It really pains me as an Iowan to write this, but Joni Ernst has been beyond embarrassing as a Senator. When she first burst onto the scene promising to cut the fat in D.C., she seemed to have promise. But like so many before her, once she got there she changed into a completely different person, rarely representing the wishes of those she allegedly represents. Were these her true colors all along? Or again, like so many before her, has she been compromised or blackmailed in some way? Let me show you what I mean…. Here she is praising Zelensky and begging us to give him more money, give him anything he wants!  He needs it NOW, not yesterday, she says!  And then the kicker: “If you don’t do this, Americans will suffer!” Yes, she really said all of that, watch here: WATCH: Joni Ernst says “AMERICANS WILL SUFFER” unless we give Zelensky everything he wants No wonder she’s so against Pete Hegseth pic.twitter.com/EyeBFioAuU — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) December 5, 2024 Screw you too, Joni Ernst! That is sick! It should be an immediate disqualification from Congress if you threaten suffering to Americans if they don’t agree to fund a foreign country! Then we have her pushing trans in the military: Here is Joni Ernst praising trans in the military. She says she wants a fighting force. Maybe this is why she’s leading the charge against Hegseth?

Iowa….what happened? Joni Ernst AND Kim Reynolds both turned out to be rotten? Shame On Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds: “The State Owns Your Children!” Shame On Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds: “The State Owns Your Children!” Iowa's Governor Kim Reynolds used to be one of the most reliable, Republican Governors in the Union. And then, something happened.... I'm not saying there was a cause and effect here, but she endorsed Ron DeSantis, became anti-Trump, and she's never really been the same sense. The latest? An absolutely DISGUSTING new Bill passed into Law this year absolutely destroying parent's rights in Iowa. Allow me to explain.... I'll give you the super short summary first and then follow it up with all the details. Basically, Iowa has now passed a new law deeming a student to be "truant" if they miss more than 9 days a semester! Think about that for a second... Say you go on a family trip for one week, which happens a LOT! Maybe you don't want to pay Spring Break prices, maybe you can't afford Spring Break prices or Winter Break prices, so you take a family trip and take your 5th grader and 1st grader out of school for a week.  There's 5 days.  Then imagine that at various times from August through December they're home sick 4 days. Boom, there's your 9 days. You're in violation of the state! Both the student AND the parents! And the penalty? Criminal enforcement by the County Attorney! I'm not making any of this up, I'll give you the full details below. Missing 9 days is a 'Tier 1" offense and the penalties only go up from there. Oh, and did I mention how an "absence" is calculated? When a student is absent for 120 minutes per day, but less than 240 minutes per day, they will be considered absent for half a day. When a student is absent for 240 or more minutes per day, they will be considered absent for an entire day. Also, according to one FAQ, family funerals are NOT exempt -- you will rack up an "absent" day if you dare attend Grandpa's funeral: 8. Are family funerals an excused absence? Per Iowa Code and Iowa Department of Education guidance, attending funerals is not exempt. Our District will track these absences as required by the state and they will count toward chronic absenteeism. However, the absence will be excused by the school, and we will not impose any additional school-based consequences. It just get's worse and worse the more you look into it. Before I give you all the detailed information, allow me to comment on why this is such a massive red flag.... Because I can already hear someone in the comments saying: "But Noah, don't you WANT kids to be incentivized to attend school?  Isn't that a good thing?" Actually?  No, ever since schools have become nothing more that "indoctrination camps" stripping creativity and creative thinking out of kids, teaching them only to memorize and regurgitate random, unhelpful facts ("the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell!"), re-working math so that even parents can't follow the goofy way it's taught these days, and spending more time indoctrinating LGBT propaganda than actually teaching anything, no...I'm not overly excited about making sure my kids get maximum exposure to that crap. But let's just say for argument's sake you have a good school teaching good things. Ok great! But there's still one MAJOR FLAW with this legislation....parents are not parents of their children only from 3:30pm to 8:30am the next morning. Parents are parents of their children 100% of the time, and if that parent so chooses to send their child to a public school, that child is on LOAN at the full discretion of the parent, which can and must be able to be revoked at any time! This law literally tells you that you, the parent and legal guardian, are actually NOT the legal guardian of your child during school hours for 5 days a week!! Wanna know what the math works out to be on that?  That's over 20% of the week that you are not really in legal control of your children -- the STATE is!  Subtract out 8 hours a day for sleeping and it jumps to 31% of the time your children are awake, they are in the legal custody of the STATE! I'm sorry, but FUCK THAT!  (Sorry Franklin) Seriously though, I use that language very intentionally. We have become so pacified as a nation that we don't even think about stuff like this anymore! The State has quietly took control of your children, and they will punish you CRIMINALLY if you disobey, and we're just supposed to go along with it? HELL NO! Folks, sound the alarm, this is a RED ALERT situation! ??? Time to wake up America! Wake up parents! I saw this coming over the last 5 years.  I wonder if you noticed it too where you live? About 5 years ago, if you ever had to take you child out of school, you had to fill out a form and the last question on the form was: REASON FOR ABSENCE: __________. I'm sorry, say what now? I have to give you a reason why I'm reclaiming my legal guardianship of my child during school hours? How about my reason is FUCK YOU?  That's my reason! I'm the parent, that's my reason! I'm the parent at 10am on Tuesday morning just as much as I am at 6:30pm on Saturday night. If I want to take my child out of school and go home and watch the Price Is Right with them, I guarantee you that will make more of an impact in that child's life than another soulless day in public school, that's my reason! Parents, wake up! You don't owe the school (which is the STATE!) anything! This is completely twisted around (gee, who always twists the truth to be 180 degrees from what it should be?  Oh right, that would be Satan). This is ENTIRELY twisted 180 degrees wrong.... I don't have to justify to the STATE when and for how long I am going to be with my children.  The STATE needs to continually justify to ME why I should trust them to operate public schools! Until we all wake up from our slumber and start pushing back on this, they're just going to keep slowly boiling the frog alive, until that 31% jumps to 100%. "Oh don't be so dramatic Noah, that will never happen!" Really? You do see the next steps in this, right? As this law was passed, many statements were made by school districts all over Iowa like this: "Don't worry, we will work with you!  We understand life happens.  It will all be ok.  The State can't take your children SOLELY for truancy, there has to be some other violation of the law also occurring for that to happen.  So don't worry!" And you know what? I'm sure it will be....for a year or two. They won't ramp things up until all the backlash has died down and people forget about it. But the law will remain on the books. And then do you know what will gradually happen? Gradually, they'll start to use it. And it will go like this.... "Hello, Mr. Smith, this is District Attorney Johnson.  Say, I notice your child has been truant under our new law both this semester and last semester.  I know you took a family trip, and then had two family funerals, and I know cold and flu season was terrible this year, so you had 4 sick days, but look pal, I don't write the laws I just enforce them.  Oh, and we went ahead and took a look at your social media profiles, and I see here that you have been a big Trump supporter.  Gotta tell you, that's another big red flag.  Those people are violent and dangerous!  Haven't you ever heard of January 6th?  Oh boy, I also see here that you made a $50 donation to Donald Trump's campaign?  You do know he's a racist, right?  That is unacceptable.  Yeah, I'm looking at all the evidence here and I think what we have is a clear pattern of behaviour that has created an UNSAFE living environment for your 3rd grader.  We're just gonna swing by the house later on and pick that 3rd grader up and get him into some foster family protection so they can have a more stable environment.  It will only be temporary, just the next 6 months and we'll just see how it goes.  Oh, and I also see here that you're in criminal violation as the legal guardian of this child for truancy, so during those six months you'll also be in jail." I'm telling you folks, that is NOT an unlikely future if we don't get this under control right now. It's not hypothetical, either. It's actually happened...in California and at the hands of Kamala Harris no less! ??BREAKING: This Black woman who was arresting by Kamala Harris shared heartbreaking footage exposing how Kamala Harris's policy as California Attorney General to arrest parents for “truancy” destroyed their lives and the lives of many other single minority women as well.… pic.twitter.com/zNS9eLF4Rq — Dom Lucre | Breaker of Narratives (@dom_lucre) September 18, 2024 Iowa, is this really the model you want to follow? Really? Kim?  What the Hell happened to you? What in the world possessed you to sign this into law?  (wait, asked and answered) Local KTIV had more details on the new law: How many days of school has your student missed so far this school year? There is a new chronic absenteeism law in Iowa and it requires all school districts to identify students who have missed 10% of a grading period. “They are in a panic on how they’re going to manage it,” said Associate Superintendent of Sioux City Community School District, Angela Bemus. Chronic absenteeism is when a student misses a large percentage of school days. This new policy is not only strict on the student, but school districts say it is also strict for the family. There are new thresholds. For example at Sioux City Community Schools 10% equates to only being allowed to miss 9 days of school, 15% equates to 13 days, and 20% equates to 20 days per semester. There is no longer a distinction between excused and unexcused absences. Everything counts. As a courtesy, Sioux City Community Schools added an earlier notice at four days when a student is halfway through their allotted missed days trying to stop students from becoming chronically absent. Breaking down the new policy If a student misses 10% of school in a semester, the district is required to report it to the county attorney and families are notified. If a student reaches the 15% threshold, the district is required to create an action plan to prevent any further absences and meet with the student and family weekly. Sioux City Community Schools adds up missed blocks and periods throughout a school day which will be calculated in the percentage. Bemus explains when a student hits 20 days of missing school, “which is 20% attendance, 20% of missing school in a grading period, they’re considered truant by law, and then there will be a notice to the county attorney, and the county attorney will issue a compulsory attendance.” “Our office will review for charges and if approved for charges, meaning the parent violates the law, a warrant would be issued for the parent’s arrest. This process is no different than any other case sent to our office for review of charges. If approved, a warrant is issued for that person’s arrest,” said Woodbury County Attorney James Loomis. We asked Bemus what the leading cause for a student to miss school in this district “Sometimes it’s a lower level type of illness, like a stomach ache or a headache, But according to the new law, all absences, unless it is a college visit or it’s a student activity or they’re medically exempt, is considered unexcused, and that will go towards that compulsory attendance law,” explained Bemus. Concerns regarding the policy James Sturgeon is a concerned parent and says it’s a strict policy to follow. “I think it’s completely ridiculous. If your child is sick, your child is sick,” said Sturgeon. Sturgeon first heard of the policy via email after the school year had already started. The New Chronic Absenteeism Law went into effect at the start of the 2024-25 school year.... The New Chronic Absenteeism Law went into effect at the start of the 2024-25 school year. Students walking into school on the first day back in August are being held to a new standard per the Iowa Education Department.(KTIV) He is worried about the germs often spread at school to students and staff. Bemus explained there is no wiggle room when it comes to certain illnesses. “Unless you are medically exempt, which is very few and far between. We only have about two or three of those a year,” said Bemus. “There is a real high threshold according to the state of what ‘medical exemption’ means.” The state’s exemptions for the absenteeism policy There are six exemption rules within this policy: Completed requirements for graduation or obtained a high school equivalency diploma. Excused for sufficient reason by any court of record or judge. Attending religious services or receiving religious instructions. Unable to attend school due a legitimate medical reason(s). Individualized Education Program (IEP) that affects attendance. Sturgeon stated his worries about illnesses as that is a leading cause to many students being out of school. “There are so many students in these schools jammed together, they don’t have enough janitorial to do any cleaning. The teachers don’t have the time to do any cleaning, so you have all these kids in school, and it’s just a big sickness,” said Sturgeon. “I believe leave parenting to the parents. I’m sure the reason they did that is that there are students out there who are abusing the policy the absentee policy. you need to go after those students and punish those students. Don’t round up everybody in the same category.” The goal for Iowa school districts is to have 95% attendance rates. The Sergeant Bluff-Luton Community Schools district put out this Guidance and FAQ: The purpose of this notice is to inform you about a significant change in Iowa's education law that directly affects our students and families. The 2024 Iowa Legislature passed Senate File 2435, a new attendance law addressing chronic absenteeism. These changes define the tiers of chronic absenteeism and the district’s requirements for addressing these cases. It's crucial that all parents and guardians understand its implications. New Attendance Law Overview Important Definitions from Senate File 2435 To help you better understand the new law, here are key definitions as outlined in SF 2435: Chronic Absenteeism: The absence of a student from school for ten percent or more of the days that school is in session during a school year. This includes both excused and unexcused absences. Truancy: The failure of a child to attend school for at least 142 days per school year without reasonable excuse for the absence (142 = 80% of 178 school days). Grading Period: A period of time during a school year that is designated by a school district or accredited nonpublic school as a grading period. At Sergeant Bluff-Luton CSD, the grading periods are Semesters. New attendance Tiers: Tier 1 The student has been absent for 10% of instructional time. (9 days first semester, 9 days second semester) Chronic absenteeism initial threshold met. The district will mail a certified letter to parents. The district will send a letter to the county attorney. Tier 2 The student has been absent 15% of instructional time. (13.5 days first semester, 13.5 days second semester) Law requires students and parents/guardians attend a school engagement meeting with school officials at which an absenteeism plan is developed. Tier 3 The student has been absent 20% of instructional time. (18 days first semester, 18 days second semester) The student is considered truant. The county attorney determines any legal ramifications. How Absences are calculated When a student is absent for 120 minutes per day, but less than 240 minutes per day, they will be considered absent for half a day. When a student is absent for 240 or more minutes per day, they will be considered absent for an entire day. Impact of Attendance on Student Achievement Regular school attendance is crucial for student success. Research consistently shows that: Students who attend school regularly are more likely to read at grade level and meet academic standards. Consistent presence allows for continuous learning and skill-building. Chronic absenteeism in early grades can leave students unable to read proficiently by third grade, a key predictor of high school dropout rates. Students with high attendance rates are more likely to graduate from high school and have better chances of college and career success. Consistent attendance in K-12 is linked to better life outcomes overall. Even missing just two days a month can add up to a significant amount of lost instructional time over the school year. Our Commitment and Your Role Our goal is to support every student's success. Part of a student’s success is attendance at school. We need your partnership in this effort. Here's how you can help: Ensure your child attends school every day unless they are truly sick. Schedule appointments and travel during non-school hours when possible. Talk to your child about the importance of school attendance. Reach out to us if you're facing difficulties getting your child to school. We're here to help! Thank you for your attention to this important matter. By working together, we can ensure that every student has the opportunity to succeed and thrive in their education. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact your child's school or the district office.

Wake up America! Wake up Parents! Before it's too late.... I don't care what unjust laws are passed, never forget this: YOU are in charge of your kids, not the State.  God placed YOU, the parent, sovereignly in charge of raising your children.  And until you do something to violate that role, it is your duty and privilege to be in charge of your children 100% of the time, to raise them and guide them and grow them into healthy adults, not the State. Never forget that. It's time to fight back (peacefully and patriotically, of course).

Well, this was certainly not expected! Jeff Bezos says he’s very happy and optimistic about President Trump winning. Or perhaps it’s not surprising at all, and it’s just the latest example of a Far-Left Big Tech Billionaire trying to cozy up to President Trump after smearing him nonstop for the last 10 years. You can decide in your own mind what you think is most likely, but as Jeff Bezos says himself in this latest interview, he likes to take people at their word and not be cynical, so I guess we’ll do the same here. By his own words, Jeff Bezos is excited about a second Trump administration. Wow! Here is a partial transcript: Jeff Bezos: But if we’re talking about Trump, I think it’s very interesting. I’m actually very optimistic this time around that we’re going to see… I’m very hopeful about this, his… He seems to have a lot of energy around reducing regulation. And my point of view, if I can help him do that, I’m going to help him, because we do have too much regulation in this country. This country is so set up to grow. By the way, all of our problems, all of our economic problems, if you look at the deficit, the debt, the national debt, and how gigantic it is as a portion of GDP, these are real problems, and they’re real long-term problems. And the way you get out of them is by outgrowing them. You’re going to solve the problem of the national debt by making it a smaller percentage of GDP, not by shrinking the national debt, but by growing the GDP. You have to grow the denominator. And that means you have to grow GDP at 3, 4, or 5% a year and let the national debt grow slower than that. If you can do that, this is a very manageable problem. So we need a growth orientation in this country. This is the most important thing, a growth mindset. And we are the luckiest country in the world. We have all these natural resources, including energy independence. We have the best risk capital system in the world, by far. So people get confused about why does the United States have so much venture success, so much entrepreneurial success? Why are the big tech companies here and not somewhere else? What’s really going on with all this dynamism in this country compared to what we see elsewhere in the world? And there are a bunch of reasons for that. But the biggest one, eight of 10 points there, is that we have have better risk capital. It’s not the banking system. We have a good banking system, but so does Europe. What’s different here is that you can raise $50 million of seed capital to do something that only has a 10% chance of working. That’s crazy. But the people who are giving you that seed capital know that their expected value is still positive in many cases. Or they’re at least gambling that that’s true. That risk capital system that we have in this country is turning out to be very hard for other countries to duplicate. So we have that. We speak English, and English is turning into the lingua franca of the whole world. It’s a… There’s so many advantages here, but we are burdened by excessive permitting and regulation. You can’t build a bridge. All these things, you know what they are. We see these examples all the time. We need to be able to build solar fields and everything else. But you’re optimistic about this president. The reason I ask is because- Jeff Bezos: I’m very optimistic that President Trump is serious about this regulatory agenda, and I think he has a good chance of succeeding. What about the idea that he thinks that the press is the enemy? Well, I’m going to try to talk him out of that idea. I don’t think the press is the enemy. And I don’t think… The press is not the enemy. I hope you’re right. I hope I’m right, too. Let’s go persuade him of this. No, let’s do it. But you and I should go.

GeekWire had more details on the sale -- noting this latest $3 billion comes on the heels of $13 billion of prior sales in 2024 alone: Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is selling more than $3 billion worth of Amazon shares, according to a new regulatory filing revealed Friday, in his latest stock sale this year. Bezos had already sold more than $13 billion worth of Amazon stock in 2024. The latest sale of more than 16 million shares came as Amazon’s stock once again nears $200 per share. It surpassed $200 in July, when Bezos sold a separate tranche of shares — that was the stock’s highest price since Amazon’s 1997 NASDAQ listing. Amazon beat estimates for its third quarter earnings on Thursday. Shares were up 7% in trading Friday. Amazon stock is up more than 40% in the past 12 months. Bezos is No. 2 on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index with a net worth of $222 billion, up $42.8 billion year-over-year on the strength of Amazon’s stock. Bezos has used Amazon stock sales over the years to fund projects and initiatives including his Blue Origin space venture. He also launched a $2 billion Bezos Day One Fund in 2018 that focuses on homeless families and preschool education. Bezos controlled about 10.8% of Amazon’s outstanding stock, as of a February proxy statement. Amazon’s stock over the past 12 months. (Google Finance chart) He remains chairman of Amazon, though his focus has shifted to Blue Origin. Bezos made headlines last week for his decision to end The Washington Post’s tradition of endorsing candidates for president and reportedly spike an endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris. Bezos, who owns the newspaper, was under intense backlash following the announcement, which came just 11 days before the election between Harris and former President Donald Trump. I found this interesting, here was a breakdown of his wealth in 2020: Jeff Bezos’ net worth summary: Amazon: $160.9 billionBlue Origin: $7.2 billionCash, other assets: $4.5 billionWashington Post: $250 million Total: $172 billion (Source: Bloomberg) pic.twitter.com/553IBXTPrw — Jon Erlichman (@JonErlichman) July 2, 2020 He's not alone....

Cash Hoard PERFECTLY PREDICTS Stock Market Crash? This is really interesting.... We all know the "Oracle of Omaha" is a rare unicorn in the investing world. Perhaps originally a man who outsmarted Wall Street, he is also famous (or infamous) for getting sweetheart deals during the 2008 Stock Market Crash. Remember that? He coughed up a few billion to bail out some "too big to fail banks" and in return basically received a guarantee of his "investment" from the Federal Government. If you or I had done that, they might just call it insider trading, but for Uncle Warren it was deemed "patriotic". But that's not the main focus of this article. The main focus is something I'm now calling the "Warren Buffett Indicator". This short video below explains it in video format, but basically as Warren Buffett's cash hoard grows, it almost always seems to top out right before a huge stock market crash hits.... And guess who's there to scoop up all the great assets for pennies on the dollar? Uncle Warren. Look, I'm not suggesting he's doing anything wrong, not at all. Perhaps he's just really, really smart and really, really patient and disciplined. More power to him. But the indicator appears to be dead on.

Look at this: When people keep telling you the next crash is going to be much worse than the 2008 crash (which for most of us was by far the biggest of our lifetimes), this is what they mean... Look how his cash hoard dwarfs 2008. The size and scope of what is coming is going to dwarf anything you've seen before. It has to, the amount of money printed since then is astronomical. It's what Bo Polny told my on my show earlier this week.... Look at this chart and the chart above and tell me if they don't look extremely similar: It's all connected to 1971 when they removed us from the Gold Standard..... And the years that followed when they printed magic money to infinity and the money machine went BRRRRRRRRR on overdrive! You know how growing up your parents would say money doesn't grow on trees? To these people it does! It grows on printers, they just turn on the printer and out spits new money.....as much as they want! Now it's just extra zeroes in a computer program, but it used to be actual printing of greenbacks. Same difference. Speaking of, have you seen this? Do you know what happens if we suddenly shocked the world and went BACK to a Gold Standard? This: “Gold Revaluation” Incoming? Price Could Be $10,000-60,000 Per Ounce! Make sure you read that.

But what about Gold and Silver? If you want Gold and Silver, I have you covered there too. Keep reading for the hookup...including for a way to get GOLD without paying anything out of pocket!  Yes, really! But first, here's the most important part you have to understand -- make sure you get PHYSICAL gold and silver. Not paper traded garbage on the stock exchanges that isn't backed by anything. Don't touch that stuff. I have two special hook-ups for you. Both involve PHYSICAL gold and silver. Because if you do NOTHING else, make sure you own "physical" gold and silver, not paper contracts. The paper contracts (like stock ticker SLV and GLD) could very well go POOF one day and disappear or go to zero, because they're not actually backed by the gold and silver they claim to represent. It's a massive game of musical chairs out there and when the music stops (and I think it will stop soon...) people who only own paper might find themselves owning something not worth the paper it's literally written on. Now...WHERE do you get physical gold and silver and how do you know it's real and safe? And that you're getting the best price? Oh, and how about personal one-on-one real customer service? You know, like you were some Big Wig millionaire at Goldman Sachs who could just call their personal banker and get help? That's what I'm about to tell you.   I have two killer connections for you... The first is for purchasing gold and silver bullion. That means bulk bars. That's the cheapest and most economical way to do it, to stretch your dollar into as much gold and silver as possible. The website is called WLT Precious Metals and when you see my logo in the top left-hand corner, you'll know you're in the right place. You'll get a personal phone call with Ira Bershatsky (or someone on his team) and they will work with you free of charge for as long as needed to answer any questions you have and get you taken care of. How about that! You don't see that much anymore, but Ira and his team pride themselves on good old-fashioned real customers service: No sales pitch, just real, actual help. And the best prices you will find. Here's the only disclaimer I will give you: because they do pride themselves on dedicated service, it might take a few days before you get a phone call back.  Just be patient. Good things come to those who wait! You can contact Ira and WLT Precious Metals here. Ok, that was #1. Now I want to tell you about option #2. An equally great company, I am so happy to be working with these guys. This next company is called Genesis Gold and this is for people who want to purchase real physical gold or silver in their IRAs (Investment Retirement Accounts). You know what the beauty of that is? TAX FREE baby! I'm not a tax advisor, but that's a general oversimplification. Never pay more taxes than you are legally required to pay. And that's why I love getting gold and silver in my IRA (and why I hold a large chunk in an IRA myself!). There's so much to love about Genesis Gold, starting with the fact they are proudly and un-ashamedly Christina! They call it "Faith-Driven Stewardship" and they put it right on the homepage of their website along with a quote from Ezekiel: Wealth Preservation With Gold & Silver – The Genesis Gold IRA By your wisdom and your understanding you have made wealth for yourself, and have gathered Gold and Silver into your treasuries – EZEKIEL 28:4 Genesis Gold Group believes the Bible gives clues on how man-made currencies (paper money) represent instability, and a lack of virtue and encourages living wastefully in excess. Conflicts have beleaguered us since the dawn of civilization, and they can all be encapsulated into one battle. The battle is between currency, man-made paper, and gold and silver — the two precious metals found in our Earth’s crust, sent to us by our Lord to use as money. Man-made currency always leads nations down the path to increased war, greed, and ultimate collapse. History has shown that abandoning gold and silver has always been a bad idea. Gold and Silver enforce discipline, nurture self-constraint, self-reliance, and balance, and lead to confidence, a restrained government, and a more stable foreign policy. Genesis Gold Group believes in empowering faith-driven stewardship with Gold & Silver are an integral part of a balanced portfolio. Protecting your finances with precious metals has never been more crucial during these trying times. With a combined 50-plus years in the precious metals industry, let your Genesis gold and silver experts guide you through the simplicity of asset protection and growth with our Genesis Gold IRA. Sincerely, Genesis Gold Group Empowering Faith-Driven Stewardship Oh....and they're VERY good at what they do. You also get physical gold and silver with Genesis, believe it or not!  The gold and silver is purchased for you (in whatever combination of coins and bars you prefer, a picture taken and sent to you, and then stored safely in a vault for you! I love what these guys are doing. Here's more on why gold and silver in your IRA are so powerful: You can contact Genesis Gold here. They are also very backed up with record demand, so you may have to wait a bit, but someone WILL get in touch with you for personal customer service and assistance! Tell 'em Noah sent ya! Oh, and did you know Genesis is recommended by SUPERMAN himself? It's true. Superman himself, Clark Kent -- Dean Cain -- came on my show a few weeks ago and we broke it all down: Watch here: Stay safe! Make sure you can weather the storm when it hits! Because the storm always hits eventually, doesn't it? As for me and my house, we will be ready. ?

Federal authorities have arrested a leftist Democratic city councilwoman in Boston after being accused of defrauding the city and giving kickbacks to a family member on her staff.  Tania Fernandes Anderson, who immigrated to the U.S. illegally from Cape Verde, was charged by the Justice Department with five counts of wire fraud and one count of stealing federal funds, including a charge for providing a $13,000 bonus to an unnamed relative she employed at city hall. The two allegedly shared the money. “The charges stem from an alleged kickback scheme she orchestrated to obtain several thousand dollars in taxpayer money in exchange for bribes paid,” said U.S. Attorney Joshua Levy on Friday.  The indictment alleged that at the time of the illegal activity, Fernandes Anderson was “facing personal financial difficulty,” including missing rent and car payments and a civil penalty from her previous ethics violation, in which she was fined for hiring her sister and son. Prosecutors say that Fernandes Anderson hatched a scheme to hire a family member and pay them a $13,000 bonus. An email included in the indictment shows her falsely claiming to a Boston official that the staffer was not related to her. Investigators said Fernandes Anderson took $7,000 in cash during a drop in a city hall bathroom. “On or about June 9, 2023, at approximately 4:11 p.m., Staff Member A texted Fernandes Anderson, ‘Bathroom’ to let Fernandes Anderson know that Staff Member A was waiting in the bathroom to hand the $7,000 cash to Fernandes Anderson,” the indictment said. “Within seconds, Fernandes Anderson texted Staff Member A, ‘Ready’ to confirm that Fernandes Anderson was ready to accept the $7,000 cash kickback from Staff Member A.” “When they met in that bathroom, Ms. Fernandes Anderson put $7,000 in her pocket,” Levy said. “All of that money was funded by the taxpayers of Boston.” The indictment also accused Fernandes Anderson of embezzling money from a federal grant program meant for the city of Boston.  On Wednesday, after news broke that she may have been under investigation, Fernandes Anderson said she couldn’t comment on the allegations.  “To my people, District 7 constituents: You know that I am always transparent with you and always available. My job is to show up and fight for you, and I will continue to do just that–the people’s work,” the city councilor said. “Unfortunately, I am not able to comment on this matter at this time. As soon as I can, I will be sure to share more with you.” CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE Fernandes Anderson, who was elected in 2021, has become known for her racially charged rhetoric and calls for “a revolution” to combat “systemic racism.”  “I can’t even call you cowards because desperation deserves mercy. Your votes here sometimes are racist … I am here to represent every black woman and man in the community … What the f*** do I have to do in this f***ing council to get respect as a black woman,” Fernandes Anderson said to fellow council members during a meeting in August 2023. She was set to appear before a federal judge Friday afternoon.

The Revolutionary Left is creeping into the mainstream. The shooting of Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare, has unleashed a wave of evil from members of the Left. Thompson wasn’t a criminal. He wasn’t even an advocate of death the way abortionists or euthanasia advocates are. (And murder of an abortionist or euthanasia advocate would be unjustifiable morally in a democratic system.) His great sin is that he was the head of a company that exists within a mixed private-public healthcare framework, and that he did his job. But for the Left, if you hate the system, you are morally justified in murdering anyone who acts within the system. That means that if, like one Bernie Sanders follower, you believe that private healthcare “kills Americans,” you can murder Congressmen. It means that if you don’t like that health insurers often deny coverage for certain pre-existing conditions or non-covered doctors or medication, you can murder the CEO of a health insurance company. This is revolutionary leftist evil. It’s evil for a couple reasons. First, violence is not justified in a democracy, where your say is part of the process. Revolution to overthrow tyranny is justified — but the tyranny must be real, and the violence must be the last resort. Neither is true in this case. If you do perceive America to be a tyranny and violence to be the proper response, that is a call for unending violence until the system itself is changed. It’s a call for revolution. Second, violence against members of private industry isn’t even a protest of public policy. It’s a protest against the very system of free markets. Thompson was not responsible for America’s healthcare system any more than the head of CVS is responsible for America’s tariff system. Directing hatred against Thompson is not about shaping public policy. It’s about trying to threaten anyone who engages in free markets at all. This person could have just as easily shot a doctor who decided not to perform a surgery, or a bank worker who denied a loan application. WATCH: The Ben Shapiro Show This was the philosophy of the Red Army Faction in Germany in the 1970s, also known as the Baader-Meinhof Gang. They weren’t seeking a better world. They were seeking to tear down the world of capitalism on behalf of Marxist evil. They routinely quoted Herbert Marcuse and Antonio Gramsci; they called for revolution. Ulrike Meinhof, a Left-wing radical journalist, led the way, famously stating, “Protest is when I say this does not please me. Resistance is when I ensure what does not please me occurs no more.” That philosophy led the Baader-Meinhof Gang to engage in routine assassination of everyone from industrialists like Hanns Martin Schleyer to Dresdner Bank head Jurgen Ponto to American servicemen in Germany. These people can also become tools of enemy regimes, as Baader-Meinhof was. Baader-Meinhof worked with the Stasi and other Soviet agents to foment chaos, and coordinated with Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and Palestine Liberation Organization. The origins of Baader-Meinhof came from the 1968 student protests in Germany. They were Marxist in orientation, influenced by radical race riots in the United States, and allied with radicals all over the globe; Meinhof wrote an essay defending the Munich Massacre of Israeli Olympians by Palestinian terrorists. Stefan Aust, who literally wrote the book on the Baader-Meinhof Gang, pointed out: The Baader–Meinhof Gang drew a measure of support that violent leftists in the United States, like the Weather Underground, never enjoyed. A poll at the time showed that a quarter of West Germans under forty felt sympathy for the gang and one-tenth said they would hide a gang member from the police. Prominent intellectuals spoke up for the gang’s righteousness [as] Germany even into the 1970s was still a guilt-ridden society. When the gang started robbing banks, newscasts compared its members to Bonnie and Clyde. (Andreas) Baader, a charismatic action man indulged in the imagery, telling people that his favourite movies were Bonnie and Clyde, which had recently come out, and The Battle of Algiers. The pop poster of Che Guevara hung on his wall, [while] he paid a designer to make a Red Army Faction logo, a drawing of a machine gun against a red star. What do we make of the journalists and academics who proclaim soft support for the murder of Brian Thompson? That we are on the verge of something terrible. After all, this follows hard on the Black Lives Matters riots, which were indulged and even celebrated by many on the Left; the Hamas takeover of college campuses, again indulged and celebrated by Left-wing elite; and now, the not-so-quiet applause for the assassination of a private healthcare CEO. The toxic brew of radicalism and violence that characterized the 1970s in Germany and the United States is bubbling again. And why not? Many of those who engaged in precisely that violence are now well-respected American academics: Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn found high positions in academia after spending years planting bombs with the Weather Underground. CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE Certainly a desperate Left, spurred to action by constant talk of the “fascistic” takeover of Donald Trump, can be counted on to increase their support for violence. Two assassination attempts against Trump in the last six months are merely an indicator of just how deeply this rot is spreading. This must be stopped. It can only be stopped by a widespread rejection on all sides of the aisle for this type of violence. The shooter in this case should be arrested and given the death penalty. Seedbeds for such Marxist-Leninist violence on college campuses should be defunded. Those like Taylor Lorenz should be rejected from polite society. The Brian Thompson shooting is a bleeding edge indicator of where the country could be going. All it takes is someone with organizational capacity on the Left to launch America into a new era of domestic terrorism, with the tacit “moral” support of much of the journalistic establishment.

The man who shot and critically wounded two kindergartners at a Christian school in Oroville, California, on Wednesday wrote that he was seeking out “child executions” in response to “America’s involvement in Genocide and Oppression of Palestinians,” according to authorities. The shooter, who will not be named per Daily Wire policy, was identified as a 56-year-old man with a history of mental health issues and a lengthy criminal record. Action News Now reported that the Butte County, California, Sheriff’s Office obtained the shooter’s writings, which gave a motive for his attack on the Christian school. The shooter’s writings read, “Countermeasure involving child executions has now been imposed at the Seventh-Day Adventist school in California, United States by the International Alliance. Lieutenant Glenn Litton of the Alliance, carried out countermeasure in necessitated response to America’s involvement in Genocide and Oppression of Palestinians along with attack towards Yemen.” Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea said authorities found no evidence of the “International Alliance” referenced by the shooter, adding that the shooter had a history of mental health issues. As a child, the shooter attended an Adventist school in the nearby town of Paradise. District Attorney Mike Ramsey said it’s possible that the shooter would have been charged with a hate crime if he had survived. The shooter met with the principal at Feather River Adventist School in the early afternoon on Wednesday before opening fire and wounding two young boys before turning the gun on himself. The young victims were identified as 6-year-old Roman Mendez and 5-year-old Elias Wolford. Mendez was shot twice, resulting in internal injuries, and Wolford was shot once in the stomach, also resulting in internal injuries. Both boys remain in critical condition. CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE The shooter was a homeless man who moved around the Chico and Sacramento areas, CBS News reported. The 56-year-old white male was convicted of multiple crimes in the 1990s and early 2000s, including theft, fraud, and forgery. According to Sheriff Honea, the shooter also had a juvenile record. Just last month, the shooter was arrested in South San Francisco after he was suspected of stealing a U-Haul truck. Law enforcement officers found him in the stolen truck, and he was transported to the San Bernadino County Jail. He pled not guilty and was released from jail on November 21. After he was released, the shooter stayed at various motels in the Chico area, which is about 30 miles north of Feather River Adventist School. Days before the shooting, the 56-year-old homeless man called the Christian school to set up an appointment where he could discuss enrolling his grandson, according to Honea. After meeting with the principal on Wednesday, the shooter walked toward the exit, but then turned and walked back toward the playground as students were coming back into the building after a break. Honea said surveillance footage showed the shooter reach for his waistband, where Honea said he was holding a handgun. The shooter then began firing the gun and wounded two boys, ages 5 and 6. The shooter’s first prison sentence in 1991 came after he was charged with cultivating marijuana and petty theft, according to CBS News. A little over a decade later, he stole the identities of multiple Butte County residents and charged credit cards thousands of dollars for rent, food, and entertainment, District Attorney Mike Ramsey said. After being arrested in 2002, police searched the shooter’s home and computer and found that he had searched for firearms and explosives, leading investigators to believe he was planning a mass incident with explosives, according to Ramsey.
