INDESTRUCTIBLE. This Partisan One flat-pack box is actually a warzone SUV that can survive a BOMB – and comes with a 100 year warranty
FORGET the flowing lines of an Aston Martin or the luxury of a Rolls-Royce - this is the new kid on the block.
The boxy Partisan One might just be one of the most basic and ugliest cars ever.
The warzone ready SUV is limited to a steering wheel, pedals, lights and seats - and yet you'll still need to part with £44,000 for the privilege.
But don't worry, you do get a 100 year warranty because the German firm reckons it's THAT indestructible - presumably because there's so little to actually break.
Kia's market leading seven year warranty suddenly looks a little inadequate.
The scaffold-inspired Partisan One is delivered in lightweight assembly kits - think Ikea at war.
It's the brainchild of Russian engineer Dr Juri Postnikov and is expected to live life on the battlefield.
It can be dropped into any warzone and withstand ...
NBC passed on explosive Weinstein rape story Woody Allen’s son just broke in the New Yorker; WHY?
 |
| Ronan Farrow (second from left) said his estranged father, Woody Allen, molested his sister Dylan. |
Underscoring that the left’s culture of silence surrounding Hollywood depravity has business — as well as ethical — consequences, the New Yorker broke the biggest entertainment story of the decade after NBC News passed on it.
Farrow, the estranged son of director (and famously accused child molester) Woody Allen, appeared on the Rachel Maddow Show to discuss Weinstein’s three decades of sexual harassment and abuse.
“Why did you end up reporting this story for the New Yorker and not NBC News?” Maddow asked. Ronan played coy because NBC, the parent of MSNBC, is still his employer.
“You would have to ask NBC and NBC executives about the details of that story,” he said. “I’m not going to comment on any news organization’s story that they did or didn’t run.”
Farrow continued: “Over many years, many news organizations have circled this storyand faced a great deal of pressure in doing so. And there are now reports emerging publicly about the kinds of pressure that news organizations face in this.”
Farrow revealed that Weinstein’s lawyers threatened to sue him if he published his story. “In the course of this reporting, I was threatened with a lawsuit personally by Mr. Weinstein,” he said. “And we’ve already seen that the [New York] Times has been publicly threatened with...

Donald Trump Challenges NFL Tax Breaks
“Why is the NFL getting massive tax breaks while at the same time disrespecting our Anthem, Flag and Country?” Trump asked. “Change tax law!”
Team owners usually reap big tax breaks from local, state, and federal officials to help build expensive new stadiums and keep a football team in the community.
Fox News Tucker Carlson featured the issue on the special tax loopholes that NFL sports leagues on his show on Monday night.
He focused his segment on a bill sponsored by Congressman Matt Gaetz to end special tax breaks for the NFL.
Gaetz said that Congress should not be subsidizing the NFL with tax breaks “particularly when the NFL league office has embraced this...
Why We Cannot Trust the FBI
The Islamic State says Steven Paddock converted six months ago. He filmed himself killing; jihadis do that and post it online. The attack was meticulously planned, as jihad attacks are, and Paddock likely had an accomplice. Paddock made numerous trips to the Middle East. Over 200 of his foreign financial transactions were flagged for possible “covert terrorism financing.”
Contrary to the ignorant, misinformed and delusional talking heads in the media, ISIS does not take responsibility for events that are not theirs. This has led even the New York Times’ terrorism expert to give credence to ISIS’ claims. The Philippines attack at Resorts World Casino was theirs. And there again, ISIS’ initial claims of responsibility were dismissed.
The Los Angeles Times reported Saturday that “the FBI investigated the Orlando mass shooter for 10 months -- and found nothing.”
The Orlando jihadi who opened fire on gay nightclub revelers at the Pulse Nightclub called 911 during the attack and pledged his allegiance to the Islamic State. The FBI investigated the Orlando mass shooter for 10 months and found nothing.
The FBI was warned of the Muslim Boston bombers -- multiple times -- and did nothing. Their inaction led to the Boston Marathon bombings.
And in another case, an FBI translator married the ISIS fighter that she was supposed to be investigating.
The FBI was in on the planning of the jihad attack against the Garland Muhammad art expo in Garland, Texas. They did nothing to stop it, not even giving us a warning that my event was targeted by devout Muslims who meant to kill us Charlie Hebdo-style. We killed those jihadis. It was the security team I hired to protect my event that saved...

An Armenian mother sits besides the bodies of her 6 children in 1915. They had been separated from their mom and starved to death during the Armenian Genocide. The fate of the mother is unknown. The father may have already been killed. The Ottoman Turks are believed to have killed 1.5 million Armenians in an ethnic cleansing of the area. They executed many, but preferred to starve the Armenians, often separating families and sometimes using the adults into forced labor while the old, sick, and children starved. Eventually they would kill everyone who were no longer useful. Many fled to Syria and would die on the harsh roads. Turkey to this day does not acknowledge the genocide.
Illegal Immigrants Sue Trump Administration for Detaining Them
A group of illegal aliens filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration last week, claiming Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has retaliated against them for filing asylum claims by keeping them in detention for months in “prison-like” conditions.
The suit was filed on behalf of five people who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border. Three are from West Africa, one is from Honduras, and one is from Guatemala.
All have claimed that they have a "credible fear" of persecution or torture if they were returned to their own country, and are asking for asylum in the United States.
Judicial Watch, which uncovered evidence in 2013 that illegal immigrants were being coached to claim asylum to get around U.S. immigration laws, said the lawsuit appears to be a reaction to a crackdown on abuse of asylum.
"It appears that the 'credible fear' gravy train has finally come to a halt, and illegal immigrants and their open border allies are suing the Trump administration to return to the good ole days," Irene Garcia, a researcher with the watchdog organization wrote.
The number of people seeking asylum in the U.S. rose sevenfold in just five years during the Obama administration, from about 5,000 a year to 36,000. Judicial Watch reported in 2013 that a veteran immigration lawyer in Texas said of asylum: "It's like the magic word. Say it and the government has to give...
Why ‘Indigenous Peoples’ Day’ Is Far Worse Than Columbus Day
Los Angeles and Austin, Texas have now joined the list of liberal-run cities that have eradicated Columbus Day from their calendars and replaced it with “Indigenous Peoples’ Day.” In LA, the desire to dis the European discoverer was so strong that they rejected a compromise proposal to keep Columbus Day and add “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” elsewhere.
“We need to dismantle a state-sponsored celebration of genocide of indigenous peoples,” said Chrissie Castro of the LA Native American Indian Commission. “To make us celebrate on any other day would be further injustice.”
Most Americans don’t agree. A new Marist poll finds 56 percent of Americans admire Columbus and support Columbus Day. They reject the idea that it’s a holiday about slaughter and enslavement. However, if we really want to commemorate horrifying, unspeakable violence and oppression in the Americas, I’ve got the perfect holiday: “Indigenous People’s Day.”
“Long before the white European knew a North American continent existed, Indians of the Northern Plains were massacring entire villages,” says George Franklin Feldman in the book “Cannibalism, Headhunting and Human Sacrifice in North America: A History Forgotten.” “And not just killed, but mutilated. Hands and feet were cut off, each body’s head was scalped, the remains were left scattered around the village, which was burned.”
Less Pocahontas and More Blood Sacrifice
When thinking of pre-Columbian America, forget what you’ve seen in the Disney movies. Think “slavery, cannibalism and mass human sacrifice.” From the Aztecs to the Iroquois, that was life among the indigenous peoples before Columbus arrived.
For all the talk from the angry and indigenous about European slavery, it turns out that pre-Columbian America was virtually one huge slave camp. According to “Slavery and Native Americans in British North America and the United States: 1600 to 1865,” by Tony Seybert, “Most Native American tribal groups practiced some form of slavery before the European introduction of...

Soiled ISIS Fighters Surrendering In Droves: ‘It Really Means This Is The End’
Many of the dejected fighters reportedly have soiled themselves and await interrogation and trial by Kurdish authorities. The mass surrender of the terrorist group is particularly unusual for ISIS, who’ve made a point of fighting to the very last man. In many cases the group made the last days of battle painful for the opposing force by deploying waves of suicide bombers.
One fighter recalled to TheNYT that the ISIS governor of the town of Hawija himself gave the order to surrender in mass. “I believe if the governors are telling us to surrender, it really means that this is the end,” he lamented.
“The speed at which the enemy gave up surprised me,” Operation Inherent Resolve commander Lt. Gen. Paul Funk told USATODAY after the battle. “Their leaders are abandoning them.”
Hawija was the last stronghold the terrorist group in Iraq after nearly three years of pitched battle with the Iraqi Security Forces, the Kurdish Peshmerga, and Iranian-backed Shiite militias. Still, the battle against the terrorist group is not over yet in Iraq. Operation Inherent Resolve noted Thursday that the Iraqi Security Forces “are concurrently conducting operations in Western Anbar province and have already secured the towns of Anah, Rayhanah, and Akashat.”
The terrorist group is also mounting a losing campaign in Syria, where the majority of its capital has fallen to the U.S.-backed...
Everyone Knew Harvey Weinstein Was Harassing Women While They Took His Donations
As Democrat politicians and the DNC took wads of cash from Weinstein, all the while railing about women’s rights, his sexual harassment of women was an open secret. Their claim that Republican men don’t respect women like they do falls flat.
Hollywood, the media and Democrat politicians are mostly ignoring the Weinstein sexual harassment scandal, even as new information comes out. According to Jake Tapper and others it was an open secret in Hollywood, but Tapper, a reporter, never said a word.
Weinstein gave to every Democrat imaginable, including the DNC, Hillary Clinton who has said nothing, Chuck Schumer, Kirsten Gillibrand, Barack Obama, Elizabeth Warren and many others. President Obama sent Malia to intern with Weinstein. Michelle Obama praised him, calling him a wonderful man. This was despite the open secret.
The left is beating off the allegations of hypocrisy. It rolls off their backs as they turn it on Republicans. As Weinstein is attacked, Democrats pick out Republicans they feel have sexually harassed women — for which they often have little or no evidence. Weinstein has basically admitted his transgressions.
The powerhouse movie mogul visited the White House thirteen times although they had to know about this open secret. The Obamas remain silent.
Gloria Allred’s daughter, Lisa Bloom, is defending this molester of women, although she claims to be a feminist lawyer and staunch woman’s rights activist like her mother. Bloom has attacked Republican men for sexual harassment with little or no evidence, but for Weinstein, a Democrat mega-donor, she offers the excuse that...
Leftist Student Could Face FELONY For Stealing Fellow Student’s MAGA Hat
A college student who ripped the “MAGA” hat off another student and demanded he be punished for it could herself be facing felony charges for the incident. Looks like being a thief isn’t something all Leftists can get away with.
Edith Macias, a student at the University of California at Riverside tore the “Make America Great Again” hat off of Matthew Vitale’s head on Sept. 27, as seen in a video he captured.
In the nearly ten-minute-long video – obtained by Campus Reform, you can see that Macias is goes to campus officials and demand that Vitale be punished for wearing the hat. All the while, Vitale is just pleading for the return of his property.
“So this guy thought it would be a good idea to go into a conference wearing this f***ing hat,” Macias states as she walks into the Student Life department at the school. “Look at the kind of sh*t he’s wearing, You know what this represents? This represents genocide — genocide of a bunch of people.”
Vitale then tries to explain that “you do not get to take other people’s property that is legally theirs in this country,” to which the unidentified thief replies, “man, f*** your laws.”
“Do you have any f***ing conscience?” she goes on to ask, questioning why Vitale would dare to wear a MAGA hat on campus and telling him that his “f***ing freedom of speech is genocide, homeboy.”
“Y’all are just gonna mediate this and make it so like, ‘Oh, we’re all OK here. Freedom of speech.’ Whatever. How about we actually think about what’s going on?” Macias says to school officials while holding Vitale’s hat. “I f***ing hate this country. I hate it, and I’m not leaving. I’m staying here because there’s sh*t that needs to...

Victory! Department of Defense purges SPLC information from its training material
The Daily Caller News Foundation obtained an email from the Department of Justice in which Brian J. Field, assistant U.S. attorney for the DOD Civil Division, confirmed that the DOD Office of Diversity Management and Equal Opportunity has removed “any and all references to the SPLC in training materials used by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI).”
The DOD founded the DEOMI in 1971 (then called the Defense Race Relations Institute) after an inter-service task force examined the causes and potential cures of racial turbulence within the military. Today, the institute provides race relations education to the members of the Armed Forces.
Under the Obama administration, DEOMI officers used SPLC data to identify high-profile Christian ministries as domestic hate groups at briefings. In the spring of 2013, a United States Army Reserve presentation included a slide, which lectured the servicemen and women that “religious extremism is not limited to any single religion, ethnic group, or region of the world.” Another slide, drawing on the SPLC’s definition of ‘”ate,” included Evangelical Christianity, Orthodox Judaism, Catholicism, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in the same category with al Qaeda, the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas, and the Ku Klux Klan.
In 2013, a controversial 637-page DEOMI manual, used as a textbook during a three month course taught at Patrick Air Force Base in Florida, stated:
Simply put, a healthy, white, heterosexual, Christian male receives many unearned advantages of social privilege, whereas a black, homosexual, atheist female in poor health receives many unearned disadvantages of social privilege.
Military personnel were taught that statements like “This is a land of equal opportunity” were simply “tactics of denial” that some white people use; and that “unfair economic advantages and disadvantages created long ago by institutions for whites, males, Christians, etc.” are the drivers of socioeconomic privilege today.
“In one incongruous section after another,” wrote Noel S. Williams in the American Thinker, “the manual condemns white privilege as though the infamous preacher Jeremiah Wright were the author.”
An Equal Opportunity officer, who provided Fox News columnist Todd Starnes with a copy of the manual, insisted he remain anonymous for fear of reprisal. The officer strongly objected to the DEOMI’s reliance on the SPLC for information on extremist groups, saying, “I’m participating in teaching things that are...
