Oh, who would have guessed??? And fundraising for her as well.


EXPOSED: Rashida Tlaib is a Member of Secret Facebook Group that Glorifies Hamas Terrorists

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/11...roup-that/

Quote:The group, known as the Palestinian American Congress, remains hidden from public view and is not searchable on Facebook. However, Fox News’ investigative team gained access to its contents, uncovering disturbing details.

Rep. Tlaib, the only Palestinian American in Congress, joined the group six years ago and actively participated during her 2018 congressional campaign.


Maher Abdel-qader, a controversial Palestinian activist with extensive connections to Rep. Tlaib and other liberal politicians, founded the group.

The investigation reveals that the Palestinian American Congress group, with Tlaib as a member, has featured posts supporting Hamas following the deadly Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
These posts include provocative statements and imagery, such as a message dated Oct. 12 from a group member stating, “We don’t want to throw you in the sea…we want you to ride it back from where you came,” accompanied by a graphic image of an elderly Israeli woman held captive by a Hamas fighter.


The Gateway Pundit also reported last month that Canary Mission, a watchdog organization that investigates hatred across the entire political spectrum, including the right, far-left and anti-Israel activists, asserts that three individuals with purported links to Hamas actively fundraised for Tlaib’s 2018 Congressional campaign.

Democrat socialist and terrorist apologist Rashida Tlaib employed three activists reportedly linked to Hamas for fundraising during her 2018 election campaign. One of these activists was previously incarcerated for eight months due to suspected ties to Hamas terrorists.
According to the organization, Tlaib utilized the Facebook page, PAC-USA, for fundraising activities during her 2018 Congressional campaign. She appointed the page’s founder as the Chairman of the Finance Committee for her campaign. This individual organized 12 fundraising events across 8 states with Tlaib’s endorsement.
These individuals are:
[b]Salah Sarsour[/b]: Sarsour is said to have co-hosted a campaign event for Tlaib in Milwaukee in 2018. Previously incarcerated for alleged Hamas activity, he is an activist for American Muslims for Palestine (AMP).
Salah Sarsour raised funds for the Holy Land Foundation (HLF), which was shut down by the US government. Its members were convicted for directing over $12 million to Hamas terrorists.
FBI documents from the 1990s suggest Salah Sarsour was involved in funding Hamas through certain organizations. Sarsour, associated with the Islamic Society of Milwaukee, arranged fundraising events for Tlaib in both 2018 and 2020.
[b]Rafeeq Jaber[/b]: Jaber reportedly hosted a Tlaib fundraiser in 2018. He is a co-founder of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR). In 2003, Jaber testified about his involvement in distributing Hamas propaganda in the U.S. He was also associated with the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP) and the American Muslim Society (AMS), both of which have been linked to supporting Hamas.

[b]Abdelbaset Hamayel[/b]: Another co-host for Tlaib’s Chicago fundraiser in 2018. Hamayel has held positions in various organizations, including KindHearts and the IAP, both of which were allegedly tied to Hamas.
According to Israellycool, “Abdelbaset Hamayel, was the Director and Secretary General of the Islamic Association for Palestine, an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation case and described as Hamas’ public relations arm in the US.

The Author was a friend of mine on a WEB site called The High Road. The High Road was dedicated to people talking about guns and gun laws. Many police and military sharing their ideas about guns, optics and Ammo..Larry first published this book at the High Road in chapters as he finished them and due to the wide acceptance he got a publisher. Good for him as I enjoyed the books greatly and there was even talk of a movie deal.. All that had to be over 17+ years ago. I just found out one of his monster series books was now in an audio book. I read all his paperback books as they were published and was never disappointed.

Hilarous , and most likely true. I will still buy organic eggs /milk etc. I'm so used to it , and it might make a difference 



And this one 

More "Food" plants closing.

Crickets are coming faster and faster.

Yesterday there was a story going around about Biden allowing Iran to have another 10 Billion.

I thought it was probably hype and there was no way even the most foolish idiot would do that while they are financing terrorist, shooting missiles and drones at OUR bases through their false proxies.

Who the hell would be so incompetent to allow a regime shooting at you to a 10 Billion dollar jackpot so they can make more drones and missiles to shoot at us?????

Well, Today THEY DID IT

Biden Admin Considering Giving Iran Access to Another $10 Billion

Biden Unlocks Fresh Funds to Iran Totaling Billions

https://freebeacon.com/biden-administrat...-billions/

Quote:The Biden administration on Tuesday reapproved a sanctions waiver that will allow Iran to access upward of $10 billion in frozen assets, the State Department confirmed to the Washington Free Beacon.

Critics, however, see the sanctions waiver as proof that the administration is maintaining Tehran's financial channels, even after it provided Hamas with the resources necessary to slaughter more than 1,200 Israeli and take hostage many others, including Americans.

"The White House just responded to October 7th with a $10 billion reward," Richard Goldberg, a senior adviser at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and sanctions expert who served on the White House National Security Council, told the Free Beacon. "Congress needs to act quickly to cut off Iran's access to every penny."

Needless to say this does not make me happy...

November 13, 2023

The Biden administration may approve a sanctions waiver on Tuesday that will allow Iran to access at least $10 billion in previously frozen funds held in Iraq, a closely watched decision that comes just a month after the Tehran-backed terror group Hamas launched an attack on Israel that left 1,200 dead.

The waiver would extend the multibillion-dollar sanctions relief first issued in July that expires tomorrow. It allows Iraq to transfer frozen electricity payments into Iranian-owned bank accounts in Europe and Oman. The waiver renewal is driving concerns that the Biden administration is maintaining financial avenues for Tehran as the country’s terrorist proxies foment chaos across the Middle East.
"The world is living in a post-Oct. 7 world, but the White House is still running an Oct. 6 policy toward Iran," Richard Goldberg, a senior adviser at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and sanctions expert who previously served on the White House National Security Council, told the Washington Free Beacon, referring to Hamas’s attack last month. "Why should Iran have any access to more than $10 billion after sponsoring one of the worst terrorist attacks against American citizens and the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust? It would make more sense to freeze all of these accounts and keep every penny out of Tehran's hands."
While the Biden administration paused a $6 billion ransom payment to Iran following a pressure campaign in Congress, the Iraq-Europe-Oman sanctions waiver would signal the United States is still trying to provide financial relief to the hardline regime. Iranian military officials warned Monday that the Gaza war has already "spilled over into neighboring Lebanon and may even widen in scope" as Iranian-armed Hezbollah fighters become more active in the conflict. Tehran also has been rallying Arab nations against Israel, threatening to prolong the war and open more fronts.
The Trump administration first allowed Iraq to import electricity and gas from Iran, but only on the condition that the payments were kept in an escrow account in Baghdad. The Biden administration continued to issue that waiver, and then broadened it in July so that Iraq could move more than $10 billion outside the country, enabling Tehran to draw on the funds for its budget and humanitarian needs. In late October, the governor of the Central Bank of Iran reportedly discussed expediting Iran's access to the funds with his Omani counterpart.
In testimony before Congress late last month, Goldberg advised Congress to lock down the $10 billion as punishment for Tehran’s role in supporting Hamas’s war on Israel.
The Biden administration insists that, like the $6 billion held in Qatar, Iran can only use the $10 billion for non-sanctioned purposes.
Critics argue that since money is fungible, the access allows Iran to free up cash in other places for illicit activities.
Republican lawmakers in Congress made this argument when they pressured the Biden administration to halt its $6 billion ransom payment to Iran, arguing that even though the money was allocated for humanitarian purposes, it helped the hardline regime divert funds into terror groups like Hamas and Hezbollah.

Iranian leaders in recent days have emphasized the importance of the electricity payments, reportedly telling Omani leaders they should "accelerate the use of these new foreign exchange resources" and signaling the regime is relying on the Biden administration to continue freeing up this cash.
The State Department declined to comment on the sanctions waiver or confirm whether it will be renewed this week.

Hi all. 

I hate posting another topic that's around asking help , again I think, but this site is the best online IMO with friendly people   And maybe it helps someone reading , stuck what to do with the same issues.



So I live in Florida with my 12 year old son and have no medical insurance. I just have hospital indeminity insurance , but that would barely cover anything.

So I rent out two rentals.
 What is considered my 'gross income' ?
 Is it the total amount of rent I recieve from my tenants over a year ? 
Or is it the total amount of rent received over a year minus the fixed yearly costs? 

Because talking to one agent, he made it seem as it's the total amount of rent recieved without deducing any fixed costs ! 
Which is insane as the property tax bill alone comes to almost 13k.
So it would be really helpful to know just this already 



Also what would be some good affordable options, that you guys have had good experiences with?
My greatest concern , when it comes to medical costs, is hospital stay and surgery. 
So maybe something that covers just hospital stay/surgery would already be good .


Thanks

Crop losses, housing industry collapse, 50% or more wage cuts for government employees, no orders for the private sector manufacturing segment....what else can go wrong ?

Hi all. I just need to vent. 
I own two rentals (inherited ) and so now's the time property taxes are due. 
I recieved the bills a few weeks back, but didn't want to look sooner. 
Just now I looked. 

So last year for property A the tax was $5777, this year it's $6316
for property B the tax was $5805 , this year it's $6385  .
Combined that's almost 13.000 , that's an insane amount of extortion fees for something I 'supposedly own'.
Every year they go up about $500 each. I remember complaining about 10k a few years back, by my calculations by 2030 the combined taxes will be almost 20k 

Every year they just keep going up! The HOA will complain if something's not up to par, because it will 'affect the home values' , but the higher home values means that taxes can and will be raised! 
I also believe that HOAs are government started and funded.  
HOA fees keep going up to as well each year off course.
Oh and if you don't pay your HOA extortion fees, they will just put a lien on your home. It's criminally insane.
And if you dare selling , the government comes again to steal a piece of your hard work (capital gains tax ) 

Off course this in part of the 'you will own nothing and be happy' plan they are 100% sure of. 
I hope this pigs will rot in a screaming agony imprisoned like they want us to be. They deserver to suffer for what they're doing. 


I'm in a more expensive county of Florida , so that doesn't help. I'm almost at a point where selling , and buying in another part of the state would be an option, but I already home-school and have work to deal with. I don't need this.

I live within my means, but can't afford to live on my own (live in a part of my brothers house). This is so frustrating!
I also can't afford medical insurance , or if try to get that they ask for 'gross income' , wich is my rental income before all the extortion bills , so that treats my bills as income bascially , insane.

Great stories and great pod cast IMO

Combat Check-In:
Veterans Day

On Combat Story This Week

This is our annual Veterans Day tribute where we play the responses our guests shared when answering our question “Would you do it all again?” These often bring a tear to my eye as I hear these battle-hardened warriors volunteering to go right back into the fight. I particularly think back on Intake’s response where he notes it was a privilege for him to serve but even more important to thank his family who waited for and supported him through years of deployments and near misses. You can’t think of Veterans Day without thinking about the sacrifices of the families at home while the vets were downrange. The same is true for me and my family.

 

This Day in Military and Intel History…

On November 11, 1918 (as we all know as the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month), the Armistice of Compiègne was signed, marking the end of World War I. This historic agreement between the Allies and Germany came into effect at 11 a.m. Paris time, symbolizing the cessation of hostilities on the Western Front. It was a momentous event that signaled the conclusion of one of the deadliest conflicts in history. One thing I didn’t realize was that over 2,000 people still died on that day before the treaty was signed if you can imagine the heartbreak for those individuals and their families.
 

What I’ve Been Doing this Week…

I had an eventful week traveling first to San Diego for my late uncle’s memorial ceremony and service at Miramar National Cemetery (it’s a beautiful new cemetery overlooking San Diego and we could see and hear F/A-18s flying on the horizon. My uncle served in the Army in Vietnam, doing his time like so many others. I then traveled to Texas to do an in-person interview and crossover episode with Mike Ritland, the host of the successful Mike Drop podcast which will release in the coming weeks (the image in this newsletter is Mike's studio).

 

From Our Listeners!

“Georgia Boy US sailorman” said the following with a five star review on Apple Podcasts (THANK YOU) about our interviews with AJ Pasciuti and I would have to agree!

 

Humble “AJ Peashoo” is one of the all time greatest of all podcasts ever. I don’t know how you keep finding these “Fine Young Men.”keep setting the bar higher and higher. Great job. Keep up the great work of amazing podcasts.

Another Excellent Show

This is a way overdue review of an excellent podcast. I love everything about this show, the adventures, stories of camaraderie and struggles. Ryan is an excellent interviewer. 
 

This particular episode had me in tears several times. Listening to how others experienced trauma and dealing with it afterwards helps me cope with the loss and related trauma related to losing people I was very close to. It helps me to realize I am not alone and sometimes it’s just life. Thank you Ryan for all you do. It’s an important mission.

 

PS: Ryan, thank you for acknowledging the sound quality and your pledge to work on it. You have a lot of half deaf veterans like myself, who in the past have found it difficult to hear episodes. it has improved greatly over the years. Too many years exposed to firearms, aircraft, and freefall without adequate protection. This episode was spot on.

 

I (Ryan) wanted to say thank you for this great feedback and trust me when I say that I’m always working on the audio quality for this very humble hobby I have of bringing these stories to more people. These comments are like fuel that keeps me going when times are tough. Thank you!

 

For those on this newsletter list, please feel free to reach out to me at ryan@combatstory.com if you ever want to share something you learned or enjoyed about an episode. 

 

A Military Joke That Made Me Laugh

In honor of the Marine Corps’ birthday, we dug up the following:

 

Why do Marines celebrate their birthday every year by cutting a cake with a sword?

 

Because everyone knows you can't trust a Marine with candles - they'd probably try to blow them up instead of blowing them out! ??

 

Again, this is just fun from a place of love! If you couldn’t tell from our interview with our Marine brethren over the years, we love our Marines!

 

An Episode I’m Thinking Back On
While interviewing Mike Ritland this weekend, who is a formidable and wildly successful dog trainer, I’m reminded of one of our very first interviews with Chris Baity (https://youtu.be/PRpHvxaRBwc), a Marine who helped pioneer and shape dog handling tactics and training, not just for the Marines, but also joint efforts across the military. As a military working dog handler, he supported ground units throughout combat theaters, including trojan horse operations with sniper teams and door-to-door house clearings. In one instance, Chris and his dog uncovered a weapons cache in a scene eerily similar to one depicted in the book and movie, American Sniper. It was our third interview ever and so poorly done on my end (I even ran out of recording space at the end!). That being said Chris is another GIFTED dog handler and trainer.
