After being swatted for the eighth time, this time on Christmas Day, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene revealed she, her boyfriend Brian Glenn, and President Trump were recently the target of sick death threats made by a deranged man–whom police have not arrested even though he threatened to shoot her in the head and skin her body to make a “parasol,” referencing serial killer Ed Gein.
The man also said he wanted to bash in the heads of Trump and Glenn.
Frustrated with the inability of the FBI to track down and make arrests in the swatting incidents, Greene said she will be introducing legislation to “track down swatters.”

Caravan of 8K Migrants Headed to Southern Border

The migrants, mostly from Cuba, Haiti, and Honduras, set out for the U.S. on Sunday. They walked more than nine miles from the Mexican southern border city Tapachula to Alvaro Obregón, the New York Post reported Tuesday.

CBP statistics show that more than 240,000 migrants were encountered each of the past three months. Officials said encounters in December already have surpassed 200,000.
California Forever Lawsuit Looms as Solano County Farmers Fight Back

But a few years ago, their world started to turn upside down. In 2017, Flannery Associates, a company backed by Silicon Valley billionaires, started buying thousands of acres of farmland around them to build a new city from scratch. The Andersons weren’t interested in selling their land when the company first approached them in 2019.
“It’s not just about the money,” said Ian. “It’s about who we are and what we do. We have value in growing our crops and raising our livestock. That is more meaningful than cashing in on money and then trying to start a new life somewhere else.”
California Forever, the parent company of Flannery Associates, wants to “bring back the California Dream” — a dream that includes offices close to homes, with restaurants and small businesses lining the streets in between. The details of how that city will be built are still hazy.

Journalists on the ground in Gaza reported as early as October that the streets were “overflowing with sewage” and the population was “on the brink of a massive health hazard and the risk of diseases are looming.”

Hamas and other Islamic terrorists reject terms of ceasefire proposal requiring that they give up power in Gaza

Egypt developed the ceasefire proposal with the Hamas-friendly Gulf state of Qatar and presented it to Israel, Hamas, the U.S., and various European governments on Monday, reported Al Jazeera.
The proposal asks that Israel fully withdraw from Gaza and for the establishment of a technocratic Palestinian regime to oversee the Gaza Strip and West Bank. Qatar, Egypt, and the U.S. would coordinate on the formation of this new “non-factional” regime.
The proposal further calls for multiple rounds of hostage and prisoner exchanges where Hamas would turn over civilians first, then female Israeli soldiers. Israel would in turn free some of the thousands of Palestinians it presently holds on security-related charges or convictions.

Christmas Massacre: Nigerian Gunmen Kill at Least 140 in ‘Christian-Dominated’ Regions

The assailants targeted 17 communities during the “senseless and unprovoked” attacks on Saturday and Sunday, during which most houses in the areas were burned down, Plateau Gov. Caleb Mutfwang said Tuesday in a broadcast on the local Channels Television.
Some of the locals said that it took more than 12 hours before security agencies responded to their call for help, a claim the AP couldn’t independently verify, but which echoes past concerns about slow interventions in Nigeria‘s deadly security crisis, which has killed hundreds this year, including in Plateau.
No group took responsibility for the attacks though the blame fell on herders from the Fulani tribe, who have been accused of carrying out such mass killings across the northwest and central regions where the decadeslong conflict over access to land and water has further worsened the sectarian division between Christians and Muslims in Africa’s most populous nation.
