From many perspectives, Israel is now in a seemingly endless downward spiral. Three EU members – Norway, Ireland, and Spain – recently recognized Palestine as a State. Others indicate they will follow suit. It is unclear what this means, but certainly it is a blow to Israel and its people.

Videos emerged this past weekend of brawls and fights in the streets of Pico-Robertson, a predominantly Jewish neighborhood in Los Angeles. Pro-Hamas protesters gathered outside of the Adas Torah synagogue, where pro-Israel counter-protesters showed up to defend their neighborhood. This led to a volatile encounter, marked by violent altercations and heated exchanges, continuing the escalation from rhetoric to violence by people who have been screaming for nearly a year, “Long Live the Intifada.”

Joe Biden is old.  That wouldn’t be a problem - except he’s the President of the United States and clearly not fully functional. Anyone who has eyes can see as clear as day that Biden’s mental capacity has diminished to the point where continuing to have the power of the presidency is a legitimate danger to the country and the world.  Yet there are Democrat Party loyalists who want to tell you that your eyes are not to be trusted; believe what they say instead.

Two major decisions came down from the Supreme Court this past week: one that has enormous implications on the workings of the Executive branch, and one that in essence won’t change anything at all. For reasons purely political and not based in reality, the media and Democrats are reacting completely differently than they should be to these decisions.

Investigations have resulted in barely a wrist slap. Defunding colleges that are hotbeds of Jew-hatred should be the goal, not futile complaints to Washington

(June 24, 2024 / JNS) No institution of higher education in America better exemplifies the way antisemitism has been mainstreamed than the City University of New York. The post-Oct. 7 mayhem and pro-Hamas tent encampments at more prestigious schools like Columbia, Harvard, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Pennsylvania have garnered more headlines in the mainstream press. But on its many campuses throughout the five boroughs, CUNY has become a compelling illustration of how toxic woke ideas like critical race theory and intersectionality have normalized prejudice against Jews.

My friends know that I watch a good political show with the same enthusiasm as a sports fan cheering on a favorite team. Whether it is an acceptance speech, inauguration, prime time address, or the State of the Union Address, this country has a long history of memorable oratory fireworks. Last week’s presidential debate between incumbent Joe Biden and his opponent Donald Trump was historic for being the first rematch debate with two of the oldest candidates for the office, and questions whether Biden’s age was a factor in his lackluster performance.
