LOL: Biden Honored Iraqi Woman Of Courage Designated A Terrorist

By William Teach August 30, 2026 – 7:00 am

Doesn’t really highlight how insane the Biden administration was?

From the article

Four years ago, Taif Sami Mohammed was being celebrated by the United States as one of the world’s most courageous women. Secretary of State Antony Blinken praised the senior Iraqi official as the country’s “Iron Woman,” crediting her with stopping bribes, uncovering schemes that enriched corrupt officials and fighting corruption despite threats against her.

Today, Mohammed is believed to be outside Iraq on the U.S. terrorist watchlist and can no longer enter the United States.

A State Department official told Fox News Digital the department revoked Mohammed’s visa this week, marking a dramatic reversal for an official who received one of the Biden administration’s highest-profile awards for women in 2022.

“While the Biden State Department shamefully celebrated and awarded foreigners who threaten our nation, the Trump State Department revokes their visas and ensures these individuals are removed from our country,” Assistant Secretary of State for Global Public Affairs Dylan Johnson told Fox News Digital.

What’s her problem?

Republican lawmakers previously accused her of helping facilitate terrorist financing through Iraq’s financial system and urged the Trump administration to take action against her. Reps. Joe Wilson, R-S.C., and Greg Steube, R-Fla., called Mohammed a “key enabler of terrorist funding in Iraq” and pushed the administration to impose sanctions.

Those allegations stand in stark contrast to how the Biden administration described Mohammed when it selected her for the State Department’s International Women of Courage Award in 2022.

And while Biden said she stopped corruption, the Iraqi government wants her for being corrupt. And jihad watchers say she was involved in funding Iranian backed terrorist groups. Maybe Joe should have given her some ice cream?

Bummer: Democrats Aren’t Talking About Global Sizzling

By William Teach August 29, 2026 – 4:32 pm

It’s so horrible!

The Earth is sizzling, but climate isn’t a hot topic for Democrats in this year’s campaigns

Climate change has been the backdrop to Charles Hughes’ entire life, from kindergarten lessons about disappearing habitats to wildfire smoke billowing through the air he breathed while growing up in Colorado. But now that he’s a college student in Massachusetts, he said global warming is rarely a top issue.

“Honestly, it doesn’t come up as much,” said Hughes, who chairs the state’s chapter of the College Democrats.

What a difference six years makes.

It’s rarely a top issue in most polls, not when matched against real world issues

During President Donald Trump’s first term and especially during the Democratic primaries to determine who would run against him in 2020, Democrats spoke constantly about climate change. They used it to rally young voters such as Hughes, fueling protests and sweeping demands to remake the economy with proposals like the Green New Deal.

But there has been a national shift in the conversation that is sharp enough for some researchers to coin the term “climate hushing” to describe it. The Searchlight Institute, a Democratic think tank, urged the party to stop mentioning climate change because it is not a priority for voters. The Sunrise Movement, a left-wing group that pushed global warming as a top issue for young people, switched its mission last fall to a broader mandate of fighting the Republican president.

See? Trump Derangement Syndrome is more important to them than ‘climate change’.

The shift is encapsulated by the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate in Massachusetts on Tuesday as the incumbent, Ed Markey, 80, tries to fend off a challenge from U.S. Rep. Seth Moulton, 47. Although Markey still talks about sponsoring the Green New Deal, his campaign is more focused on other issues to burnish his left-wing bona fides and prove to voters that he is not too old for the job.

It is the latest example of how climate change has been eclipsed by issues such as affordability, U.S. support for Israel and, above all, how to confront Trump.

Also, all the complete insanity being driven by the Theater Kids running as DSA members.

The Sunrise Movement, founded in 2017 to mobilize young voters over climate issues, announced in October that it was shifting to a broader fight against “fascism.” The group’s executive director, Aru Shiney-Ajay, said that was a prescient move because of reports that federal agents infiltrated protest meetings during Trump’s immigration raids in Minneapolis.

“We just live in a significantly more authoritarian country. Because of that, a lot of the Democratic primaries are about more existential questions,” Shiney-Ajay, whose network generally backs left-wing Democrats, said in an interview. “It has felt less like people care less about climate and more like people are increasingly freaked out about other issues.”

It’s so Fascist and authoritarian that they are….able to do all this protesting and stuff. But, yeah, the article mentions if the Dems will the House and/or Senate they’ll get back to beating the bandwagon, because, really, the climate scam is all about government dominance.

NYC’s Islamist Mayor To Attend 9/11 Ceremony

By William Teach August 29, 2026 – 10:30 am

Of course, really, Mamdani is in a no win situation. He’d be lambasted for not participating, lambasted for not showing up

Mayor Mamdani expected to attend 9/11 ceremonies for 25th anniversary, Trump will not

Mayor Zohran Mamdani is expected to attend the September 11th ceremonies, despite calls from some critics.

While the city has been preparing for a presidential visit on the 25th anniversary of the terror attacks, as of now, President Trump is not expected to attend.

Instead, the administration will be represented by Vice President JD Vance.

Trump is expected to commemorate the day at the Pentagon in Washington D.C., and is expected to deliver remarks.

OK, they managed to make it All About Trump. Will anyone be going to Shanksville, Pa, where Flight 93 crashed?

‘Let us have our peace’: Fearing disruption at Ground Zero, 9/11 families ask Mamdani to stay away

…

Giovanni Galante, whose wife Grace Catherine was among those killed by al-Qaeda terrorists on September 11, 2001, told the Post that Mamdani’s intention to attend the ceremony was “a slap in the face… Not because he is Muslim – because of who he supports. He represents values that are not ours.”

Florida real estate agent Galante was responsible for launching a petition last month, alongside other family members of those murdered on 9/11, calling for Mamdani to be excluded from the 25th-year memorial events on account of his association with extremism and refusal to condemn antisemitism.

According to the petition, concerns have been raised about Mamdani’s public positions, including a perceived reluctance to “clearly and unequivocally condemn phrases such as ‘globalize the intifada,’ which many interpret as endorsing or normalizing violence.”

Further, the mayor’s “associations with individuals whose public statements or records are viewed by family members as dismissive of American institutions or insufficiently critical of extremist ideologies,” the petition read.

Mamdani essentially takes the side of Hamas. If you do that you are on the side of Islamic terrorists. But, again, damned if you do damned if you don’t. I really wouldn’t be surprised if some of his hard left and Israel/Jew hating Comrades showed up to “protest” and cause problems on 9/11, though.

Hopefully a bunch of other big wigs in the Democrat party who are on Hamas’ side stay away. Will hard left nutters like AOC be at the memorial?

9/11 victim identified weeks before 25th anniversary of attacks

It has been almost 25 years since the Sept. 11 attacks on America rocked the country, but scientists are still trying to give closure to those families who lost loved ones.

Weeks before the quarter-century anniversary, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and the New York City Medical Examiner’s Office announced that another person was recently identified, The New York Times reported.

It was the first identification in nearly 12 months.

The victim was an adult woman whose family did not want her name released. She is the 1,654th identification made since 2001.

While that seems to be a large amount, the job is not nearly done, as about 40% of victims of the 9/11 attacks have not been identified by name.

That seems wild to me that 25 years later the bodies are not all identified.

College Football Has Started, So, We Need To Talk About ‘Climate Change’

By William Teach August 29, 2026 – 7:15 am

You know how it goes at this point: something is happening so the doomsday cult must interject itself like a nosy Karen

New Realities Of College Football Have Climate Change Lessons Too

It’s the most wonderful time of the year for people like me. It’s the start of the college football season. My beloved Florida State Seminoles take the field this weekend, and my equally beloved Georgia Bulldogs play next week. I am a three-time FSU alumnus, and a long-time professor at UGA. I often have converging thoughts in my mind. This morning is one of those moments. The world continues to experience extreme heat domes, flooding, tropical cyclones, drought and wildfires. The tragic events at the China – Nepal border, a place warming extremely fast, are fresh on my mind. While coming out of slumber this morning, an analogy hit me. The changing landscape of college football is also an analogy for climate change realities.

It’s not the perfect analogy but go with me. If you follow college football, you know that it has changed. Fan bases, university leaders, players and families are adjusting to a “new normal” that includes NIL, transfer portals, and forms of player compensation. At the Orange Bowl a few years ago, I sat next to a woman at the Florida State – Georgia game. She lamented the current landscape and romanticized the college football days of the past. (big snip through several paragraphs talking about how things in football have changed)

We now experience a “new normal” climate system too. The analogy is rooted in normalcy, expectations, and natural cycles of events. People understand that weather and climate have natural cycles. It rains. Winter comes and goes. Ice Ages happen. El Niño, like the strong one we are in right now, appears every two to seven years. Hurricanes are features of late summer months. By the way, Tropical Storm Dolly is headed towards the Leeward Islands right now but is expected to eventually weaken as it nears Puerto Rico.

Even with these natural aspects, human activities related to carbon emissions, land surface changes, air pollution and urbanization are rapidly, relatively speaking, changing the climate. Studies continue to point to the signatures of climate change in downpours, heatwaves, tropical cyclone intensity, drought, wildfires, and reduced extreme cold events. A 2026 report by the National Academies provides the latest assessment of extreme weather linkages to climate change.

Liberals Are Suddenly Fine With One Person Being Detained By ICE

By William Teach August 29, 2026 – 7:00 am

Democrats are upset with illegals who are murderers, predators, thieves, arsonists, and more

They’re not complaining about this one, though

Far-right British provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos arrested by US immigration enforcement

U.S. Immigration officials arrested controversial British far-right commentator Milo Yiannopoulos on Thursday in New Orleans, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

Immigration officials announced on Friday that Yiannopoulos was arrested at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport and accused him of overstaying after entering the United States legally in May 2019 through New York City. An immigration judge issued a final order of removal on July 22 after Yiannopoulos failed to show up for his immigration hearing, a DHS spokesperson wrote in an email.

“He chose to overstay his welcome in violation of our nation’s laws,” a spokesperson for DHS wrote in an emailed statement.

ICE’s online detainee locator doesn’t say where Yiannopoulos is being held but directs family and legal representatives to the agency’s office in Alexandria, Louisiana, a deportation hub for international flights.

Liberals are laughing about this, but, hey, he overstayed, he needs to go. That’s it. Oh, well. Bye. But, where are all the Democrats trying to protect this illegal who wasn’t committing any crimes other than an overstay?

Your Fault: El Nino Is Worse Because Of Global Boiling

By William Teach August 28, 2026 – 3:44 pm

This is not unexpected from the cult, right?

Human-Caused Climate Change Is Making El Niño Stronger, Corals Show

With a so-called “Godzilla” El Niño already strengthening in the Pacific, scientists this week revealed that the ocean warming phenomenon is more powerful than at any point in the last 1,000 years—and human-caused climate change is the reason why.

Oh, they have actual empirical evidence from the past 1,000 years? They have done data collection? Or just specific recreations, mostly through computer models?

A new study of Pacific corals, published Thursday in the journal Science, shows that El Niño variability in the eastern Pacific is now 36.5% stronger than it was before the industrial era, a jump that the study’s authors say is too large to be explained by anything except planetary warming caused by the burning of fossil fuels.

There is zero journalistic skepticism in this article, as well as the many others aping this so-called study. In no way do they attempt to require hard evidence to back the assertion. It is a doomsday cult and the Credentialed Media are their town cryers.

Wackjob CBC Tells Employees Not To Call 9/11 A Terrorist Attack

By William Teach August 28, 2026 – 10:30 am

Here you have Canadian leftists who placate Islamic extremists running wild

Canadian Broadcasting Corp Tells Staff Not to Refer to 9/11 as ‘Terrorist Attack’

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) sent a memo to its reporters and editors this week instructing them not to refer to the September 11, 2001, attack on America as a “terrorist attack.”

The memo, first reported by an astonished Warren Kinsella at the Toronto Sun, used boldface type to emphasize the directive to CBC employees.

“Do not refer to the Sept. 11 attacks as terrorist attacks,” the memo said bluntly.

“The hijackings led to passenger jet crashes in Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania and Manhattan. The World Trade Center was destroyed,” the memo continued, by way of explaining why the atrocity seen by most of the world as the textbook example of a “terrorist attack” should not be described as such.

According to Kinsella, the memo originated with Basem Boshra, the Senior Director of Journalistic Standards and Public Trust at CBC News.

And who is Basem Boshra?

(Front Page) The memo comes from Basem Boshra: an Egyptian Muslim immigrant who formerly served as editor at the Montreal Gazette. At the Montreal Gazette, Boshra spent a lot of time complaining about how Islamophobic Canadians were.

Huh. Let’s not forget all the times people have been prosecuted for insulting Islam and Mohammad in Canada. Back to first article

Kinsella reached out to CBC to ask for further insights on why “hijackings” that “led to passenger jet crashes” should not be treated as terrorism.

The response, from CBC spokeswoman Kerry Kelly, was this:

CBC’s longstanding language guidance regarding the terms ‘terrorist’ and ‘terrorism’ is a preference for the use of these words with attribution, a practice shared by many of the world’s top journalistic organizations. Our general manager and editor in chief has written publicly in the past on the subject.

Yeah, she’s very much an AWFL, and tried multiple times to defend this insanity with all sorts of gobbledegook. Back to Front Page

There’s a simple truth here that too many fail to understand and articulate. This kind of thing isn’t coincidental or political correctness. It’s a cover-up of the Jihad being waged against us by the entire Muslim world. We welcomed in its operatives and loyalists from the Muslim world and the ones who aren’t bombing us are helping the ones who are. There are disagreements over tactics, not long term objectives.

At the heart of it all is a drive to bring down the western world and replace it with an Islamic one.

Islamists see 9/11 as holy jihad, as a wonderful thing. They loved the 7/7 attack in the UK. Hamas attacking Israel on 10/7. And all the rest. Most Islamist won’t get violent themselves, but, they approve, and do want to change Western nations into caliphates.

Sadly, too many under 30 do not understand this. They never really understood the horror of that day. Many adults have forgotten, and many Leftists have been captured by the system to sympathize with the Islamists.
