Socialism and antisemitism will continue to fester and grow if we don’t stand up and reform our universities, reinforce our basic values, and balance our social media, writes @Mark_Penn and Andrew Stein on.wsj.com/4eGwXMX

After all the crazy stuff democrats have backed in the last few years it is time for them to back America and its wiping out of the Iran nuclear facility. Iran is a genocidal authoritarian regime whose nuclear program was never going to stop unless destroyed and whose goal has…

All Jews need to recognize the unique role that Donald Trump has played to allow Israel to remove the threat of Iranian nuclear weapons that neither Biden nor Harris would have had the courage to do. wsj.com/opinion/trump-…

My stomach churns At seeing a foul-mouthed Hunter Biden attack the world. He is out of jail only because DaD pardoned him after he carried out a $20 million shakedown of shady foreign interests with the consent and participation of Joe Biden. And he paid no taxes ion it. This…

Listening to Mamdani Try to explain his position on “Globalize the Intifada” you realize that he calls Israel an occupied territory and does not even recognize its right to exist as a nation state. He is beyond extreme on the issue. Globalize the Intifada stands for the murder…

Syrian Human Rights Organization reports that more than 250 Druze have been massacred since the latest attacks. There are reports that the government backed terrorists have kidnapped and raped girls under the age of 10 in front of their parents. It’s October 7th all over again.…

Tariffs As I predicted the impact of tariffs on the economy was way over estimated by the media. The math is we import about 11 per cent of our goods and so the impact, outside of certain sectors, is limited to about one per cent c. And the fed should not consider them…

Exploiting the Museum and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising to sanitize “globalize the intifada” is outrageous and especially offensive to survivors. Since 1987 Jews have been attacked and murdered under its banner. All leaders must condemn its use and the abuse of history.

The Holocaust was the gravest moral catastrophe of the 20th century. Its legacy was so devastating that the global Jewish population has yet to fully recover. Today, there are approximately 14.8 million Jews worldwide—still fewer than the 16.6 million alive in 1939, on the eve of…

Mamdani Alert Zohan Mamdani is a fusion of socialism, antisemitism and Marxism dressed up to appeal to a social media generation that has become disconnected from history and reality. The irony is that his support comes from people like himself — well off, well educated young…

Bills Will this bill be a success or a failure? Forget the partisan verbiage. Only time will tell. The Democratic Inflation Reduction Act was a disastrous oxymoron. It contained trillions of dollars of new spending and helped push inflation and high interest rates. This…

.@Mark_Penn: “A city of 8 million is being driven left by 400,000 votes—thanks to a rigged primary moved to the dead of summer, with a system no one understands. Activists win, voters lose. This is a disaster for Democrats if they don’t fix it before Election Day.”

Powell should cut interest rates and stimulate the economy. Tariffs are a one time item that become factored into the economy and are not the kind of inflation the fed is meant to fight — a one per cent sales tax would have the same effect and the fed would not be holding back…

Democrats like Reed and Kaine have major egg on their face (unlikeFetterman, Torres and Gottheimer) for failing to unify the country behind the Iran strikes and instead spreading fear, uncertainty and doubt. That was an opportunity to regain some footing and stand behind the…

Democratic Rep. Josh Gottheimer praises the strikes on Iran as “critical and decisive action to protect America, and freedom and democracy at home and around the world.”

Paradox Ironically, the past interventions by the US from Libya to Bosnia have been to take out strong-man dictatorships that were holding back the Muslim Brotherhood and so we typically created an opportunity for them. This would be the first time that we are pushing back on…

Outcry Where is the outcry over Iran launching 100 missiles a day into Israeli population centers? Where’s the Stop the Missiles signs on our streets and campuses? Nowhere of course. Because behind all those “globalize the intifada” signs was a desire by the left to eliminate…

I doubt President Trump has forgotten this story in Politico on Nov 8th, 2024: NEW YORK — The Iranian government ordered an operative to assassinate Donald Trump before the 2024 election, Manhattan federal prosecutors said Friday, the latest in a string of assassination plots…

Iranian Fascism Iran is simply one of the most despised regimes on earth. It is a dictatorship that rules by force not consent under the cover of religion. Basic human rights do not exist whether it’s freedom of expression, assembly, press or women’s rights. They even recently…

Iran While Israel attacked military targets, Iran is attacking cities with its missiles and so this is all out war.
