The bad guys tried everything to try to stop Donald Trump and the MAGA movement.
Russia hoax. Steele dossier financed by Clinton. Illegal FISA warrants to spy on Trump. Two impeachments. Irregular election practices in 2020 (fraud?). Heavy-handed raid on Mar-a-Lago. January 6 committee. Liz Cheney. Mitt Romney. Nikki Haley. 30 unconstitutional attempts to keep Trump off ballots. Two indictments by Smith/Garland. Indictments by Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, and Fani Willis … all by Democrats.
Media reporting 94% negatively about Trump. Replacing Biden with Harris. ABC supposedly gave questions to Harris before the debate and fact-checked Trump falsely during the debate. "60 Minutes" changing Harris' interview answers. SNL/NBC giving time for Harris on Saturday Night Live. False stats on jobs and the economy. Questionable polls like Selzer on Iowa. False claims that Harris was surging. False claims that Republicans were abandoning Trump. False reporting of infighting in the Trump campaign.
Two attempts to assassinate Trump. False reporting that abortion was the top issue for voters. More than a billion dollars to the Harris/Walz campaign from rich oligarchs.
So what was the result? Americans spoke. Trump won. Harris lost. He won the popular vote – the first Republican since 2004 to do so. He won the highest percentage of black and Hispanic votes in decades as a Republican, while Republicans won the U.S. Senate and are projected to maintain the House.
So, what did Juan Williams of Fox News say about it? That Trump won because his voters are racists and voted against a black woman for president. LOL. So typical: the race card, the gender card.
Trump won because he displayed the fortitude of a true executive warrior through all the adversities the bad guys threw at him, and because his record before COVID was so much better for Americans than the record of Biden/Harris.
Kamala Harris was a horrible candidate … flip-flops, no private-sector experience, lies, no real platform except to bash Trump, dumb as a doornail about the economy, about foreign affairs, word salads, not able to speak without a teleprompter, and with her poor pick of Walz as her running mate. She hid from any real questions by the press and was anointed to be the Democratic candidate without ever winning any state primary in 2020 or 2024.
Harris claimed that inflation was caused by price gouging even though CPI and PPI were tracking together and that she could tax unrealized capital gains, which is clearly unconstitutional. She disavowed being in charge of the huge increases in illegal immigration. Kamala divided Americans by race, gender, and wealth. Instead of answering questions about her policies, she glibly told us to read her 90 pages on the internet.
Trump won. MAGA won. America won.
Harris lost. Mainstream media, deep state, and all those liberal pundits lost. The anti-Trump RINOs lost. The race baiters like Barack, Michelle, and Oprah lost. They all, especially the media, need to take a hard look at their actions during this election. Americans saw them all for who they were.
Winning is fun. Losing sucks. Just ask Trump and Harris.

JERUSALEM – Israel's parliament, the Knesset, advanced the first reading of a trilogy of bills Monday aimed at shuttering the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East amid evidence the organization is increasingly indivisible from the Gaza Strip's rulers, Hamas.
The first bill, which would cease the organization's ability to operate on Israeli territory, passed 58-9. The bill proposed to prohibit UNRWA from operating any mission, providing any service or conducting any activity within Israel's sovereign territory.
Meanwhile the second, aimed at stripping UNRWA personnel of the legal immunities and privileges afforded to United Nations staff in Israel, was approved 63-9.
MK Yulia Malinovsky (Yisrael Beiteinu) and other MKs sponsored the final bill, which proposed cutting off the state of Israel's relations with UNRWA and declaring it a terrorist organization. The bill passed with a 50-10 majority and all the bills will now be returned to the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee for further deliberation.
Likud MK Boaz Bismuth, a former editor of the Israel Hayom newspaper who was one of those sponsoring the first bill, was categorical in his condemnation of UNRWA and its activities.
"UNRWA employees worked hand in hand with Hamas in the cruel massacre that took place on that 'Black Sabbath.' UNRWA terrorists murdered, raped and kidnapped Israelis, and assisted in the conveyance of the murder weapons. UNRWA was established in 1949 to provide a solution to the problem of Palestinian refugees, but all it has done since [its inception] is perpetuate the refugee [status of Palestinians], rather than rehabilitate the refugee. It has used the vast resources placed at its disposal for terrorist activity against Israel," according to a Knesset statement.
Bismuth also posted on X, "This [proposed] law sends a very clear message to our enemies: 'We will not permit international organizations to continue in their industry of terrorism and incitement'"
Sharren Haskel MK of New Hope-The United Right party explained the need to find a "parallel" organization and not rely on UNRWA.
"When I realized UNRWA was actually a cornerstone of the Arab conflict here in the Land of Israel, I already understood a change was needed. UNRWA perpetuates the refugee status and passes it on as inheritance. Why? Because it is a very lucrative business."
Mansour Abbas, leader of one of Israel's Arab parties, Ra'am, and who was part of the Lapid-Bennett government between June 2021 and December 2022, opposed the motions. He said designating UNRWA a terrorist organization was "absurd." He argued that although some of its members may have participated in terrorism – it is widely understood at least 12 took part in the Hamas' initial Oct. 7 onslaught – the vast majority work to provide aid for the people who need it. He further pointed out in its absence, Israel would likely be required to assume its operations – which the government has consistently stated it would not do.
The explanatory notes to the bill state: "In the months after the outbreak of the Swords of Iron war, investigative reports were revealed regarding the involvement of the workers of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) in the Gaza Strip in the murderous terrorist offensive that began on October 7, 2023, such as participation in acts of murder and massacre, kidnapping Israeli citizens to the Gaza Strip and providing vehicles and equipment for the purpose of the offensive. Reports were also published regarding the membership of these workers in the Hamas and Islamic Jihad organizations."
Indeed, the instances of IDF troops operating in Gaza finding weapons caches hidden inside UNRWA facilities – including schools and hospitals – are legion. To say nothing of the Hamas data center found under UNRWA's Gaza HQ in February, including electricity cables connecting it to the UNRWA network.
Israel's Defense Minister Yoav Gallant estimated some 12% of UNRWA's 13,000 employees in Gaza are affiliated with Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), including nearly 1,500 who are thought to be active in one or other of those two terrorist groups. More than 230 of those are assessed to be active members of the military wings of either Hamas or PIJ.
