2. This "third world country" equipped the Norwegian military with a lot of its modern hardware. This "third world country" also has global reach with its military, protecting various countries, and allowing them to skimp on their defense bugets. One wonders what would happen to the wonderful welfare systems were that not the case.

I checked, just out of curiosity, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Norwegian_Air_Force#Current_inventory . The Royal Norwegian Air Force flies:

* F-35 fighters and fighter-trainers;

* P-8 ASW/Patrol aircraft;

* C-130J transports;

* Bell 412 utility helicopters.

The Norwegian Army isn't into US tanks, rifles, and side arms, but uses the Ma Deuce and some US sniper rifles (some in .50 BMG). They also use the M72 LAW RPG and Javelin guided anti-tank missile.

I don't think the FBI agents in this raid rifled through Brittany's lingerie drawer.

BREAKING: FBI Disrupts ISIS-Inspired Terrorist Attack on New York Statehouse

A 35-year-old Albany, N.Y., woman is in federal custody for allegedly planting a bomb in the State Capitol building with lawmakers inside.

Details are still thin, but I'll give you what we know and some choice reactions.

A Fox News breaker reports that the FBI told the network that a suspect named Jessica Bowie plotted to kill New York lawmakers after she "pledged allegiance to ISIS," more accurately known as the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

Bowie allegedly planned to hide a bomb inside a DoorDash bag, "hoping to strike while state senators were meeting."

Wednesday, Bowie allegedly bought from two FBI informants what she thought was an explosive device, but was actually inert, according to the bureau. She was also given a non-functioning handgun.

This is very early, so keep a decent sized block of salt next to you.

Remember, kids: No person is illegal.

So go to Norway for your health care.

1. We are truly a third world country

1. This "third world country" does not rank that far behind Norway in quality of life, and ranks ahead of Canada, Spain, the UK, France, and others, according to this: https://www.numbeo.com/quality-of-life/rankings_by_country.jsp

2. This "third world country" equipped the Norwegian military with a lot of its modern hardware. This "third world country" also has global reach with its military, protecting various countries, and allowing them to skimp on their defense bugets. One wonders what would happen to the wonderful welfare systems were that not the case.

The FBI Paid Eric Swalwell a Visit Over the Weekend

Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) started his Saturday in the Washington, D.C., house he still shares with his wife and three kids. He ended it face-to-face with the FBI. When his flight landed at San Francisco International Airport, agents were waiting on the tarmac with a search warrant, and they walked away with his cell phone and other electronic devices. The disgraced former congressman and onetime frontrunner for California governor is now the target of a federal criminal investigation into multiple allegations of sexual assault and misconduct.

The airport stop was just the opening act.

On Sunday, agents returned with additional court-approved search warrants and let themselves into Swalwell's D.C. house while he and his wife, Brittany Watts, 41, were nowhere in sight. According to a report from the Daily Mail, well-placed sources say agents seized additional undisclosed evidence, and that Swalwell was actually cooperative when they confronted him at the airport.

Swalwell faces allegations from at least four women. One woman claims he drugged and raped her in 2018. A former staffer says he raped her twice while she was too intoxicated to consent in 2019 and then in 2024. Two of the women say he sent them unsolicited photos of his genitalia.

Evidently, Swillwell's zipper-control "issue" continued after his low-8 Chinese Honeypot went back to China. Self-respecting scumbags might find him disgusting.

Says, presumably, a supporter of DSA candidates who have vowed to do away with the constitution, in spite of the fact that should any of them win, they'll have to take an oath to support and defend it.

The left has been hinting at this for years, saying the Constitution is an “anachronism” for the benefit of white men.

Attacking the founding document of the country. It doesn’t get more anti-American than that.

Norway has a population of 5.6 million.  The Dallas-Ft. Worth metroplex has a population of almost 8.5 million.  NYC has a population of just over 8.5 million.  Norway is 90% white Europeans, mostly native Norwegians.  The US is made up of dozens of nationalities and ethnicities, some who have been here for generations, some who are new comers, some who have assimilated well some who have not.  For these and dozens of other reasons, the comparison is apples and oranges, moonbats.  Not that this will stop you from trotting out your false equivalency, but it's a reminder that your argument is fertilizer.

Norway's population is also spread across a vastly larger and challenging geography than DFW and NYC. Which leads to something DU-grade Progs refuse to see. Different culture do things differently because they adapt and work within different geography, history, and traditional cultures. Until Marxian Socialism and Socialism Lite became fashionable in the mid 20th Century, countries developed without that ideology being imposed. Full-on Marxist and non-Marxist Socialism has failed everywhere it's been tried. Socialism Lite is doing poorly or failing in places as diverse as China and the UK, because milking the "rich" and businesses to fund gooberment not-free-bies discourages accomplishment  and excellence.

One of the unintended consequences of EuroLanders coming to the US for FIFA is that they saw an abundance and degree of freedom here in the US that their gooberment and gooberment-shill MSM concealed with a cloak of falsehood-veneered silence.
