    Pentagon Revokes Plea Deal of 9/11 Mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammad and Two Fellow Co-Conspirators After Public Outrage

    By Jim Hᴏft Aug. 2, 2024 9:00 pm

    The Gateway Pundit previously reported that the plea deal — reached between the Convening Authority for Military Commissions and the defendants—Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin Attash, and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi, and signed by retired Brig. Gen. Susan K. Escallier—was intended to mitigate the legal repercussions for the accused while allowing them to avoid capital punishment.

    Details regarding the terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

    I think you might find this interesting. The name of the book is “Ask Not: The Kennedys and the Women They Destroyed”.

    And, yes, they discuss the way RFK Jr. treated his first wife, ending in her suicide.

      We all know the Kennedys haven’t led lives of personal morality. But do we really need to know the details? Who among us has led an unblemished life? Now if reading this book causes us to repent of our own sins, then it might be worthwhile. Other than that, I can’t think of a single positive reason to read it.

        I disagree when it is someone who is putting themselves out there as one of our leaders. We need to know what kind of person they really are and where they came from.

          That’s understandable, aus. However, how do we handle it when people we like for public office have not lived spotless lives?

          Donald Trump has not led a traditionally moral life. Yet we will be voting for him because his policies are beneficial to the nation and we like what we see of him personally. Plus we know the good he’s privately done for individuals and families because those he’s helped have revealed it. But there are many who think his past immorality is reason not to vote for him.

            Donald Trump hasn’t raped anybody (think JFK), or killed anybody (think Ted Kennedy), tried to have his wife declared insane (RFK Jr.) and had her body dug up and moved out of the Kennedy burial plot (RFK Jr.). Yes, I think it’s important to know these things. If Trump had done any of those things, I would certainly think differently about him.

            Yes, he has had several wives and sexual encounters in his life, but that doesn’t rise to the crimes committed by Kennedys.

    Kamala Harris and the Great Democrat Cheat Machine

    https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/08/kamala_harris_and_the_great_democratic_cheat_machine.html

    It told me that Joseph R. Biden received 81 million votes, and it told me that Donald J. Trump received 74 million votes. Three million people also voted for the Communists, the Greens, or themselves. Okay, what else did it tell me? Well, it told me that at the time of the 2020 election, there were 168 million registered voters. So, I got out a pencil and a pad of paper and did me some flyover country cipherin.’ My remedial math skills are not very good, but this was not much of a challenge.

    81+74+3=158

    158 is 94% of 168. (I had to use an online percentage calculator for this, because again… poor math skills.)

    But, Hmm…

    So, just using very rudimentary data provided by the Census Bureau, we can see that for the first time in American History our voter turnout has finally rivaled that of the old Soviet Union, Communist China, and Casto’s Cuba. Huzzah… I knew someday we’d finally catch up.

    Now, the Census Bureau is not known for making mistakes, but if these figures are not merely wrong but catastrophically wrong, then we oughtn’t have a census bureau at all.

    So this is what there is:

    A written synopsis of the 2020 election on the Bureau’s website states that voter turnout was 67%, but for some reason this is not included as a data point in their table of percentages for the last 100 years.

    And more!

    Juicy info about Kamala’s husband. It didn’t involve her, but still.

    Kamala Harris’s husband Doug Emhoff cheated on his first wife with daughter Ella’s nanny Najen Naylor – and got her PREGNANT

    Kamala Harris’s husband’s first marriage ended after he got his children’s nanny pregnant, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.

    Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff cheated on his first wife Kerstin with the blonde nanny, who also taught at their children’s pricey private school.

    The woman, Najen Naylor, 47, did not deny the story when approached by DailyMail.com at her home in the New York millionaires’ playground, The Hamptons.

    She would not comment, except to say, ‘I’m kind of freaked out right now.’

    A close friend with direct knowledge of the affair and pregnancy told DailyMail.com that Naylor did not keep the child – though her social media shows a video of a mysterious baby girl named Brook in 2009, the year the baby would have been born.

    Mornin’ All. Beautiful, pleasant day here…………….so far. It got pretty hot here yesterday afternoon. Still not complaining. I got my elec. bill yesterday and it was $51. I was surprised because last month the air conditioner ran and ran in the late afternoon almost every day. I expected it to be a lot higher.

    Here’s hoping you all have a nice weekend.

        Well, he’s only 21, so I cut him some slack, especially since he has apologized. Reminds me of yesterday’s meme:

          Bravo, Stella,

          We can never forget that some in the media are always looking for a “gotcha” line.

          They stir the pot more than the Weird Sisters witches of Macbeth.

    Christianity is the West’s Immune System

    https://elizabethnickson.substack.com/p/christianity-is-the-wests-immune

    I did not have Christian revival on my dance card for the new millennium, but God in heaven, (literally) that seems to be what is happening across the known world. In every country and state, people are amassing in thousands, tens of thousands in various outpourings of faith. I have dozens of two minute videos to prove it. Of course no one is reporting it. The Olympics Opening Ceremony was another attempt of our vicious leadership to spike violence; instead we have seemingly spontaneous crowds on the streets of every city praising Jesus. The Olympic Village is woken up every morning with this hymn by the team from Figi: [should be Fiji]

    The recall of Boar’s Head deli products has been expanded.

    https://www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls-alerts/boars-head-provisions-co–expands-recall-ready-eat-meat-and-poultry-products-due

    This expansion includes 71 products produced between May 10, 2024, and July 29, 2024, under the Boar’s Head and Old Country brand names. These items include meat intended for slicing at retail delis as well as some packaged meat and poultry products sold at retail locations. These products have “sell by” dates ranging from 29-JUL-2024 through 17-OCT-24.

    Thanks to Lucille for first bringing this to our attention. It’s one of the hazards of large-scale food processing. The follow-up will be important. The cost of the recall is not only in the initial product loss, but also in the damage to the brand name’s future sales.
