Over 100 House Dems Refuse to Vote for Resolution Condemning Antisemitism.

More than 100 Democratic members of the House of Representatives withheld their vote for a resolution denouncing antisemitism on Tuesday. The passage of H. Res. 894 brought forward by Republican Rep. David Kustoff of Tennessee saw 13 Democrats vote “no,” numerous others chose to vote “present” or abstained from voting. With a total result of 311-14, the motion prevailed, the single opposing Republican vote came from GOP Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, as reported by the Clerk of the House of Representatives.

Demonstrations in support of Palestinians continue worldwide, in reaction to Israel’s response to the October 7 terror attacks by Hamas that resulted in the death of more than 1,400, with approximately 200 people taken hostage. Particularly vocal were New York City’s Astoria neighborhood protestors, a borough with a demographic mix of residents from Morocco, Egypt, the Palestinian Territories, amongst other nations.

Prominent “no” votes comprised members from the left-wing group in the House of Representatives, “the Squad.” Among these were Democratic Reps. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Cori Bush of Missouri, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts. Democratic Rep. Pramila Jayapal of Washington, conflicted with a CNN host over Hamas’ actions during the terrorist attack, also voted “no.” Other Democrats chose to vote “present,” including Reps. Hakeem Jeffries of New York, James Clyburn of South Carolina, Barbara Lee of California, Andre Carson of Indiana, and Jamie Raskin of Maryland. Democratic Reps. Nancy Pelosi of California, Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, and Dean Phillips of Minnesota did not participate in the vote.

Judge Voids Democrat Election Win Due To Fraudulent Ballots.

A Louisiana judge has declared the results of a local run-off election in the state to be “void” due to evidence of voter fraud. The November 18th race for Caddo Parish Sheriff was decided by a one vote margin – with Democrat Henry Whitehorn apparently ‘defeating’ Republican John Nickelson.

Ten days afterwards, however, Nickelson announced he would challenge the results when the parish’s Board of Election Supervisors denied his request for a hand recount.

“Many, dozens at a minimum, in the small sample of ballots we were able to inspect in the short time we had of these certificates had no signatures at all,” Nickelson said at the time. “In other words, ballots had been submitted without a voter signing it.”

The Board of Election Supervisors claimed time constraints prevented any additional scrutiny of the election ballots cast.

Four sitting judges on the state’s Supreme Court were then forced to recuse themselves due to pre-existing relationships with Nickelson, with retired Supreme Court Justice Joseph Bleich being asked to preside over the proceedings instead. Attorneys for Nickelson were able to prove conclusively several ballots were cast illegally by residents who were ineligible to vote or had voted twice by mailing an absentee ballot and casting a ballot on election day.

“This court finds that at least eleven votes should not have been counted in this one-vote-margin election. Because of the constitutional guarantee of secrecy of these ballots, it is impossible to determine the result of this election,” Bleich wrote in his ruling. “For the foregoing reasons, a new runoff election must be ordered.” The earliest a new runoff election can be held is March 23rd.

The National Pulse has previously reported three Democrats are facing voter fraud charges after attempting to rig local races in their respective states

WATCH: Massive Explosion in DC-Area Home As Cops Attempt to Execute Warrant.

A house exploded into flames while the police attempted to execute a search warrant in Arlington, Virginia, on Monday evening. Officers responded to several reports that the suspect fired shots shortly after 5 p.m. as well as discharged a flare gun up to 40 times into the surrounding neighbourhood.

“During the course of the investigation, officers obtained a search warrant for the suspect’s residence and attempted to make contact with the suspect over the telephone and through loudspeakers,” said an Arlington police statement. “The suspect did not respond and remained barricaded inside the residence.”

The explosion occurred at roughly 8:30 p.m., launching fire, smoke, and ash into the air and immediately destroying the property. Three officers sustained minor injuries as a result.

The suspect was not immediately identified by the authorities. Public records suggest the property’s resident was James Yoo, who claims to have been a former Head of Global Security at the U.S. Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS).

Yoo, who names his home address in a LinkedIn post, has posted a series of erratic and accusatory posts online, describing his next-door neighbors as “spies” and claiming: “This is how White people operate and have the luxury of outnumbering all other ‘races’ by almost 7 to 1 in ‘Merica’.

His personal LinkedIn biography makes similar statements such as “U.S. is the world’s biggest TERRORIST,” “F*ck tha police,” and “PURGE ALL SPIES!”

Yoo also created a YouTube channel where he details his efforts to contact the FBI, DOJ, Senate Committee, and Various District Attorneys, arguing that FBI Agents were visiting him at his address in Arlington. One video shows an email he received from the former U.S. Attorney for the Western District of New York, JP Kennedy, in which the judge tells Yoo he was instructed to “stop contacting me and this Office.”

The same neighbor who captured footage of the explosion, Alex Wilson, described Yoo as a social “recluse” who had aluminium foil covering his windows. He also alleges Yoo, who listed his house for sale in 2021, chased off potential buyers with a knife.

It is unknown whether he was at home during the explosion or whether he survived. The police’s investigation is ongoing.

Avian Flu Confirmed in California, 250,000 Birds Euthanized in Sonoma County.

A quarter of a million birds were euthanized in Sonoma County following the confirmation of avian flu at two Bay Area farms. The California Department of Food and Agriculture verified the positive cases of the virus.

Among the affected farms is Sunrise Farms, co-owned by Mike Weber, a third-generation egg farmer from Sonoma County. Over 80,000 chickens from Sunrise Farms had to be euthanized. Weber said a neighboring duck farm had been hit even harder.

“They lost their entire operation, 170,000 ducks, and those ducks are coveted across the state,” he said.

“It’s just been devastating for us, nothing but devastating.”

Weber said the timing of the outbreaks was “suspicious,” coming as an animal rights activist from the ‘Direct Action Everywhere’ group was being sentenced for raiding the farms in 2018 and 2019.

“We are concerned that this was domestic terrorists, and they’ve attacked our food supply,” Weber explained.

The outbreaks also come as California state wildlife agencies are commending the progress of a bird flu vaccine.

Zelensky Admits Counter-Offensive Failure: ‘We Did Not Achieve the Desired Results’.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky had admitted his counter-offensive has failed, and the war is now in a “new phase”.

“We wanted faster results,” the Ukrainian leader said. “From that perspective, unfortunately, we did not achieve the desired results. And this is a fact,” he conceded.

Zelensky explained there is “not enough power to achieve the desired results faster,” complaining his Western sponsors did not give him all the weapons he asked for. He also expressed concerns the Israel-Hamas war is shifting U.S. focus away from his war effort.

“You see, attention equals help. No attention will mean no help. We fight for every bit of attention,” he explained. “Without attention, there may be weakness in Congress.”

The Joe Biden regime already appears to have begun pressing the Ukrainians to come to terms with Russia. Officials in Germany, the European Union’s biggest economy, are assisting them, warning Zelensky “should come to the realization that things cannot go on like this.”

There is an increasing sense that, after the failure of this year’s Ukrainian counter-offensive, the West cannot equip another one.

“We built up this mountain of steel for the counter-offensive. We can’t do that again,” said one now-former U.S. official. “It doesn’t exist.”

WATCH: Mob Targets Jewish-Owned Falafel Shop, Chanting ‘You Can’t Hide!’

An anti-Israel protest turned wildly anti-Semitic in Philadelphia on Sunday evening, with marchers stopping outside a Jewish-owned restaurant, Goldie, chanting accussations of genocide.

Goldie, an affiliate of the CookNSolo group co-owned by Israeli-born Michael Solomonov, was swarmed by hundreds of protesters. Videos shared online depicted the crowd chanting the words, “Goldie, Goldie you can’t hide, we charge you with genocide!”

There is no connection between Goldie and the State of Israel, besides the Jewish link.

Witnesses reported the protesters affixed “Free Palestine” and “This is Genocide” stickers onto the facade of the business. The march was one of the largest demonstrations in support of Gaza in the city, according to the Philadelphia Free Palestine Coalition, the organization behind the march.

Governor Josh Shapiro’s condemned the incident, with U.S. Representative Brendan Boyle also expressing his dismay. In a statement, Boyle criticized any actions targeting businesses simply on account of their Jewish ownership, emphasizing that Philadelphia condemns such harassment and hate. Governor Shapiro affirmed that he had personally offered his support to Solomonov and planned to patronize the restaurant soon.

REVEALED: Hunter Biden’s China-Linked Business Made Direct, Monthly Payments to Joe Biden.

Representative James Comer and the House Oversight Committee have released bank records showing “direct monthly payments” to Joe Biden by the China-linked Owasco PC, his son Hunter’s business entity.

“President Joe Biden claimed there was an absolute wall between his official government duties and his families influence-peddling schemes. This was a lie,” said Rep. Comer in a video statement. “Now, Hunter Biden’s legal team and the White House’s media allies claim Hunter’s corporate entities never made payments directly to Joe Biden. We can officially add this latest talking point to the list of lies,” he continued.

Comer revealed the Committee had uncovered direct payments from Owasco to the elder Biden after subpoenaing bank records.

“Owasco PC made direct monthly payments to Joe Biden. This wasn’t a payment from Hunter Biden’s personal account, but an account for his corporation that received payment from China and other shady corners of the world,” Comer stressed.

“At this moment, Hunter Biden is under investigation by the Department of Justice for using Owasco PC for tax evasion and other serious crimes,” he noted.

“Joe Biden knew about, participated in, and benefited from his family’s influence-peddling schemes,” Comer emphasized, discussing how the then-Vice President was dialed into Hunter’s business meetings.

US ‘Out of Money’ for Ukraine, Says White House.

The United States is almost out of money to give to Ukraine unless Congress agrees to send another financial package, according to a letter written to congressional leaders by the White House’s budget director Shalanda Young on Monday.

The letter states, “Without congressional action, by the end of the year, we will run out of resources to procure more weapons and equipment for Ukraine and to provide equipment from US military stocks.”

“There is no magical pot of funding available to meet this moment. We are out of money – and nearly out of time,” it continues.

“Cutting off the flow of US weapons and equipment will kneecap Ukraine on the battlefield, not only putting at risk the gains Ukraine has made, but increasing the likelihood of Russian military victories,” the letter adds.

The U.S. Congress has already approved over $113 billion in various forms of aid to Ukraine since the start of the war in February last year. Over the past several months, President Biden has encouraged Congress to green-light another spending package that would prove $106 to the country’s so-called foreign policy priorities, including Ukraine.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has similarly announced his intention to send more taxpayer dollars to Ukraine before the end of the year, blaming the House GOP for the delays.

Foreign-Born Population Swells to 49.5 Million Under Biden.

The foreign-born population in the United States, legal and illegal, has surged to at least 49.5 million. The total number, accurate to October, takes foreigners to their highest share of the U.S. population since records began.

The foreign-born population has increased by 4.5 million since Joe Biden was inaugurated, meaning foreigners now account for a greater share of the U.S. population than 25 individual U.S. states. The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), which compiled the figures, believes 2.5 million of these 4.5 million were illegal immigrants.

Importantly, the 4.5 million increase is a net figure, with emigration and deaths among foreign residents subtracted from total arrivals.

Joe Biden appears to be accelerating mass migration even faster than his former boss, Barack Obama. Under the 44th President, whose own father was a Kenyan non-citizen, the foreign-born population grew by 68,000 a month. Biden has increased this to 137,000 a month.

Under Donald Trump, the increase was much lower, at 42,000 a month.

“[Fifteen] percent of the U.S. population is now foreign-born – the largest share on record. The prior record was 14.8 percent, 133 years ago in 1890,” the CIS noted in its report.

“If legal and illegal immigration were to continue at the current level, we project that the total foreign-born population will reach nearly 59 million and 17.3 percent of [the] population by the end of Biden’s second term in December 2028,” they added.

LISTEN: Frasier’s Kelsey Grammer Tells BBC He Still Supports Trump, Paramount+ PR Team Ends Interview.

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has alleged that Paramount+ public relations officers cut short an interview with Frasier star Kelsey Grammer after the award-winning actor reiterated his support for President Donald J. Trump.

Early in the interview – in which Grammer also discussed the murder of his sister and his friendship with co-star Nicholas Lyndhurst –  the Cheers and associated spin-off star said Roseanne Barr inspired the Frasier relaunch. Noting Barr was also a Trump supporter, interviewer Justin Webb later asked if Grammer is still a backer of the 45th President.

“I am, and I’ll let that be the end of it,” Grammer replied with a slight chuckle, before the interview came to an abrupt halt.

Webb explained, afterwards: “I have to say actually Kelsey Grammer himself was perfectly happy to go on talking about it. The Paramount+ PR people, less happy that he talked about it at some length,” said Webb after the pre-recorded interview, suggesting part of their discussion was not aired.

“But I should stress that he was perfectly happy to talk about why he supports Donald Trump and still does in the forthcoming election,” Webb added.

Grammer explained in 2019 that he welcomed Trump as a disruptor, saying did not “think Washington did us any favors for the last 50, 60 years. I think they’ve all been sort of the same party, the same bunch of clowns, the same bunch of really unpleasant people, and I don’t think they’ve been helping anybody but themselves.”
