Is This the Most Honest Thing Hamas Has Ever Said?

Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart claimed on Friday’s edition of PBS News Hour that he knows the actual reason for President Trump’s response to rioting in Los Angeles and for Saturday’s Army parade in Washington. According to him, it is all part of a scheme that will eventually allow Trump to cancel elections. Capehart recalled, “I think they're creating the political conflict because — I interviewed Minnesota State Attorney General Keith Ellison in the run-up to the anniversary, the fifth anniversary of the murder of George Floyd. And he brought up on his own the rumor that the president was going to pardon Derek Chauvin. And the attorney general said that the president might do that as a distraction to larger goals. And one of the larger goals that the attorney general mentioned that has always been in the back of my mind is to create the conditions that would allow the president to invoke the Insurrection Act.”     He continued, “And once the president invokes the Insurrection Act, all sorts of powers are handed to the president, you know, suspending elections, and other things, that, once you open that box, and particularly you open that box with this president and the administration and the yes-people he has around him, there's no going back.” Jumping off the deep end, Capehart concluded, “That is among the reasons why I am so concerned about what we're about to see tomorrow.” The Insurrection Act doesn’t even allow for the suspension of elections. Furthermore, there is a possibility that Saturday’s parade could be cancelled due to lightning storms, but people who aspire to cancel elections usually do not put their dictatorial plans at the mercy of the weather.

A FILLING 45-MINUTE CASSEROLE This taco flavored Frito Pie Casserole is a super simple dish and one that is easily customizable depending on what your family loves. Just a few ingredients and it’ll be ready in only 45 minutes. All the best of the taco flavors topped with crunchy Fritos! If you haven’t tried this combo, I think you might be pleasantly surprised at how good it all works together! If you prefer this more with chili then you will probably love my Chili Frito Pie that can easily be transformed into a casserole like this one. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:  What can I use instead of ground beef? Instead of ground beef, try ground chicken or ground turkey. Either will work just fine. What can I use instead of Fritos? Not wanting to use corn chips? Grab any other chips. Tortilla chips, Ranch or Nacho Cheese Doritos would also work. Can I double this recipe? Yes, you can double this. Depending on the size of your serving dish, you may need to divide it into two dishes, or use a large dish for serving. How long are leftovers good for? You can keep the leftovers in the fridge for up to to 5 days, but the Fritos will get soft the longer they are in the fridge.  INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE) ground beef – yellow onion packet taco seasoning– grab a packet, or make some Homemade Taco Seasoning. You’ll need about 3 Tablespoons to replace the packet. salsa – my favorite store bought salsa is Herdez but I generally only buy it when I can get it on sale or have a coupon so most times it’s just store brand but if you can, try the Herdez! black beans– Don’t like black beans? Just leave them out or try a different bean you enjoy. Rotel with green chiles – this is also optional. You may find the salsa is enough for you. frozen corn – I took a chance and added corn to this the last time I made it since I had some corn in the freezer and we all ended up loving it so it was a nice addition and I added it here. Fritos corn chips – just get the original Fritos, not the Scoops. Those might be a bit too bulky. Alternatively, if you are worried about the corn chips being a bit too crunchy, try smashing them up a bit before using them in this. Mexican shredded cheese – or whatever shredded cheese you love! For topping (use whatever you like here – these are just suggestions): sliced or diced cherry tomatoes, sliced jalapenos, sour cream, guacamole, sliced olives, sliced green onions HOW TO MAKE FRITO PIE CASSEROLE: Preheat the oven to 350° F. To a skillet add the beef and onion. Cook and crumble over medium heat until no longer pink. Add the water and taco seasoning. Simmer for 3 minutes.  Add the salsa, black beans, Rotel, and corn. Stir until combined.  To a 9×13-inch baking dish add 3/4 of the bag of Fritos. Top the chips with 3/4 of the bag of cheese so the chips are coated.  Top the cheese with the meat mixture. Top the meat mixture with the remainder of the cheese. Bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese has melted.  Top the casserole with the remainder of the Fritos, tomatoes, and jalapenos CRAVING MORE RECIPES?  Frito Chili Pie Frito Corn Salad Frito Taco Salad Taco Bell Mexican Pizza Casserole Dorito Taco Casserole Cornbread Taco Bake Bisquick Taco Casserole Print Frito Pie Casserole A layered, taco flavored casserole with ground beef, onions, salsa, Rotel, beans, corn, and corn chips to make a fantastic dinner casserole!
