Elon Musk Says “Hateful, Unrepentant Racists” Should Be Removed from the Republican Party “Root and Stem” as Debate Over H-1B Visas Intensifies

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/elon-musk-says-hateful-unrepentant-racists-maga-should/

In a recent escalation of the internal Republican Party debate over H-1B visas, tech magnate Elon Musk has called for the expulsion of “hateful, unrepentant racists” from the party.

This statement comes amid rising tensions between Silicon Valley leaders and certain factions of the MAGA movement regarding the employment of highly skilled foreign workers.

The controversy centers on the appointment of Sriram Krishnan, an Indian-American entrepreneur, as a senior policy advisor on artificial intelligence in President-elect Donald Trump’s administration.

Krishnan’s selection has drawn criticism from the MAGA movement, notably Laura Loomer, who accused Indian immigrants of “stealing jobs” and labeled them as “third-world invaders.”

Laura Loomer then claimed that she was suspended for 12 hours on X after a heated exchange with the platform’s billionaire owner, Elon Musk

Biden Is Wrong To Double Down on Syria

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/biden-is-wrong-double-down-syria/

On December 19, the U.S. Department of Defense announced that there are roughly 2,000 troops stationed in Syria – 1,100 more than previously shared with the public. Pentagon spokesperson Major General Patrick Ryder disclosed the new number almost off-handedly, without explanation for the shock news as Syria experiences a generational moment following former President Bashar al-Assad’s regime collapse on December 8. The announcement personifies the ongoing and widespread disdain of American political and military leaders for transparency on military operations abroad. Continue…

She then goes on to push various programs offered by the Obama Foundation.

Many people were unimpressed.

STUDY: Late Night Losers Spent the Last Year Bashing Trump But Didn’t Move the Needle at All

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/study-late-night-losers-spent-last-year-bashing/

Late night TV hosts like Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel have spent the last year going after Trump constantly and it made absolutely no difference, a new study has found.

These painfully unfunny leftists have had Trump living in their minds rent-free for years, but they really ramped up the attacks over the last 12 months because it was an election year.

They shouldn’t have bothered. American voters completely ignored them anyway.

A woman has been arrested trying to cross into Canada after fleeing Washington, where she and her husband attempted an “honor killing” of their 17-year-old daughter.

Zahraa Subhi Mohsin Ali, 40, and her husband Ihsan Ali, 44, have been charged with attempted murder, kidnapping, and assault over the attack on their teenage daughter on October 18.

The girl had attempted to run away to Timberline High School in Lacey, Washington after her parents tried to put her on a flight to Iraq.

“Her father had recently been threatening her with honor killing for refusing an arranged marriage with an older man in another country,” according to court documents obtained by the Daily Mail.

A video of the attempted murder showed the father putting her in a chokehold outside the school while her classmates frantically tried to save her. Continue…

J6 ‘QAnon Shaman’ Jacob Chansley: Kamala Harris Certifying Her Own Election Defeat Proves ‘God Has a Sense of Humor’ (VIDEO)

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/j6-qanon-shaman-jacob-chansley-kamala-harris-certifying/

This January 6th patriot is having the last laugh.

Jacob Chansley, sometimes known as the “QAnon Shaman” for the extraordinary outfit he was wearing on that fateful day, was asked in an interview with Breitbart News about the fact that as vice-president, Kamala Harris will be required to certify her own election defeat.

“How poetic is it that Kamala Harris has to certify the election results on January 6th, 2025?” asked the host, Alana Mastrangelo.

“Evidence that God has a sense of humor,” he replied. “It’s like Joe Scarborough just bad-mouthing Donald Trump for years — and now he has to go kiss the ring at Mar-a-Lago. God loves poetic justice.”

Chansley was sentenced by the Biden regime to 41 months in prison back in November 2021, despite the fact that his protest was entirely peaceful.

He was released in March last year after serving just under half of his sentence.

He also expressed hope that he and the other January 6th prisoners will finally have their ordeal come to an end by receiving a pardon from Trump as soon as he gets into office.

Euthanasia and the Failure of Canada’s Health Care System: A Human Tragedy

https://gatewayhispanic.com/2024/12/euthanasia-and-the-failure-of-canadas-health-care-system-a-human-tragedy/

The rise of euthanasia in Canada, under the guise of progress, exposes an alarming truth: the abandonment of the fundamental values ​​that should guide any society.

Instead of investing in a health care system that cares for the most vulnerable, the country has opted for a quick and tragic solution: facilitating assisted dying as a response to the deficiencies of its health care system.

The case of Samia Saikali, a 67-year-old grandmother who chose euthanasia after a 10-week wait to be seen by an oncologist, calls into question the moral and ethical direction that Canada has decided to take. Continue…

Incoming DOJ investigation?

On Saturday President Trump said the Democrats illegally paid to get the endorsement of Oprah, Beyoncé, Al Sharpton and others.

“Are the Democrats allowed to pay $11,000,000, $2,000,000, and $500,000 to get the ENDORSEMENT of Beyoncé, Oprah, and Reverend Al? I don’t think so! Beyoncé didn’t sing, Oprah didn’t do much of anything (she called it “expenses”), and Al is just a third rate Con Man. So what is going on here??? Totally against the law, and I have heard there are many others!!!” Trump said on Truth Social. Continue…

179 Dead In South Korea's Worst-Ever Aviation Disaster

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/plane-175-passengers-crashes-south-korea-airport-least-23-dead

The death toll rose to 179, leaving just two of the 181 souls on board the Boeing 737-800 jetliner unaccounted for, according to The Guardian.

Two crew members—one male and one female—survived and are currently hospitalized. The two survivors were found in the aircraft's tail section, the only part of the plane that retained some of its shape after the high-speed runway crash.

Jeju Air Flight 2216 from Bangkok to Muan, South Korea, crashed and caught fire after a 'bird strike' reportedly caused a landing gear malfunction, forcing the pilots to land the jet on its belly. However, the pilots could not burn off enough airspeed during the landing approach and flaring process during the landing, resulting in the aircraft crashing into a berm at the end of the runway.

Pandemic Hawks Circle Dr. Jay: Pundits Launch Attacks On Bhattacharya Ahead Of Confirmation Hearings

https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/pandemic-hawks-circle-dr-jay-pundits-launch-attacks-bhattacharya-ahead-confirmation

For those who opposed the censorship and cancel campaigns during the pandemic, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya became an iconic figure of resistance. Unfortunately, the same can be said of the anti-free speech movement and pandemic hawks. Bhattacharya, who co-authored the Great Barrington Declaration and was a vocal critic of COVID-19 policies, has been nominated as the next head of the National Institutes of Health. As I wrote this weekend in my column, the nomination was heralded by many as a turning point for the NIH. It is also a rallying cry for those who supported the earlier measures, as shown by a hit piece in Scientific American, accusing him of being a danger to the very lives of American citizens.

Bhattacharya was censored, blacklisted, and vilified for the last four years due to his opposing views on health policy, including opposing wholesale shutdowns of schools and businesses. He was recently honored with the prestigious “Intellectual Freedom” award from the American Academy of Sciences and Letters. Continue…

Zelensky Charges Slovakia's Fico With Opening "Second Energy Front" At Moscow's Bidding

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/slovakia-threats-cut-electricity-ukraine-amid-gas-transit-spat

Slovakia has threatened to cut off electricity to Ukraine if the Russian gas transit route halts at the end of the year, as we detailed earlier. Slovakia is greatly dependent on Russian gas, and Ukraine is not expected to renew a major energy transit contract with Russian state suppliers.

With just a few days away from the start of the new year, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico escalated the standoff by saying he can leverage electricity supplies to Ukraine. "After Jan. 1, we will consider the situation and the possibility of reciprocal measures against Ukraine," Fico said in a video released Friday.

"If it is unavoidable, we will stop the supply of electricity, which Ukraine urgently needs in the event of grid failures," he said. The war of words and threats is ratcheting by the day. Continue…

Israeli Army Moves Deeper Into Southern Lebanon Despite Ceasefire

Thursday marks the 30-day mark in the 60-day ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel. While plainly obvious that IDF military operations never really ceased, Israel is now openly talking about staying in Lebanon past the 60-day pullout deadline.

Even more concerning, Israel has pushed the offensive deeper into southern Lebanon, seizing the town of Wadi al-Hujeir and firing rounds of machine gun fire as troops advance, forcing the civilian population to flee once again. Continue…

Germany Has No Defense Against Russian Ballistic Missiles, Govt Review Says

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/german-media-says-country-has-no-defense-against-russian-ballistic-missiles

Russian media has picked up on a report in Germany's Bild newspaper which highlights a German government assessment saying the country is defenseless against the Russian Oreshnik missile system.

"The Patriot is not right to combat longer-range ballistic missiles, such as the Oreshnik," Bild quoted a government document as saying, in reference to the US-supplied air defense missile system. "Any interception would be more like sheer luck."

The report further underscored that currently Germany has no effective method of intercepting an inbound ballistic missile, following decades of a 'neutral' and degraded post-WWII military. Continue…

The United States and Japan have unveiled new guidelines for “extended” deterrence, citing an “increasingly severe strategic and nuclear threat environment” that reflects heightened tensions in the Indo-Pacific, where China, Russia, and North Korea have taken steps to modernize their arsenals and project power.

The guidelines, unveiled on Dec. 27 through coordinated statements from the U.S. State Department and Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, underscore the two nations’ commitment to reinforcing their alliance to maintain regional stability and deter conflict. Continue…

'Philanthro-Capitalism' - RFK Jr. Questions Bill Gates' Motivations

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/philanthro-capitalism-rfk-jr-questions-bill-gates-motivations

“I know most about Gates, you know, because I’ve written a book about him," says Robert F. Kennedy Jr. - President-elect Trump's Secretary of Health and Human Services - recollecting his 2021 book, “The Real Anthony Fauci', where RFK Jr exposes Gates' so-called "philanthro-capitalism", which, he explains is "using philanthropy to make yourself rich and you use it strategically and that’s what he’s done again and again.”

“He’s gotten control of the World Health Organization so that they mandate vaccines all over the world and the companies that make those vaccines are, Gates’ and many of them the major shareholder. And so and he did the same thing with the green revolution.”

RFK Jr. - full of facts and not conspiracies (for, if they were, where are the defamation suits) - then unraveled one of Gates' greatest disasters: Continue…
