Secretary of State Antony Blinken is a despicable con artist who is organizing Arab and European countries‚ along with the United Nations‚ around the backs of our Congress and Israel to carve up the Jewish state and gift the Palestinians massive swaths of Israel’s country‚ including Judea and Samaria. That is his response to the Palestinians’ murderous slaughter of Israelis! Blinken is using Israel’s need for weapons to threaten and blackmail Israel diplomatically and impose his policies and will. Utterly contemptible. This is not how foreign policy is conducted — as a weapon against our great ally in the middle of a war. Blinken is driving the Barack Obama-Thomas Friedman agenda in the Middle East‚ continuing to rearm Iran‚ prop up Palestinian terrorism in Gaza and the West Bank‚ sabotage Israel’s war effort‚ and deceive the American people. Blinken is a dangerous ideologue and a stupid man‚ as John McCain warned years ago. He is obsessed and unrestrained. He was also the architect of America’s disastrous and deadly surrender in Afghanistan but has no capacity for circumspection or recalculation. He’s a committed ideologue. Blinken is an American Marxist who appointed an Iran-supporting stooge and longtime friend‚ Robert Malley‚ to negotiate with Tehran. Malley is now under federal investigation and has already lost his security clearance. Indeed‚ the fact that the Biden administration introduced an Iranian spy ring into our government is either underreported or totally ignored. It makes the Alger Hiss case look like small potatoes. It’s no surprise that this administration has no plan or has made no actual effort to stop Iran from finishing its nuclear missile project. This is the greatest scandal of our times‚ with unimaginable ramifications. Yet again‚ I’m calling on congressional Republicans and any patriots with a platform and voice to speak out and demand answers and accountability.

A Florida man was arrested and reportedly admitted to throwing at his wife a bag of Oreo cookies that knocked her over. The Lake County Sheriff's Office arrested John Sandoval‚ a 70-year-old male who was allegedly upset at his wife about their coffee maker not having any water in it‚ deputies said‚ according to Fox 35 Orlando.The married couple of 40 years were sitting at the table when they began arguing about the coffee maker‚ a report allegedly described. Sandoval then became "aggressive" and threw an entire package of Oreo cookies that hit his wife in the chest‚ which caused her to fall. A standard Oreo resealable package is 14.3 ounces‚ which equates to about .89 pounds.The husband also allegedly put his hands around his wife's throat while she was on the floor but reportedly did not restrict her airways.Police did not see any "obvious injuries" on the woman either‚ according to the police affidavit.The event went unreported after taking place on a Saturday until the woman's daughter encouraged her to call police the next day in order to press charges.Sandoval's wife is at least 65 years old‚ per his subsequent charge of felony domestic battery on a person 65 years or older. He was then arrested and taken to Lake County Jail. The local Fox outlet reported that Sandoval had a prior conviction for misdemeanor simple battery in 2005.According to OutKick‚ Sandoval later spoke with deputies and reportedly admitted to throwing the package of Oreos at wife. He allegedly added that he thought he had thrown the cookies at the woman's head‚ not her chest‚ but wasn't completely sure as to what had happened.He also noted‚ according to the police affidavit‚ that he had no recollection of putting his hands around his wife's throat.Like Blaze News?

If you didn’t already know‚ the Marvel Cinematic Universe is going downhill‚ and the latest film‚ “The Marvels‚” which was released on November 10‚ is only adding to the problem. “I've seen roadside taco stands with better quality control than whatever the heck they've got going on over at Marvel right now‚” says Lauren Chen. People have waited over four years for the release of this film‚ as it’s the sequel to “Captain Marvel‚” which came out in 2019. Unfortunately‚ the anticipation and excitement leading up to “The Marvels'” release will likely be replaced with disappointment and frustration. For starters‚ the movie is “all over the place‚” says Lauren‚ adding that the confusing plotline “gave [her] a headache.” Further‚ because science fiction/fantasy movies are exactly that – fiction – they don’t have to make sense scientifically‚ but they do have to make sense within the context of the film. Lauren points to the infinity stones from “Avengers: Infinity War” and “Avengers: Endgame.” There’s nothing scientifically sound about the concept of powerful space gemstones‚ and yet‚ the stones drove the plotline of the films and likely contributed to the fact that the movies are Marvel’s top two performers. “The Marvels‚” however‚ has the MCU’s lowest grossing film opening in history‚ perhaps because the fake science‚ which should have been “fun and ... cohesive‚” was “some of the dumbest [Lauren has] ever seen.” “I‚ still‚ while watching this baby-faced actress blast a hole in the sky creating a portal to another planet in order to suck out the other planets’ air‚ could not help but think to myself‚ ‘Wow‚ this is really dumb‚”’ she sighs. There’s also the issue of “emotional resonance” to consider. Lauren recalls a moment in the film that should have been “a pretty heavy moment‚” considering hundreds of civilian Skrulls were left to die on an uninhabitable planet‚ but despite the tragic circumstances‚ “the film moves on from that pretty quickly.” “I mean there's literally just two minutes where it's kind of like‚ ‘Oh‚ sucks to suck‚”’ says Lauren. But that’s not the only scene that frivolously glosses over a tragedy. There’s another point in the film when “basically you just watch a genocide unfold‚” and yet “the characters [don’t] seem to give a crap that entire planets and populations [are] being just wiped out‚” criticizes Lauren.And somehow it gets even worse. For example‚ in addition to the brushed-aside tragedies‚ there’s a poor attempt at comedy when some of the characters arrive on Aladna — the singing planet‚ where the language “is singing in English‚” and the residents “don’t understand you” unless you sing‚ scoffs Lauren. Suddenly‚ there’s “a 10 minute ... musical number‚” featuring “Brie Larson not only singing but also magically changing outfits‚” says Lauren‚ adding that the scene “felt like a throwaway episode of a daytime weekend TV show.” There were other parts of the movie‚ too‚ that made Lauren realize “the writers could not give a flying F— about the film” like adorable kittens who eat scientists and throw them up later‚ a trio of “superheroes” who interact like “work colleagues‚” and the fact that “there’s basically no men in the film.” But to get the full details on that‚ you’ll have to watch Lauren’s full review below.

Cellphone video appears to show a Buffalo Bills defensive end hitting a Philadelphia Eagles fan who was heckling Bills players from the stands during Sunday night's game in the City of Brotherly Love — an incident that promises only to deepen Philly sports fans' notorious reputation as rowdy‚ obnoxious trash-talkers.Now‚ they may be known as literal game-changers‚ as an NFL source told the Philadelphia Inquirer that the Bills player in question likely will be fined and probably suspended.What are the details?Video shows four Bills players walking from their bench to the stands to confront an Eagles fan. Bills defensive tackle Jordan Phillips — who stands 6 feet‚ 6 inches tall‚ weighs 341 pounds‚ and wears the number 97 jersey — gets into the face of the fan‚ who continues to yell from the stands while holding what appears to be a Miller Lite beer can.Lawson — who stands 6 feet‚ 3 inches tall‚ weighs 265 pounds‚ and wears the number 90 jersey — is just behind and to the right of Phillips and is seen appearing to strike the fan with his right hand as the hooting and hollering intensify. Content warning: F-bombs and raised middle fingers: — (@) The fan didn't appear to suffer any injury‚ the paper said‚ and the Bills players walked back to their bench after the altercation. If the fan's words managed to damage the Bills' egos‚ the Eagles players delivered the bigger blow‚ coming from behind and beating the visiting Bills 37-34 in overtime.Eagles fan Becca Cavalier‚ who recorded the video‚ told the Buffalo News she believes the confrontation took place during the first quarter."I'm not sure exactly what happened that led to them all coming over‚" Cavalier added to the Buffalo News‚ noting that Phillips "and the fan in the video were chirping at each other a lot the whole game‚ but I couldn't really hear what was being said."The Buffalo News said neither the Bills nor the NFL immediately responded Sunday night when asked for comment. The Inquirer said the Eagles early Monday morning had not responded to its request for comment.Anything else?Eagles fans are well known for their‚ er‚ enthusiasm:About a half-hour before the Eagles faced off against the Kansas City Chiefs in last season's Super Bowl‚ a handful of Eagles fans were caught on video tipping over a car — the kind of thing that happens after a victory; the Eagles lost the Super Bowl.Last season‚ Eagles fans reportedly booed first lady Jill Biden — who grew up nearby in New Jersey and was an honorary captain for the home game — and hollered expletive-laded chants about President Joe Biden.Oh‚ and NFL players in an anonymous poll indicated that Eagles fans are the most obnoxious in the game.Like Blaze News?

Honda recently issued a recall over a missing seatbelt part that could impact over 300‚000 vehicles‚ according to a company press release.Over the weekend‚ the automaker announced that it submitted a safety recall to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration concerning its 2023 and 2024 Accords and HR-Vs. The NHTSA's recall report explained that the "front seat belt pretensioners were assembled without a rivet securing the quick connector and wire plate." The pretensioners tighten the seatbelt upon impact. Therefore‚ seatbelts missing a rivet could fail to properly restrain a passenger in the event of a crash‚ increasing the likelihood of injury‚ the report added."The installation of the rivet was skipped during assembly‚" it noted.The seatbelts failed to comply with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards "Occupant Crash Protection‚" "Seat Belt Assemblies‚" and "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages‚" the NHTSA stated.The automaker plans to notify vehicle owners by mail in January. Impacted seatbelt pretensioners will be replaced by the dealer. Owners who have already paid to complete the repairs may be eligible for reimbursement.Honda reported that it received seven warranty claims as of November 16. The automaker has not received any reports of injury or deaths related to the missing part.The NHTSA's report states that an estimated 1% of 303‚770 vehicles will need to receive replacement parts.A Honda spokesperson told the Associated Press that most of the vehicles are expected only to require an inspection. The spokesperson added that dealers will likely receive replacement parts by the end of November and that consumers are able to take their vehicles to a dealer for an inspection now.The automaker issued a recall earlier this month over bearing failures that could cause the vehicle's engine to stall‚ increasing the risk of fire‚ crashes‚ and injury. The recall impacted nearly 250‚000 Odysseys‚ Pilots‚ Acuras‚ and Ridgelines.Over the summer‚ Honda issued another recall over backup camera failures that impacted 1.2 million vehicles‚ including Pilots and Odysseys."If the [Media Oriented Systems Transport] communication is lost for more than 20 seconds‚ the rearview camera function will fail when the vehicle is in the reverse gear‚ increasing the risk of a crash or injury‚" Honda's recall notice stated.Like Blaze News?

President Joe Biden reportedly apologized to "prominent Muslims" last month for doubting the civilian death toll in Gaza.Last month‚ Biden told reporters that he has "no notion that the Palestinians are telling the truth" about civilian casualties in Gaza. "I'm sure innocents have been killed‚ and it's the price of waging a war‚" Biden explained. "But I have no confidence in the number that the Palestinians are using."The day after Biden made those comments — which drew outrage from the Council on American-Islamic Relations — the president met with Muslims and apologized for his remarks‚ according to the Washington Post.The Post set the scene:Biden met with five prominent Muslim Americans‚ who protested what they saw as his insensitivity to the civilians who were dying. All spoke of people they knew who had been affected by the suffering in Gaza‚ including a woman who had lost 100 members of her family. Biden appeared to be affected by their account."I'm sorry. I'm disappointed in myself‚" Biden told the group in a meeting that lasted more than an hour. "I will do better."Whether Biden was truly contrite or if he was saving face is not clear. But what is clear is that his comments about civilian casualties in Gaza‚ though blunt‚ were not haphazard.That is because the Gaza Ministry of Health‚ which provides the casualty figures‚ is controlled by Hamas‚ and the terrorist group has no incentive to tell the truth. In fact‚ inflating the civilian death toll falsely helps Hamas' propaganda war against Israel. Moreover‚ the casualty figure does not distinguish between civilians and combatants‚ and there is no way to verify Hamas' claims.Importantly‚ the civilian casualty toll is certainly higher than it ought to be because Hamas uses civilians as human shields.Biden‚ according to the Post‚ is struggling to balance his support for Israel — America's No. 1 ally in the Middle East — with administration officials who believe the U.S. needs to tamp down its support. Progressives‚ of course‚ have spent weeks screaming about a ceasefire without offering any concrete long-term solutions to the Israel-Palestine issue.Perhaps the first domino fell on Sunday when National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan did not rule out placing conditions on future U.S. aid to Israel.
