Schumer seeks to add the Antisemitism Awareness Act, featuring the IHRA definition ruled unconstitutional by a Texas court, to the 2025 defense bill without a vote. Johnson demands a standalone vote for the bipartisan House-passed bill. Both sides remain firm as NDAA text may come this week.​

This bill provides statutory authority for the requirement that the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights take into consideration the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's (IHRA's) working definition of antisemitism when reviewing or investigating complaints of discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in programs or activities that receive federal financial assistance. According to the IHRA's working definition, antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews.

(JNS) — The U.S. House of Representatives passed resolutions this week condemning antisemitism and moving to strip the tax-exempt status from organizations that provide material support to designated terrorist organizations.

A resolution “Condemning the global rise of antisemitism and calling upon countries and international bodies to counter antisemitism” passed Wednesday by a vote 388-21.

The non-binding measure welcomes the decision by 40 countries, led by the United States, in July to adopt the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, which includes the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism.

“The spiritual cancer of antisemitism is metastasizing — not only in our own country but in many others as well — at a rate that is both shocking and sickening,” said Rep. Chris Smith (R-N.J.), who co-sponsored the resolution with Rep. Kathy Manning (D-N.C.).

“The Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism constitute a program of best practices that can be adopted by countries and organizations to formulate policies that boldly and effectively respond to this pernicious hatred,” Smith said.

The 21 “nay” votes on the resolution came from three Democrats — Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Cori Bush (D-Mo.), all of whom are members of the so-called “Squad” of left-wing progressives — and 18 Republicans.

The group of Republicans who voted “nay” overlapped almost completely with the list of Republicans who voted against the Antisemitism Awareness Act in May, including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.), on the grounds, they said, that the IHRA definition is contrary to the principle of free speech or because it labels as antisemitic the claim that Jews killed Jesus.

Trump Defense Sec pick was heard at a bar saying “KILL ALL MUSLIMS”. It surprising considering the large crusader cross tattoo on his chest and how the military sidelined him for extremism. Glad his dirty laundry is coming to light, and he does t look likely to be confirmed.

The DoJ then filed a lawsuit in October naming Thompson and other executives, accusing the CEO of failing to tell investors about the federal probe before he unloaded over 31 percent of his stock, taking in $15.1 million in proceeds.

In legal documents, investigators said that Thompson and other company execs sold over $117 million worth of UnitedHealth common stock during the four-month period when insiders knew about the federal antitrust investigation but the public did not.

Whoever this MAGA moron is, he's lying.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Monday defended President Joe Biden's decision to pardon his son Hunter despite telling the press multiple times that the president had no such plans. Source

========================================



I fully support Biden's decision to pardon his son, especially in the light of the politically charged atmosphere that defies our nation at present. It would be foolish for Biden to put his son's fate in the hands of Trump, his repulsive nominees for FBI director Kash Patel, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

He also played an important part in convincing Trump to pardon Edward Gallagher, who was accused of shooting at civilians for amusement, including an Iraqi schoolgirl and an elderly man. Witnesses stated that he repeatedly slashed a wounded juvenile victim and posed with his mutilated corpse, and four Blackwater guards convicted of killing Iraqi civilians in the 2007 Nisour Sq massacre.

Everybody is talking about the hostages who are being held so violently, inhumanely, and against the will of the entire World, in the Middle East - But it’s all talk, and no action! Please let this TRUTH serve to represent that if the hostages are not released prior to January 20, 2025, the date that I proudly assume Office as President of the United States, there will be ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East, and for those in charge who perpetrated these atrocities against Humanity. Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW!

Please keep up. The corruption of the Biden Crime Family is well documented in the Congressional Record.

In 2013-2014, the United States orchestrated a violent coup that toppled Ukraine’s democratically elected government, which led to the ousting of President Yanukovych.

Events that followed:

> April 16, 2014: VP Biden meets with Devon Archer at the White House.
> April 21, 2014: VP Biden visits Ukraine and becomes U.S. policy face.
> April 22, 2014: Archer joins Burisma’s board.
> April 28, 2014: British officials seized $23M from Burisma’s owner.
> May 12, 2014: Hunter Biden joins Burisma’s board, and both were paid millions.

In 2019, an investigation revealed that the Obama administration knew Hunter Biden’s position on Burisma’s board was problematic and interfered with U.S. policy in Ukraine.

The investigation also uncovered approved transactions involving the Obama administration which allowed a Chinese government-owned company and an investment firm with Chinese ties to acquire Henniges, a U.S. military technology firm—Bohai Harvest RST (BHR)—linked to Hunter Biden and Chris Heinz.

This is barely the tip of the iceberg.

Trump’s transition was supposed to be a show of force. What happened?​

Irie Sentner
Wed, December 4, 2024

Over the last 24 hours, Donald Trump lost his pick to lead the Drug Enforcement Administration. His choice for Defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, is struggling to gain support from Senate Republicans. The president-elect is now even considering his onetime rival, Gov. Ron DeSantis, to lead the Pentagon.

And these shake-ups to his not-yet-formed administration come after former Rep. Matt Gaetz withdrew from consideration as Trump’s choice for attorney general.

All told, the setbacks are raising new questions about Trump’s power over his party, whether Republicans would submit to any and all of his demands — and the expectation that his chief of staff, Susie Wiles, would bring order to Trump’s transition and White House.

On Tuesday, Chad Chronister, Trump’s choice for DEA administrator, abruptly withdrew from consideration just days after being announced, saying in a post on X he made the decision “as the gravity of this very important responsibility set in,” without citing a specific reason. Chronister, a county sheriff in Florida, had drawn criticism from some conservatives over his actions during the Covid-19 pandemic but was not seen as one of Trump’s more controversial administration picks.

He was the second Trump nominee to drop out of consideration in as many weeks, following Gaetz’s brief, whiplash-inducing candidacy, which thrust Capitol Hill into chaos over a sealed ethics report into the former Florida congressman. Trump ultimately replaced Gaetz with former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi.

And now, as new reports come out about Hegseth that could further impede his confirmation by the Senate — including allegations of sexual assault and alcohol abuse — Trump is considering dropping the former Fox host and installing another Florida man: his, and Wiles’, old foe DeSantis. Read more

There is nothing there, you are simply reposting debunked conspiracies. The basic truth is that for four years, from 2016 to 2020, Trump spread the same conspiracy and lies while failing to prove anything. The current Republican-led House has been propagating the same conspiracies and misinformation without any actual evidence.



Btw, does the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thomason have anything to do with US politics?
