Biden-Harris Govt Forgives $4.7 Billion in Ukrainian Loans.

The Biden-Harris government has moved to forgive approximately $4.7 billion in U.S. loans to Ukraine. During a press briefing on Wednesday, Miller indicated that this decision was aligned with legal provisions but noted that Congress retains the authority to reverse it.

This recent development is part of a broader pattern of financial and military support from the U.S. to Ukraine, with the government’s total expenditure nearing $60 billion. In April, Congress passed legislation that included $9.4 billion in loan forgiveness for Ukraine as part of a package allocating $61 billion for military resources and governmental operations.

Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) introduced a motion to block further loan forgiveness.

As President Biden approaches the conclusion of his term, he stands accused of attempting to prolong the conflict at almost any cost. Biden has boosted financial and military aid, positioning the U.S. as the single most critical ally in the war.

President-elect Donald Trump has indicated plans to pursue a peace agreement soon after taking office on January 20. This stands in contrast to recent actions from the departing government, which include approving missile strikes within Russia and the deployment of anti-personnel landmines in Ukraine. These moves have led to heightened tensions and threats of retaliation from Russia.

WEIRD: AOC Really Wants Dudes in Her Bathroom.

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is publicly defending Delaware Democrat Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender person elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, while criticizing a GOP-backed effort to restrict bathroom use in Congress and on federal property to the users corresponding biological sex.

The proposal, introduced by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), aims to prohibit transgenders from using restrooms that do not align with their biological sex on federal property. Ocasio-Cortez condemned the proposed restrictions in an interview on Wednesday.

The New York Democrat argued that the measures lack a practical means of enforcement and would create situations where women and girls could face invasive scrutiny over their gender identity. She accused Mace and her Republican colleagues of using the issue to fundraise rather than protect individuals, urging House members to reject the measure.

“It’s disgusting and everybody, no matter how you feel on this issue, should reject it completely,” she said. “What are they doing? They’re doing this so that Nancy Mace can make a buck and send a text and fundraise off of an email.”

“They’re not doing this to protect people; they’re endangering women, they’re endangering girls of all kinds, and everybody should reject it,” Ocasio-Cortez concluded.


Mace dismissed Ocasio-Cortez’s comments, rejecting the spurious claims that the proposal endangers women.

Meanwhile, Speaker Mike Johnson has announced single-sex facilities in House office buildings and the Capitol will be restricted to those of the appropriate biological sex. McBride says he will abide by this determination.

Zelensky Admits He Cannot Take Crimea Back.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky now openly acknowledges that reclaiming Crimea by military means is not feasible, marking a shift in Ukraine’s strategy. In an interview with U.S. media, Zelensky stated that Ukraine could not bear the human cost of attempting to take back Crimea through force, stressing the need for diplomatic approaches to restore Ukrainian sovereignty over the region.

Zelensky reiterated Ukraine’s legal stance, refusing to recognize any occupied territory, including Crimea, as Russian. Crimea, which is majority Russian by population, has been under Russian control since 2014, following a referendum that Ukraine and much of the international community do not recognize as valid.

“We cannot spend dozens of thousands of our people so that they perish for the sake of Crimea coming back,” Zelensky said, expressing his hope that the peninsula can be “brought back diplomatically.”

Discussing future U.S. support for the Ukrainian military, Zelensky admitted that he does not believe the war with Russia can be won without American aid: “If they will cut, I think we will lose,” he said.

“Of course, anyway, we will stay and we will fight. We have production, but it’s not enough to prevail. And I think it is not enough to survive,” he added.

Migrant Caravan 1500-Strong Advances Through Mexico.

A caravan of approximately 1,500 migrants, primarily from Central and South America, has formed in southern Mexico with the aim of reaching the United States before January. This timeline aligns with the inauguration of President-elect Donald J. Trump, who intends to significantly increase border security measures. The group, comprising men, women, and children, has moved through Tapachula, a city near the Mexico-Guatemala border where many migrants remain without permission to proceed further.

The caravan’s exact crossing point into the U.S. remains unspecified. Matamoros, close to Brownsville, Texas, represents the southernmost U.S. border crossing. To reach this point, an adult migrant traveling on foot would require approximately 16 days of continuous walking. Participants in the caravan believe that traveling in large groups provides safety and complicates detainment by immigration authorities.

Some migrants rely on obtaining rides to ease their passage, while others undertake the journey on foot under challenging conditions. Yotzeli Peña, a Venezuelan migrant, expressed hopes of securing quicker appointments to enter the U.S. before Trump’s administration takes office, suggesting the process would be simpler under the Biden government.

President-elect Trump has pledged strict border control, citing a rise in illegal crossings during Biden’s term. Trump’s plans include a mass deportation initiative and the appointment of South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem as Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, with Tom Homan designated as “Border Czar.” Additionally, Trump aims to terminate parole programs currently in place that allow migrants entry under expanded pathways.

Upcoming border administration change might prompt a migrant rush. Recent government measures allowed migrants to use the CBP One app to book U.S. entry appointments, initially available in northern Mexico but now expanded to southern regions like Tapachula.

NEWSPEAK: ‘Sacrifice’ Now Means ‘Enjoy,’ ‘Ban’ Now Means ‘Upgrade,’ According to Lib Climate Group.

A far-left climate change group has spent millions of dollars in a bid to help climate activists sound like human beings when interacting with other people. Potential Energy Coalition launched the “Talk Like a Human” campaign, which suggests activists use terms such as “extreme weather” and “overheating” in place of “climate change” and “warming.”

Additionally, it promotes positive language like “enjoy” over “sacrifice” when discussing the future impacts of climate actions. The coalition emphasizes localized language, suggesting activists talk about pollution rather than the global scope of climate change.

Potential Energy draws on substantial financial backing, including $17.5 million from the Windward Fund between 2021 and 2022. By 2023, this support increased by an additional $13 million. The group also reportedly received nearly $2 million for consulting services from the Windward Fund in 2020 and 2021.

In collaboration with Climate Power and the League of Conservation Voters, Potential Energy led a significant advertising campaign, spending over $10 million to urge action on climate policy by Joe Biden and Congress. This initiative coincided with the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022, which committed funds to climate change efforts. That year, the coalition reported $38.6 million in revenue, marking substantial growth from 2021.

Climate change extremists have a history of alienating the regular public, with groups like Just Stop Oil being very unpopular in the United Kingdom for their blocking of roads and attacks on classical art and monuments. In Germany, a group called “Last Generation” was declared a criminal organization last year for engaging in similar actions.

British Preschool Principal Arrested in DC Over Disturbing Video Request.

A British-born teacher who heads an expensive preschool has been arrested in a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) sting operation after allegedly trying to solicit pornographic material involving a child. James Stewart Carroll, 55, appeared in court on Tuesday to face charges of attempted coercion and enticement of a minor. He could be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.

Carroll has been at the helm of the National Child Research Center, an institution requiring an annual fee of tens of thousands of dollars, since 2018. The FBI began investigating Carroll in September after being alerted by Discord staff over illicit activities.

Using the username “CircumcisedLondonGay,” he allegedly uploaded an image depicting two minors, resulting in further investigation. Federal authorities traced Carroll’s online activities back to his residence, enabling them to initiate contact with him through an undercover FBI agent.

Throughout conversations on Discord, Carroll reportedly expressed a specific interest in boys aged between eight and 12. Subsequently, pretending to be a separated father, the FBI agent prompted Carroll to request specific videos of abuse, culminating in his arrest.

Carroll’s arrest comes just months after a Canadian LGBTQ pride group leader was also arrested for possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material (CSAM).

The head of the Maryland LGBT Democrats was also exposed in a sting operation this year by child predator hunter Alex Rosen. Democrat Michael Knaapen allegedly expressed a desire to rape a child.

Portland Settles for $400K with Antifa Extremist Over 2020 Riot Arrest.

A Portland man is poised to receive a $400,000 settlement from the city following his arrest during a 2020 protest. Dustin Brandon Ferreira, 40, known as “Wheels,” claims he experienced excessive force by police during a demonstration in north Portland. The protest, which was part of a larger series of anti-police demonstrations in the city, saw Ferreira taken into custody on charges that were later dismissed, according to court records.

Ferreira, who uses a wheelchair due to brittle bone disease, alleges that former police Sgt. Justin Damerville used excessive force during the arrest process. The civil suit claims Damerville kicked Ferreira’s wheelchair, forcefully spun it around, and detained him with zip ties. Ferreira argues his arrest was unjust as he did not comply with dispersal orders due to his physical constraints.

Former Sgt. Damerville, in court declarations, maintained that Ferreira was arrested for refusing to comply with several dispersal orders issued after the assembly was declared unlawful. The charges initially brought against Ferreira, including second-degree disorderly conduct and interfering with an officer, were dropped a day later by Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt, who had declined to pursue numerous similar protest-related cases. Schmidt is one of many far-left district attorneys whose campaigns have been backed by radical progressive billionaire George Soros.

Jason Kafoury, Ferreira’s attorney, filed the complaint citing state laws safeguarding vulnerable individuals, suggesting the potential for tripled damages if misconduct is proven. Kafoury indicated this might contribute to the substantial settlement expected from the city, which is slated for a City Council vote this week.

The Portland city attorney’s office stated the city has paid over $3 million in settlements relating to police actions during the 2020 protests.

Texas Offers 1,400 Acres for Migrant Detention Center.

The Texas General Land Office (GLO) has proposed leasing land for a detention facility to the incoming administration of President-elect Donald J. Trump. Commissioner Dawn Buckingham is offering a 1,400-acre tract in Starr County, Texas, intended for the processing and detention of violent criminal migrants.

Buckingham, who says she is in communication with Trump and his presidential transition team, indicated readiness to collaborate with federal agencies like the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to facilitate what she described as a significant deportation initiative. The land in question was acquired by the Texas GLO in October and is situated near the state’s border with Mexico.

In the past, land ownership issues have hampered federal law enforcement activities at the border and, in some instances, allowed illicit activities to continue unabated. The acquisition is part of a broader strategy to bolster security, which includes constructing a 1.5-mile border wall segment along the property’s Rio Grande frontage. This development follows recent GLO initiatives, such as designating a strategically important island along the Rio Grande as state property to disrupt smuggling routes utilized by cartels.

President-elect Trump has hinted at the potential use of military forces to support his border control measures, especially regarding the arrest and separation of members of violent criminal gangs.

Previously, Buckingham’s efforts have included collaborations with Texas law enforcement agencies to curb illegal activities on state lands. Her ongoing initiatives demonstrate the GLO’s active participation in supporting Texas’s role in federal immigration policies. The ranch identified for the facility is approximately 20 miles east of a site previously targeted for cartel disruption operations.

Suspected Tren de Aragua Member Robs Bragg Prosecutor in Her Building.

An illegal alien associated with the notorious Tren de Aragua gang was arrested in New York after robbing the apartment of a local Manhattan prosecutor. The suspect, identified as 25-year-old Brandon Simosa, is accused of breaking into the apartment of a Manhattan prosecutor, stealing her belongings, and committing a lewd act. The incident occurred at approximately 2 AM on Sunday, November 17, near 44th Street and Ninth Avenue.

The New York Police Department reports that Simosa followed a 38-year-old woman into her building, where he demanded money and seized credit cards and a cell phone from her bag. The victim, an employee of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office, has not been named.

Police allege the illegal performed a lewd act before fleeing the scene. He was captured on Tuesday evening near a former hotel repurposed as a migrant shelter. Despite frequenting the area, authorities identified him as homeless at the time of his arrest.

Simosa is charged with several offenses, including sexually motivated robbery and burglary, grand larceny, possession of stolen property, and drug-related charges.

Law enforcement sources have linked the Row and other shelters in New York City to Tren de Aragua, a notorious gang originally established in Venezuelan prisons. Police attribute a spate of robberies in New York City, particularly those targeting women, to the group’s presence.

Tren de Aragua has been seen operating across the United States under the Biden-Harris regime, taking over apartment buildings in Colorado and extorting the residents for money.

Members of the gang have also been linked to murders in the United States, including a killing in Connecticut and the murder of Laken Riley.

Charlamagne Tha God Calls for Dismissal of Trump’s New York Fraud Case.

Radio host and comedian Charlamagne the God says Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and Democrat-aligned Judge Juan Merchan should acknowledge reality and dismiss the fraud verdict against President-elect Donald J. Trump. Speaking on his radio show on Wednesday, Charlamagne pushed back against Bragg’s assertion that the sentencing in the case should merely be postponed during Trump’s tenure in the White House.

“New York City, just throw the whole thing away, alright? Cut it out. Who are we fooling? Who are we fooling? Nothing’s going to happen to Trump, and nobody wants that retribution that he may deliver hanging over their head. Just—he won the election. It is what it is,” the radio host and entertainer said. “Cut ties, sever your losses, throw the whole case away. Come on. Who are we fooling, y’all? Who are you fooling, like seriously?”

“And if you push it back for four years, that might give him more reason to stay, OK? … He is the same person who told his voting base, ‘Just vote one more time, you’ll never have to vote again.’ All right, wink wink. OK? Come on,” he added.

In a court filing yesterday, Bragg indicated his office would prefer to proceed with sentencing or adjourn the case until after Trump leaves the presidency in four years. Judge Merchan appears open to the adjournment and has set a hearing on the matter for next week.

Meanwhile, also on Wednesday, attorneys for President-elect Trump filed a letter asking that they have until December 20 to file a motion to dismiss. The letter argues that the Constitution, the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity, and the interests of a smooth presidential transition require the verdict to be thrown out.
