@Miss4202u @gordonromero205 @its_The_Dr I was just lucky it didn’t explode!

@gordonromero205 @RedBlueNScrewed @its_The_Dr Lol wouldn’t be caught dead in a pinto

Can you guess what kind of car this is? 95 percent will not get it right!

@honeymoon250 Wood plane?

People keep guessing, but no one gets it right. Do you know what this is?

@ick_real Mabel

I'm looking for a ridiculously old-fashioned girl's name for our new born . Think great-grandma name. Very old and rare. Any suggestions asap pls?

@IsaiahLCarter The hipsters have a dream of recreating something like the bohemian Greenwich Village of the 1960s in neighborhoods like Williamsburg. But you can never replicate a time and place like that.

Williamsburg, Brooklyn has fallen

@BreeSolstad Robert Powell definitely played the coolest Jesus. His unblinking stare is unforgettable.

Part 3: No one who has ever played Jesus has performed at the level of Robert Powell. His acting truly appears inspired by God himself, even if the actor himself never knew it. This scene captures the immense power of Christ! Flawless!!!

@DefiyantlyFree And according to Matthew, Jesus is in the line of King David, who is from the line of Jacob (Israel).

Islam is not an Abrahamic faith. I am sorry but it is not. That’s just a fact. Abraham and Sarah, long past childbearing age, were promised a son through whom the world would be blessed. When Abraham and Hagar, Sarah’s maidservant, conceived Ishmael, God still reaffirmed that the covenant would continue through Isaac, not Ishmael. “Then God said: Sarah your wife shall bear you a son indeed; and you shall call his name Isaac. I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his descendants after him.” (Genesis 17:19) “But My covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this set time next year.” (Genesis 17:21) This promise is central to both Judaism and Christianity. The covenant of land, blessing, and salvation flowed through Isaac → Jacob (Israel), not Ishmael. The Qur’an reveres Abraham (Ibrāhīm) as a prophet but retells the story differently. While it never explicitly names which son Abraham was commanded to sacrifice, Islamic tradition identifies him as Ishmael (Ismāʿīl), not Isaac. In this view, Ishmael is the true heir of the covenant, the father of the Arab nations and ancestor of Muhammad, whom Islam calls the final messenger. This reinterpretation places the divine promise in the Ishmaelite line, not the Israelite one, and thus forms the theological foundation for Islam’s claim to spiritual and territorial inheritance. According to the Bible, that claim contradicts the very covenant God Himself established. Sorry, just had to clear that up for anybody who’s still confused.

They have an English working class, maybe a north London accent? I can’t believe the self control shown by the Israelis. I’ve seen Israelis act restrained like this in many similar hostile videos and it always amazes me how they do it, especially since every Israeli man and woman has a military background. I suspect they fear they would be treated harshly by law enforcement in whatever foreign country they are in if they were to engage the tormentors in an aggressive manner.

DISGUSTING: Irish trash referring to themselvesas “goyim” Harass Israeli Couple in Vietnam chanting “Boom boom Tel Aviv,” “viva viva Iran”, “child killer” calling the couple “rats,” and repeating the “Jews were expelled from “110 countries.” The decision for the couple to walk away rather than engage further is commendable- as I would have definitely preferred the @sneako’ed them on camera .

@walterkirn @Gutfeldfox You’re one of my favorite guests; dry wit and incisive observations.

Finally back on the calendar @Gutfeldfox . It'll be a couple of weeks before I'm on, but I'm going to need every minute to prepare. Greg is so dazzling in person, see, that it's just possible I will seize up on the air & fall silent in awe & admiration. Not likely. Possible.

@TheCinesthetic I’m old enough to remember when Robert Blake starred in the 1970’s police drama, “Barretta”. Another crazy scene in “Lost Highway” is the road rage scene with Robert Loggia.

The eerie Mystery Man in Lost Highway was inspired by a real encounter David Lynch once had at a party, where a stranger claimed to be at his house at that moment. It became the blueprint for one of the film’s most haunting scenes.

@Matt_Pinner Hazel

Can someone suggest a super old-fashioned girl name Not Betty

@atensnut I remember lots of kids had those in my elementary school in the early 1970’s. Duncan yo yo’s were also a big fad with kids at that time.

I think they’re called “clackers”. Never owned any or knew anyone who did.

@PaulDMauro No headaches tomorrow from Italian wine 👍

Yeah you’re right. I’m up alone drinking the last of the wine in this kind of library this place has but I’m hearing the voice of reason from Jeanne here. Night all.

@BryceMLipscomb This doesn’t account for the fact that people get wiser as they get older.

Boomers aren’t enough to keep Israel popular in America. Gen X, Millennials, & Gen Z are fed up with Israel. We are ready to dump them as an ally.

@DefiyantlyFree @naomirwolf Maybe Tucker will talk about it? Naaah

Hezbollah directly hitting a historic Byzantine church that Israeli authorities were working hard to preserve on Friday. Did you hear any outrage? Of course not. You didn’t hear a word about it and you never will. That’s how you know these people are full of it.

I’ve found as both an employee and as a manager that the top performers, although intelligent, weren’t necessarily the most intelligent employees. But they were highly competitive with their colleagues and had laser focus on a task. The super intelligent employees tended to get bored quickly and it was hard for them to stick too long with one project.

Mary Barra, Chairman and CEO of General Motors, on the single most underrated trait that separates high performers from everyone else: It's not intelligence, experience, or even talent. She is direct about it: "In my experience, in school and career, at work and at play, there are lots of talented people out there. But talent alone isn't enough. You need something more." That "something more" is what most people overlook entirely. "One thing that distinguishes those who really make a difference in life, those who really contribute, is passion and hard work. Remember, hard work beats talent, if talent doesn't work hard." But @mtbarra takes it further than just working hard. Because working hard quietly, passively, and waiting for your turn doesn't move the needle either. Most people operate on the edges. They show up, do the work they're assigned, and wait to be noticed. Barra says that mindset is exactly what holds people back: "Don't be content to work around the edges of your profession. Don't wait to be invited to important meetings or asked to work on crucial assignments. Instead, do what it takes to ensure that you're in the middle of your business." The underrated trait is proactive hard work, not just hard work alone. "Speak up, volunteer, show your enthusiasm, knock on doors." And the compounding effect of that behaviour is significant at every level of an organisation: "As an employee, your enthusiasm will make your job more interesting and get you noticed. As a manager, your passion will inspire others to join your team and work as hard as you to accomplish great things." The people who consistently rise are the ones who stopped waiting for permission and started showing up like the work already mattered to them, because it always did.

I’ve known many Americans of German or part German ancestry. Almost all of them terrific people. Unfortunately, the stigmas from WW1 and, especially WW2, has, I think, made them kind of low key about their ethnicity, unlike, say Italian or Irish Americans. Having spent most of my life in the NYC area, I can honestly tell you that I’ve never met a Jewish American who held any animosity toward people of German decent. The Jewish community rightly appears not to hold Germans or others accountable for what their grandparents or great grandparents might have done.

The most neglected fact about the making of the United State is the immense-unsurpassed contributions of Germans. Germans represent the single largest European group, accounting for 14.7% of all European immigrants. German immigrants and their descendants brought to American society a "maker" ethos . They literally made up America's industrial and agricultural backbone, engaged not in journalism, movies, fashion --- but in manly pursuits (furniture, machining, farming, engineering). German immigrants excelled in precision machine tool industries, civil and mechanical engineering, building railroads, bridges, and infrastructure. They played key role in developing rocketry for Apollo missions, and modernizing agricultural techniques (Wisconsin became "America's Dairyland" due to German settlers). Germans gave Americans the kindergarten system, the Christmas tree tradition, hot dogs, hamburgers, the major beers, NASA and moon landings, and the best football players Why is everyone afraid to affirm this heritage? America, after all, was conceived as a synthesis of 4 traditions: 1) Classic Greek philosophy with its standard of actualizing the highest in human nature; 2) Roman republican government and rule of the best through an aristocratic division of powers among three branches of government; 3) Christian/Anglo Protestant morals; 4) Germanic aristocratic ethos of honor and primordial freedom. But the Germanic side was rejected after WWII; Christianity was transmuted into "Judeo-Christianity", the Greek-Roman side was reduced to "democracy" and "civil rights" for blacks.

@DefiyantlyFree Yes-I lost 18 lbs. just walking my dog a few times a day. Walking and fresh air (and not keeping your head in your IPHONE) is very important.

Walking 10,000 steps a day has literally been amazing. Let’s hope I don’t get busy again and stop doing it. Honestly being outside and getting fresh air and vitamin D really does boost your mood. If I could only learn to find something positive about the gym that would be amazing but that’s ok lol. Baby steps.

@PaulDMauro Was just there this past October. Interestingly, the Romans preferred the chariot races at the Circus Maximus over the gladiator matches at the Colosseum. Also, the Emperor doing the thumbs up, thumbs down thing was only in the movies.

Off from Fox and The Ops Desk for annual vacation. This thing has to be seen in person to be believed. The size of it!

@shagbark_hick Interesting/I’m not really familiar with that area of NY, but, true, Upstate NY has much natural beauty.

Case in point here is Upstate NY. This place should be a paradise. It's superlatively gorgeous -- maybe the most beautiful place east of the Mississippi -- and fertile. The housing's cheap, there are OK jobs, soil's fine, life is easy. But people here are MISERABLE. Daily interactions involve leering, awkward staring, cold shoulders, nervous energy. Loner-hermit types avoid others; elderly are crotchedy and skittish. DinerGoth types are lurking, vaping, being gay, mumbling to themselves in the Stewart's parking lot. No one's stopping to chat, no one's your friend, everyone is kind of tense in public. Guys are shooting up on the street in Watertown, Utica, even Tupper Lake. Any cop will tell you WEIRD, dark stories about what goes on here. The Kulak class is overtaxed; the State Workers dream of Florida once the pension hits. Young guys are all planning to move to South Carolina, Texas. Local government is a good old boys club for the dumbest, most cynical drunkards in each county. The whole vibe is "soviet." Except in lib enclaves, where the vibe is "tense, judgemental, 'in this house we believe', paranoid about MAGA, cloistered." And so this place is cheap, low-rent, undesirable. Gentrifiers try to come but they don't stay here. This place resists any attempt to "reinvigorate" it. The dysgenic darkness hangs over every inch of it; no amount of bright-eyed yuppies can fix it. Albany can't fix it. It's all graft, corruption, awkward stammering parochial nutcases wandering the streets in between disability checks. The residents of so many places here are the genetic remnants of those who didn't have the gumption or the brains to go West when the time came, and it shows. Literally the best move we have is to pay people to LEAVE. If I was the governor I'd allocate massive amounts of money towards this. I'd straight-up pay people to clear out, get out of here, move along. I'd pay their moving expenses, send them to Florida or whatever. And we'd flourish.
