC said, adding that Homeland Security flagged all of the men as potential threats.Police said Immigration and Customs Enforcement was notified, and while "one defendant has been remanded," the remaining five "have been released with no bail."Turns out authorities weren't able to detain the five remaining suspects because their crimes were not bail eligible, WABC reported.Police added that two of the suspects didn't report for their electronic monitors — and the three who did report cut off their electronic monitors. The station said they cut them off in New Jersey.All of the suspects are charged with burglary and criminal mischief, WABC said.New York bail laws at center of controversy once againAuthorities on Long Island are calling for a change to New York's bail laws in the wake of this incident, the station said.Neither Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman nor his law-enforcement partners minced words about the situation, WABC reported."It's a damn disgrace," Blakeman said.County District Attorney Ann Donnelly said she's "sick of it. We need a change in these laws. Give the judges back their discretion. Let us do our jobs."You can view a video report here about the incident.Like Blaze News?

“I don’t know if we know what’s exactly going to work really well yet, but some things are really promising,” Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced on the company’s latest earnings call. “I have high confidence that over the next several years, this will be one of the important trends and one of the important applications.” Yes, he’s talking about content churned out by computers. Yes, the feedback is already pretty bad. And as legacy media organizations — like establishment institutions across the board — continue to lose trust and loyalty, millions will default to AI content without even actively choosing against the dwindling supply of human journalists trying to keep them in line. “I think we’re going to add a whole new category of content which is AI-generated or AI-summarized content, or existing content pulled together by AI in some way,” he insisted. “And I think that that’s gonna be very exciting for Facebook and Instagram and maybe Threads, or other kinds of feed experiences over time.” Very exciting — but for whom? The kind of outlets likely to blame Zuck for Trump didn’t skip a beat. “The AI Slop Will Continue Until Morale Improves,” reported 404 Media. “Mark Zuckerberg Pledges to Fill Facebook With Even More AI Slop,” Futurism blared. One Bloomberg columnist went with “Mark Zuckerberg Wants to Feed You More AI Slop.” You get the picture. And if you’ve followed the disturbing trends of older Facebook users thinking the outlandish AI-made images they’re engaging with are real photographs, you might be inclined to agree. But as is so often the case in cyberspace, all is not as it seems. Start with Zuckerberg. The long-embattled tech titan may have spent most of the Biden years in the doghouse with conservatives bummed out by his willingness to drop big “Zuckerbucks” on the 2020 election. But Zuck found himself in survival mode after Democrats resolved to punish him for Facebook’s friendly treatment of Trump in the run-up to 2016. In the blink of an eye, the Frances Haugen “whistleblower” op was concocted and deployed, the platform all but iced political news content, Zuck hard-pivoted into the metaverse, and, yes, the Zuckerbucks began to flow. And behind the scenes, Zuck rebuilt and bided his time. Now, thanks to some canny PR, he’s rebranded as a libertarian and made the leap to the AI era. This, it’s apparent, is how Zuck reasons he’ll at last break free of the partisan net woven for him by a vindictive regime and its big-media collaborators. After all, predictable slop of a different kind flooded the social media zone under the state-sponsored outlets that took over Twitter before Elon came along. It seems like the only content fire hose powerful enough to outblast the censor-sanitized media apparatus is cranked out by computers, not human beings typing away as if they may as well be computers themselves. That seems to be Zuck’s wager, anyway. If millions still pine for the naive old days of social media when real friends hung out online, maybe the future of social media looks more like using AI content for reference and real life for socialization. At a time when people are starved for authorities they can trust, many will probably prefer AIs to human indoctrinators. And as legacy media organizations — like establishment institutions across the board — continue to lose trust and loyalty, millions will default to AI content without even actively choosing against the dwindling supply of human journalists trying to keep them in line. The probable downside is already plain enough — the same one Americans experienced for generations back when cable was king and the internet was something that squealed at you from a tabletop box plugged into your phone line. Four hundred channels and nothing on … Ultimately, it won’t be easy to trust AI content unless you trust the people behind the AI. Right now, on one side of the politics of social media, you’ve got the left selling themselves as a borg or blob, a collective consciousness of enlightened elites. On the other, you’ve got a handful of famous tech lords selling themselves as can-do visionaries who might not have all the answers but at least can get us out of the current rut. Those aren’t the choices you’d want when trying to select a source of spiritual wisdom, but as they stand at the close of 2024, it’s easy to see how the momentum of public sentiment could point away from the crew that’s ruled our headspace for the past four years — and toward the tech titans who aren’t trying to take down Trump.

Counter-Strike 2 has already given several incredible CSGO maps a fresh coat of paint, but there’s a fan-favorite that’s been surprisingly absent from the FPS game. Home to so many memories, players have been missing the abandoned railyard of Train.
