Quit Picking On the Democrats

Israel has more than 50,000 videos from the terrorist attack and are using facial recognition software to identify which terrorists committed which specific crimes.
Each and every one of them is a dead man walking.
Good. Next they need to send in special ops to absolutely smear those people from existence.
Then again, that means they can't also wipe out the rest of Gaza in the process, so not likely. Mass murder is better.
Comic Jon Lovitz goes on political tear against Bernie Sanders and AOC
Lovitz was speaking to Fox Digital News

Comedic actor and outspoken Israel supporter Jon Lovitz told Fox News Digital that Sen. Bernie Sanders is the “best example” of a “self-loathing Jew.”
Best known from his SNL days, he called Sanders “disgusting,” and mocked how the politician describes himself as a “Democratic Socialist,” versus being a communist.
“You know the difference between a communist and a Democratic Socialist?” said Lovitz.
“A Democratic Socialist is somebody you vote for, and then they take all your money and give back what they think you need. A communist — they just appoint themselves. There’s no election and they do the exact same thing. That’s the only difference.”
Lovitz, who says he’s socially liberal but fiscally conservative, said while Democrats were pro-Israel in the past, they’ve now gone so far left, the Squad promotes the anti-Israel Boycott, Divest and Sanction (BDS) movement.
“They go, ‘Let’s give all that money away from Israel, give it to Hamas.’ That’s what they would say. That’s what they want,” Lovitz said. “What’s that — Ilhan Omar? She wants to (not) give money to Israel for military aid. They’re our ally! They’re a democracy! You’re against giving money to a democratic ally, correct? You’re against that. But we’re giving money to Ukraine.”
Lovitz also singled out New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, calling her “moronic” for her position of not having children due to climate change.
“You know, what AOC said?” Lovitz began.
“I don’t care what party she’s in. I think she’s cute. But she’s an idiot,” he added. “She goes, ‘A lot of people in my generation because of climate change are asking themselves, you know, should they have children? So you’re telling all the people of your generation don’t have kids. Then in 50 years, there’s nobody left on the Earth, moron!”

Porno politician Susanna Gibson claims she was victim of 'hit job'

Virginia Democratic candidate Susanna Gibson is irate that her saucy performances on a porn site have been made public. SCREENGRAB
Wannabe politician Susanna Gibson is slamming a vicious “hit job” for derailing her race for the Virginia House of Delegates.
Democrat Gibson’s political aspirations were torpedoed when raunchy webcam videos of her having sex with her husband — and asking for tips — were leaked in the home stretch of the campaign.
Now, Gibson is determined to discover who the leaker was.
However, the fun-loving 40-year-old remains unrepentant about the online raunch.
“When you find out that there are sexually explicit videos of you online — it is a feeling that I would not wish on my worst enemy,” the nurse practitioner and mother-of-two told Politico.
“My entire life was rocked on Sept. 11, when the (Washington Post) article ran, implying that I performed sex acts online with my husband for money. It was really written based on this Dropbox file that self-described Republican operatives shopped around.”
She added: “They had found these videos on the dark web and shopped them around to various news outlets. I didn’t have any idea that there were ever videos of me that had been made and uploaded to multiple sites.”

More than a dozen videos starring the political ingenue were archived on mom-and-pop raunch site Chaturbate dating to September 2022.
Incredibly, Gibson claimed she had no idea the videos existed and is blasting the lurid leak as “an illegal invasion of my privacy designed to humiliate me and my family.”
“I think if I wasn’t a candidate, the Post probably would have been appalled at the invasion of my privacy. But because I was a candidate, they decided that it was a political story, rather than an invasion of my privacy and potentially a crime,” Gibson said.
Gibson’s polling began cratering after the videos emerged and she eventually lost the race last month by 1,000 votes to Republican David Owen.
But she doesn’t believe her star turn had any bearing on her qualifications to hold public office. The sex acts were consensual, she said.
“I think what people do in their private lives, digitally — if it is legal, it is consensual and has no bearing on their ability to do their jobs — I think there should be a barrier,” she told Politico.
“I think that it is unethical to make people’s private lives — especially their sexual private lives — public and part of how we think about them and their ability to do their jobs and make positive contributions to their communities.”

She added: “I think anything, especially that has to do with sexuality — there needs to be a significant barrier there, because of the damage that it can do. It’s a breach of trust and a breach of dignity — the right to dignity and privacy and sexual autonomy.”
Gibson said she decided to run for high office after the Roe v. Wade decision guaranteeing a constitutional right to an abortion was overturned last year. Abortion rights were one of the pillars of her platform.
In the end, Gibson believes her humiliation may only be the beginning, particularly for millennial wannabe pols. She quoted a survey showing that 90% of that cohort’s women had taken nude photos.
Her lawyer has lodged complaints with local cops and the FBI.

U.S. Senate staffer fired, accused of having sex in Capitol Hill committee room

A U.S. Senate staffer allegedly caught filming himself in a sex act in a Capital Hill committee hearing room has been fired, according to Sen. Ben Cardin.
A U.S. Senate staffer allegedly caught filming himself in a sex act in a Capitol Hill committee hearing room has been fired, according to Sen. Ben Cardin.
“Aidan Maese-Czeropski is no longer employed by the U.S. Senate. We will have no further comment on this personnel matter,” a Cardin spokeswoman told the New York Post.
Maese-Czeropski, 24, an aide to Cardin, was accused of posting a video of himself engaged in sex with another man on a public X account.
Cardin, who represents Maryland, announced on X that Maese-Czeropski is no longer employed by the Senate.
The United States Capitol Police are investigating the case.
Maese-Czeropski had been featured in an ad for President Biden — earning a shoutout from his mother’s now deleted X account.
“Thank you for including my son, Aidan Maese-Czeropski, in your thoughtful message to everyone who has supported you,” the staffer’s mother said in a November 2020 post. “He has worked tirelessly with the DNC of Virginia. Congratulations to all!!”

The same year, he apparently wrote on the payment platform Venmo, “I want Joe Biden to spit in my mouth.”
Maese-Czeropski posted a statement to his LInkedIn following a viral video, saying he was being targeted by people pursuing a “political agenda.”
“This has been a difficult time for me, as I have been attacked for who I love to pursue a political agenda,” he wrote. “I love my job and would never disrespect my workplace.”
Maese-Czeropski could not immediately be reached for comment.

Backlash intensifies after Rep. Omar's speech in support of Somalia

Calls for the resignation of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar have come fast and fierce — including from a top House Republican — after the U.S. representative for Minnesota’s 5th district was accused of putting Somali’s interests ahead of the country she serves.
In a speech, Omar, a Democrat born in Somalia, appeared to assure her Somali-American constituents that they should take any measures necessary to prevent the disputed, breakaway Republic of Somaliland from entering into a sea-access deal with landlocked Ethiopia.
“Ilhan Omar’s appalling, Somalia-first comments are a slap in the face to the Minnesotans she was elected to serve and a direct violation of her oath of office,” House Majority Whip Tom Emmer wrote on X. “She should resign in disgrace.”
A clip of the lawmaker representing Minnesota has gained more than 2.6 million views after it was posted on X, with a translation suggesting Omar had said: “As Somalis, one day we will go after our missing territories.”
The congresswoman claims her remarks were lost in translation, the New York Post reported.
“It’s not only slanted but completely off,” Omar said of the subtitles in a video of her speech shared by Republic of Somaliland Foreign Minister Rhoda Elmi. “But I wouldn’t expect more from these propagandists.”
“While I am in Congress, no one will take Somalia’s sea,” Omar said during the Jan. 27 speech, according to a translation she deemed to be more accurate. “The United States will not back others to rob us. So, do not lose sleep over that.”
Elmi told House leadership and Democrats to “take note of (Omar’s) public conduct” and said the speech was “unbecoming (of) a United States Congresswoman.”
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene ripped Omar for vowing to protect Somalia’s borders while opposing efforts to shore up the U.S.-Mexico border.
“Terrorist sympathizer Ilhan Omar in her own words: Somalian first. Muslim second. She never mentions America,” Greene posted on X.
“She flaunts using her position as congresswoman to protect Somalia’s border while our border is invaded by MILLIONS of illegals who are a danger to America,” the Georgia Republican added. “These people hate America, and they’re so emboldened by the Democrats’ disdain for our country, they’re not even trying to hide it anymore.”
The Republic of Somaliland declared its independence from Somalia in 1991, but is not widely recognized internationally, including by the U.S.
Omar wants to keep it that way.
Many on X weren’t having any of it.
“Who in their right mind would think it is OK that your tax dollars are paying someone in government that says America doesn’t come first. What exactly are you paying her for?” one person said in a post.
“She should be immediately expelled from Congress. She took an oath as a citizen against supporting other countries, not to mention one of the biggest supporters of terrorism in Somalia,” another X user posted.

BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — Police in Vermont are seeking a suspect who allegedly started a fire Friday outside the office of U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders. The small blaze caused minor damages but no injuries.
Authorities say an unknown male suspect sprayed what they described as a possible accelerant on the office door, set it on fire and fled. They said the suspect remained at large and no motive had been established.
“A significant fire engulfed the door and part of the vestibule, impeding the egress of staff members who were working in the office and endangering their lives,” Burlington police said in a statement. “The sprinkler system then engaged and largely extinguished the fire.”
Earlier in the day, the Burlington Fire Department said it responded to a call Friday morning and found a fire between the vestibule, the elevator and the entrance door of Sanders’ third-floor office in Burlington. The office door suffered moderate fire damage and much of the third floor sustained significant water damage. The offices of Sanders and those nearby were evacuated.
A spokesperson for Sanders did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Sanders was not at the office.
