Dr. Ayesha Khan, a resident at @VUMChealth celebrated the attacks on Israel. She claimed Hamas deserves to “resist.. by any means necessary” and posted a photo of paragliders representing the Hamas terrorists who paraglided into Israel and murdered over 1,400 people, raped, beheaded, burned, and took hundreds of hostages including Americans. This is what she means by “any means necessary.”
Would you feel comfortable with this person being your doctor?
If another country’s President arrested the leading member of the opposition party & silenced him from speaking, we’d cry foul. Those who pontificate about Putin & muse about the “threats to our democracy” would do well to take a long hard look in the mirror. What they see won’t be pretty.
We’re the explorers, the pioneers, the unafraid. We dare to achieve what others tell us we can’t & we don’t apologize for it. That’s what we celebrate today. Happy Columbus Day.
We have a major crisis at the southern border, but Democrats and Republicans alike are ignoring a fast-growing crisis at our *northern border.* Today, I am visiting the vulnerable Swanton Sector of the northern border. The total number of illegal crossings here last January surpassed the preceding January apprehensions for the past 12 years *combined.* Human trafficking, drug smuggling, and illegal border crossings are all up sharply. We are a nation of laws – and when people abuse our laws, they must face penalties for their actions. What’s happening now at both our southern and northern borders is a direct attack on the rule of law in America.
It’s infuriating to see kids and families in Chicago shoved aside to welcome illegals who bum-rush our border. I visited the South Side of Chicago, abandoned by their leaders as illegal migrants now flood their city. Spending $7k per migrant *per month.* Staggering. America First is simple: prioritize our citizens, not the illegals who got here 12 hours ago.
We are inching closer to a major conflict with Russia & China over a conflict in Ukraine that doesn’t advance American interests. Biden sold off our foreign policy to make his family rich, but we don’t need to replace him with a dangerous warmonger like @NikkiHaley who’s leading Republicans to fall for Biden’s war.
TRUTH: the fact that “Putin is bad” doesn’t mean Ukraine is good. Pro-war Republicans are selling the same lie as Biden. Zelensky has banned 11 opposition parties & consolidated all TV channels into *one* state broadcaster. The country threatened not to hold its regular elections unless the U.S. forks over more $$, it has an abysmal record on corruption, and Zelensky shamefully joined the Canadian parliament to applaud a Nazi collaborator. Most occupied regions in the Donbas are Russian-speaking & haven’t voted in Ukrainian parliamentary elections for nearly a decade. We have to confront these hard facts or else we’ll repeat the same mistakes as we did in Iraq & Afghanistan.
Last week’s RNC debate was a disgrace, and I’m starting to believe that was by design. This is what a brokered and rigged nomination process looks like. I disagree like hell with @GovChristie, but when they asked me to face off with him, I said I’d be a man and do it – before the RNC intervened to cut it off.
Instead of allowing open dialogue and the airing of ideas to give primary voters a real choice, the Establishment would rather cut backroom deals and offer up phony debates, including candidates with no viable path and questions that no voter would ever ask. The Establishment was hellbent on taking down Trump. Now they’re hellbent on propping up their favored puppets. We won’t let them get away with it.
It’s pathetic that the Super PAC puppet masters have now ‘summoned’ their favored Establishment puppets to broker a path to defeating Trump instead of allowing GOP voters to make a real choice on their own by hearing directly from candidates. Republican voters deserve better than this broken process.
Gavin Newsom promised to appoint a “Black woman” to the Senate & he just kept his word. Now that that’s done, his next pledge should be far bolder: fill every future position in the state based solely on merit. It’s amazing what that kind of radicalism could do for California…
