Do you agree that Islamist extremists who refuse to assimilate, chant “Death to America,” or burn our flag should be deported immediately ?
A. Yes, absolutely
B. No
Never forget: Ilhan Omar’s family didn’t flee Somalia as the oppressed. They fled because her father, Nur Omar Mohamed, was a senior colonel in the Somali National Army of the genocidal communist dictator Mohamed Siad Barre, the regime that systematically slaughtered up to 200,000 people, mostly Isaaq civilians, in one of the worst genocides in modern African history.
Her father wasn’t some low-level nobody or a teacher who just happened to be around. He was an esteemed senior officer who commanded a regiment, trained in the Soviet Union, and stayed in the military hierarchy of that brutal Marxist-Leninist dictatorship for years.
When the regime finally collapsed under the weight of its own mass murder, famine, and civil war in 1991, the family ran, not as victims of the dictatorship, but as people tied to the apparatus that had just spent years bombing cities, executing civilians, and turning northern Somalia into a killing field.
Now this same family is in the US, where Omar stands up and lectures Americans about justice, accountability, morality, and “genocide.” The hypocrisy is sickening. A daughter of a colonel from the regime that carried out the Isaaq genocide has the gall to moralize to the country that took her in after her father’s side lost power.
Her father came to the U.S. as a “refugee,” just like Yusuf Abdi Ali, who was accused of war crimes and later found liable for torture in a U.S. civil court. Yet, as far as publicly available information shows, her father never faced comparable scrutiny or accountability. Consider this: Ali was deported from the US only two years ago, after a survivor pursued justice through the courts. It took a survivor’s determination to bring his abuses before a judge and jury.
That’s the record.
@TheBuckeyeNut If Day were at almost any other Big 10 school he'd have a losing record. Sadly, Harbaugh was right. Day was born on 3rd base. Lou Holtz was also right. Day is not tough.
🚨BREAKING: Colorado’s new governor-elect Phil Weiser, who showed up at “No Kings” protests, is already signaling he wants to change two measures voters just approved.
Colorado voters passed ballot measures banning biological males from girls’ sports and restricting sex-change procedures on minors. Weiser responded by saying lawmakers will have to look at these “anti-trans measures” and decide what “adjustments” are necessary.
The same politician who rallied against kings now wants to override the clear will of the voters. This is the crowd that constantly cries “democracy.”
Considering Texas voters seem to want to turn that state into California, I’ll tell you that you’re going to need a lot more money. No income tax and moderate sales tax? You’ll never have the cash for aimless programs like we have in CA. I expect the first thing these new TX politicians will do is jack up every tax they can manipulate. Sales tax and property tax will get higher instantly, and expect some crazy gas tax, too. They’ll say it’s for “the roads and the schools.” That’s how you know it’s earmarked to steal.
(Chart below does not show that LA sales tax is 11.4%. Also, gas tax + sales tax per gallon often makes our gas prices close to double the national average.)
Did you know that the subject of "Hang on Sloopy" is a Steubenville, Ohio girl named Dorothy 'Dottie' Sloop, a jazz artist who performed in the quartet Southland Rhythm Girls? Did you also know that it was a Dayton, Ohio band called The McCoy's who made the song famous?
After seeing her perform at the band's club in New Orleans, "Twist & Shout" song-writer Bert Russell Berns was inspired enough by Dottie to write the iconic song, which was originally entitled "My Girl Sloopy" and performed by The Vibrations, who took it to No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1964.
The song was soon rerecorded by the McCoys as a rock song entitled "Hang on Sloopy." That version Hit No. 1 in 1965, and was first played by @TBDBITL a week after it hit No. 1, and has been played at the end of the third quarter now for more than 60 years.
Ohio is the only state in the union to have an official rock song: "Hang on Sloopy."
