DOJ Charges Energy Department Employee for Helping Houthi Terrorists

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has found another jihad-loving traitor embedded in our federal government.

The Yemeni Houthis are a designated foreign terrorist organization, and the Department of Energy (DOE) employee was trying to provide material support and resources to that terrorist organization. The Trump administration finally caught him, and he is set to appear Friday in court.

Based on his name, Ashton Hamed Ellaboudy, the DOE employee is — surprise, surprise — a Muslim. Amazing how we never seem to come upon devout Jews and Christians who are supporting devout Jewish or Christian terror groups. ... When is the last time — if ever — an Orthodox Jew or traditional Catholic or Evangelical pastor hijacked a plane, blew up a building, or threw Molotov cocktails while screaming about Jesus? ...

... “As alleged, a U.S. government employee traveled overseas and used his specialized expertise in an attempt to aid the Houthis, a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization backed by Iran,” explained Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg. “Additionally, Ellaboudy acquired materials for the construction of explosive material and drones capable of delivering these explosives. These allegations are so deeply disturbing that they almost defy imagination.”

Biden/Obama era diversity hire? Nothing socio-political?

Republican voters chose Trump over those other candidates because they were tired of do-nothing Republicans who talk a good game on conservative policy, but are generally ineffectual politicians. Their non-response to being insulted by Trump is reflected in how they react when insulted by Democrats. How much ground have Democrats gained simply because Republicans wouldn't oppose them wholheartedly?

Indeed, we may not have had a President Trump today if the other mainstream Republicans had shown that they have spine. But that's because there wouldn't have been a need for him.

High five

A sheep warning other sheep that a wolf in their midst is a wolf is a "low-down, scummy thing to do"? Yeah, makes sense.

Mom Who Stabbed Kids 50 Times Was Out on Bond for Child Endangerment

South Carolina might need to reassess its rules on custody after child endangerment charges.

On Tuesday, I covered the case of Taylor Gosnell, the South Carolina mother who stabbed her children 50 or more times. Miraculously, they survived, though the 6-year-old boy might still need amputations. But the stabbing could have been preventable, because apparently Gosnell had already faced charges of child endangerment, yet authorities let her out on bond so she could go back to the kids.

When Spartanburg County deputies arrived at the home following a call from the children’s grandmother and Gosnell’s former boyfriend, they found many articles in the home splashed in blood. The little boy could lose his arm and some of his fingers because of how deep the knife wounds were. A reporterette for a local outlet noted that the “Sheriff's Office said Gosnell has pending child endangerment charges back in 2024, and at this time, they were unable to give any further details on that.”

I personally find it rather strange that Gosnell apparently still had full custody of her children despite those charges. It seems even her ex-boyfriend felt more responsibility for the kids than she did. WSPA News2 did not identify that former boyfriend as the children’s father, so perhaps he rushed to the house because he remembered that Gosnell had a track record of putting her children at risk? Meanwhile, after the first charges, was there no other alternative home for the children? Not with grandma?

The point of this is that there are always ways to deal with aggressive bullying individuals and since for the most part they threaten terrible consequences, then it is a language which they understand and must needs be used against them. If just one Republican candidate all those years ago on the debate stage really went after Trump hard, this could all have been avoided. But they just stood there smiling while he insulted them, their wives, their parents, and their heritages. It would have taken just one of them to go on a vituperative rant, and he would have been smacked like a fly by a flyswatter. Too little, too late now.
