With EDDINGTON, Ari Aster did something I hardly believed was possible anymore. He made a political satire that everyone across the spectrum can appreciate and learn from. theamericansaga.com/p/eddington-is…
This is a sign that ICE has demoralized recruits
Ah shit here we go

In a recent study of Twin Cities area Jews, 60% of all Minneapolis Jews said they feel *little to no* connection to Israel. (scholarworks.brandeis.edu/esploro/output…)
New: Minneapolis Jews sound an early alarm on Democratic Party endorsement of DSA lawmaker in mayoral race jewishinsider.com/2025/07/minnea…
Olmert also offered his thoughts on growing international criticism of Israel re: Gaza, the recent killings of Palestinians seeking aid, the prospects for a cease-fire, Israel’s recent conflict w/ Iran, and why he believes Netanyahu needs to be "careful" in his relations w/ Trump
NEW: I spoke with former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert today. We covered a lot—including his recent criticism of Israel's approach to the war in Gaza, and why he’s avoided explicitly leveling allegations of genocide and ethnic cleansing. foreignpolicy.com/2025/07/22/for…
All based on his extreme merit as an individual no doubt
Hunter Biden was a professor at Georgetown for 4 yrs. Has a law degree from Yale. Why didn’t the media ever tell us that? Or the boards he sat on? Or the absolute brilliant man he is?
I wonder if even one of these people will ditch the itinerary and talk to a real live Palestinian in Hebron or Bethlehem
UPDATE: 550 MAGA INFLUENCERS TO BE INVITED ON ISRAEL TRIP! This Israeli operation must be called out! Who got the call? 📞 H/t @hippyresident
Jason is obviously right here. I've seen a lot of people point out that it would be crazy-hypocritical for this dude, given his stated values, to be upset about his free speech. True enough! But the more important question is what the rest of us should think, given *our* values.
Why do people revel in people getting fired while they're not at work? The control people give bosses in their lust to be the all seeing eye is quite fascinating . Sure, this dude hella sucked, but I'd hate to lose my job because of my political affiliations.
Heterodox thinkers, repeating Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan slogans for 60 years.
In media, there are vast rewards for moving right - status, job security, media platforms. Doing the opposite incurs pain - defunding, deplatforming, denigration, job insecurity. Not surprisingly, many go for the reward, not the pain. It's why this kind of story is so banal.…
The Church is now Hamas?
Hamas and the Vatican are in bed together. They both lied about the church destruction and the deaths in order to drive a wedge between Israel and the Biblical Christians that stand with them.
Because that's what living under apartheid is. You don't get a vote for the government who governs your life, so why should they care about you?
Father Jack-Nobel Abed, the parish priest, has filed nearly 14 complaints at the Israeli police station in Sha’ar Binyamin about repeated settler harassment and attacks on property. Israeli police have done absolutely nothing. (12\15)
“Would you like spicy?” CUOMO: “Yeah.” Where was this Cuomo the past six months? Alas it is too late now to pivot.
Great day in the Bronx talking to New Yorkers about the housing crisis and how we can work to make the City more affordable for all
Ynet: The Israeli Medical Association (IMA) has called on Israeli military and government officials to ensure the entry of medical supplies and basic humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip amid escalating global criticism. "On Tuesday, IMA Chairman Professor Zion Hagay sent…
Here is Senator Dr. Roger Marshall’s now-deleted tweet when the Panasonic plant was announced. You can’t just lie!
I’ve said from the beginning that this was going to be a boondoggle. EVs (especially the batteries) are terrible for the environment and are not economically viable without government giveaways. This plant will only result in higher utility costs for Kansans, and a huge bill…
