<p>Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI) admitted to FBI Director Kash Patel during a Tuesday hearing that there are, in fact, biological differences between men and women that can greatly impact their physical capabilities.</p>
<p>Hirono, who has repeatedly advocated for men to be allowed to self-identify as females and play in girls&#8217; and women&#8217;s sports leagues, complained during the hearing that FBI applicants were expected to do one pull-up regardless of whether they were male or female.</p>

<p>&#8220;One question I had is that you are now requiring applicants to be able to do a certain kind of pull-ups, which a lot of women can not because of physiological differences,&#8221; Hirono said. &#8220;Are you requiring these kinds of pull-ups?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We are requiring the physical program at BFTC (Basic Field Training Course) at Quantico because FBI agents carrying guns in the field, have to chase down bad guys, and do really hard work,&#8221; Patel replied. &#8220;The physical fitness standards of those agents —&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;So are you requiring these kinds of pull-ups?&#8221; Hirono interrupted.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are requiring everybody to pass the standards at BFTC,&#8221; Patel replied. &#8220;If you want to chase down a bad guy and put him in handcuffs you better be able to do a pull-up.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The reason I ask is that there are concerns about whether or not being able to do these kinds of harsh pull-ups is really required of FBI agents,&#8221; Hirono tried again.</p>
<p>&#8220;Doing one pull-up is not harsh,&#8221; Patel shot back, adding, &#8220;And there are always medical exemptions to them.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hirono, as recently as April of this year, was complaining about Republican efforts to bar men from playing in women&#8217;s sports in spite of the same &#8220;physiological differences&#8221; she raised concerns about at Tuesday&#8217;s hearing.</p>

Democrat Senator Admits Men And Women Have Physical Differences

<p>FBI Director Kash Patel unloaded on Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) during a Tuesday hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, calling him a &#8220;political buffoon&#8221; and an &#8220;utter coward&#8221; who was fine with lying to the people as long as he could use it to keep the political donations coming in.</p>
<p>Schiff kicked off the heated exchange with a question about convicted sex-trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving time for her crimes related to the late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, asking about the fact that she&#8217;d recently been moved to a minimum-security facility.</p>
<p>Patel said that the Bureau of Prisons had approved the transfer, but Schiff mentioned Maxwell&#8217;s meeting with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and argued that the timing made the move suspect. &#8220;You want the American people to believe that? Do you think they&#8217;re stupid?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No, I think the American people believe the truth. That I&#8217;m not in the weeds on the everyday movements of inmates,&#8221; Patel replied. &#8220;What I am doing is protecting this country, providing historic reform, and combating the weaponization of intelligence by the likes of you and we have countlessly proven you to be a liar in Russiagate, in January 6. You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate. You are a disgrace to this institution and an utter coward.&#8221;</p>
<p>Schiff attempted to shout Patel down throughout, pointing his finger and repeating, &#8220;This stinks to high heaven.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not surprised —&#8221; Schiff said.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not surprised,&#8221; Patel shot back. &#8220;That you continue to lie from your perch and put on a show so you can go raise money for your charade. You are a political buffoon at best.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not surprised &#8230; You can take — you can make an internet troll the FBI Director, but he will always be nothing more than an internet troll,&#8221; Schiff insisted, smiling.</p>
<p>&#8220;All you care about is a child sex predator who was prosecuted by a prior administration, and the Obama Justice Department and the Biden Justice Department did squat, and what did President Trump do? Bring new charges, courageously. And what have we done?&#8221; Patel continued. &#8220;Thirty-three thousand pages of information &#8230; Go ahead and run to the cameras, where you want to go now.&#8221;</p>

Kash Patel Just Ended Adam Schiff: ‘Go Ahead And Run To The Cameras’

<p>Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) attempted to steamroll FBI Director Kash Patel during a testy Capitol Hill hearing on Tuesday, but Patel pushed right back — and Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) quickly backed Patel.</p>
<p>Booker had the chance, as a member of the committee, to question Patel during his allotted time — and he did ask a few questions of the FBI director, although he spent the majority of his time pontificating about his assessment of Patel&#8217;s job performance thus far. When he&#8217;d exhausted his own time, Grassley allowed Patel to respond — but Booker could not resist the opportunity and began to protest while he was speaking.</p>

<p>Booker began by claiming that the FBI&#8217;s mission was being compromised and agents were being &#8220;reassigned&#8221; to assist Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, and argued that Patel was failing the agency by firing a number of agents with years of experience and seniority.</p>
<p>&#8220;Because of your failures of leadership, I don’t think you’re fit to lead the bureau. Here’s the thing, Mr. Patel, I think you’re not going to be around long. I think this might be your last full oversight hearing. Because as much as you supplicate yourself to the will of <span class="person-popover" data-nid="2086">Donald Trump </span>and not the Constitution of the United States of America, Donald Trump has shown us in his first term, and in this term, he is not loyal to people like you. He will cut you loose,&#8221; Booker claimed. &#8220;This may be the last time I have a hearing with you, because I don’t think you’re long for your job.&#8221;</p>
<p>When the New Jersey Senator had finished, Grassley offered Patel the chance to respond, uninterrupted, and he took it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Sir, that rant of false information does not bring this country together,&#8221; Patel began. &#8220;If you want to work on bringing this country together — it&#8217;s my time, not yours.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;My God. My God,&#8221; Booker&#8217;s tone grew increasingly dramatic. &#8220;You&#8217;re going to lecture me about dividing this country?&#8221;</p>
<p>Booker then claimed that he followed Patel&#8217;s social media posts &#8220;that tear this country apart&#8221; — all while Patel attempted to continue his testimony and Grassley banged his gavel, chastising Booker for interrupting.</p>
<p>&#8220;It is my time,&#8221; Patel repeated. &#8220;You had your time. Your time is over.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Sir, you don&#8217;t tell me my time is over,&#8221; Booker insisted, pointing a finger at Patel. &#8220;The people of New Jersey tell me what my time is — you can&#8217;t lecture me —&#8221;</p>
<p>The crosstalk continued until Grassley once again banged the gavel, reminding Booker that he had, in fact, already had his time to talk and Patel was to be allowed to continue.</p>
<p>Patel followed with a list of the accomplishments made by the bureau under his leadership, pointedly addressing Booker as he argued that a &#8220;failing&#8221; leader could not have made such gains.</p>

‘This Is My Time’: Kash Patel Shuts Down Cory Booker In Heated Capitol Hill Clash

<p>Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah — who was with the outlet for just over a decade — was terminated over a Bluesky post in which she misquoted the recently-assassinated conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.</p>
<p>Attiah claimed in a Substack article that the outlet had fired her for doing her job as a journalist, saying that she&#8217;d only been &#8220;speaking out against political violence, racial double standards, and America’s apathy toward guns.&#8221;</p>
<p>In a series of Bluesky posts, Attiah claimed that Americans would never take action on gun control because they were fine with sacrificing the lives of children in order to keep access to firearms — and &#8220;especially white America is not going to do what it needs to do to get rid of the guns in their country.&#8221;</p>
<p>The only post that mentioned Kirk by name was a quote she attributed to him:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Black women do not have the brain-processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person&#8217;s slot.&#8221;</em></p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;The Post accused my measured Bluesky posts of being &#8216;unacceptable,&#8217; &#8216;gross misconduct&#8217; and of endangering the physical safety of colleagues — charges without evidence, which I reject completely as false,&#8221; Attiah added.</p>
<p>But as journalist Jerry Dunleavy noted, Attiah&#8217;s quote was inaccurate. She suggested, as a number of others had, that Kirk was referring to all black women when he said that they lacked &#8220;the brain-processing power to be taken seriously.&#8221; In reality, Kirk had directed that comment at a few specific black women: Michelle Obama, the late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, former MSNBC host Joy Reid, and Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.</p>

Liberal Washington Post Columnist Fired Over Charlie Kirk Comments

<p>Comedian and HBO host Bill Maher, a professed atheist, tried to claim that his sense of morality was not in any way based on the Bible — but Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro had other ideas.</p>
<p>Maher sparred with The Daily Wire co-founder and author during a recent broadcast of his show, where the comedian kicked off the conversation by claiming that because the Bible contained &#8220;nonsense and wickedness,&#8221; it must have been written by men rather than written or inspired by God as Jews and Christians believe.</p>
<p><strong>WATCH:</strong></p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s always such a silly argument, because if God wrote the book, how could there be &#8216;things we don&#8217;t agree with&#8217;?&#8221; Maher asked in mocking tones. &#8220;It&#8217;s either got to be perfect because it&#8217;s written by &#8216;you know who,&#8217; or it&#8217;s just not perfect and it&#8217;s written by people, which it was, obviously, and it&#8217;s full of nonsense and wickedness and things that are everything but virtuous.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;So, Bill, you and I agree on morality, I&#8217;d say like 87%,&#8221; Shapiro said in response.</p>
<p>&#8220;Morality, but not from the Bible,&#8221; Maher protested.</p>
<p>&#8220;I have a question: Why?&#8221; Shapiro challenged Maher.</p>
<p>&#8220;Because it&#8217;s for slavery!&#8221; Maher exclaimed, claiming the Bible advocated slavery. &#8220;Because it&#8217;s okay with slavery —&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No, no, no, no, why do you and I agree on morality like 87.5%?&#8221; Shapiro clarified the question. &#8220;I&#8217;m a religious Jew, you&#8217;re an atheist. Why do we agree on these things?&#8221;</p>
<p>Maher appeared to be still processing the question when Shapiro offered to give his answer to the question, and Maher invited him to go ahead.</p>
<p>&#8220;We probably grew up a few miles from each other in a western society that has several thousand years of Biblical history behind it,&#8221; Shapiro explained. &#8220;And so you can think that you hit that triple and you formed your own morality, but the reality is you were born, morally, on third base.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No, we —&#8221; Maher attempted to push back, but stalled out as the audience laughed.</p>
<p>Shapiro gave a longer explanation of the origins of morality during a debate with Sam Harris several years earlier, which can be viewed below:</p>

Bill Maher Says His ‘Morality’ Isn’t Bible-Based. Ben Shapiro Sets Him Straight.

<p>Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spoke to the massive crowd at a prayer vigil for assassinated conservative commentator Charlie Kirk on Sunday, telling them, among other things, that Kirk had been the reason that he and President Donald Trump had joined forces in the summer of 2024.</p>
<p>Many noted that Kennedy himself already had far too much personal experience with political assassinations. Both his father, Robert F. Kennedy, and his uncle, former President John F. Kennedy, were shot while holding or seeking public office. Kennedy said his voice was especially important because of that experience.</p>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<p>Kennedy started with a story about his 17-year-old niece, who was preparing to leave for Europe for college when her mother noticed that she’d packed a Bible in her suitcase. When asked about it, Kennedy said his teenage niece’s response was simple: “I want to live like Charlie Kirk.”</p>
<p>The HHS Secretary went on to tell the crowd that Kirk, whom he’d met more than a decade earlier, had been the driving force behind his joining the Trump campaign.</p>
<p>“I went on his podcast, and I think we approached each other with a lot of trepidation at that time, but, by the end of the podcast, we were soul mates, we were spiritual brothers, and we were friends,” Kennedy said of his first meeting with Kirk before adding, “And over the next couple of years, our friendship blossomed … He ended up being a primary architect of my unification with President Trump.”</p>
<p>Kennedy and the crowd laughed together as he recalled that the sparklers at the TPUSA rally — where Kennedy endorsed Trump — had been Charlie’s idea as well.</p>
<p>“I had a conversation once with Charlie,” Kennedy added. “We were talking about the danger that we were both challenging entrenched interests, and he asked if I was scared of dying. And I said, ‘There [are] a lot worse things than dying.&#8217;”</p>
<p>He noted that Kirk had voiced a desire to “die fighting with our boots on,” Kennedy concluded, “Charlie gave his life so that the rest of us would not have to suffer those fates worse than death. Now it’s our job — he’s no longer there to lead us — to rush in and fill the breach and win the battle for our country, for God, and for our families.”</p>

NEW College Football Playoff Rankings Week 4 | THESE TEAMS ARE OUT [Member Exlcusive]

Less than a week after our friend Charlie Kirk’s cold-blooded assassination, a shocking number of voices on the radical Left are openly cheering his death and even demanding more violence against conservatives. And the media?  Silent–or worse, actively fanning the flames.

In today’s episode, we break down how America got to this scary place, why the calls for violence are escalating, and what Vice President JD Vance really had to say yesterday about defending free speech and faith in the face of evil.

With major Left wing influencers like Destiny, Hasan Piker, and Mehdi Hasan’s despicable language influencing millions, we are at a crossroads. Will America surrender to darkness, or rise up with truth?
