Iran's 'Axis of Resistance' Has Been a Failure

The President Announces Visit to Hurricane Helene Devastation

When Kyle Rittenhouse shot three men — who were all strangers to each other — he was unaware that each man had a criminal history. Rittenhouse was simply defending himself and Kenosha from a left-wing mob. “What are the odds of three strangers with crazy perverted independent criminal histories being together like that on the street?” Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” asks. “It seems like that’s an insane amount of creeps and criminals to be gathered in a small area all at the same time,” she continues, noting that “most things involving leftists tend to attract a pretty nasty crowd.” Now the suspected would-be Trump shooter's son, Oran Routh, was arrested on Tuesday after police searched his Greensboro, North Carolina, home “in connection with an investigation, unrelated to child exploitation.” Allegedly, the police found “hundreds of files depicting child sexual abuse.” “It’s really an odd twist in this saga that nobody saw coming,” Wheeler mocks, explaining that Routh claimed his father hated president Trump and was quoted saying that “every reasonable person does.” “The son sounded just like his father, who sounded like an indoctrinated leftist activist, who sounded exactly like the talking heads in the mainstream media,” she adds. However, as always, it’s innocent until proven guilty — as it should be. “We shouldn’t just believe the authorities automatically,” Wheeler explains. “We know for a fact that the Department of Justice lies for political and self-protecting purposes all the time, but that doesn’t seem to pass the smell test here.” “If you dabble in evil ideology, evil leftist ideology, it will invariably lead you to evil of the most twisted kind.”Want more from Liz Wheeler?To enjoy more of Liz’s based commentary, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.

Democratic President Joe Biden didn't ease concerns about his mental capacity when asked to comment about military strikes in Yemen. 'Never forget the Democratic Party hid this. Kamala hid this.' Biden shuffled over to reporters shouting questions at him while he was boarding Air Force One on the tarmac at Dover Air Force Base on Sunday. He responded to a reporter asking him to comment about Israeli strikes on sites controlled by Iran-backed Houthi militants in Yemen. “I’ve spoken to both sides. They gotta settle the strike. I’m supporting the collective bargaining effort. I think they’ll settle the strike,” Biden said. The president had apparently mixed up the Yemeni strikes with a looming union strike by dock workers against automation. The massive strike is scheduled to begin Monday at midnight and includes about 45,000 dock workers at ports on the East Coast and the Gulf Coast. Video of the interaction was posted to social media by the Republican Party, where it garnered more than 2.7 million views. Many pounced on the incident to mock and ridicule Biden. "Listen to this. He should be feeding pigeons on a park bench. We have no president," replied radio host Gerry Callahan. "The Houthi Local 1645 is known to be the toughest union to negotiate with," joked commentator Joel Petlin. "You’re kidding. It’s funny but it’s also very scary. Never forget the Democratic Party hid this. Kamala hid this," read another critical tweet. Others defended Biden by pointing out the noise on the tarmac might have prevented him from hearing the question clearly. The union Biden may have been referring to is demanding a total ban on automation on gates, trucks, and cranes. The strike could cost billions depending on how long it lasts, and Biden has the power under the 1947 Taft-Hartley Act to suspend the strike. However, he has signaled that he is unlikely to do so.

NCAA volleyball player Brook Slusser said she doesn't agree with having a male athlete on her team and knows it's not right. Controversy has swirled at San Jose State University since it was revealed that the undefeated team features a 6-foot-1-inch male player named Blaire Fleming, born Brayden. In response to this situation, Slusser has joined a lawsuit against the NCAA that asks the collegiate body to stop allowing male athletes to compete against females and to keep them out of female locker rooms. The lawsuit stems from women's aquatic competitions that included Lia Thomas, the "trans woman" who dominated the 2022 NCAA swimming championships. In an exclusive interview with Blaze News, Slusser explained that she had "no idea" that she would be playing with a male when she transferred to San Jose State University from Alabama last year. While Slusser noticed during her first practice at SJSU that there was "something different" about Fleming, she never imagined that there would be a man on the team. "The way I was raised, I've never had to second-guess if someone is male or female," the Texan said. "The power [of Blaire] was just something that I'd never seen before." "I was like, 'That's insane, but okay,'" she laughed. Slusser said she wasn't going to ask questions about why Fleming was hitting so hard because, at that point, there was no reason for her to believe there was a male on the team. Rooming with a man When she got to SJSU, Slusser said her coach told her there were "three girls on the team that are looking for a roommate." "That would be amazing," Slusser recalled thinking, not knowing that one of those alleged girls was Fleming. The senior saw it as an opportunity to get to know her teammates while living off campus in an apartment. She jumped at the chance for the experience. After rooming with Fleming on road trips, Slusser became suspicious as to why she was routinely being roomed with him despite her teammates rotating with other people. She later found out that Fleming was asked specifically whom he "felt comfortable" to room with and that Slusser was one of those people. This was just one instance in which the male athlete's feelings seemed to be placed over the rest of the team. "I found it very odd that everyone else was getting switched around on away trips and I somehow kept getting roomed with the same person. Usually you get switched around ... and I just kept getting roomed with [Fleming]." After two months at SJSU, Slusser said she found out that Fleming is a man, at which point everything started to make sense. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Brooke (@brookeslusser04) However, staff at SJSU have seemed completely disinterested in how the majority of the women's team feel about the situation and instead have chosen to focus on Fleming's well-being. "We've had meetings, and it's a lot of just checking in on Blaire. ... We were like 'what about us?'" Slusser said. "It's mostly just saying you can't be the person to ... identify Blaire's gender identity. 'Blaire needs to do that for himself,'" the girls are told. Slusser said the most frustrating aspect of the ordeal is that team management knows how much this bothers the female players and that for seniors, their last chances to play volleyball at a high level are being whittled away. "Everyone above you is telling you you shouldn't be talking for Blaire, you need to make sure the other person is okay; and [the management] is not thinking about, 'Are we okay?'" Slusser explained. When asked whether Fleming is in the locker room with the women and if it's uncomfortable, Slusser simply said, "Everyone's in the locker room." "So ... that's that. It's a team locker room," Slusser said with a look of disappointment. 'I fully support Boise State's decision not to play us. If I was in their shoes, I'd probably do the same thing.' Canceled games Two teams have already pulled out of games against SJSU: Southern Utah and Boise State. Neither team has provided a specific reason for the forfeits, but Slusser said the reason is obvious. "I think we all know the reason the games are canceled," Slusser said. "I fully support Boise State's decision not to play us. If I was in their shoes, I'd probably do the same thing." Nevada, which plays SJSU on October 26, is another team that could potentially back out as well. The mother of Nevada's Carissa Chainey recently gave an interview to the Daily Signal and remarked that she is "scared for every single player" who plays against Fleming, due to the higher risk of injury. Slusser said her own family has been about as supportive as possible, adding that she couldn't ask for better parents. "My parents know this lawsuit is a lot bigger than just me," Slusser said. "This is a way I can use my voice." "What I'm going through ... is something, to my bones, I don't agree with. It's not right." Slusser concluded by saying that joining the lawsuit wasn't a difficult choice for her in the end, as she has felt the need to speak out on others' behalf for most of her life. The college athlete strongly asserted that she wants to help make sure younger female athletes don't have to go through the same thing. "Right now it's just about showing up to be the best you can for the team," she added. Slusser hopes other athletes will join the lawsuit. "You might be surprised." Like Blaze News?

Hillary Clinton is apparently not the only failed Democratic presidential candidate presently frustrated over the political establishment's waning narrative control. Former Biden-Harris climate czar John Kerry noted during a World Economic Forum panel discussion on trade and so-called sustainability last week that the First Amendment remains an obstacle to being able to properly clamp down on so-called disinformation. According to the WEF's "Global Risks Report 2024," the greatest threats facing humanity over the next two years are "misinformation and disinformation" and bad weather. Early in the conversation about sustainability, Kerry — to whom President Joe Biden just months ago awarded the Medal of Freedom — bemoaned the loss of a "truth arbiter" in the U.S., noting that "there's no one who defines what the facts really are." Having an authority equipped to decisively correct would-be climate heresiarchs would apparently help expedite elites' planned transition away from relatively cheap, stable, and reliable fossil fuels. 'If it wasn't for that pesky Constitution, these commies could just roll right over us.' When responding to a question about "tackling climate misinformation," Kerry said, "Everybody's wrestling with that right now." "I think the dislike of and anguish over social media is just growing and growing and growing," said the former Obama secretary of state. "It's part of our problem, particularly in democracies, in terms of building consensus around any issue. It's really hard to govern today." "The referees we used to have to determine what's a fact and what isn't a fact have kind of been eviscerated, to a certain degree," continued Kerry, likely cognizant of the humiliation that regime-friendly fact-checkers have suffered in recent months. "And people go and self-select where they go for their news or for their information, and then you get into a vicious cycle." Kerry told the other World Economic Forum panelists, "You know there's a lot of discussion now about how you curb those entities in order to guarantee that you're going to have some accountability on facts, et cetera. But, look, if people go to only one source, and the source they go to is sick, and, you know, has an agenda and they're putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block to the ability to be able to just, you know, hammer it out of existence." Kerry indicated that in the face of this constitutional obstacle, which Bill Gates recently intimated was only really a notional obstacle, "What we need is to ... win the ground, win the right to govern by hopefully winning enough votes that you're free to to be able to implement change." Kerry characterized the 2024 election as an opportunity to "break the fever" and "bring ourselves back to a regular order." The Biden-Harris administration has worked feverishly in recent years to control the flow of information and decide for Americans what qualifies as facts. During the pandemic, for instance, the Democratic administration leaned on social media companies to suppress and sometimes outright censor Americans' free speech, even if the speech flagged by supposed arbiters of truth — such as those at the Stanford Internet Observatory — was accurate and possibly life-saving. The desire among Democrats to implement arbiters of truth was not unique to the pandemic. The Biden-Harris administration also established an outfit in 2022 for the purpose of "countering misinformation related to homeland security." The Department of Homeland Security's Disinformation Governance Board, which was derided by many as a federal "Ministry of Truth," was fortunately short-lived. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. responded to Kerry's comments, writing, "John Kerry is correct. The 1st Amendment DOES stand as a major roadblock to them right now." Country music star John Rich said, "Yea, if it wasn't for that pesky Constitution, these commies could just roll right over us. Thank you Founding Fathers, for knowing someday we'd have tyrants like John Kerry to deal with." Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) wrote, "John Kerry and other elite democrats hate the Constitution. They see it as a road block to ruling over people. As a matter of fact, that is why it was written." The arbiters of truth for whom the former secretary of state longs would likely have taken issue with Argentine President Javier Milei's speech to the UN General Assembly last week, in which he characterized the brand of climate goals and other globalist initiatives favored by Kerry as "nothing more than a super-national socialist government program that aims to solve the problems of modernity with solutions that undermine the sovereignty of nation-states and violate the right to life, liberty, and property of individuals."
