One must ask, "How was a building permit approved in the first place?"

I'm going with: "Bribes."

The Independent: Trump’s Gaza plan involves ‘voluntary’ relocation of Palestinians – and giving them $5,000 each. 

The Gaza Reconstitution, Economic Acceleration and Transformation Trust, otherwise known as the Great Trust, proposes that the 2 million people currently living in Gaza could be paid to be relocated to other countries or secure zones as part of a deal that would also see them receive subsidies to cover four years of rent and a year’s worth of food, The Washington Post reports. 

[.]

The Great Trust blueprint was reportedly drawn up in April by the Boston Consulting Group, run by Israeli-American businessman Michael Eisenberg and Liran Tancman, a former Israeli military intelligence officer, who claim to have taken inspiration from Georges-Eugene Haussmann’s redesign of Paris in the 19th century.

“It’s been an unlucky place for a long time,” Trump said in February. “Being in its presence just has not been good, and it should not go through a process of rebuilding and occupation by the same people that have really stood there and fought for it and lived there and died there and lived a miserable existence there.

“Everybody I've spoken to loves the idea of the United States owning that piece of land, developing and creating thousands of jobs with something that will be magnificent – in a really magnificent area.”

This idea is stupid, dumber than Alligator Alcatraz, a complete waste of time, energy, resources, manpower and money. 

Remember MAGA Bros, U.S. Taxpayers will pay for this $5,000 "relocation" incentive AND the full cost of rebuilding Gaza. Israel won't be paying or contributing anything. They only know how to destroy what's not theirs.

"...[Gaza] an unlucky place for a long time." Has it, Donald? And why is that? 

“Everybody I've spoken to loves the idea of the United States owning that piece of land[.]"  Translation: Trump does whatever Satanyahu tells him to do. 

Nature is beautiful.

Daily Mail: "Blood rain" phenomenon sees landscape washed in red by heavy downfall. 

[In Iran] Floodwater running off the rocks at the tourist attraction created spectacular waterfalls, leaving an eerie trail of red up to the shoreline.

Tour guide hormoz_omid shared the video to Instagram to nearly one million likes and stunned reactions.

The secret 'rainbow island' in the Strait of Hormuz remains largely undisturbed, sparsely inhabited and miles from the Iranian mainland.

The phenomenon is a year-round attraction caused by the high iron oxide content in the volcanic soil.

Those minerals then mix with the sea water to give the shore itself a unique reddish glow.

There's no "blood rain." It's regular rain mixing with the iron oxide and other elements resulting in run-off water that turns red. 

The Old Testament-Only-Resurrection-Denying-Zionists over at ZogTok TikTok and InstaZog are attempting to claim, "This is a sign Jesus is coming back soon! We're in Tribulation!" People claiming this are mentally ill or low-rent sooooshulllll meeeedeeeah  clickbait...or a mixture of both; both very popular groups at ZogTok TikTok and InstaZog.

As The DM story states, this event happens ANNUALLY. God returns annually just to make these waters red? 🤣 !

NO ONE knows when Tribulation begins except God The Father. Anyone claiming to conclusively know otherwise is speaking heresy and is antithetical to Jesus' words and the entire New Testament with, maybe, the exception of The Book of Revelation, which doesn't provide any solid time-frame of when End Days begin. Anyone believing they know or can interpret Scripture and arrive at a conclusive date that they've determined End Times is here isn't to be trusted and their opinions immediately dismissed and ridiculed.

Tomorrow, Chicago dyes their river green for St. Pat's Day. Ermahgerd, a GREEN RIVER?! This can only mean the Irish are returning to become the True New World Order! RUN! It's been The Irish all this time! Who knew? 🤣 

Time to play "Stump CederQ." What is it?

There's one caveat that applies, though. A phrase I remember reading years ago at The Feral Irishman:

...WRONG answers only.

Boris Johnson, World Contender to-date for Most Stupid Comment of The Year.

India Today: Putin would not have embarked on Ukraine war if he were a woman: British PM Boris Johnson.

Russian President Vladimir Putin would not have embarked on a “crazy, macho war” against Ukraine if he were a woman, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said.

In an interview with the German media at the end of the G7 Summit in Schloss Elmau this week, Johnson pointed to Putin’s machismo as a contributory factor in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
[.]
“If Putin was a woman, which he obviously isn’t, if he were, I really don’t think he would have embarked on a crazy, macho war of invasion and violence in the way that he has,” Johnson told broadcaster ZDF.

"Boris is assigning gender identity based on appearance! REEEEE! What he said is typical of the patriarchal sexist heteronormative gender-intolerance! REEEEE! He's saying women can't wage war! REEEEE!"

 

“If Putin was a woman, which he obviously isn’t..." - Brilliant observation Cap'N Obvious.

‘Cracker Jill’ version of ‘Cracker Jack’ to promote women’s sports introduced from Pepsi.

NY Post: Pepsi unveils ‘Cracker Jill’ version of ‘Cracker Jack’ to promote women’s sports.

PepsiCo announced this week it is unveiling new characters named “Cracker Jill” as part of its “Cracker Jack” brand in an effort to promote the accomplishments of women in sports.

“After more than 125 years as one of sport’s most iconic snacks, Cracker Jack is adding a new face to its roster, with the introduction of Cracker Jill to celebrate the women who break down barriers in sports,” PepsiCo said in a press release announcing the new characters from Frito-Lay. “Tapping into the brand’s rich history with America’s favorite pastime, Cracker Jill™ comes to life through five different representations on a series of special-edition bags, which will be available at the start of this year’s baseball season in professional ballparks across the country and through a donation of $5 or more to the Women’s Sports Foundation.”

The company says it will be donating $200,000 to the nonprofit Women’s Sports Foundation to “help girls and women across the country reach their potential in sport and life.”
[.]
The company also released a video of singer Normani belting out a “new spin” on the classic baseball melody “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.”

“Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jill,” Normani sings. “No one can stop you if you have the will.”

Pepsi added that the team heading up the campaign is “fueled by powerful female and non-binary voices.”

This product seems sexist and part of the oppressive heteronormative patriarchy. I mean, where is TransJack?

Glass panel, too big for elevator...let's try it anyway. What could go wrong?

Daily Mail: Inevitable moment huge glass panel shatters as two men try to squeeze it into a lift – but their helper lets go of the open door button.

This is the moment three men in Vietnam tried to take a large glass sheet into a lift only for it to shatter when one of them let go of the open door button.

The video of the disastrous lift ride was posted on social media on May 17.

A man in a white shirt enters the lift before a second man in a black shirt follows him and places a large glass sheet on the floor outside the lift doors.
[.]
...the doors shut with one end of the sheet still sitting the other side of the threshold. A third man is left outside.

The man in the white shirt is unable to reopen the doors and the lift starts descending, forcing the glass up.

The sheet gets caught and sends a cloud of dust into the lift.

Bakery denies serving stingy sandwich.

Newshub: Papakura Bakery denies it served 'stingy' $3.50 sandwich.

An Auckland bakery is denying it served what's been called one of the stingiest sandwiches of all time, a picture of which caused the internet to go berserk.

The Papakura Bakery made headlines after a photo of the sandwich was posted in the Papakura and Takanini Grapevine private Facebook group. The photo showed the sandwich, allegedly purchased from the bakery, containing two measly slivers of meat.
[.]
The bakery strongly denies the sandwich was purchased from them, however.

Legit? Stunt for hits on FB? If this is an actual samich from a bakery that's been in business a while, as it has, one tends to think this would have surfaced earlier. Color me skeptical. 

DEMS Triggered by Trump 4th of July speech. Hoyer, McGollum and Grijalva send letter attacking event.

There would be no political entertainment value if not for the DEMS. It takes nothing to trigger these people.

The May 13, 2019 screen cap is from The Jeff Bezos Peoples' Republic:

This issue resurfaced, not-at-all coincidentally in The Jeff Bezos Peoples' Republic via The Duuluth News-Tribune: House Democrats attack Trump's plans to speak at Fourth of July celebration.

House Democratic leaders are protesting President Donald Trump's decision to place himself at the center of the national Fourth of July celebration on the Mall, saying his planned speech at the Lincoln Memorial would waste taxpayer dollars and impart a partisan flavor to what has traditionally been an apolitical event.

In a letter sent Tuesday to the president, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md. - joined by Raúl Grijalva, D-Ariz., chairman of the Committee on Natural Resources, and Betty McCollum, D-Minn., chairwoman of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Interior, Environment and Related Agencies - said the event "could create the appearance of a televised, partisan campaign rally on the Mall at public expense."

Did DEMS say they're concerned about wasting taxpayers dollars? Their sanctimony truly has no boundaries. It makes you feel secure, doesn't it, that these Patriotic DEMS have a watchful eye on our money that they spend.

The Daily Signal: Past 4th of July speeches given by presidents. Why, Bill Clinton, JFK, FDR and others are among them! And...that pretend president Kenyan guy Pbama who occupied the White House for eight years.

QUARTZ: Elegant July 4th speeches by past presidents of both parties remind us of what makes America great.

The two-page letter signed by Hoyer, McGollum, Grijalva (who dis?)

Steny Hoyer signs his name; his biggest achievement in over 50 years.

Give the speech as planned,President Trump, from the Lincoln Memorial on July 4. The End.

Penis-lawn mowing greets Trump in UK.

In your interest, consider this NSFW:

The Guardian: Eighteen-year-old Ollie Nancarrow mowed a giant phallus into a field to greet Donald Trump as the US president flew into Stansted airport this morning.

[Nancarrow isn't] the first to employ such imagery[.]
[.]
As Air Force One approached Stansted on Monday morning, it is nice to think of President Trump looking down to see his first words of welcome from the United Kingdom, “OI TRUMP”, mown into the grass of an Essex field beside a penis and testicles.

I'd take that welcoming as a compliment. The President probably did too. Now, had it been Hillary, I wonder if anyone would have bothered mowing a giant...Smiley Face...yeah...into the lawn?

Mesa driver busted using mannequin in HOV lane.

AZ Family: Man driving in HOV lane with mannequin.

A driver was busted on an east Valley freeway Wednesday for reportedly driving in the HOV lane with a mannequin in the car.

The Arizona Department of Public Safety stopped the man along Loop 202 near Alma School Road.

The man was alone in the car, but had a dummy in the front passenger seat. The female mannequin wore a baseball cap and sunglasses. She was even strapped into the seat with a seat belt.

Good thing the dummy was wearing the seat belt. Mannequin Lives Matter!

California considers ban on complimentary hotel shampoo.

...And then, only outlaws will have small bottles of shampoo.

Daily Mail: California plan to ban free hotel shampoo.

A bill passed in California on Monday could ban hotels in the state from supplying guests with small complimentary bottles of shampoo, conditioner, lotion and other care products.

The move comes as part of an effort to stem plastic consumption and also limit plastic waste thrown out by guests and hotel operators.
[.]
If the bill becomes a law, lodging establishments would be inspected regularly and any owners or operators found to in breach of the statute would face hefty fines.

Maybe this bill simply seeks a method to prevent Joe Biden from inhaling their hair.

Next up, hotel guests will be required to bring their own TP.

McDonald's McGangBang burger.

Well, the offensive name of this burger won't last long.

Daily Mail: McDonald's secret menu in the UK.

McDonald's secret menu has long been rumoured in the UK and while the brand has previously claimed it doesn't exist, turns out you can order from it - if you know what to ask for.

"The very cheekily named McGangBang is a McChicken burger placed inside a double cheeseburger."

Crime must be at an all-time low in Augusta, Georgia.

WRDW: Deputy cites mom for disorderly conduct for 3-year old son's pee emergency.

Potty training can be a stressful time for any parent, but what happened to a Beech Island woman with her 3-year-old son is next level stress.
[.]
[Brooke Johns, who is eight months pregnant] was driving down Sandbar Ferry Road when the little voice in the backseat said he had a big problem.

“He's like, 'Mom, I've got to pee. I've got to pee!' I was like, 'Well, hold on,' and he's like, 'No! I've GOT to pee! I've got to REALLY pee.' And I'm like, 'Baby, there's nowhere for me to go, and he says, 'Momma, I'm about to pee in my pants!" Brooke said.
[.]
Brooke said they barely made it to a gas station parking lot before she realized they wouldn’t be able to make it inside.

“I can’t pick him up,” Brooke said. “You know, I’m not supposed to lift him.”

So, Brooke said she tried to cover Cohen up as best as she could as he relieved himself right there in the parking lot.

“He was peeing before his pants were even all the way down, so obviously he had to go,” Brooke said.

Apparently, this caught the attention of a Richmond County deputy.

"Accidents happen. And he was like, ‘Take him in the bathroom.’ What if I would have ran in the bathroom and someone had been in there? What I was going to let him do? Pee on the floor of the gas station?" Brooke said.

Instead, the deputy decided to cite Brooke with a disorderly conduct charge. Her ticket says, “She allowed her male child to urinate in the parking lot. I observed the male’s genitals and the urination. Public restrooms are offered at the location.”

“I’m going to court April 30,” Brooke said. “Several days before I am due. Yeah, I could extend it, but I would rather deal with it when I’m pregnant. Not when I have a newborn.”

Our Facebook post about the traffic ticket has also lit up social media, with hundreds of parents asking the one question we all have: Why?

Officer "T. Beasley"...to "Protect and Serve"!

Golf clap? Golf clap!

All of Augusta can sleep better knowing no 3-year olds are peeing in their city.

Hawaii legislator proposes age limit of 100 for cigarette purchasing.

Filing this in the "News That Will Never Happen" Department.

KTVU: Hawaii lawmaker proposes banning cigarettes sales to anyone under 100-years old.

Democratic state Rep. Richard Creagan proposed legislation aimed at making the state the first in the country to ban the sale of cigarettes for everyone except people age 100 and over, the Hawaii Tribune-Herald reported Sunday.

Under his bill, the minimum smoking age would increase to 30 in 2020, to 40 in 2021, to 50 in 2022, to 60 in 2023 and to 100 in 2024.

The measure would not apply to e-cigarettes, cigars or chewing tobacco.

I take it Hawaii has fully and completely recovered, homes restored, roads and other property all back to normal, from May 2018. Now it's back to business as usual for Hawaii, or any state legislature, not imminently facing some disaster or crisis.

Or on the plus side, if this proposal becomes law, makers of Fake ID's will see substantial earnings increase.
