Netanyahu is acting like his conquest of Mt. Hermon is intended to be a long term thing.
Israeli troops moving in the South of Syria as well/ not showing a sign of stopping.
Idk I think this is intended to create a new Golan for the Golan. Just a sizeable land grab/annexation rather than temporarily taking the spot of the Assad troops on the Syrian side of the border.

I actually get so pissed off when christians bring up the fact that the prophecy of jerleuselm (idc how u spell it) falling means God is real.

Are the inauguration fund donations as brazen corruption as they sound? Article does mention previously tech companies have donated to the Biden inauguration fund, and I'd ask the same question. Trump's previous inauguration fund was mismanaged. This article mentions the fund doesn't have to disclose how the money is spent. It seems reasonable that observers would be suspicious Trump won't just try to embezzle from it. That being said, is it really? Very unsure if this is the first signs of oncoming rampant corruption, or business as usual for money appropriations in Washington.

U.S. Fears Military Buildup by Turkey Signals Preparations for Incursion Into Syria
WASHINGTON—Senior U.S. officials say Turkey and its militia allies are building up forces along the border with Syria, raising alarm that Ankara is preparing for a large-scale incursion into territory held by American-backed Syrian Kurds.
The forces include militia fighters and Turkish uniformed commandos and artillery in large numbers that are concentrated near Kobani, a Kurdish-majority city in Syria on the northern border with Turkey, the officials said. A Turkish cross-border operation could be imminent, one of the U.S. officials said.
The buildup, which began after Bashar al-Assad’s regime fell in early December, appears similar to Turkish military moves ahead of its 2019 invasion of northeast Syria. “We are focused on it and pressing for restraint,” another of the U.S. officials said.
Ilham Ahmed, an official in the Syrian Kurds’ civilian administration, told President-elect Donald Trump on Monday that a Turkish military operation appeared likely, urging him to press Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan not to send troops across the border.

Myron is a novel by American author Gore Vidal, published in 1974. It was written as a sequel to his 1968 bestseller Myra Breckinridge. The novel was published shortly after an anti-pornography ruling by the Supreme Court; Vidal responded by replacing the profanity in his novel with the names of the Justices involved (e.g., "He thrust his enormous Rehnquist deep within her Whizzer White", etc.)

Cloverdale-Langley by-election seems to be a CPC victory. With 59.86% of polls reporting in. The Conservatives have so far won 2849 votes out of 4661 submitted as of 9:54 PT. With the Liberals trailing at 845, the NDP with 726 and the Greens with 184.
Napkin maths would break down these numbers as: 61% CPC, 18% LPC, 15% NDP and 4% for Greens.
Edit: 10:30 PM (PT) update.
