Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog serves up another current events roundup from a world where you’d think the pro-Hamas fools who’ve been pretending that Israel was inflicting a genocide in Gaza would be thrilled with the ceasefire.
But let’s be honest – they knew there was no genocide going on, they just wanted as many dead Israelis as possible and to harass Jews living in western countries using Gaza as their excuse for it.
TRIUMPHANT PRESIDENT TRUMP ARRIVES IN ISRAEL AS CROWDS REJOICE. Red Cross confirms release of first hostages. I’m guessing anti-Trump fascists will now move to claiming Trump is the Anti-Christ given all the praise he’s gotten for spreading peace, especially in the Middle East.
TRUMP THE PEACE PRESIDENT TO ADDRESS THE KNESSET. (For uninformed Trump-haters that’s Israel’s parliament.)
TRUMP GETS ASTRAZENECA TO JOIN PFIZER IN MONUMENTALLY LOWERING PRICES FOR PRESCRIPTION DRUGS. More HERE. And HERE. Have I mentioned lately that Trump is the greatest president for the working class and the poor during my lifetime?
SCHUMER SHUTDOWN CONTINUES TO HARM INNOCENT PEOPLE. All just so Democrats can keep pushing free healthcare for illegal immigrants.
DEMOCRAT “SANCTUARY STATE” CALIFORNIA IGNORED RETAINER AND RELEASED REPEAT CRIMINAL AND ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT TO THWART ICE. THE ILLEGAL PROCEEDED TO KILL SIX PEOPLE. No sanctuary for the victims under Democrat rule, just for the perpetrators.
ILLINOIS TEACHER ARRESTED FOR GROOMING AND SHARING EXPLICIT PICS. Democrats, can you please leave children alone?
TRUMP-HATERS STILL OUTRAGED THAT NOBEL PEACE PRIZE WINNER MACHADO DEDICATED THE PRIZE TO PRESIDENT TRUMP AND HER PEOPLE. Continue reading
THE WERE-WOLF (1896) – By Clemence Annie Housman. Halloween month continues at Balladeer’s Blog! This neglected story features a female author writing about a FEMALE WEREWOLF so that makes it a bit special right there.
TOPPLING NUMBER FOUR – In NCAA Division 2, the number 15 CENTRAL WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY WILDCATS visited the 4th ranked UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT THE PERMIAN BASIN FALCONS. The Falcons were on top 7-3 come Halftime and 14-10 to end the 3rd Quarter. In the 4th, the Wildcats came from behind for a 27-14 Upset victory. 
NUMBER EIGHT TAKES A FALL – Staying in D2 for a moment, the NORTHERN STATE WOLVES played host to the country’s number 8 UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA AT DULUTH BULLDOGS. A 10-7 1st Quarter edge for the Wolves became 20-10 by the midpoint. After the break, the Bulldogs rallied but fell short as Northern State held on tight in a 34-31 triumph.
ANOTHER NUMBER EIGHT FOLLOWS – Over in the NAIA, the 14th ranked CARROLL COLLEGE FIGHTING SAINTS traveled to face the number 8 team in the nation – the UNIVERSITY OF MONTANA-WESTERN BULLDOGS. At the Half, the Fighting Saints put UMW on Upset Alert with their 28-14 advantage. From there CC held on to win the game 42-34. 
The Democrats seem determined to keep fueling the #WALKAWAY movement. I originally estimated it would take close to a decade at least for #WALKAWAY to have real impact but the Democrats may make it happen sooner since they refuse to tamp down their pomposity toward voters they think they OWN. 
“For as much as feminists say they hate the patriarchy, they do a darn good job of patronizing women with whom they disagree. They are demeaning, self-righteous and condescending. They deemed women who supported Kavanaugh “gender traitors.” They called Susan Collins and other senators who voted “yes” on the now-justice “rape apologists.” They claimed women who voted for Trump did so because of “internal misogyny.”
This weekend’s light-hearted, escapist superhero post from Balladeer’s Blog looks at Cassie Hack, the horror superheroine who battles a long line of slashers as stylishly as Buffy fought vampires. 
HACK/ SLASH Vol 1 #1 (Apr 2004) 
Readers are now dropped into the main story, set years later when Cassie Hack has established herself as a roving heroine who battles living and undead slashers alongside her African American sidekick – the hulking, gasmask-wearing Vlad. He views Cassie like a daughter and wields meat cleavers and butcher’s knives in battle. 
NUMBER TWO ROLLS – The 2nd ranked team in NCAA Division 2 football – the HARDING UNIVERSITY BISON – traveled to face the SOUTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA STATE SAVAGE STORM. A 14-0 1st Quarter lead for the Bison became 21-7 by Halftime. Harding U. shut out the Savage Storm from there as they won the game by a final score of 35-7.
KNOCKING OFF NUMBER NINE – Last night the JONES COLLEGE BOBCATS played host to the nation’s 9th ranked HINDS COLLEGE EAGLES. A 7-7 tie in the opening Quarter morphed into a 24-14 Bobcats advantage at the Half. After the break, the two teams wound up exchanging Touchdowns in a 31-21 Upset victory for Jones College. 
POSSESSION (1981) – Halloween Month continues here at Balladeer’s Blog with a review of the thoroughly bizarre cult film Possession, from Polish director Andrzej Zulawksi. Because I review everything from mild horror films to extreme works, I’m offering my usual COURTESY WARNING for readers who prefer less transgressive movies. 
I’m far from alone in praising Possession to the Heavens, so my take on it may seem like a mere rehashing for those who are already passionate fans. However, in my opinion only the full 2 hour and 4-minute version is worth watching, not the trimmed-down versions.
