    The Internal Revenue Service recently awarded a lucrative contract to help modernize its computer databases to the same Washington firm, Booz Allen Hamilton, that employed the man who pleaded guilty last week to stealing and leaking thousands of private tax returns of wealthy Americans, including former President Trump, according to records reviewed by RealClearInvestigations.

    The massive IRS theft is the third major breach of confidential and classified government information by Booz Allen contractors over the last decade – including Edward Snowden’s 2013 leak exposing the National Security Agency’s worldwide anti-terror

    Steve Bannon invited Tea Party Patriots founder Jenny Beth Martin on the War Room on Wednesday morning as Republican lawmakers continue to vote for House Speaker.

    The American people want Jim Jordan as Speaker. The RINOs and DC insiders want an ‘old bull’ to take over the speakership.

    Steve Bannon broke this news during their conversation. Lobbyists are reportedly buying off RINOs for their votes.

  4. WORLD WAR III WATCH: Terrorist Group Hezbollah Calls for “Day of Unprecedented Anger” Against Israel and Biden’s Visit
    By Jim H?ft Oct. 18, 2023 10:30 am121 Comments

    Hezbollah, the Iran-backed terrorist organization, has called for a “day of unprecedented anger” against President Joe Biden’s planned visit to Israel.

    This call comes on the heels of a devastating explosion at a Gaza hospital that left hundreds dead, with both nations disavowing any accountability. The situation is further complicated by Iran’s warning that Hezbollah is close to joining the war with Hamas.

    “Let tomorrow, Wednesday be a day of unprecedented anger against the enemy and its crimes and against Biden’s visit to the Zionist entity to cover and protect this criminal entity,” the terrorist group said in a statement shared on Telegram.

    “Let the message be clear that this is a day that comes after it on the path of resistance, victory, and retaliation for the oppressed from the oppressor.”

  5. Biden’s Border ‘Security’ Takes Aim at Christians

    Resettlement of those persecuted for faith down by huge margin

    The Biden administration’s claims that America’s southern border is closed – even as its policies allow millions of illegal aliens flood in – has become one of his greatest misleading statements.

    But there is one segment of society that is feeling the full brunt of border security: persecuted Christians.

    A report at Decision Magazine documents that the U.S., with Joe Biden now in the White House, has cut the resettlement of Christians fleeing persecution around the globe by 70% – compared to 2016.

    “Open Doors, which annually ranks the 50 countries in which it is most difficult to live as a Christian, and World Relief, a global Christian humanitarian organization, issued a joint report in September that in 2022 the U.S. government resettled barely one-third of the number of Christian refugees who were granted asylum in 2016,” Decision’s report said.

  6. Iconic Jewish NYC deli vandalized with swastika after pro-Israel social media posts
    By Jared Downing and Alyssa Guzman

    Published Oct. 17, 2023, 7:03 p.m. ETA New York City deli was vandalized with a swastika in an anti-Semitic attack that took place after the eatery posted pro-Israel content on their social media.

    FOLLOW THE STORY

    The owner of the 2nd Avenue Deli told The Post that a tenant of the Upper East Side building alerted him that the storefront had been defaced with a hate symbol.

    “This morning, we saw it,” Lebewohl said outside the restaurant. “It’s just horrible. It makes me sad.

    “It’s sad that people just feel the need to say they hate Jews in 2023. That people can just be so open about it. That Jew hatred is out therein now people just feel more empowered to say it.”

    On Tuesday evening a missile reportedly hit the Al Ahli Hospital in Gaza causing a massive explosion and resulting in the deaths of allegedly several hundred Palestinians.

    The Palestinians, Islamic Jihad terror group and western media immediately blamed Israel for the explosion.

    This comes ten days after the largest slaughter of Jews since World War II in a horrific massacre in modern times. Over 1,300 Jews were massacred by Hamas and another 200 Jews were taken hostage back to Gaza on October 7.

    The international media immediately blamed Israel for the attack.

  8. WAYNE ROOT: Trump was Right- and Now You Know It.
    By Assistant Editor Oct. 18, 2023 12:00 pm52 Comments

    I am host of the weekend TV show, “America’s Top Ten Countdown with Wayne Allyn Root” on Real America’s Voice TV Network. Each Saturday I identify the top ten stories that every conservative, patriot and person of faith needs to know. These are the stories you’ll never hear on any mainstream media, or even on Fox News.

    Because the people on those networks (who choose the news stories) do not understand the way that true patriots think. They simply regurgitate whatever the DC Swamp, Deep State, Democrats, RINOS and government wants them to say.

    My “America’s Top Ten Countdown” show this week was a special edition- dedicated to the top ten lessons from the Hamas terror attack on Israel. All ten lessons prove that President Trump was right- about everything.

  9. INSURRECTION! Screaming Far Left Protesters Storm Capitol, Shut Down Rotunda – Demand Israeli Ceasefire in Gaza (Video)
    By Jim Hoft Oct. 18, 2023 2:40 pm281 Comments

    Screaming leftists shut down the rotunda in the US Capitol screaming for a ceasefire in Gaza. The leftists were dressed as Jews but who knows.
    It’s only legal when Democrats do it.

    Screaming leftists entered the US Capitol on Wednesday in an attempt to coerce lawmakers to demand a ceasefire in Gaza.

    The anti-Israel mob took over the rotunda, screaming against Israel and demanding a ceasefire in Gaza.

    The mob also hung flags on the Capitol rails.

    Will they get the J6 treatment from the regime? We all know the answer to that.

    The leftist mob formed a sit-in protest – restricting movement in the building.

    It’s strange how all of this is ignored by the Capitol Police and DOJ when it’s leftists!

  10. Chancellor Olaf Scholz vows to fight antisemitism on German soil after attackers hurled two Molotov cocktails at a Jewish synagogue.

    Police in the German capital say they are probing the attack, which took place in the city’s Mitte district in the early hours of this morning. There are no reports of injuries or damage.

    Germany has seen a sharp increase in antisemitic incidents, in the wake of the Hamas terror group’s massacre of some 1,400 people in southern Israel and the ensuing war between Israel and the group.

    “Two unidentified people came on foot and threw two burning bottles filled with liquid in the direction of the synagogue on Brunnenstrasse,” a commercial and residential street, police say in a statement.

  11. Israel war: Antony Blinken’s doormat diplomacy is embarrassing

    It would not be an international crisis under the Biden administration without Secretary of State Antony Blinken reminding the entire world that everyone can treat the United States like a doormat so long as he is around.

    The Hamas terrorist attack against Israel that led to the slaughter of more than 1,200 civilians has led squeamish liberals to hem and haw about how Israel shouldn’t get too tough on Gaza while fighting the terrorist organization that wants to kill Jews.

    Blinken almost immediately called for a ceasefire, effectively saying that Israel should take the massacre of 1,200 civilians on the chin and not respond at all.

    That has given way now to cries for aid to Gaza in the face of Israel’s justified response. Blinken announced that the U.S. and Israel made an agreement to help get aid to Gaza. The problem with that, though, is that aid to Gaza is confiscated and exploited by Hamas.…

    So what is Blinken going to do if Hamas diverts this new aid away from Gaza residents as it is wont to do? Here is what Blinken said: “If Hamas in any way blocks humanitarian assistance from reaching civilians, including by seizing the aid itself, we’ll be the first to condemn it. And we will work to prevent it from happening again.”

    “We’ll be the first to condemn it.” Surely, Hamas must be quivering in their blood-stained boots at the thought of a strongly worded letter.

    – This matches Blinken’s approach when it comes to terrorists in Afghanistan. Blinken was outraged…
    – The State Department declared that it was “deeply concerned”…
    – Blinken’s doormat diplomacy even includes throwing the U.S. at the mercy of the human rights abusers on the United Nations Human Rights Council…

    Blinken’s reliance on strongly worded letters is weak and embarrassing… broadcasting to the world that the U.S. will do nothing but “be the first to condemn” whatever human rights abuses rear their head next.

    During the civil trial of former President Donald Trump on Wednesday, a court employee was arrested after attempting to approach the former President.

    According to a spokesperson for the New York government, during the trial, the woman, Jenny Hannigan, “Disrupted the session, stood up, and walked towards the front of the court, shouting at Trump, indicating that she wanted to assist him.”

    The woman was apprehended by court officials before getting close to Trump or any of the lawyers representing the other parties involved in the former president’s case.

  16. VIDEO: Radical Ted Cruz Senate Challenger Colin Allred Angrily Threatens to Have Journalist Arrested for Asking Tough Questions About His Record Including on Hamas and for Lawfully Filming Him
    By Cullen Linebarger Oct. 18, 2023 4:30 pm69 Comments

    Radical Texas Democratic Congressman Rep. Colin Allred, who Democrats are counting on to defeat Ted Cruz, threatened a brave citizen arrested for daring to question his record and lawfully recording him.

    The Daily Caller was the first outlet to report on this story.

    The journalist asked the Allred several tough questions including his support for open borders, funding drag shows for children, and his support for releasing millions of dollars in aid to the West Bank.

    As the Daily Caller notes, The West Bank is controlled by Hamas so one could say Allred was indirectly supporting the funding of the Islamist terrorist organization.

  18. HERE WE GO AGAIN: Cher Claims She’ll Leave the United States if Trump is Re-elected
    By Mike LaChance Oct. 18, 2023 8:50 pm483 Comments

    Aging singer Cher is saying that she will leave the United States if Trump is reelected in 2024. Where have we heard this one before?

    In 2016, dozens of liberal celebrities claimed that they would leave the country if Trump won but of course none of them actually followed through and did it.

    Don’t they realize they’d be doing the rest of us a favor?

    Breitbart News reports:

    Left-wing pop star Cher says she will leave the United States if former President Donald Trump is re-elected, claiming that she “almost got an ulcer” when Trump was elected president in 2016.

    “I almost got an ulcer the last time [Trump was elected],” Cher told the Guardian in an interview published Wednesday, adding, “If he gets in, who knows? This time I will leave [the country].”

    Cher had supported President Joe Biden during the 2020 presidential election and even recorded a reworked song, titled, “Happiness Is Just A Thing Called Joe,” for his campaign. The “Believe” singer had also backed Trump’s opponent in the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton.

    Bleep] Israel, the government, and its military. Are you ready for your downfall?’

    A key member of the federal bureaucracy, those government employees who are supposed to fulfill the ideals of the American dream, is a pro-Hamas extremist who bashes Israel and promotes its destruction – to the point of posting online images of terrorists parachuting in – regularly.

    It is an investigation by Daily Wire that confirms the U.S. immigration enforcement agency hired Nejwa Ali, a former spokeswoman for the Palestinian Liberation Organization.

    And then the Department of Homeland Security gave her the authority to decide who can come into America as an immigrant, or “asylum seeker.”

    Her position has not discouraged her from “repeatedly posting pictures of Hamas terrorists parachuting in with guns and writing, “f*** Israel and any Jew who supports Israel,” the Daily Wire confirmed.
