Another poor excuse for a citizen .
Much of what is wrong in today's world IMO is due to a lack of honor

Quote:Former Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) special agent Charles McGonigal has been sentenced to over four years in prison. The U.S. District Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York said he had been supplying information to a Russian oligarch.
McGonigal, 55, was handed a 50-month jail term for his interactions with Oleg Deripaska in 2021. As part of a plea agreement, McGonigal acknowledged he received $17,500 from Deripaska.

The FBI “spy tracker” is perhaps best known for his work in helping launch the Russia hoax against President Donald Trump. McGonigal was responsible for much of the early work that led to the opening of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation.
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said McGonigal “violated the trust his country placed in him by using his high-level position at the FBI to prepare for his future in business.”
“Once he left public service, he jeopardized our national security,” Williams added.
McGonigal said he was “deeply remorseful”. He added that he took “full responsibility” and claimed he “never intended to hurt the U.S., FBI, or my family.”

3 years plus later they are now coming after real Journalist.....

Now we know why.

Again, nothing surprises me any longer. This guy has active Youtube and Facebook accounts going... go figure.

Radical Michigan imam believed to have inspired London terror attack calls for Muslims to wage Jihad in US

https://nypost.com/2023/12/15/news/radic...ace-jihad/

Quote:An extremist Michigan cleric whose hate-filled sermons were said to have inspired the London Bridge terrorist attack has called on American Muslims to wage Jihad against the “infidel West” — and blamed the US led by “senile Pharaoh” Biden for what he called a “genocide in Palestine.”



Ahmad Musa Jibril, 51, a radical Islamist preacher who was born in Dearborn, is seen in videos posted on social media arguing that Muslims in the US should turn away from what he described as a watered-down “American-Zionist Islam” that ignores the idea of Jihad.
“Yes, there is holy war in Islam, it is Jihad,” Jibril lectured in one clip posted on X by an account associated with the fanatical imam. 


“This may be a surprise to many who grew up in the West, especially those who were born or grew up post-9/11, because of the growing number of hypocrites, who are spreading the American-Zionist Islam, and it has nothing to do with Islam, that version of Islam is and Islam that suits the enemies.”
In another video shared on a Telegram channel associated with Jibril, the hardline Palestinian-American preacher addressed the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, saying it should be viewed as a “wake-up call” for young Muslims in the US to start “normalizing” Jihad.
“Jihad must be a common, normal term on your tongues, on your social media, and in the mosques and elsewhere,” Jibril said.


In Islamic tradition, jihad is generally used to reference a righteous struggle against internal and external obstacles, according to the group Learning for Justice. While it can involve fighting against oppressors, the violent “holy war” perception is largely a misinterpretation perpetuated by extremists.

Jibril also did not mince words when discussing President Biden, whom he labeled a “terrorist,” and his administration’s policy toward Israel.
“You have seen that senile Pharaoh of our time, he has lost his mind of everything, except his loyalty and support for Jewish occupiers,” the extremist cleric seethed, adding that the US “is more to blame for the genocide in Palestine that the occupying Jews.”

Quote:It was previously reported that security experts had named Jibril as one of the most influential online recruiters for ISIS at the start of the terrorist group’s ascent nearly a decade ago, according to Newsweek.

Jibril, who preaches an ultra-conservative Salafist version of Islam, had used his platform to call on young people to travel to Syria and join the ranks of ISIS.
A survey conducted by The International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation and Political Violence in 2014 indicated that more than half of the likes and follows on the X and Facebook accounts operated by Jibril at the time were ISIS members.

In 2004, Jibril was convicted of 42 criminal counts, including conspiracy, fraud, money laundering, and possession of firearms and ammunition. He was sentenced to more than six years in a high-security federal prison, from which he was released in 2012. 



Active accounts associated with Jibril on social media currently have amassed more than 31,000 followers.

The Post has reached out to YouTube and Facebook about the accounts

Somehow, this does not even surprise me. There is no shame, decency or morality left there any longer.

NEW: Senate Staffer Caught Making Hardcore Porn in Capitol Office Building, Democrat Senator Identified

Quote:Democrat Sen. Ben Cardin is going to have some explaining to do after one of his staffers was caught making hardcore gay porn inside the Capitol Complex. 

The news was first broken by "Cockburn," an anonymous writer over at The Spectator, who shared the tale in rather poetic terms. That story also identified the Senate office involved as belonging to Cardin.


The so-called hallowed Halls of Congress play host to a plethora of indecent acts every day — but one staffer for Senator Ben Cardin is taking it to new levels.


The public Twitter account of the audacious young “twink” is comprised almost solely of him in flagrante delicto with his older “bear” partner. The images and videos are explicit — and conspicuously and deliberately contain the staffer’s face.

One pic in particular, shared privately with Cockburn, raised his eyebrow, as it was taken in what certainly appears to be a conference room in the Hart Senate Office Building, where his boss’s office is located.

Shortly after that report, one of the videos posted by the staffer was found and published by a conservative news outlet. It showed a nearly naked man on all fours inside the Capitol office building with a well-placed Capitol Dome over his genitals. The video wasn't just nude posing either. The male staffer and his boyfriend filmed themselves having anal sex inside a meeting room. I'd think some congressional members won't be too happy with the news.

According to Cockburn's original write-up, this male staffer and his boyfriend, who is described as an "older bear," have been using Twitter as their personal porn set for a while.


I can't wait for the mainstream press to claim this is "revenge" porn and that these videos were improperly published by right-leaning news outlets. That's exactly what they did in the case of Susanna Gibson, the Democrat state senate candidate from Virginia who streamed sex videos of herself online.

Did this staffer not think he would get caught? Or perhaps he thought nothing would happen even if he did. That's not a bad bet, given the level of degeneracy that is consistently excused on the left. I expect this guy to be made into a victim in short order, with sites like RedState being demonized for daring to report the news. 
Is it really that surprising that it turned out to be a Democrat senator whose staffer was making gay porn inside a Capitol office building? This stuff almost just feels like par for the course at this point. I wake up every day expecting the far left to shove some new and degrading insanity down America's collective throat.


With all that said, it'll be interesting to see how the mainstream press covers this, or better yet, if they do at all. We all know they would if it involved a Republican Senate office.

UPDATED 5:45 PM ET: According to journalist Greg Price, the staffer in question has been identified.

The Oera Linda Book is an old Frisian manuscript purporting to cover historical and religious themes of remote antiquity from 2194 BC to 803 AD in parts of Europe, including catastrophism, nationalism, mythology and a matriarchy dedicated to the goddess Freya.

The text alleges that Europe and other lands were, for a large part of their history, ruled by a succession of folk-mothers presiding over a hierarchical order of celibate priestesses dedicated to the goddess Frya, daughter of the creator god Wr-alda and Jrtha, the earth mother. The claim is also made that this Frisian civilization possessed an alphabet that was the ancestor of the Greek and Phoenician alphabets.

As much as our governments insist that the economy is supposedly doing so much better the reality that my own eyes shows me paints a much more serious picture. 

Today was my yearly trip to the post office to mail off Christmas packages to the kids and grandkids which I generally do about 10 days before Christmas- enough time to pay for cheapest shipping but for packages to still arrive in time.  Apparently many others generally think along the same lines as I so I plan to wait in a very long line that goes outside of the building and down the sidewalk. The wait is generally anywhere from an hour plus but usually closer to two hours so I loaded all of my packages in a trash bag to carry them in like Santa and then I could just slide the bag across the floor as the line advanced, much easier than trying to juggle arm loads of packages.

Imagine my surprise when I pull up to the post office and there is nobody there! No line at all! I walked straight up to the counter with absolutely no wait and only one other person walked in while my packages were being scaled. I asked Miss Debby (the postal worker) what was going on and she said this has been the slowest Christmas shipping season she's ever seen and she has been working at that post office for almost 50 years. She waved her hand toward the gigantic box she was depositing my packages into after scaling each one and mine were the only packages in there- normally it would be overflowing with workers from the back struggling to keep up.

So in my opinion the economy is tanking. People can't afford to send gifts to their families and friends when they are struggling to pay rent and buy groceries. No matter how much of our oil reserves Pedo Joe pumps into the system to bring gas prices down in an attempt to bamboozle the public opinion on economic matters one only needs to open one's eyes a little wider to see the reality of the situation- or as in this case just walk into the post office and witness what is NOT happening because that is what shows the truth of the matter.

Maybe should have put this one in rant, just still kind of in shock as I've never seen the post office so empty this close to Christmas!

Absolutely a terrible period in mankind's quest for war and domination. The Japanese brain washing of their soldiers was well done as they seemed to have little or no remorse for the brutality they inflicted upon the conquered or captured. Some may not be able to view this video either from their location or the grossness of the acts the Japanese committed and this is but the tip of the atrocities.

"Munich Man" by Karl Arnold (1883-1953) published Dec 3, 1923.
In the aftermath of Hitler's failed Beer Hall Putsch, the "Munich man" gets drunk on Fascism and monarchism on the cover of satirical German magazine Simplicissimus.


Simplicissimus was a satirical German weekly magazine, headquartered in Munich, and founded by Albert Langen in April 1896. Due to its subject matter the magazine was officially viewed as immoral, revolutionary and socialistic. It continued publishing until 1967, interrupted by a hiatus from 1944–1954, and became a biweekly in 1964.


It took its name from the character in the 1668 novel Simplicius Simplicissimus (German: Der Abenteuerliche Simplicissimus Teutsch) by German author Hans Jakob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen (1621/22 – 17 August 1676). Inspired by the events and horrors of the Thirty Years' War in Holy Roman Empire which devastated Germany from 1618 to 1648, it is regarded as the first adventure novel in the German language and the first German novel masterpiece. Grimmelshausen at the age of ten, was kidnapped by Hessian soldiers, and in their midst experienced military life in the Thirty Years' War.

The novel is told from the perspective of its protagonist Simplicius, a rogue typical of the picaresque novel, as he traverses the tumultuous world of the Holy Roman Empire during the Thirty Years' War and comes to symbolize sanity in a depraved, degenerate Europe torn apart by the War.







Simplicius Simplicissimus Wiki


English translations:
Project Gutenberg copy (The first English Edition of Simplicissimus is limited to 1000 copies of which this is No. 11.)



Later edition with new intro published in 1912




Although the magazine's satirical nature was largely indulged by the German government, an 1898 cover mocking Kaiser Wilhelm's pilgrimage to Palestine resulted in the issue being confiscated. Langen, the publisher, spent five years in exile to Switzerland and was fined 30,000 German gold marks. A six-month prison sentence was given to the cartoonist Thomas Theodor Heine, and seven months to the writer Frank Wedekind. All the defendants were charged with "insulting a royal majesty".


Cover: Emperor in the firing line: the cover of the "Palestine issue" shows a caricature by Thomas Theodor Heine, with Kaiser Friedrich Barbarossa doubled over in laughter, clutching a Prussian military helmet, while the crusader Gottfried von Boullion rebukes him with the words "Don′t laugh like that, Barbarossa! There was no point to our crusades either."

″Simplicissimus″ and the Palestine issue - contrary to the 2016 article, with the abdication of the German emperor and the German princes following World War I, the law became invalid. It did not penalize the insult of the German head of state, but the defamation of organs and representatives of foreign states; it was abolished in 2017.

You can view the many Simplicissimus covers here or Digital archive of back issues from 1896–1944 (in German) at Simplicissimus.info

The May 28, 1923 issue from the digital archive has a satirical gallery mugshot poster titled, "What Does Hitler Look Like?" when there were no publicly available photographs, very possibly the first satire of the then Nazi politician.
