Joe Biden showed up at the U.N. General Assembly on September 21 and delivered his prescription for ensuring Israel’s future. Robert Spencer wrote about his speech here, and a report on Biden’s “commitment to Israel’s security” is here: “Biden Says Two-State Solution Is ‘The Only Way’ to End Israeli-Palestinian Conflict,” i24 News, September 21, 2021: President Joe Biden said Tuesday that a sovereign and democratic Palestinian state is the “best way” to ensure Israel’s future. How likely is it that there will ever be a “democratic” Palestinian state? There are right now 22 Arab states. Not one of them...

Even for Congressional Democrats who, in recent years, have shown a growing animosity and even cruelty toward Israel, last week’s effort to remove $1 billion of funding to maintain Israel’s Iron Dome defense system was particularly grotesque. Congressional “Squad” members, led by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and including Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), and Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), pressured the Democratic House leadership to strip funding to Israel for this key military technology that tracks and intercepts incoming rockets and has a success rate of doing so of over 90 percent. It is one thing to seek to...

Blank Check for Socialism Washington, September 22, 2021 By now, you have probably heard about President Biden’s $3.5 trillion “Build Back Better” bill and all the empty promises in it. The truth is that it will do nothing to build our country up. Instead, this is a blank check to take our country into socialism. This bill will change every American’s way of life. It’s filled with radical policy changes that will raise costs on all goods, put the federal government in charge of educating your kids, prioritize climate policy over national security, breach every American’s privacy, and saddle future...

[Catholic Caucus] Angels: Fellow Worshipers in the Liturgy of HeavenLike all ancient liturgical rites of the Church, the traditional Roman rite of Mass—especially if one includes the Asperges me and the Leonine prayer to St. Michael—is full of references and allusions to the holy angels, and more than that, prayers directly addressed to them. To cite all these wonderful texts, let alone comment on them, would make a lengthy article in itself. Since my purpose here is not to analyze the text of the Mass but to present an accessible introduction to the angels, I will pass up this tempting...

The United States is not just dealing with mutations of COVID-19. Our government and our culture have been infected with mutated strains of collectivism and corporate authoritarianism, already engaged in censorship and moving swiftly toward perpetual surveillance and control over our property, our finances, our health care and our most personal decisions. And those who are busy cramming authoritarianism down our gullets are simultaneously maintaining the illusion of our meaningful participation in government. We're being led to believe that we have some control of our representative government and its policies. Meanwhile, our elected officials make backroom deals and ignore our...

Then-Attorney General William Barr reportedly told then-President Trump that suburban voters “think you are a f---ing asshole” and urged the president to change his image in order to win reelection, Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward said in an interview on Wednesday, detailing an episode from his new book, “Peril.” “He wanted Trump to win in 2020, last year, but he gave him some very candid advice. And Barr said in an extraordinary meeting with Trump last year — President Trump — Barr said, ‘I travel around the country as much as any Cabinet officer, and you have support there. I...

September 19th was International Talk-Like-a-Pirate Day, a whimsical holiday which we were encouraged to celebrate by using expressions like “Ahoy Matey” and “Avast, ye landlubber!” But is it really now? I mean, is it happening? Instead of buccaneers like Long John Silver and Captain Kidd, we have pirates like Peg Leg Pelosi and Short on Memory Joe Biden, who want to make us walk the plank into a sea of devalued currency. For some serious fun, how about a National Lie-Like-a-Democrat Day – which we can celebrate by repeating the biggest whoppers that Democrats regularly tell with a straight...

And from the latest chapter of the amazing adventures of Florida Man we have the case of the TDS Florida Man arrested for stalking a woman for the "sin" of wearing an anti-Biden shirt.His name is Ed McGinty acquired a bit of liberal-media fame a year ago as a rare anti-Trump voice in the conservative-oriented town named The Villages Politico hailed McGinty in September 2020 as a potential sign that seniors were turning against Trump in the Sunshine State (note: Trump won Florida in 2020 by a margin of almost three times his 2016 victory).

Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism. The Black Lives Matter movement and the allied criminal justice reform movement which opened jails and decriminalized crimes led to a nearly 30% surge in murders in 2020. The 29.4% increase is historically unprecedented. The worst one-year percentage jump in murders was a 12.7% increase in 1968 during a crime wave that led Democrats and Republicans to embrace tough on crime policies. 1968 was the year that LBJ signed the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets...

U.S. officials are quietly preparing for what they think could be the biggest surge in traffic at the southern border in decades if a Covid restriction that has blocked most migrants for almost two years is lifted Thursday. On a call this week with senior Department of Homeland Security officials, Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas asked whether the department was prepared for a worst-case scenario in which 350,000 to 400,000 migrants cross the border in October, according to two DHS officials familiar with the conversation. A number that high would nearly double the 21-year record reached in July, when more than 210,000...

You Who Choose Permanent Death. Why Do You Do That? By JAG September 30, 2021 Death takes away all your enjoyments, for example eating good tasting food. You're now alive and you enjoy good tasting food. Why you wanna give that up? You ever ate a meal and said, "Wow, that was very good. I really enjoyed that. That was truly good tasting food." You don't want to forever say goodbye to that. You want to keep on saying that, after meals, forever and ever. But in order to forever keep on saying that after meals you must have the...

Bruce Thornton is a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center. Joe Biden was touted by his supporters as the anti-Trump, the seasoned politician and “centrist” who had the experience, gravitas, and governing skills that the radical “demagogue” Donald Trump lacked. Supposedly, Biden also possessed the respect for “democratic norms” and the “empathy” lacking in the abrasive tweetster and crude-talking ex-reality show host. Elect Biden, the pitch went, and the “adults” will be back in charge, the sacred “norms” and “decorum” once again respected, and our status in the world restored. This appeal, of course, depended on hyping...

It was wartime and food was scarce. Leaders of England’s effort to wage war and help the public survive during World War II needed to know: Were the rations in lifeboats adequate for survival at sea? And, among several experiments important for public as well as military heath, how much vitamin C did a person need to avoid the deadly disease scurvy? In one experiment at the Sorby Research Institute in Sheffield, called the “shipwreck” experiment, volunteers were fed only what the navy carried in lifeboats. The grueling experiment resulted in more water and less food being carried in lifeboats....

Ahead of Thursday’s pivotal vote in the House on Joe Biden’s infrastructure bill, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) persisted in his opposition to the trillion-dollar price tag. In a statement on Wednesday, Manchin, who has previously resisted the bill and even publicly called on Democrats to put a “pause” on it, said that he cannot support the trillions of dollars in spending:

You maybe confused by this headline but so are we. USS Freedom (LCS 1), the lead ship of the Freedom-variant Littoral Combat Ship, recognized little more than a decade of naval service during a decommissioning ceremony at Naval Base San Diego this week. It was “envisioned to be a networked, agile, stealthy surface combatant.” but most naval experts agree the program was an expensive failure.

Britain this winter might perform an interesting if discomfiting experiment to find out how deep is its people’s practical commitment to the environment. My guess is that it is not terribly deep. There is much talk of a coming energy crisis if the winter is severe. A possibility exists that the lights will go out, factories will close, and hot water and central heating will be lacking. A population unused to such hardships may express its discontent by means not wholly peaceful or constitutional. Of course, the crisis might not come: the weather might be clement, and the country might...

President Biden on Thursday announced plans to nominate 10 people to the federal bench and four to serve on local Washington, D.C., courts. It's the eighth round of nominees announced by Biden, who has now named 53 federal judicial nominees. According to statistics provided by a White House official, 72 percent of the nominees are women; 28 percent are Black; 23 percent are Asian American/Pacific Islanders; and 21 percent are Hispanic. Of the total nominees, 17 – or about a third – are public defenders – and 13 – or a quarter – are civil rights attorneys.
