If you want an honest, unbiased view of what is happening out there, do yourself a favor and avoid the New York Times. The latest example? I’ll let Joseph Vazquez, at newsbusters.org, tell you via this excerpt from his latest article: The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) released a report July 30 finding that GDP increased a solid three percent in the second quarter, dwarfing...

Earlier today, I blogged about the picture of a gaunt, deformed Gazan child held poignantly in his mother’s arms, that was supposed to show how Israel was starving children. At that time noted that it turned out the child had severe conditions unrelated to starvation…and that the media posting those pictures were leaving out pictures of his brother, who was clearly not...
New York City mayoral candidate zohran mamdani just spoke about the horrific shooting at 345 Park Avenue that resulted in the loss of four lives. He spent almost half his time lamenting the Muslim police officer who was killed, spent far less time on a couple of the other deaths and did not mention at all the security officer who died (his name was Aland Etienne). He did not utter a word of...
hamas is a terrorist entity that started a war it can only “win” if the rest of the world gives it a free pass. Unfortunately, other than the United States, until now there have been very few other countries seeing this situation for what it is. But now there are. And, because they are Arab states (I do not believe this would have happened otherwise) they are dragging much of the...
Take a look at this video, taken at last month’s harvard Law School’s ignorant hate-protest graduation ceremony. Remember: harvard is where these ignorant haters were educated. Now tell me whether, if you are a harvard Law School graduate – maybe a Jewish one – you would be proud to say so anymore. End of blog.
…I know. It’s coming. It’s coming. It’s…. But not this month. From Jeff Cox’s article at cnbc.com, via msn.com: The U.S. economy grew at a much better than expected pace in the second quarter, powered by a turnaround in the trade balance and renewed consumer strength, the Commerce Department reported Wednesday. Gross domestic product, a sum of goods and...
Did you see those poignant, terribly disturbing pictures of a mother holding what appeared to be a child suffering from severe malnutrition – which media around the world immediately posted as “proof” that Israel (not hamas, you see, but Israel) was responsible for starvation, genocide, and whatever other horror they could attach? Here is one of them, from James Clark...
From Max Colchester and Norman Laurence’s article for the Wall Street Journal, via msn.com: British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Tuesday the U.K. would recognize a Palestinian state by September unless Israel takes “substantive steps” to end the war in Gaza, halt annexations in the West bank and commit to the long-term sustainable peace in the Middle East. And what demands does...
Today’s quote comes to us from model Sydney Sweeney. It is the dialogue she was told to use while filming an ad – one of a series featuring her – for American Eagle jeans. As Sweeney zippers up the jeans she says this: “Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color. My genes are blue.” Assuming...
So how does a self-professed socialist celebrate his wedding? Pretty austerely, you’d think – especially if that self-professed socialist is running for Mayor of New York City on a platform that essentially tells rich people they are oppressors who owe a debt to everyone else. But wait: this is zohran mamdani we’re talking about: the socialist whose family was loaded and who...
Every day we hear the world make demands on Israel. Those demands include, but are not limited to, Israel implementing a ceasefire (which Israel has offered numbers of times and have either been rejected outright or countered with conditions that are impossible for Israel to aceept), allow food into Gaza (which Israel has not prevented,- the trucks and supplies sit at the border – but...
Another day, another Trump triumph? Read the beginning of Gabriele Steinhauser’s article at the Wall Street Journal, via msn.com, and decide for yourself (the bold print is mine): The leaders of Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to an “unconditional cease-fire” set to go into effect at midnight following five days of deadly clashes over their disputed border, Malaysian Prime Minister...
Sometimes you read politics-related stories and you can’t believe your eyes. This is one of them. From Mike Lillis’s article at thehill.com: House Democrats are ramping up their town-hall blitz in GOP-held districts over the long summer recess. The strategy is not new, but this time they’re armed with a powerful new talking point: President Trump’s refusal to release the federal...
Yesterday, President Donald Trump met with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The meeting, which lasted only about 75 minutes, resulted in a trade deal that, at least in public, is satisfactory to both sides. Here, from Koen Verhelst and Myah Ward’s article for politico.com, is how the deal was framed: How the EU dashed to Trump’s Scottish hideaway — and got the deal...
Earlier today, I put up a blog titled “The Problem Is hamas”. In it, I enumerated the reasons that hamas is solely responsible for the current plight of Gaza’s citizens. This afternoon I read Seth Mandel’s piece at commentary.org, which I will now post in its entirety. Mr. Mandel hits every point I did, and follows through with more analysis – all of which I agree...
