Once upon a time, there was a good-looking, articulate, young boy named David Duke who attended a conservative elementary school in New Orleans. In Junior High, as an eighth-grade project, he was irresistibly attracted to the subject of segregation. He then attended a military school in Georgia and “by the time he graduated was already a member in good standing of the Ku Klux Klan”––ultimately becoming a grand wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.

Duke as Grand Wizard, c. 1974.

In his self-published 1988 autobiography, My Awakening: A Path to Racial Understanding, Duke stated: “We [Whites] desire to live in our own neighborhoods, go to our own schools, work in our own cities and towns, and ultimately live as one extended family in our own nation. We shall end the racial genocide of integration. We shall work for the eventual establishment of a separate homeland for African Americans, so each race will be free to pursue its own destiny without racial conflicts and ill will.”

But Duke was an equal-opportunity hater, sharing his contempt for Blacks with–– ta da! –– Jews!

“The Jews are trying to destroy all other cultures––as a survival mechanism–– the only Nazi country in the world is Israel,” he once explained to his many followers.

While numerous elected officials and civil-rights leaders routinely condemned Duke’s aggressive, in-your-face racism, he nevertheless enjoyed remarkably widespread support, similar to but not the same wildfire effect as today’s anti-Semitism.

The support he did receive emboldened him to run for public office. While he ran unsuccessfully as a Democrat for the Louisiana state legislature in 1970s and ‘80s, and for the1988 Democratic presidential nomination, after he became a Republican he finally won a seat in the Louisiana House of Representatives.

To this day, Duke continues to endorse candidates, including Tulsi Gabbard for president in 2019 and Donald Trump for President in 2024––both of whom thoroughly repudiated both Duke and his endorsement.

In 2024, Duke lauded anti-Israel activists. He also praised Nick Fuentes––the Holocaust-denying, Nazi sympathizing podcaster––calling him a comrade in the fight for “our people” against “Jewish supremacism.”

This is the same Nick Fuentes who enjoyed a fawningly friendly interview with Tucker Carlson…the same Tucker Carlson who VP Vance finds it impossible to repudiate, in spite of Carlson’s escalating vilification and calumny toward both Jews and Israel, as just one of countless examples is his recent interview with Ian Carroll, a conspiracy theorist who falsely claimed, among other smears, that  “Israel did 9/11.”

True, VP Vance’s friendship with Carlson goes back decades. He acknowledges that Carlson featured him on his Fox TV show dozens of times and petitioned President Trump personally at Mar-a-Lago to make Vance his VP.

But all that was well before Fox fired Carlson in 2023, and also before Carlson became a modern-day version of Father Charles Coughlin, obsessed with Jews to the point of pathology and using all of his energies to spew the hatred that lives within––indeed, enlivens––his mind and heart 24/7.

A final word about Duke…. when it came to expressing his deep animus toward Blacks and Jews, he never waffled, never hesitated, never obfuscated, and never accumulated the kind of splinters that VP Vance has clearly amassed from his refusal to condemn the rank racism spewing from his friend Carlson and others and his insistence on sitting and staying put and not moving a millimeter off of that proverbial splinter-spiked fence.

NOT GOING UNNOTICED

In his response recently to conservative radio host Scott Jennings, Vance dismissed the idea that conservatives should actively guard their ranks against antisemitism, framing his answer in the most politically correct terms. “I think we need to reject all forms of ethnic hatred, whether it’s antisemitism, anti-Black hatred, anti-white hatred,” he said. The only things missing from his response were three little words: Jewish, Israel, Zionist.

According to writer Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz, “Among Jewish conservatives, frustration is mounting over Vance’s reluctance to condemn these figures. Daniel Flesch, a Heritage policy analyst, criticized the vice president for equating antisemitism with other forms of prejudice, calling it ‘effectively the equivalent of @TheDemocrats’ ‘…and Islamophobia’ response.’ Flesch stressed that antisemitism requires specific attention, separate from other social grievances.”

Evangelical leader Laurie Cardoza-Moore, president of Proclaiming Justice to the Nations, issued a scathing statement in response to Vance’s interview. “Tucker appears to have Vance in a trance,” she said. “It’s time for JD Vance to take a moral, Christian stand on antisemitism. There is no place for double talk on this matter.”

Cardoza-Moore continued, clearly alluding to VP Vance’s obdurate refusal to condemn––and sever relationships with––Tucker Carlson, who a prominent Jewish Group just named “Anti-Semite of the Year,” as well as Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, and others in their malignant orbit.

“You don’t get to condemn hatred, while befriending the haters,” she stated. “This is not about canceling people; it’s about advocating for the Judeo-Christian values upon which our Republic was founded.”

According to writer, attorney, former IDF officer and former NYPD officer Micha Danzig, “In moments of political stress, the most revealing test of leadership is not rhetoric but refusal: what a leader will not tolerate, what he or she will not excuse, and what they will not leave unnamed.

That is why Vice President J.D. Vance’s persistent failure to confront antisemitism on the populist right must be treated as a primary concern, not a side issue.”

And according to conservative commentator Evan Sayet: “Vance had an opportunity at just the essential moment to oppose the hate and the lies of Owens, Carlson, Bannon, etc., but in Vance’s case, he flew cover for them, he turned on those who did dare to speak out.”

WHAT????

All of a sudden, out of the blue a few days ago, who shows up at the White House to attend President Trump’s meeting with oil executives where he planned to discuss how to acquire the largest oil reserves in the world in Venezuela?

None other than Tucker Carlson! He who spent the previous week vilifying the president and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio for their smashingly successful operation in Venezuela, deposing the drug-pushing dictator Nicolas Madura after 13 years of a tyrannical reign, which saw one of the richest countries in the world devolve into a third-world country under socialism/communism.

Who invited him? Initially, Tucker Carlson’s business partner, Neil Patel, stated that the president himself had invited Carlson to this important, high-level meeting. But within minutes, conservative activist Laura Loomer debunked that lie.  And it didn’t take long for Loomer to report that, indeed, @NeilPatelTDC just confirmed with the White House that this is false. President Trump isn’t the person who invited Tucker Carlson to the White House.

“This is outrageous,” Loomer said. “Tucker Carlson is a virulent Jew hater and Islamic mouthpiece, and he has no business being in the Oval Office. Truly disgusting. What a hypocrite Tucker truly has become.”

So, who extended the invitation? Who even has an ongoing and apparently close relationship with Carlson? Ummm… is it a wild guess to say VP Vance?

Is this why President Trump, just the other day, felt compelled to state in no uncertain terms: “There is no room for antisemites in the MAGA movement…We don’t need them, we don’t like them.”

And isn’t it significant that in the same interview, the president refused to say who would be the best candidate to replace him?

Talk about a none-too-subtle swipe at you-know-who!

That would be VP Vance, who I have now labeled the dork! Dork has many definitions, but to me it is a do-nothing dweeb, very good at posturing, but not so good at pretending he is someone he is not, i.e., an unbiased, America-First, Make-America-Great-Again, rock-ribbed American patriot.

Instead, going strictly on his statements and his actions––what other measures of the man are there? ––he is a stealth figure too disturbingly aligned with the in-your-face racists among us, too timid to repudiate their racism, too weak in character to stand firmly with our most trusted ally, Israel, and, frankly, too dorky to even be considered for the august and most important position on earth, the President of the United States.

We had the Duke, now we have the Dork… both colossal losers!

January 4, 2026

At one time in my life, I was an operating-room nurse, both participating in and witnessing the things that just about every person on earth can’t stand to think about.

So, I can say with some authority that splinters in particularly sensitive areas of the body––often the kind that happen when sitting on a fence––can cause significant discomfort. And removing them requires a recovery period that involves quite a bit of post-op pain.

Metaphorically speaking, VP JD Vance has been sitting for quite a while on a splintery fence, trying to camouflage his dislike of Jews and Israel with fancified language, while at the same time, none-too-subtlety affirming the thinking and virulent attitudes of the most malignant anti-Semites in our current body politic. A dramatic example is his utter failure to condemn the ongoing––indeed, daily––manic rantings of Tucker Carlson, who appears to have been born again as a rabid Jew- and Israel hater.

In several recent incidents in which Carlson’s blatant Jew hatred was on display, VP Vance’s reaction was as bland as white bread. He didn’t want to take part in Republican “infighting,” he said. And when Politico exposed racist and antisemitic text messages sent by members of Young Republican clubs last month, VP Vance said that the repulsive behavior of these 20- and 30-year-old full-grown adults––many of them married and with children––were “what kids do.”

Similarly, Mr. Vance was thunderously mute after learning that his close friend, Mr. Carlson, was interviewed recently in Doha, where he claimed that Israel was “a completely insignificant country,” with “no resources” and … that the US has “no overriding strategic interest” in Israel, and then went on to ask: “What are we getting out of this? Nothing.”

ONE-WAY CLUELESSNESS

Mr. Vance––in a stunning display of political cluelessness––obviously thought that his waffling and double-talking––his fence-sitting––was working. But it wasn’t. And it didn’t take long for numerous media outlets, among them Newsmax.com,  The Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA),  TimesofIsrael.com, et al, to start questioning what appeared to be a distinctly negative attitude toward both Jews and Israel.

This has been followed by somewhat of an avalanche of articles––from publications left, right and center––questioning not only Mr. Vance’s judgement and credibility, but also, by inuendo, his sanity!

• Leaders excusing antisemitism dig their own political grave | The Jerusalem Post
• D. Vance’s Bad Answer to an Anti-Semitic Question – The Atlantic
• JD Vance’s Israel Tightrope Is Fraying | Perspective – Newsweek
• American conservatism and “the Jewish Question” by Melanie Phillips

In Why Jews know they can’t trust JD Vance anymore, writer Adam Scott Bellos opines that, “There are moments in politics when a man’s silence is louder than anything he has ever said. JD Vance has reached that moment.”

“For months now,” Bellos continues, “Jews who have long identified with the conservative movement — philanthropists, activists, donors, veterans of the Reagan, Bush, and Trump eras — have tried to give him the benefit of the doubt. We told ourselves he was new, that he was ‘finding his voice,’ that his flirtation with isolationist rhetoric and his awkward handling of antisemitism were simply missteps. But at a certain point, ambiguity becomes its own kind of message. And in 2025, ambiguity about antisemitism and Israel is not caution. It is complicity.”

TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE

I, for one,   hope that the entire American electorate realizes that Mr. Hillbilly Elegy is deeply unfit for the U.S. presidency he aims for and, in fact, has brought shame to the august office of the vice-president by failing to condemn his famous and famously racist friend Tucker Carlson, whose entire career, it appears, is now committed to obsessively, even fanatically, vilifying, lying about, and condemning both Jews and Israel.

But VP Vance––who employs Carlson’s son as his Press Secretary––finds it difficult, actually impossible, to cut off his relationship with this colossal anti-Semite, in the same way, it is obvious, he would not cut off his relationship with a “friend” who used the “n” word every time he referred to a Black person, or who used the expression “raghead” every time he spoke of a Muslim.

But he certainly wasn’t shy about lambasting Nick Fuentes, the Hitler-infatuated, Stalin-admiring political commentator when he called Vance a “race traitor” for marrying Usha Vance, a Yale-educated lawyer of Indian descent.

In fact, demonstrating yet another facet of his personality, VP Vance clearly rejected the King’s English when during a recent interview, he pronounced that, “Anyone who attacks my wife, whether their name is Jen Psaki or Nick Fuentes, can eat s***. That’s my official policy as vice president of the United States.”

Can you imagine the universal cringing that would take place if he was on an even bigger world stage than he has now blurting out such vulgarity?

But at the same press conference, VP Vance, clearly smelling the anti-Vance sentiment in the country, finally addressed the one form of bigotry about which he has had nothing to say. “Antisemitism and all forms of ethnic hatred have no place in the conservative movement,” he announced, somewhat robotically, as if the words were written for him and he had to spit them out, as he would after gargling, or perhaps more accurately, as he would after an acid-reflux episode.

IF IT WALKS LIKE A DUCK…

According to Jonathan Tobin, editor-in-chief of the Jewish News Syndicate, at the recent Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest in Phoenix, AZ, VP Vance “had a chance to distinguish his national conservative vision from the views of Fuentes and Carlson, who seem to have a lot more in common with left-wing antisemites and anti-Zionists like New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani than with Trump or other conservatives these days.

“It wouldn’t have taken much to do so…. But he didn’t… by passing on a golden opportunity to draw a line in the sand between his ideas and those of right-wingers who share the left’s hatred for Jews, he’s telling us that he wants their votes.

“… Vance picked a side,” Tobin goes on. “And it was the one that did not seek to establish any limits that might exclude those who have articulated antisemitism or, like Carlson, are at war with the idea of a Judeo-Christian heritage, which is the foundation of political conservatism.”

PREPPING FOR THE PROCEDURE

It could be that Mr. Vance’s white-bread disclaimer about anti-Semitism is a signal that he is ready for a splinterectomy, ready to stop waffling and to start rejecting the florid racists in his own Party.

It could even be that he has already undergone the procedure and was able to attend Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest because the anesthesia had not fully worn off… or the pain medication had successfully kicked in.

We will only know is he stays the course, and we will also know by what he says and does if he scales that fence again and invites another bundle of splinters into his, um, body.

THE COMPETITION

With so many strong contenders for POTUS in the wings––Texas Senator Ted Cruz, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton, Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, and possibly others––President Trump will have an easy choice if VP Vance gets back on that fence. He took a huge chance selecting him for VP in the first place, knowing that Mr. Vance spent years, according to Antonio Pequeño IV of Forbes Magazine, calling President Trump  “reprehensible,” “cynical” and privately suggested he could be “America’s Hitler.”

Adam Scott Bellos describes the ideal scenario for people who consider the American-Israeli relationship vital to our national security and the Trump-style support for Jews and Israel literally life-saving, especially since Jews all over the world are now weathering the greatest pandemic  of anti-Semitism since the 1930s and 1940s when Hitler’s deadly Holocaust murdered fully one half of the Jews in the entire world.

“What the Jews need from JD Vance is not perfection,” Bellos writes. “We do not need him to memorize every Israeli talking point or endorse every policy of any government in Jerusalem. We need something far more straightforward and far more foundational: We need to know that the man who may soon lead the Republican Party does not see Jews and the State of Israel as a problem to be ‘managed’ in his coalition — but as allies central to his vision of America.”

December 12, 2025

“Maybe he had a stroke,” a nurse friend told me as she theorized about Tucker Carlson’s seemingly bizarre transformation from a rock-ribbed conservative commentator to a flaming anti-Semite whose hatred of both Jews and Israel found him interviewing––and nodding in delirious agreement with––fervid Hitler and Stalin admirer Nick Fuentes, among many other rabid racists.

Another friend, who is rich in coining aphorisms, said: “Show me a racist at 80, I’ll show you a racist at 18!” She explained that people rarely undergo the kind of profound changes that Carlson now exhibits. “His hatred was always there,” she said, “probably a DNA thing or a mother’s-milk thing. But like all cowards, he only came out of the hate-Jews closet when the bandwagon was already rolling.”

AN IRRESISTIBLE ATTRACTION

At this point in what I hope is Carlson’s devolving career, he could interview any bigwig in the world. But in his new incarnation, he is clearly irresistibly attracted to and has chosen to interview––and embrace the views of––some of the most racist people in public life. In one of their exchanges, Fuentes called for the execution of “perfidious Jews” and told Carlson that the great challenge to American social harmony is “organized Jewry.” Carlson, consciously and deliberately, chose not to challenge this outrageous slur.

However, when asked to comment on this ugly back-and-forth, VP Vance said he didn’t want to take part in Republican “infighting.” Uh huh.

Of course he didn’t. After all, Carlson’s 29-year-old son, Buckley, is the White House Press Secretary on Vance’s staff! Can’t get cozier than that!

Writer Kim Ezra Shienbaum elaborates on Carlson’s fulminating hatred, which he then refutes, point by point, with hard, empirical data.

“Tucker’s newest fixation,” Shienbaum states, “is the Middle East,” and he asserts that we are “backing the wrong horse” …that “Israel is a strategic liability: “insignificant,” “resource-poor,” and consuming “the bulk” of U.S. foreign aid.” For Tucker, the U.S.-Israel relationship is not merely misguided but “deeply destructive and humiliating.”

“Tucker’s new direction,” the writer continues, is “underwritten by Qatar’s recent funding of conservative media….” Aha! That old reliable magnet: Follow the Money!

The ugly episode with Fuentes noted above has nothing on the interview Carlson conducted in September with Darryl Cooper, who he introduced as “the most important popular historian working in the United States today.”

It turns out that this amateur historian propounds viciously biased revisionist accounts of both World War II and the Holocaust, and told his host that “British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was the chief villain of the Second World War” and that the Holocaust was “the result of Adolf Hitler and the Nazis simply being in over their heads…They just threw these people into camps, and millions of people ended up dead there.”

Again, Carlson offered no pushback at all, not even a raised eyebrow.

And after this interview, when right-thinking people urged VP Vance to distance himself from Carlson, his spokesman said: “Senator Vance doesn’t believe in guilt-by-association.” Uh huh.

NO MYSTERY

But knowing the history of the warm-and-fuzzy Carlson-Vance relationship explains why VP Vance refuses to distance himself from this born-again racist.

In very concrete ways, as documented by writer Matt Gertz, Carlson, through his aggressive advocacy when he worked for Fox News, actually went against corporate policy when he announced on air: “We don’t endorse a lot of candidates on the show…but occasionally you run into somebody who could actually change things…That’d be J.D. Vance, and he’s running for Senate from Ohio.”

And Carlson didn’t stop there. According to writer Paige Oamek in The New Republic, “Tucker Carlson campaigned for J.D. Vance to be Trump’s pick for vice president.”

“According to Axios,” Oamek continued, “former Fox News host Tucker Carlson and billionaires Elon Musk and David Sacks all began a ‘secret lobbying campaign,’ which involved calling Trump to secure Vance’s position as next in line…”

Right there is the seeming motive to explain why Vance has not taken a principled stand but has chosen to stick with the guy who he no doubt credits, in large part, with his meteoric rise in politics.

Not to omit Gertz’s documentation of the fact that J.D. Vance––even before his run for the Senate––“made 34 appearances on Tucker Carlson Tonight” from August 2017 to 2022.

Doesn’t this lie in the category of “I owe you”? Is that why VP Vance, to this day, refuses to condemn Carlson’s malignant anti-Semitism?

What possible reason/rationale/excuse could he have?

JUST IMAGINE

Indeed, let us imagine that VP Vance’s son was on the payroll of a prominent broadcaster who found his long-suppressed racist voice not against Jews but against Blacks, who interviewed people who routinely engaged in the kind of vicious derogatory stereotypes––tap dancing, watermelon, Ebonics, et al––and who had absolutely no inhibition about lacing every other sentence with the “n” word.

I believe we could count VP Vance’s reaction in the minutes it took him to demand that his speechwriter prepare a statement condemning both the interviewer and his guest, of insisting that the media outlet that employed the interviewer fire him immediately, and that the guest be investigated––and potentially imprisoned––for fomenting the riots and civil disturbances that his toxic words inspired.

Or let’s take the case of the Muslim woman who had her hijab ripped off her head, the assailant calling her a raghead, and then encouraging a crowd of bystanders to stand around and exhort her to “get out of our country!”

Again, would it take minutes, or only seconds, for VP Vance to take aggressive action against this outrage?

These are rhetorical questions, because everyone knows the answer.

Clearly, it is only the vehemence and calumny and threatening comments against Jews that VP Vance is unable to respond to in a way that a U.S. Vice President and a presumptive presidential candidate should have responded to immediately and aggressively and as a true enemy of all racism, not just the hatred that he selectively prefers to pay attention to.

But both the public and the media are onto the VP’s strange behavior, which is why today he is being forced to answer question after question after question about rightwing anti-Semitism––including presumptively his own––from numerous media outlets, including tjvnews.com, Newsmax.com,  The Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA),  NBC News,  TimesofIsrael.com, on and on and on.

IF IT WALKS LIKE A DUCK…

According to Newsmax.com, “Vice President JD Vance is forcefully rejecting warnings from within his own party about rising antisemitism on the political right, placing himself in direct contrast with Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas and other Republicans who say the threat is real and growing.”

“Vance’s attempt to minimize the problem,” the article continues, “cannot be separated from his political alliances. He remains close with Carlson…” who has “repeatedly questioned U.S. support for Israel” and “claimed that Jews control the banking system, Congress, and even President Donald Trump. He also claimed that Israel was actively engaged in genocide in Gaza…”

The article also cites Vance’s recent trip to Israel where, “rather than offering unqualified support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — long a pillar of conservative foreign policy — Vance struck a more critical tone” …emphasizing “missteps by the Netanyahu government” and providing “a message [that] contrasts sharply with the Trump administration’s efforts to position itself as a bulwark against antisemitism…”

According to Nationalmemo.com ‘s writer Alex Henderson, “Carlson is dragging J.D. Vance down into the neo-Nazi fever swamp,”

“Ironically,” Henderson states, “the politician Carlson is harming most with his antics is the person he wants to succeed Trump: Vice President JD Vance.”

“Thus far,” the article continues, “Vance has done nothing to distance himself from this kind of politics. When Politico exposed racist and antisemitic text messages sent by members of Young Republican clubs last month, the vice president forgivingly characterized the appalling behavior of these 20- and 30-somethings as “what kids do.”  Uh huh.

NOT A FRIEND

Conservative author and commentator Douglas Murray says that Carlson is no conservative and no friend to VP Vance.

Neither was he a friend to the late Charlie Kirk, a passionate supporter of the Jewish state. Murray continues. “Carlson used the aftermath of his friend’s assassination not to demand that the suspect in the shooting be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law…[or] to insist that perhaps the radical left dial down its hateful rhetoric against conservatives and Republicans…”

“No — Carlson chose to use the occasion to deflect attention from the perpetrator seized by the FBI and return to his pet obsession: the Jews. It was Carlson, he notes, who suggested that “the state of Israel had something to do with [Kirk’s] murder.”

And still, VP Vance said nothing.

Speaking of Kirk––Erika Kirk, that is, Charlie’s wife, the Charlie who spoke often and ardently of his love for the Jewish people and Israel––why has she not surgically distanced herself from her “friend” Tucker Carlson and encouraged her good friend VP Vance to do the same?

Is there some kind of malevolent cabal going on––a rightwing Deep State––that is working overtime to sabotage and ultimately topple President Trump, the better to implant their toxic, racist, anti-Semitic agenda at the pinnacle of the American government? After all, it is well known that VP Vance has close ties to Bilderberg globalist elitists and their mountains of money––among them Peter Thiel, Jeff Bezos, Eric Schmidt, and Helmut Schmidt––whose goal is to literally rule the world.

According to writer Jacob Magid, Vance has signaled what his presidency would mean for Jews. He opposed destroying the Iranian nuclear program. Is offended that Jews claim Judea and Samaria. Loves Carlson. Sees no rising anti-Semitism in the GOP. And describes Mamdani as “fascinating”.

In a recent interview, Vance volunteered the names of the progressive lawmakers he has come to respect for various reasons: Senator Bernie Sanders, Representative Ro Khanna and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani.

GUILT BY ASSOCIATION?

According to Abe Greenwald, the executive editor of COMMENTARY, “For those who think it’s at least slightly unfair to count the vice president as a woke-right anti-Semite, I see your point. He has never said that he hates Jews, and he genuinely may not. But his proximity to and support for those who do hate Jews places him on their team. In fact, he’s their most valuable player. It was his choice to stay in the club and, therefore, count himself as one of their number—at least for the time being.”

YES, VIRGINIA…

♦ There really is guilt by association.
♦ There really is good character and bad character.
♦ There really are closet racists out there who are bad for America and bad for America’s closest ally, Israel.

And there really are voters like me who would never ever ever ever vote for JD Vance for President of the United States!

December 4, 2025

A long time ago, in 2006, my son Seth wrote an article ––Why I left the Left–– for RealClearPolitics.com.

When President George W. Bush’s “brain” Karl Rove read it, OMG he invited Seth to lunch at the White House! That was many years after I personally left the Left, but I couldn’t think of a more apt title for this article.

I’m not sure what motivates people to become politically active. In my case, it was reading and hearing and watching events and people who infuriated me, and what I learned about myself is that anger, at least in my case, is not only energizing, but mobilizing.

I vividly remember my first political awakening. When my husband Steve and I and our three children––Seth, the oldest, was in kindergarten––moved to a community on Long Island that was convenient for his business travels by both car and plane, our then-apolitical selves had no idea that the town was a quite-infamous bastion of ultra-leftism.

Even though we had three kids under five, one of the first things we did when we moved into our new digs was to sign up to host a NY Times-sponsored Fresh Air child for several weeks––a Black child from New York City’s poorest neighborhoods, the motive being to provide a kind of suburban summer-camplike treat, which we did for three years.

So, when a vote came up to invite 75 Black children from a school in the neighboring borough of Queens, NY, to be bussed daily to our nationally reputed stellar school system, both Steve and I voted in favor of that proposal. Steve had been a star basketball player on our high school team in New Haven, where he, the only white guy, was affectionately called “the lightbulb” by his teammates.” And I, the co-captain of the cheerleading squad with a Black girl, knew firsthand that what would come to be known as “diversity” was a good thing.

WHAT???

But, to our shock, the referendum was defeated!

That was when I attended my first schoolboard meeting.

Chairing the meeting was the president of the school board, a handsome, articulate and wealthy business owner who presided over the packed-hall meeting with a grim––okay, furious—demeanor.

“The community has spoken,” he intoned with all due solemnity. “But the community is wrong.” His opinion was greeted with wild applause which echoed and affirmed his stern disapproval.

“Therefore,” he continued, “We are going to ignore this vote, and we are going to issue an invitation to the principal of [X school] to let us bus those 75 students to our town to give them the superior education all of our own students benefit from.”

Ummm…

Full disclosure here. I was a chronic truant in high school and never went to college but blissfully married my high school sweetheart (who I met at age 14), who did go to college, and we lived a truly beautiful and fun and fabulous life on the Dartmouth campus––in Sachem Village––for four years, along with 47 other married couples.

But still, when Mr. School Board President said he planned to ignore––actually violate––the vote of the citizens of our town, a little red flag went up in my uneducated head and I said to myself, “I don’t think that’s the way democracy works.” I thought that if a vote didn’t go your way, you worked harder the next time to convince potential voters that your candidate or your idea was the way to go.

And yet, arrogant as he was, and confident that he could get away with this violation, Mr. School Board President never counted on the response of the principal in Queens.

And what did that principal say? He said that he too read the newspapers and monitored the results of the election and that he didn’t want to send his students to a community that didn’t want them!

Kapow! That is called putting Mr. School Board President in his place!

LETTUCE?

Neither Steve nor I were as informed as were the voters from our parents’ generation, but following in their footsteps, we registered as Democrats and cast our first votes for the Democrat John F. Kennedy in 1960. And then, after his brutal assassination, for the Democrat Lyndon B. Johnson.

Just a few years later, in 1970, about three or four Lefty neighbors told me that Cesar Chavez, a labor organizer in California, had called for a boycott of lettuce and that I should not buy even one head of lettuce until the strike was over and Chavez’s demands for better pay and working conditions for the lettuce-picking farm workers were met.

It sounded reasonable to me, and I felt quite virtuous as I entered my local supermarket and studiously avoided the lettuce section to go straight to tomatoes. But guess what I saw? The children of those finger-wagging leftists buying lettuce for their parents!

SWAMPS?

A few years later, in 1973, Steve and I moved to another home in the same community. One of the neighbors who welcomed me said that I had “moved to the right neighborhood.”

Whaddaya mean? I asked.

“We think right,” she said.

It took me more than a month to figure out that “thinking right” meant thinking like a liberal.

I figured that out when a property developer/builder suggested to the board of directors in our small enclave that he construct some low-income housing in the vast lush fields and streams that lay directly adjacent to our homes.

Again, Steve and I had no objection, but the formidable liberal/leftist/progressive factions in our community––those who championed affordable housing, melting-pot communities, and “fairness” to all––immediately formed an SOS (Save Our Swamps) committee to stop any possibility of low-income people from coming within an inch of their hallowed ground.

THE TURNING POINT

Only three years later, Jimmy Carter ran for president and hearing, seeing, witnessing his uncontrolled virulent anti-Semitism––that he strongly and aggressively maintained until his dying day at age 100––made him the first Democrat I ever voted against…for all time!

At that time, leaving the Left was easy, a no-brainer. But after that, it became even easier. And in recent history, voting for a Democrat has become equivalent to voting for anyone endorsed by arch anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan or Communist poster boy, Vladmir Putin!

I had always been––and continue to be––a one-issue voter, namely the safety and security of Israel.

No, Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes and Matt Gaetz and all you other obsessive Jew-and-Israel haters, this is not dual loyalty!

This is the knowledge that one of the tiniest populations of people on earth––and one of the most contributory to mankind––needs and deserves the friendship and support of the most powerful nation on earth, the kind of morally-driven support for an important ally of staunch Western values that has been given to Israel by President Harry Truman who first recognized the state of Israel on May 18, 1948, as well as by President John F. Kennedy, President Lyndon Johnson President Richard M. Nixon, President Ronald Reagan, President George W. Bush, and the undisputed Winner, President Donald J. Trump!

JUST ONE SIMPLE QUESTION

Over the past couple of months, I have had two funny and very revealing experiences. The first was when I joined a thread on Facebook of people who were clearly informed about American politics. As I became more familiar with this group, I learned that all 14 of them were graduate-school friends who had earned PhDs in International Relations from a quite prestigious school.  And all of them were liberals!

Finally, I weighed in. This is what I asked, verbatim: “I’m not going to ask you 12 or 10 or 7 or 5 or even 2 questions. I’m only going to ask you one question: What have Democrats ever done in history to improve our country?”

Surprisingly, three out of the 14 on this thread answered me. And astoundingly, they all had the exact same answer! They said Social Security. They had to go back ninety years––to August 14, 1935––to think of that one single, solitary thing!

And not long after, a nice guy came to my door with a flyer that urged me to vote for the Democrats running for election in our county and state this month. Again, I asked him the exact same question. And again, he had the exact same answer: Social Security!

When I pointed out to him the ancient genesis of this benefit, this very earnest Progressive/socialist told me with pride that Democrats had also initiated the welfare system and food stamps.

IMPOVERISHED

Clearly, the liberals/leftists/progressives among us believe fervently in the nanny state, the state of perpetual dependency, the state of tolerance for all, including the burgeoning masses of anti-Semitic racists, anti-Americans, nihilists, and even admirers of the murderous jihadists of Hamas, to which countless campus and pro-jihadist demonstrations testify.

It still astounds me that there are so many of this species that either cannot see or refuse to acknowledge the rank hypocrisy of their thinking, no better demonstrated then this recent and damning example from the clinically deranged dames on The View.

EMPOWERED

Bottom line, why I left the left is because the leftists/liberals/progressives of the 20^th and 21^st centuries hate the America I love and cherish and thank God for every day for blessing me to be born in this magnificent country, with all of its:

• extraordinary freedoms,
• unlimited opportunities,
• deep respect for law and order,
• exceptional tolerance for the differences among us,
• historical and deserved respect for the patriots in the police departments and military services who put their lives on the line every minute of every day and night––for decades on end––to protect our safety and security.

For everyone who cherishes this laundry list of blessings, the best thing you can do is to leave the Left yourself!

November 20, 2025

Several years ago, my husband Steve and I were watching TV as an American politician of Hispanic descent responded to a challenging question from an antagonistic reporter.

The politician gave such an eloquent and informed answer, sprinkling his response with historical facts, literary allusions, and even dashes of humor, that when he completed his answer, Steve said, “Damn…that is one brilliant guy!”

Reflexively, I expressed what I’ve privately suspected for ages when witnessing similar scenarios: “He’s probably Jewish!”

Steve laughed, but I meant it.

Not long after this episode, I read a book by Jon Entine, a former producer for NBC News and ABC News, and author of several books. In Abraham’s Children,  Entine tells the story of Father Bill Sanchez, a Catholic priest from Albuquerque, New Mexico, who had always been curious about the strange rituals his parents performed in their religiously observant Catholic home, such as lighting Friday night candles, spinning tops at Christmas, not eating pork, et al.

It’s relevant to mention that the Sanchez family migrated from Spain, where centuries before, in 1492––the year Christopher Columbus (who research indicates was probably Jewish) sailed the ocean blue––massive numbers of Sephardic Jews were expelled under threat of death unless they converted to Catholicism.

Historian and writer Eric Buesing says that the Spanish Inquisition, which began in 1478, “forced Jews to adapt or perish. Many chose secrecy, becoming crypto-Jews who practiced their faith in hidden cellars, or adopted Christian rituals publicly while whispering Hebrew prayers in private.”

ENTER DNA

In the early 2000s, Father Sanchez saw a television show that featured the research that Bennett Greenspan, the founder and president of Family Tree DNA, was doing on the then-fledgling subject of DNA, and how that genetic material could determine a person’s probable lineage, roots, country of origin, religion.

Curious, both Father Sanchez and his father volunteered to be subjects and promptly sent samples of their saliva to Mr. Greenspan’s lab in Houston, Texas.

It wasn’t long before he received the results: “You’re Jewish!”

In fact, Father Sanchez’ DNA included a signature associated with the Cohanim priesthood tracing back to biblical figures like Aaron, brother of Moses.

Upon learning this stunning news, Father Sanchez traveled to Israel, learned about and embraced both Jewish history and Jewish culture, and spoke openly and proudly of his Jewish heritage, even under the threat of censure by the Vatican.

But he still loved Jesus and continued being a priest!

There are countless others––including celebrities like Harrison Ford, Julianna Margulies, Rashida Jones, and the singer Pink––who didn’t learn of their Jewish roots  until they were adults. And here is a visual panoramic view of Jewish actresses too numerous to list.

ON THE OTHER HAND

The other end of the spectrum is the likes of Holocaust-denier and Nazi sympathizer Nick Fuentes. According to Wikipedia, Fuentes––who shares an obsessive hatred of Jews and Israel with Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens––all of them the David Dukes of the 21^st century––is of Italian, Irish, and Mexican descent––his father is half Mexican.

I was going to include Ye (aka Kanye West), but to paraphrase the old Connie Francis hit of 1958, he’s sorry now.

Actually, that Wiki website features a huge list of Hispanics who are, in fact, Jewish!

Mmmm, Nick, better not take a gene test and find out that you have Jewish DNA coursing through your veins! I have gleeful schadenfreude imagining his unhinged reaction.

On the other hand, it is not only the Fuenteses out there whose entire life––morning, noon and night––is dedicated to fulminating hatred, or, as the peerless Clarice Feldman has quite accurately identified Fuentes, as a small man with poisonous notions.

There are also plenty of self-hating Jews. Why? Because it’s hard to be a Jew and this ilk is simply not up to it. They are all too eager to join the Jew haters and Israel bashers, hoping––actually, naively believing––that the anti-Semites they align themselves with will like and accept and embrace them.

But they always learn the hard way that the haters they seek approval from may exploit them for their own ends, but that to this species, a Jew is a Jew is a Jew is a Jew––endemically, intrinsically, irredeemably loathsome and detestable.

FOLLOW THE SCIENCE

According to Eric Buesing, the world is more Jewish than we realized.

“DNA testing is revealing that as many as 152 million additional people have Jewish roots. If more people knew they were part-Jewish, would they still hate Jews?”, Buesing asks.

In the thousands of years that the Jewish people lived all over the world in the diaspora, he says, in order to survive, “many Jews became crypto-Jews” ––known as Conversos––hiding their identities, “adopting new names and blending into Christian, Muslim, or secular societies under the shadow of inquisitions, pogroms, and forced conversions.”

Today, he says, “Advances in genetic testing have revealed that millions worldwide …carry traces of Jewish ancestry in their DNA. In the United States alone, an estimated that 15.8 million people, roughly 4.58 percent of the population, may have Jewish roots, often without knowing it.”

Here, writer Alex Graaff features five Hispanic Jews who are currently “impacting the world.”

STAGGERING RESULTS

Buesing reports that a 2018 study analyzed DNA from 6,589 individuals across five Latin American countries: Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. The results were staggering. Approximately 23 percent of those sampled had at least 5 percent Sephardic Jewish ancestry, averaging 1-to-4 percent across these nations. This translates to an estimated 136-million Latin Americans who may carry Jewish DNA!

“These numbers,” Buesing says, “are more than statistics; they are stories of survival, of ancestors who hid their menorahs, whispered Shema Yisrael in secret, and passed down fragments of identity that science is now rediscovering.”

WHAT IF?

Buesing asks us to imagine what it would be like for a Christian––or someone of any other religion––to discover that a great-great-grandparent was a Converso and that his or her Jewish DNA traced back some 2,000 years.

“Antisemitism has plagued humanity for centuries,” he explains….” fueled by myths, stereotypes, and the scapegoating of Jews as ‘outsiders.’ But what if the world knew that millions––perhaps one in every 54 people globally––carried Jewish ancestry? If 152 million people, from São Paulo to Seville, from Johannesburg to Albuquerque, shared this heritage, the notion of Jews as ‘other’ begins to crumble.”

IDENTITY

A recent article about the punk-rock legendary icon Patti Smith revealed not only that she was an Ashkenazi Jew, but that the father who raised her and who she loved deeply. was not her biological father. After DNA testing, she said, “I wasn’t sure what to do with this information…”

Echoing that sentiment was the husband of a friend of mine, a macho police officer who always wondered why his sister cried so hard when he danced with her at his wedding. He later learned from an aggrieved relative that his sister was really his mother (who had given birth to him at the age of 13) and his mother was really his grandmother.

“Everything he thought he knew, his whole identity…who his uncles, aunts, cousins were…went out the window. It drove him crazy,” my friend told me. So crazy that the day after this revelation, he turned in his gun and his badge at the police department, abandoned his marriage, and joined a carnival in the Midwest!

And that is not to omit mention of the great Elvis Presley, whose Jewish ancestry––through his mother, Gladys––has been documented exhaustively by Roselle Kline Chartock in “The Jewish World of Elvis Presley.” In fact, Elvis not only wore a Star of David necklace, but had a Jewish star placed on the coffin of his mother Gladys.

Yoo Hoo and Heads-Up all you Jew haters. The people you are spending your time vilifying and lying about and jealous of and hating could be you!

November 16, 2025

I stopped counting the massive numbers of articles––both before and after the election of November 4, 2025––that predicted the complete devolution/collapse/implosion of New York City, a huge exodus of both Jews and Christians, as well as businesses and the Wall Street financial district to friendlier climes in what was anticipated to be the full-fledged conversion of the Big Apple from capitalism to communism, from law-and-order to a runaway crime wave, and from historical diversity to full-bore anti-Semitism and the passionate embrace of Islamism and Sharia Law if Zohran Mamdani was elected Mayor.

None of it phased me. I didn’t even watch the returns.

But the next day, I did read about the Democrat “sweep” in, predictably, Blue States. And that didn’t phase me either.

Why? Because I know both American history and Jewish history and both of these blazingly inspiring histories have survived and prevailed quite gloriously over far bigger fish than the diminutive Mamdani with his high-priority agenda, including his inflammatory embrace of Hamas, his stated hatred of Jews and Israel, his embrace of the Democratic Socialists of America and their annihilating mission statement to purge NYC of all things Jewish––and to “arrest Netanyahu and active IDF soldiers for war crimes”––and his promise to empty the city’s prisons of all its hard-core criminals, and his determination to replace the vital life-protecting and life-saving services of the police department with social workers.

Can’t make this up!

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

Daniel Greenfield gives us the cold hard empirical numbers. “In 1989… Jews outnumbered Muslims in NYC roughly 4 to 1. By 2013…the number of Muslims had doubled, and the number of Jews continued to drop.”

When Mamdani beat Andrew Cuomo, there were more Muslims than Italian Americans in NYC, Greenfield continues. There was no Irish candidate…because the Irish population “long ago dropped below that of Muslims.” And the Polish population represented by Curtis Sliwa is even smaller.

These populations, “were replaced by college students, hipsters and third-world immigrants who not only voted for Democrats, but for the far Left.”

And “much of New York City no longer even speaks English. That’s why Mamdani could campaign in Arabic.”

Actually, no one should be shocked by this election. While Americans were apparently distracted or not paying attention or stupidly thinking that they were being virtuous and tolerant by embracing a genuinely suicidal form of diversity, Muslims were steadfastly pursuing their decades-long blueprint of converting all western countries––as they have in Europe––to an Islamic caliphate.

And whaddaya know? In this last election, as reported by the RAIR Foundation, 42 Muslims were elected to prominent offices across the United States.

IT WON’T TAKE LONG

I live about 20 minutes from NY City, and I know the city well. I give the first five innocent citizens who get pushed off the subway onto the tracks, who get raped violently while taking a morning run, who get clocked in the face while walking down the street only to end up in an emergency room with a fractured cheekbone or a gouged-out eye, who get waylaid in horrific traffic jams for over an hour while hordes of Muslims listen to the blasting siren for prayer all over the City––five times a day!––before enormous rallies and organized campaigns call for Mamdani to be impeached.

As for the Democrat victors who won races for governors –– Abigail Spanberger in Virginia and Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey––just watch the crime rates escalate dramatically––as they do in all Democrat-run states (and also Democrat-run cities), and then watch the massive exodus on unprecedented levels by citizens and businesses to sane, law-and-order states and cities run by Republicans. Never fails.

We are looking at theater here, but more dramatic––and consequential––than Broadway!

Yes, the failed public-school system in our country has indoctrinated our youth with the notion of a victim mentality, that America the Beautiful is not beautiful at all, but rather a racist, misogynistic, exploitive political system that is not “fair” … to whom?

In their view, to all the people who don’t like to work but who do like depending on the government for food, housing, cell phones, medicine, basically everything. Basically, communists! And actually, a system that has failed thunderously in every country where it has been tried.

SOME HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE

Remember the hugely powerful and ancient Egyptian Empire? That empire, like Mamdani & Co., hated the Jews and forced them into over 200 years of brutal slavery. Today, that empire has been extinct for centuries, while the teeny tiny population of Jews continued to survive and in many instances flourish.

How about the even more powerful Babylonian Empire, from which the all-important Babylonian Talmud was transcribed from the oral law to the written law? Same history, same ending. Gone. But still, the Jews prevailed.

Then there was the highly influential Persian Empire. Strong, dominant, quite sure that those damn Jews could and would be conquered. Yep! Gone, but the Jews were still a cohesive people, struggling but alive.

Not to omit the immense might of the Greek Empire. Um… gone while those pesky Jews continued to make disproportionate contributions to mankind, as they do today.

And then there was the mightiest of all, the Roman Empire––armed, dangerous, focused, resolute and determined to finally conquer those obstinate Jews who constantly claimed there was only one God, who gave the world the Torah and the Ten Commandments and Jesus, again the list of contributions is too long to recount here.

And where is the Roman Empire now? Gone! And the Jews? Still contributing astounding contributions to the world in subjects as diverse as medicine, scholarship, science, literature, invention, computer science, environment, technology, on and on and on and on.

And, as usual, still aggravating their neighbors and the little Jew haters like Zohran Mamdani and Nick Fuentes and Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, et al, who hilariously believe that they are more powerful–– with all their Ivy League words and media connections––than all the armed empires that fell into ignominy before them.

THE PENDULUM

The pendulum of history continues. Back and forth it goes, from the far left to the far right, and sometimes it lands in the middle, as it did in the quite harmonious 1950s.

I suspect that after the misguided election of Mamdani and those leftist governors in VA and NJ, and even Jay Jones being elected as the Democrat Attorney General of Virginia after he threatened to shoot a Republican in the head, the voters who cast their votes for these candidates will begin to smell the coffee and realize that the people they voted for have yielded nothing positive, nothing productive, nothing life-affirming, nothing good.

National conservative TV and radio host Wayne Allyn Root has a remedy for the Mamdani phenomenon. It is too lengthy to include here but I urge all readers to click on this link to enjoy his truly unique and original ideas.

In the next go-round, the midterms in 2026, I predict that we will see the same thunderous victories for conservatives as we saw in the monumental victory of President Trump in 2024.

October 27, 2025

Going back 250 years, the enemies of America thought long and hard about how to destroy the fledgling experiment of a Democratic Republic that our Founding Fathers envisioned. It was and continues to be clear to them that America’s strength is a function of three phenomena:

♦ A fervent belief in the God Who makes miracles happen, for just one example the crushing defeat of the thunderously powerful English Empire’s armies by blazing patriots like General George Washington and his ragtag army of American heroes.
♦ An equally ardent belief in and passion for the concept of Freedom. Men who knew they were going to die, and their wives who believed their deaths were for the noble cause of freedom, all sacrificed to bring about our victory over the monarchy that wanted to continue to rule us.
♦ The most passionate was the embrace, belief in, and allegiance to family, its sanctity, its strength, its ability to weather all storms and overcome all obstacles.

If we destroy all three, our enemies reasoned, the masses they considered essentially stupid would be forced to rely exclusively on Big Government. And so, to this day, the socialists-cum-communists among us are employing––as their predecessors did–– every malevolent, criminal, and vicious tactic they can muster to actualize that goal.

ASTOUNDING PROGRESS

The America haters among us have already:

♦ Infiltrated our public schools and contaminated generations of students with anti-American propaganda, as well as explicit pornography and grooming, even in kindergarten!
♦ Lured both Christians and Jews to abandon their faiths and to worship the new God of Social Justice.
♦ Succeeded in the leftist––and I believe traitorous––infiltration of our military and Intelligence services like the FBI and CIA until, that is, the redemptive entrance of President Trump and his Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth.
♦ Rigged the 2020 presidential election, which political activist Dinesh D’Souza also proved in his explosive film, 2000 Mules.
On and on and on.

Still, the family remains their most desired––yet maddeningly elusive––target.

HELP ALONG THE WAY

A person in a suit holding a cigar AI-generated content may be incorrect.

Sigmund Freud, photo by Max Halberstadt (public domain).

That effort was generously helped––perhaps, at first, innocently––by the theories of Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), the Austrian neurologist-cum-psychiatrist who was wildly successful in convincing the relatively new and free-thinking American public that the genesis of neuroses, phobias, anxieties, obsessions, depression, psychosis, and general psychological malfunction not only took place in the first few years of life, but that the mothers who raised these suffering children were primarily to blame. Later therapists, like the sadistic psychiatrist Bruno Bettelheim, blamed “cold” mothers for their children’s autism.

Mission #1 Accomplished: Mothers are not good for children.

These psychological theories prevailed throughout the 20th century and up to today, embraced by generations of psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, and psychotherapists until 1998 when they were thoroughly debunked by Judith Rich Harris in The Nurture Assumption, where the Harvard-educated psychologist and editor of most of the psychology texts used in colleges and medical schools in America argued persuasively that a person’s peer group is the major influence of thought, feelings, and behavior throughout life.

THE NEXT STEP

In 1960, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the most world-changing medication in history, developed by Dr. John Rock, a Harvard professor and obstetrician-gynecologist with five children––along with Drs. Gregory Pincus, C.M. Phang, and Selzo Garcia. Their creation was the birth-control pill, aka The Pill! For the first time in world history, women had control over their reproduction.

For millions of women, it was their own Declaration of Independence, and a huge relief not to have to worry every month about getting pregnant.

Mission #2 Accomplished: Now we can be just like men, some women reasoned, and have as much sex as we want without worrying about getting pregnant. Thus was the Free Sex movement born and a complete redefinition of traditional morality.

GET OUT OF THE HOUSE!

Three years after The Pill, in 1963, a book by Betty Friedan, a housewife with three children from Queens, NY, shot to the top of every bestseller list. In essence, The Feminine Mystique told women that they were simply too smart, too creative, too intrinsically or at least potentially powerful to be spending their time, actually wasting their time, changing diapers, folding laundry, and—the most colossal waste of time of all––raising children.

Nevertheless, Friedan’s book resonated!

Mission #3 Accomplished: Multimillions of young women abandoned the once-desired goal of early marriage and motherhood and instead enrolled in colleges and universities where they pursued professional careers ranging from medicine and law and architecture to jobs like telephone linewomen to military combatants to firefighters to hedge fund managers to business executives, et al.

Coincidentally, ahem, an economy that once allowed men to work outside of the home and support a wife and put children through college magically became an economy that only two working parents could afford. Kind of like an economy that was completely energy independent in 2020 under President Trump but quite magically became one in which President Biden had to beg foreign countries to sell him oil in 2021.

REALITY SETS IN

The ‘60s also ushered in the historically unprecedented rash of violent assassinations––live on TV––of:

♦ U.S. President John F. Kennedy in 1963 (age 46),
♦ Firebrand Black activist Malcolm X in 1965 (age 39),
♦ Civil Rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968 (age 39),
♦ Former Attorney General and presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy in 1968 (age 42).

All of a sudden, the idealized world of the newly emancipated women was shattered. The world is out of control, they realized. Is it any wonder that so many of them enthusiastically embraced (or attended) the 1969 Woodstock Music Festival, with not only free sex but a geyser of drugs for the smoking and snorting and injecting?

Mission #4 Accomplished: Many of these college-educated women congratulated themselves on avoiding marriage and especially motherhood, asking themselves: “Who wants to bring a child into this world?”

ONLY A FEW YEARS LATER

In 1971, Gloria Steinem ––“We are becoming the men we wanted to marry” –– and editor Letty Cottin Pogrebin, founded the first national feminist magazine, Ms.

Mission #5 Accomplished: The traditional nuclear family was being dismantled by a new generation of women who bought into the notion that making money was infinitely more satisfying, meaningful, and important than raising children.

MARRIAGE OUT––NOW BABIES OUT!

On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued a 7–2 decision in Roe v. Wade that all women had a “right” to an abortion. To this day, that decision is the Holy Grail of millions of women who believe that “my body, my choice” starts after they’ve had unprotected sex and gotten pregnant with a baby they don’t want.

In 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and sent the decision for abortion back to each individual state. Today, every woman in the United States who wants an abortion can get one, although some may have to endure the inconvenience of traveling to another state…forget about the inconvenience their embryos face of a death sentence!

Mission #6 Accomplished: The once-most-cherished accomplishment of both men and women—to be the parent of a newborn baby––was effectively reduced to ending that baby’s life in utero. And today, in some states, abortion exists right up to the moment a full-term baby is delivered, and, believe it or not, in California, even up to the time a healthy thriving baby is 28 days old! I believe that is called infanticide!

THE TICKING CLOCK

Uh-oh. After graduating from college and laboring in the workforce for over a decade, millions of women realized that this money-making thing wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. But looking for a good man––after stepping on their necks on the way up the ladder––was even more problematic.

Nevertheless, the new social phenomenon of women marrying in their mid-thirties and older took hold, and not coincidentally gave rise to a booming in-vitro-fertilization industry, as millions of these new brides learned that conceiving and carrying a child after the age of 35 was both a “high-risk” and extremely pricey enterprise.

Mission #7 Accomplished: Take the joy out of intimacy and sex, make it a mechanical act, and further erode both marriage and the family at the same time.

A person and person cooking in a kitchen AI-generated content may be incorrect.

BUT WHAT ABOUT MY CAREER?

Modern women have been told by the influencers of the day that they could “have it all” –– marriage, children, and career. Since they wanted it all, they bought it!

Some women were lucky to have their mothers or mothers-in-law or even young grandmothers volunteer to raise their children, and a rare few could afford expensive nannies.

But most women had to rely on another industry that boomed like no other––the daycare business––where mothers dropped off their infants, babies, toddlers, and preschoolers to paid workers who tended up to 20 or more children at a time, making sure those children were safe and fed, but not necessarily held, loved, comforted, taught, or nurtured.

However, this still allowed the mothers to brag that the hour or so they spent with their child at the end of a day––in which both mother and child were exhausted––was, ahem, “quality time.”

Mission #8 Accomplished: Women out of the home, children being raised by strangers, the American family being dismantled piece by piece.

THE GENIUS STEVE FACTOR

A hand holding a cell phone AI-generated content may be incorrect.JESHOOTS-com, Pixabay.

Two geniuses…Steve Case, the founding CEO of America Online (AOL) in 1983 (which really took off in the ‘90s), and Steve Jobs, who invented, created, introduced the iPhone in 2007 and the iPad in 2010.

No need to elaborate on the degree to which these geniuses totally eliminated face-to-face communication and succeeded in riveting both parents and children to all the tantalizing distractions on these electronic devices that separate people and depersonalize intimate relationships, especially meaningful communication between parents and children.

Mission #9 Accomplished: Family concerns take a backseat to beeping texts, sexy emojis, Facebook invitations, Instagram images, Hollywood gossip, and horrifically graphic porn sites, which even savvy eight-year-olds can access with ease.

Worse, this has given rise to an entire generation of sociopaths who, understandably, have little or no human empathy, given the largely robotic care they’ve received.

And now we have an ad––since removed and eliminated from every search engine––that shows a child laughing and sharing an experience with her clearly delighted mother. Both are on iPads communicating long distance. The ad ends with a voice telling the mother: “You Don’t Have to Be There.”

Right. The mother doesn’t have to be there to raise and love and comfort and teach and tuck her child in at night, and the father doesn’t have to be there, either. Only Big Government should raise their child to be a good little obedient Communist. That’s the message!

Mission #10 Accomplished: Father never mentioned, mother out of the picture, the actual premeditated murder of the American family.

And the crashing failure of the Feminist Movement.

I rest my case.

October 14, 2025

In 2020, the Atlanta-based U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that one in 36 children (approximately four percent of boys and one percent of girls) was estimated to have autism-spectrum disorder, estimates that were significantly higher than those in all previous years.

But just five years later, according to the press conference held just weeks ago on September 22, President Trump — in the presence of U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz — announced that the Department of Health and Human Services stated that autism had surged in America nearly 400% and now affects 1 in 31 American children…

…and that this alarming statistic was a result of pregnant women taking Tylenol during their pregnancies!

Within milliseconds, everyone weighed in, from a skeptical Scientific American to the hearty support of the Icahn School in the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine.

Here, Dr. Josh Redd explains in plain English why Tylenol is so bad for pregnant women.

Besides the pros and cons, disturbing facts emerged, not the least of which is that the FDA knew about the Tylenol-autism link over a decade and a half ago…but did nothing! Talk about “follow the money”!

In fact, as early as 2019, a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) study recommended — again, with no follow-through — that the labels be revised to advise pregnant women to “be careful about casual use of acetaminophen when it is not strongly needed for pain or other purposes.”

It took a few years, but since September 2022, according to the BirthInjuryCenter.org, over 100 lawsuits have been filed nationwide against acetaminophen manufacturers, claiming damage over the failure to warn pregnant users that Tylenol and generic versions may increase the risk of having a baby with autism and/or ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).

By that I mean that this potentially life-altering announcement omitted — actually failed — to include a quite obvious cause of autism’s precipitous rise over the past several decades.

To explain: In the early ’70s, I worked nights — the 11 P.M. to 7 A.M. shift — as a delivery room nurse at a university-affiliated hospital near my home on Long Island. It was a revolutionary time in obstetrics, when the Lamaze method of “prepared childbirth” and the use of sonograms to visualize fetuses were gaining popularity.

Actually, ultrasound technology was first developed in Scotland in the mid-1950s by obstetrician Ian Donald and engineer Tom Brown to detect industrial flaws in ships. By the end of the ’50s, ultrasound was routinely used in Glasgow hospitals, but it was not until the 1970s that it was used in American hospitals to check that the developing baby, placenta, and amniotic fluid were normal and to detect abnormal conditions such as birth defects and ectopic pregnancies.

At the end of the ’70s, I became a certified Lamaze teacher and spent the next 22 years giving weekly classes to couples in my home. In a very real way, I had my own laboratory, as I learned directly from my clients about the increasing escalation of sonogram exams they had as the decades elapsed.

In the early 1980s, it was common for only one or two out of the ten women in my classes to have a sonogram. In just a few years, every woman in my classes had had a sonogram. And in the late ’80s and ’90s, almost every woman had not one sonogram, but often two or three or four or five — starting as early as three or four weeks’ gestation and extending, in some instances, right up to delivery!

It was in the ’90s, in fact, that it occurred to me that the scary rise in the incidence of autism might be linked to the significant rise in ultrasound exams. Over the years, I’ve posited my theory to a number of people, written letters to the editors of newspapers — including to the N.Y. Times, for which I wrote for over 20 years, but they still refused to publish my letter — and emailed my idea to one of the top news people at the Fox News Network, but the “we report/you decide” powers that be on that TV station strangely decided not to report on this subject.

I contacted autism researchers Dr. Marcel Just and Dr. Diane L. Williams, who told me via email that Dr. Pasko Rakic at Yale was, indeed, exploring the autism-ultrasound link.

Then, in 2006, I found an article in Midwifery Today, “Questions about Prenatal Ultrasound and the Alarming Increase in Autism,” by writer-researcher Caroline Rodgers.

“The steep increase in autism,” Rodgers wrote, “goes beyond the U.S.: It is a “global phenomenon” that “has emerged … across vastly different environments and cultures.”

However, Rodgers added, “what all industrial countries do have in common is … the use of routine prenatal ultrasound on pregnant women. In countries with nationalized health care, where virtually all pregnant women are exposed to ultrasound, the autism rates are even higher than in the U.S., where due to disparities in income and health insurance, some 30 percent of pregnant women do not yet undergo ultrasound scanning.”

Aha! Could this be why blacks and Hispanics in America continue to lag behind whites in the development of autism?

Dolphins, Whales…Relevance?

In the summer of 2012, as many as 3,000 dead dolphins were found in Peru. Researchers at the Organization for the Conservation of Aquatic Animals (ORCA), a Peruvian marine animal conservation organization, attributed the mass deaths to the use of deep-water sonar by ships in nearby waters.

Even earlier, in June of 2008, four days after a Navy helicopter was using controversial sonar equipment during training exercises off the Cornish coast in Great Britain, 26 dolphins died in a mass stranding.

These events — and literally thousands that are similar — are relevant because many mass deaths and strandings of whales and dolphins have been attributed to the sonar waves emitted from Navy ships.

In 2009, an article in Scientific American by John Slocum explained that sonar (sound navigation and ranging) systems, which were first developed by the U.S. Navy to detect enemy submarines, “generate slow-rolling sound waves topping out at around 235 decibels; the world’s loudest rock bands top out at only 130. These sound waves can travel for hundreds of miles under water and can retain an intensity of 140 decibels as far as 300 miles from their source.”

Slocum wrote that a successful 2003 lawsuit against the Navy brought by the nonprofit Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) to restrict the use of low-frequency sonar in waters rich in marine wildlife was upheld by two lower courts, but the Supreme Court “ruled that the Navy should be allowed to continue the use of some mid-frequency sonar testing for the sake of national security.”

Two quick questions: If sonar can kill fully developed dolphins, what effect, then, does it have on the developing brains of in utero embryos and fetuses? And why was the massive use of sonograms during pregnancy not even considered an area of research in our government’s investigation?

And Then There’s the Heat!

Just as concerning, as far back 1982, the World Health Organization (WHO)’s study, “Effects of Ultrasound on Biological Systems,” concluded that “neurological, behavioral, developmental, immunological, hematological changes and reduced fetal weight can result from exposure to ultrasound.” Two years later, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reported that when birth defects occurred, the acoustic output of sonograms was usually high enough to cause considerable heat.

And yet, in 1993, the FDA approved an eightfold increase in the potential acoustical output of ultrasound equipment! Ostensibly, this increase was to enhance visualization of the heart and small vessels during microsurgery. Clearly, the health and well-being of developing fetuses was not a consideration!

Getting back to those embryos and fetuses, Rodgers explained that “when the transducer from the ultrasound is positioned over the part of the fetus the operator is trying to visualize, the fetus may be feeling vibrations, heat, or both.”

Rodgers then cited a warning the Food and Drug Administration issued way back in 2004: “Even at low levels, [ultrasound] laboratory studies have shown it can have … jarring vibrations” — one study compared the noise to a subway coming into a station — “and a rise in temperature.”

The cause of autism, Rodgers wrote, “has been pinned on everything from ‘emotionally remote’ mothers … to vaccines, genetics, immunological disorders, environmental toxins and maternal infections. A far simpler possibility … is the pervasive use of prenatal ultrasound, which can cause potentially dangerous thermal effects.”

Imagine how these assaults affect the developing brain of a fetus!

Enter Hard Science

In August 2006, Pasko Rakic, M.D., chair of Yale School of Medicine’s Department of Neurobiology, announced the results of a study in which pregnant mice underwent various durations of ultrasound. The brains of the offspring showed damage that was also found in the brains of people with autism.

The research, funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, also implicated ultrasound in neurodevelopmental problems in children, such as dyslexia, epilepsy, mental retardation, and schizophrenia, and showed that damage to brain cells increased with longer exposures.

Dr. Rakic’s study, Rodgers said, “is just one of many animal experiments and human studies conducted over the years indicating that prenatal ultrasound can be harmful to babies.”

Follow the Money

In The Daily Beast, Jennifer Margulis, author of Business of Baby: What Doctors Don’t Tell You, What Corporations Try to Sell You, and How to Put Your Baby before Their Bottom Line, wrote that Dr. Rakic “concluded that all nonmedical use of ultrasound on pregnant women should be avoided.”

In her research, Margulis said that she discovered that “there is mounting evidence that overexposure to sound waves — or perhaps exposure to sound waves at a critical time during fetal development — is to blame for the astronomic rise in neurological disorders among America’s children.”

Clearly, there is a vast human tragedy — a true man-made disaster — taking place before our eyes.

For whatever reasons — follow the money? — the mountain of evidence that points to a causal relationship between prenatal ultrasound exams and an escalating pandemic of autism is being systematically ignored.

Could it have anything to do with the huge investments doctors and scientists have made in ultrasound technology, which, according to Jennifer Margulis, “adds more than $1 billion to the cost of caring for pregnant women in America each year”?

Could it have anything to do with the revenue now pouring like an avalanche into the coffers of diagnostic and treatment centers and classrooms?

Could it have anything to do with modern journalism’s almost complete abandonment of hard-nosed reporting and life-saving exposés?

As Caroline Rodgers said, there is an elephant in the room when it comes to the subject of autism, and that elephant is the worldwide blitzkrieg of ultrasound exams on pregnant women, exams that have bombarded the babies they’re carrying with the brain-warping sound waves and heat that will continue to affect them every second of their autistic lives.

Yoo-hoo, President Trump, RFK Jr., and Dr. Oz! It’s way past time to give pregnancy sonograms the same attention and warnings you gave so confidently to Tylenol!

September 8, 2025

By Joan Swirsky

Since the very microsecond in 2015 when billionaire builder and TV star Donald Trump descended the escalator in NY City’s splendiferous Trump Tower with his gorgeous wife Melania by his side and pronounced his candidacy as a Republican for the presidency of the United States of America, each and every leftist, liberal, progressive (LLP] from all over the world went insane.

A big part of that insanity was fear. After a 15-year run hosting the mega-successful TV show The Apprentice, candidate Trump’s adversaries knew that they were up against a guy with not only international name recognition as an innovative real estate developer, but also brains, an Ivy League education, a billionaire who could not be bought, bribed or compromised, and who also had that rare and elusive X factor known as charisma.

In fact, it was the late political columnist and TV personality, who was also a psychiatrist, Charles Krauthammer, who originally coined  the phrase Bush Derangement Syndrome that ended up fitting candidate Trump so perfectly…hence, Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). That “syndrome” was defined by Krauthammer as “the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency—nay—the very existence of”––in 2015 and beyond, Donald Trump.

In fact, Krauthammer, in an op-ed, commented that—in addition to general hysteria about Trump—the “Trump Derangement Syndrome” was the “inability to distinguish between legitimate policy differences and … signs of psychic pathology.”

NO PROBLEM

But the insanity didn’t last long when all those LLPs realized that they themselves had three immensely powerful weapons against candidate Trump.

The first was ACORN (Association Of Community Organizations For Reform Now), which admitted to voter fraud in 2010 and went to prison,  but upon release reorganized, changed their name, and by 2015 were back in the vote-rigging business.

The second powerful weapon in their Get-Trump toolbox was the leftist mainstream media, a media that once lionized Donald Trump, featured his beauteous former-model wife on the covers of prestigious fashion magazines, and thanked him copiously for his tremendous contributions to New York City, including for the long-forsaken Wollman ice-skating rink.

But in 2015, it was a media that was also poised to use all of its power and malevolence to defame, vilify, mock, undermine, and try to utterly destroy candidate––and worse, Republican––Trump.

The third, which the LLPs considered their most devastating weapon, was none other than candidate Trump’s formidable opponent, the former two-term First Lady of Arkansas while her husband was governor, and also the two-term First Lady of the USA while her husband, President Bill Clinton, was POTUS. And that is not to omit that Hillary Clinton was a former Secretary of State under the Obama regime, and a feminist icon to women around the world, all of whom chose to ignore that she tolerated a husband who spit in her face every day as his serial philandering became globally publicized.

But this seemingly ongoing blemish was no matter to every gender-obsessed LLP who hoped to be alive long enough to witness the first woman to be inaugurated as President of the United States of America!

THE SYMPTOMS STARTED IMMEDIATELY

All that original optimism notwithstanding, it didn’t take long for Democrats to finally acknowledge that they had a very good reason to fear a Trump presidency. Here was a man with limitless energy and obviously impervious to their gratuitous insults, defamation of character, and fabricated lies, as well as instantly ready to level withering and often prescient nicknames, caricatures and insults right back at them.

Who can forget Fake News CNN, Crooked Joe and Sleepy Joe (Biden), Low IQ War Hawk (Liz Cheney), Crazy Hillary and Crooked Hillary, Leakin’ James Comey, Shady James Comey and Slimeball James Comey, Comrade Kamala, Broken Old Crow (Mitch McConnell}, Governor Newscum (Gavin Newsom), Pocahontas (Elizabeth Warren), Our Great Palestinian Senator (Chuck Schumer), Tampon Tim (MN Gov. Tim Walz), and Pencil Neck (Cong. Adam Schiff)?

So colorful, so hilarious, and to the LLPs, so maddening, so menacing, so mortifying.

SMELLING THE COFFEE

Again, it wasn’t long before the Democrat establishment realized that ole Hillary would not have a cakewalk into the White House. That was when they launched their lawfare campaign, which is basically using lawsuits as weapons either to intimidate an opponent, or specifically in this case to persistently badger or bankrupt candidate Trump into quitting the race.

They had the wrong guy.

And we all witnessed the net result of that historic election. After virtually all the polls and pundits predicted a crushing Hillary victory, We the People had other ideas and literally swept candidate Trump to a decisive and yes, crushing victory into the Oval Office!

A WELLSPRING OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS

The Trump presidency was remarkable for its stunning accomplishments…high employment across all demographics, energy independence to last a thousand years, foreign actors paying their fair share into NATO (for the first time), a significantly strengthened US Military, widespread deregulation resulting in billions saved, the unprecedented Abraham Accords in the Middle East, expanding access to affordable healthcare choices and lowering drug prices, on and on and on.

It was also remarkable for the obdurate persistence of the peculiar Democrat hysteria at the very sight, sound or even mention of POTUS Trump.

THEN CAME 2020

The entire world was watching the returns roll in and, as expected, President Trump was racking up victory after victory in what clearly appeared to be a slam-dunk return to the White House. But suddenly––and for the first time in history––every TV station experienced a complete cessation of coverage. Typical electronic glitch, everyone initially thought.

But uh oh…a glitch for three, four, five hours? What’s wrong with this picture?

What was wrong was that the clear victor became the ultimate loser and President Trump was forced to accede to Senator Joe Biden, who even then, in 2020, was exhibiting alarming signs of cognitive decline.

Without rehashing the years-long controversy over rigged voting machines and mountains of fraudulent mail-in votes (ala Dinesh D’Souza’s explosive film, 2000 Mules), America was stuck with or condemned to Obama 2.0, 11-million illegal aliens breaching our borders, unvetted during the Covid scamdemic, a significantly weakened military, a pitiful and dangerous foreign policy that ushered in not one but five raging wars––in Darfur, Yemen, Myanmar, Ukraine, and Israel––not one of which existed in the Trump years.

INCURABLE

And during all these years, nothing persisted more hysterically, more irrationally, than Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Merriam Webster Dictionary defines deranged as “mentally unsound…” –– and I would add obsessed! According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) of the American Psychiatric Association, obsession is defined as recurrent and persistent thoughts, urges, or impulses that are…intrusive… and often lead to … repetitive behaviors, in this case of thinking night and day––um, obsessively––of ways to ultimately convince the vast populace––including multimillions of subscribers to social media like Facebook, Instagram, Telegram, X, et al––that under Trump, the world would come to an end.

Of course, this deranged, obsessed, indeed crazed cult engages daily in inflammatory memes that are largely inaccurate or downright false. When you’re obsessed, truth and accuracy are mere inconveniences.

Meanwhile, employment is high, Wall St. is pipping and popping, cesspools of crime like D.C. are being cleaned up, illegal criminals are being deported, wars that raged on for years are being ended, vicious anti-Semitism in American colleges and universities is being aggressively sanctioned, but the derangement and obsessiveness only grows.

In fact, writer Zoe Tillman documents that just since President Trump’s second term began this year, 74 Lawsuits Have Already Been Filed.  But records show that he has been largely successful in fighting this rabid lawfare onslaught by dozens of partisan leftwing judges, to the everlasting handwringing and hysteria of the Get Trump cabal.

After years of observing this floridly aberrant behavior, I have to say that President Trump reminds me of Israel––relentlessly attacked but ultimately victorious!

Before I make my case, can we all agree that Jews are smart?  Yes, we have our share of dumb, dense dolts, but when it comes to objective, empirical, irrefutable evidence of intellectual accomplishments, there is really no arguing with the smart — and often brilliant — label.

Jews number only 16 million in a world population of eight billion.  Just limiting the adjectives “smart” and “brilliant” to words — as opposed to science, technology, biotechnology, medicine, et al. — consider how many Jews have won the Nobel Prize in literature, the astounding number of Jews in the fields of advertising and public relations, the music industry, newspapers and publishers, TV, film and videos, and more.

Then consider this limited but impressive list of the many brilliant words of Jewish composers and lyricists, as well as this staggeringly long list of Jewish media commentators and the zillions of words they have spoken and continue to speak every minute of every day.

And who can forget that World War II might have ended very differently and quite disastrously if not for the powerfully inspirational words of England’s prime minister Winston Churchill?  Or that the words of the only other authentic orator of the 20th century, Abba Eban, were so influential in the birth of the State of Israel in 1948?

Sapir and N.Y. Times columnist Bret Stephens has made the case that if the Chosen People were chosen for anything, it is that the Jews were chosen to think.  And clearly, I believe, to translate their thoughts into words…and then into action.

Aha…action!

What does that mean?  Action is not what you think or say or imagine or fantasize about.  Action is what you do.

The action that the violent terrorists from Hamas took on October 7, 2023, was on display for all the world to see.  This is the short list:

• The raping of women so violently that their pelvic bones were shattered.
• The removal of their babies from the arms that tried to protect them, only to see their infants put into ovens to bake to death.
• An audio recording of a terrorist calling his proud mother to brag that he had “killed 10 Jews today.”
• The rounding up of entire families and trapping them in their homes to be burned to death.
• Candy handed out by the terrorists’ families to celebrate every grisly Jewish death.

Certainly, this was the quintessential lesson to the entire world of what defines good and bad, law-abiding and criminal, moral and immoral, sane and insane.

Instead…

We saw — and see to this day — a world endorsing and, indeed, cheering for the murderers and rapists!

On college campuses, in worldwide demonstrations, in blatantly biased and often fabricated newspaper articles and editorials, it appears that every single student, editor, and journalist believes that his mother, sister, grandmother, girlfriend, wife, or daughter is immune from the ravages of “the religion of peace,” a “religion” that performs female genital mutilation, mandates the wearing of face- and entire body–covering hijabs and niqabs and burkas, and arranges marriages (starting at the age of 7, or is it 5?) and honor killings for girls who have fallen for a non-Muslim guy.

Then there is France’s President Emmanuel Macron, the U.K.’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney, and many others who have endorsed a Palestinian state as a lavish reward to all the murderers and torturers and rapists of Jews.  As we have witnessed, there is just about nothing that political whores won’t do for votes…or to have their mortgages paid off or their kids put through college or to avoid having infidelity exposed or one’s child gone missing forever.

Getting back to action — or a lack thereof

Why, how, in the putatively evolved 21st century, has all this taken place, where people we once thought were decent, empathic, and humanitarian are actually siding with these cold-blooded killers, and countries we once thought of as embracing law and order, the value of human life, and democratic values turning into echo chambers in de facto support of violent jihad?

I’ve come up with only two explanations.

The first is simple Jew-hatred, compounded by the existence of the quite dazzling symbol and reality of Jewish indomitability, the State of Israel.  There are many roots of this metastatic condition, which I elaborated upon in this article.

The second is quite mysterious, given the mass of words the Jews are so well known for, as described above, as well as their belief in and embrace of hasbara, a Hebrew term that means “explaining,” but translates in the real world into public relations through mass communication as well as diplomacy.

Getting the message out there!

In that regard, why has the glorious past of incredibly talented and persuasive wordsmiths in the Jewish world failed to make a better case than the spokesmen for the jihadists…and their craven echo chambers in a worldwide antisemitic left-wing media establishment?

• Did the powers that be in the hasbara world think that showing actual photographs of the ravaged Jewish rape victims was indelicate?
• Why didn’t they confront the Jew- and Israel-haters with direct questions like, “Did you learn this hate from your mother?  Was it in the kitchen, at your bedside prayers at night?  Where did you learn this hatred?”  And then not letting up one microsecond until an answer was provided or, more likely, the producer cut the feed.
• Why didn’t they provide to all media people big, bold, colorful charts depicting to the “two-state” advocates the vast destruction that the Arabs (who call themselves Palestinians) did to Gaza over the past 20 years, as they were too preoccupied constructing their Death Tunnels to attack Israel?
• Why do they believe that weak and bland sentences like “this is unacceptable” and “we reject that theory” and “this is the opposite of the truth” would be adequate to convince a brainwashed public to believe them?
• Where has all that Jewish brain-power hasbara gone over the past two years?

Liel Leibovitz, a Hudson Institute scholar and Tablet magazine editor-at-large, believes that the emphasis in the pro-Israel community on winning the information war against Hamas propaganda with better hasbara is a delusion.  He says that Israel “should forget about hasbara because the Western media is not interested in facts or truth.”

But there is another culprit

Even more responsible for the pretty much uniformly anti-Israel and blatantly antisemitic coverage — with pitifully few exceptions like Fox News, Newsmax, and One America News — is what is commonly referred to as the mainstream or elite or legacy media.

This is not a mystery.  As I spelled out in this article (based on the formidable work of ace journalist Ashley Lutz in a Business Insider report), there are now only six organizations responsible for 90 percent or more of all the “news” we read, watch, and listen to!  They include:

• GE (Comcast, NBC, Universal Pictures, Focus Features, et al.)
• NewsCorp (Fox News, Wall St. Journal, N.Y. Post, et al.)
• Disney (ABC, ESPN, Pixar, Miramax, Marvel Studios, et al.)
• Viacom (MTV, Nick Jr., BET, CMT, Paramount Pictures, et al.)
• Time Warner (CNN, HBO, TIME, Warner Bros., et al.)
• CBS (Showtime, Smithsonian Channel, NFL.com, Jeopardy, 60 Minutes, et al).

All of them are owned by left-wing zillionaire globalists except NewsCorp, but that changed when a few years ago Rupert Murdoch gave control of his media empire to his RINO son Lachlan and his leftist son James.

So the real culprit in the lack of accurate news coming from Israel is not Israel, but the mainstream media, which dictate to their dispensable lackeys (i.e., news hosts, anchors, broadcasters, opinion-makers) exactly what to say, under penalty of firing!

The Bee Gees were right.  Words are all we have…even if they are malevolently twisted to demonize Jews and glorify jihadists.

Is there a solution?

Yes.

Israel…start showing those gut-wrenching photographs of those crimes against humanity inflicted on innocent Israelis on October 7, 2023.

Start confronting those hostile interviewers with you own questions.  “What if it were your grandmother or mother or sister or wife who was raped or had her breasts cut off while she was alive?”

Start showing those damning charts that demonstrate the seven countries attacking Israel and their vast populations as compared to Israel’s minuscule population.

Start talking tough and not nice:

• “This is criminal.  This is immoral.  This is why these thugs and murderers and rapists should be in prison for life or deserve the death penalty.”
• “You challenge us?  Go back to school and then sue your schools for mal-educating you!”
• “If you learned that from the BBC or CNN or the N.Y. Times, you are addicted to left-wing propaganda and immune to even a scintilla of truth!”

It’s only words, but words are all we have.

August 12, 2025

Since the day that Israeli Jews––men, women, children, infants, the aged––were attacked, tortured, murdered, raped and burned to death on October 7, 2023, the entire world––save for a tiny minority of people who still know right from wrong, good from bad, moral from immoral––have vilified, excoriated, and blamed––ta da!––the Jews! The victims!

Why? It’s really not that hard to figure out.

We live in a world of eight-billion people, the vast majority of whom have never seen or spoken to or met a Jew…a Jew whose numbers comprise a microscopic 16 million, only half of that number in Israel, another approximate seven million in America, and about another million throughout the world. This represents less than an almost-invisible micro-droplet in the Atlantic Ocean.

It’s as if all the elephants in the world got together and decided that the most dangerous threat to their existence, the most looming menace to their very survival, was the ant! Gotta get rid of those ants! Gotta annihilate them, destroy their colonies, eradicate their leaders, do anything on earth to exterminate this existential danger to our very being!

And that’s the way it has been with the Jews for 4,000 years.

But if you questioned the bought-and-paid for Jew-and-Israel-hating “protestors” on college campuses and their simpatico administrators and professors, and if you asked fulminating Jew haters like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens––both the 21^st  century’s version of David Duke––and the astoundingly long list that includes the poohbahs at The NY Times, TIME magazine, the American mainstream media, the BBC, et al––if they had ever been physically assaulted or robbed or cuckolded or beaten in sports by a Jew, 99% of them would say no, although they may have suffered true narcissistic injuries when all those smart Jews got better marks in school and beat them on the medical and law boards, and made more money––on drive and merit––than their jealous critics ever dreamed of.

AGAIN, WHY THE OBSESSIVE HATRED?       

Like oozing gangrene, a deadly systemic infection, or the metastasis of invasive cancers, Jew hatred comes in many malignant strains.

Strain #1 — the Dumb Factor

In short, a dim-witted parent, family member, friend, teacher, or coach — one who was “schooled” by another dimwit — tells an innocent child that much of what is wrong with his or her life is because of “the Jew” who lives down the street, or employs his or her parent, or publishes the local newspaper…whatever.

“They may look like you and me,” the dimwit says, “but underneath that head of hair are horns, and by the way, they bake their Passover holiday bread with the blood of kids like you and your sister, and you should know that they control all the money in the world, and never forget that they killed Jesus.” Then the kid gets older, and his actual life experience contradicts what he’s heard as he or she studies or socializes or works with Jews and sometimes falls in love and marries one.

But dumb anti-Semitism is just like dumb stereotypes about tap-dancing blacks or whiskey-guzzling Irish people or can’t-screw-in-a-light-bulb Poles or Mambo-obsessed Hispanics, still destructive to a decent and respectful social order.

Strain #2 — the Emotional Factor

There are legions of highly intelligent people — in terms of IQs, advanced college degrees, professional accomplishments, published books, and fancy titles — who are nonetheless driven almost exclusively by their feelings. Ironic that they’ve spent lifetimes honing their razor-sharp intellects, refining their debating skills, priding themselves on scrupulous research — but still, emotion prevails.

This is no surprise because, simply, the emotions are stronger than the intellect. On PET scans of the brain, anger and fear “light up” significantly more often than the higher cognitive processes of reasoning and logic.

Think of a person with childhood-onset diabetes or a seizure disorder. No amount of hoping the condition away has any effect. It’s simply there, deep within, and must be treated constantly in order to stem the horrible symptoms that ensue if not attended to. Emotion-driven anti-Semitism is in this category — incurable but, unlike diabetes or epilepsy, unfortunately untreatable.

Strain #3 — the Self-Hate Factor

Okay, you may say, people of other religions may hate Jews, but how is it possible for Jews themselves to hate Jews? Surprisingly, the answer is rather simple: It’s hard to be a Jew, and this species is simply not up to it. Yes, they can be proud of their brains and talents, but when it comes to their backbones — that’s another story.

For many Jews, being a member of the world’s most historically vilified minority is just “too much” to cope with. In fact, to withstand the relentless onslaught would require them to have knowledge of Jewish history in order to correct the constant blitz of misinformation that an anti-Semitic world never tires of perpetuating, a willingness to stand on principle when the entire world is substituting propaganda and violence for righteousness, and a belief that the land of Israel was indeed bequeathed to the Jews by the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and that their return to Zion after Hitler incinerated six million of their brethren during the Holocaust was the fulfillment of biblical prophecy, proven for centuries––up to this month––by irrefutable archeological evidence.

Liberal Jews are not psychologically up to any of these challenges, hence their pathetic over-eagerness to “understand” the people who hate them, to accommodate themselves to the enemies of Israel, to capitulate to the ever-escalating and invariably-one-sided demands for “compromise,” to slavishly follow Jews like linguist Noam Chomsky, playwright Tony Kushner, and journalist Peter Beinert, who are so suffused with Jew hatred that their entire lives have been devoted to amputating any vestige of Jewish identity from their beings.

Strain #4 — the Mother’s Milk Factor

This variant is infused into tabula rasa embryos by a loathing so systemic that it suggests a DNA aberration. After delivery, infants literally imbibe a particularly toxic brew of anti-Semitism flowing either from their mothers’ breast milk or worldview. And when they have been sufficiently intoxicated, they enter into a family and “culture” that makes the hatred of Jews their entire raison d’être.

This strain has been on vivid display in the Arab world for decades — actually centuries — where toddlers are taught to echo the Jew hatred drummed daily into their developing brains, instead of being taught––as Israelis and all Jews do––how to play the piano or play ball or play with dolls, but where young children are taught by the time they’re three years old how to strap suicide bombs onto their young bodies.

It is in this “culture,” which has not changed significantly since the seventh century, that “leaders” continue to inflame the masses they have purposefully kept poor and ignorant, the better to energize them not with jobs and creativity but by a loathing fueled by adrenaline. These palace-dwelling leaders play the media like a Stradivarius to perpetuate the only product that competes with oil, which is hatred of Jews and Israel.

Strain #5 — the Green-eyed Monster Factor

According to author and columnist Dennis Prager, the reason that “for thousands of years there has been so much attention paid to Jews and why, today, to Israel, the one Jewish state,” is that Jews are God’s Chosen People.

But I think of an equally visceral kind of jealousy when I contemplate what it must have been like for a huge population of 450 million Arab Muslims in the Middle East to watch as the straggling remnants of European Jewry — cadaverous, hungry, heartbroken, stupefied by the cruelty they had endured and witnessed — rose up to defeat the savage Arab armies of Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria (backed by Saudi Arabia and Yemen) that tried to annihilate the nascent Jewish State in 1948 and then to defeat them again and again and again in the many wars the Arabs continued to initiate.

And then, to see the people they call “pigs” literally make long-barren deserts bloom, to have the Middle East’s only thriving economy, to lead the world in technology, science and medicine, to create magnificent symphonies and athletic teams and life-saving medical remedies, et al, while the most the Arab world has ever accomplished in the last eight decades is to “create” terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, et al, and of course those itty bitty suicide bombers?

All fueled by the green-eyed monster!

Strain #6 — the Bandwagon Factor

It’s impossible to know if any of these players has an upcoming election or is being bought off, bribed, or threatened, but what a coincidence! In a little more than a week, French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney decided to jump on the bandwagon of the most viciously anti-Israel organization in the world, the United Nations, and to join the foreign ministers of Andorra, Australia, Canada, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, San Marino, Slovenia, and Spain, to demand global recognition of the “State of Palestine” and an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

Then, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz––surprise surprise! ––announced a boycott on the transfer of military equipment to Israel. Then Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), suddenly decided that the crisis in Gaza was a “genocide.” Then, two weeks after posing for a smiling photo with PM Netanyahu, Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) suddenly found the starvation of Palestinians “unacceptable.” And then there is the Jew-hating bile of Lara Logan, and the beat goes on.

But make no mistake––this is all a huge collective expression of anti-Semitism! All of these people know of the massive shipments the Israelis have made to the area, the equally massive theft of those goods by Hamas, the phony pictures of starving children, as writer Hymie Rubinstein has documented,  and most of all that there is no starvation in Gaza!

All these strains of anti-Semitism can never be resolved––have never been resolved––by rationality or fairness or sanity. But if this scourge of hatred is ever cured/fixed/resolved, I strongly suspect that the Nobel Peace Prize will go either––as it should––to the best friend Israel ever had, President Donald J. Trump, or to a Jew!

July 30, 2025

Once upon a time, there was a rock-ribbed Conservative U.S. Senator who tried mightily to get an über-conservative law passed but was met with great resistance by his liberal colleagues. This went on not for months, but for almost two years.

But he was so persistent and determined that those same resistant colleagues––and their lapdogs in the leftwing media––started to call him “bulldog” ––even, at times, Senator Bulldog!

Then, one beautiful spring day, he was both astounded and delighted to learn that he had enough votes to pass his proposed law. The vote was to be taken shortly after the Senate came back from lunch.

As the senator walked along Constitution Avenue to his favorite lunch spot, The Capitol Hill Club, enjoying the gorgeous sight of the wisteria and magnolias and cherry blossoms in bloom, he felt ebullient and redeemed and also proud that his persistence, and the righteousness of his cause, would finally see the light.

There he was, Central Casting, walking tall in his blue suit, white shirt (with cufflinks!), red tie… the perfect symbolic colors, he thought, for this milestone day in his life.

HELLO, SENATOR!

As he strode along, another Central Casting figure came up to his side––tall, handsome, also dressed to the nines.

“Hello, Senator, how are you today?”

The Senator, long in public service, was accustomed to people he had never met greeting him, saying hello, wishing him well, or advising him on political matters. And, of course, insulting him.

“Thank you,” he replied to the stranger. “Very well… it’s a beautiful day.”

“Well, Senator,” said the stranger, “I know when you get back to the Senate, you’re going to vote NO on that proposed legislation.”

At this presumptuous, ridiculous, insulting and very bizarre remark, at the very idea that he would vote NO on the legislation he had worked on assiduously for almost two years, he turned to the strange man and asked with irritation in his voice: “Do I know you?”

“Well, no Senator,” the stranger replied, “we’ve never met. But I do know that your daughter just got an off-campus apartment in Virginia. Have a nice day, Senator!”

With that, the stranger jumped into a dark sedan that at that moment had conveniently pulled up to the curb and he was gone.

FACT OR FICTION?

I shared the above imaginary scenario with a few “inside D.C.” Democrat and Republican people I know––two acclaimed journalists, a hugely prominent Democrat politician, a longtime aide to an influential member of the U.S. Congress, and a high-ranking military official––and asked them if they thought my introduction rang true, was plausible, or was not at all credible.

To a person they said it was all too plausible. “Don’t change a word,” one person wrote.

That was no surprise to me because it is now clear to even skeptics and cynics that what the American public has known, or strongly suspected, for decades, is that the D.C. Swamp––meaning the government that We the People elected––is a virtual cesspool of corruption, malfeasance, grift, payoffs, bribes, and the very definition of criminality.

But is it also the very definition–-as the above scenario suggests––of murder-for-hire?

THE VP???

President John F. Kennedy

Even after 62 years, the question of who assassinated President John F. Kennedy in 1963 remains undecided, with theories ranging from a coverup decision by the Warren Commission, which blamed the 46-year-old president’s death on the “lone gunman” Lee Harvey Oswald, to author Rob Morrow’s contention and conclusion that the entire tragedy was conceived, choreographed and carried out by JFK’s VP, Lyndon Baines Johnson, and he recommends these two resources as proof: LBJ: Mastermind of the JFK Assassination by Phillip Nelson and this scholarly article by Jeremy Kuzmarov for Covert Action Magazine, which indicts LBJ for JFK’s death.

NO EXIT WOUND?

Vince Foster

Vince Foster served as White House counsel during the first six months of the Clinton Administration. According to The Washington Post, although Foster had risen to “the pinnacle of the Arkansas legal establishment,” he was unhappy at the White House and became depressed. In July 1993, 48-year-old Foster was found dead of a gunshot wound to his mouth in Fort Marcy Park. While five official government investigations ruled his death a suicide, conspiracy theories persisted, including that there was no exit wound, that the way Hillary Clinton’s chief of staff, Maggie Williams, handled Foster’s files and documents immediately after his death was fishy, and that the Clintons themselves were involved in his death. Strangely, in 2004, the Supreme Court ruled unanimously that pictures of the scene and autopsy should not be released.

THE INFAMOUS LAUNDRY LIST

Well, what a coincidence! The following year, 1993, the Clinton Body Count List made its debut, asserting that both Bill and Hillary Clinton  had secretly had their political opponents murdered, often making it look like suicides. At the time, the list totaled 50 victims, but since then has ballooned, with political consultant and lobbyist Roger Stone asserting that the Clintons were responsible for the deaths of dozens of people, including Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and John F. Kennedy Jr.

A BULLET HOLE?

Ron Brown

On April 3, 1996, Ron Brown, 54, a lawyer, former Navy Captain, politician and lobbyist who was the United States secretary of commerce during President Clinton’s first term, and before that the chairman of the Democratic National Committee was killed, along with 34 others, in a 1996 plane crash in Croatia. The Air Force attributed the crash to pilot error and a poorly designed landing approach, but conspiracists suspected a coverup because Brown was under investigation for corruption and because doctors conducting an autopsy found a circular wound on top of his head, which they discounted as a bullet hole, but that others theorized was indeed a bullet hole.

MURDERED?

Andrew Breitbart

After helping The Huffington Post and The Drudge Report get off the ground, conservative journalist Andrew Breitbart founded Breitbart News, which was credited with exposing the Anthony Weiner texting scandal and the alleged vote-rigging of ACORN, among other blockbuster news events. Previously left leaning, he changed his political views, describing himself as “85% conservative and 15% libertarian.” He took on liberal icons like Nancy Pelosi, and hours after Sen. Ted Kennedy died in August 2009, Breitbart called him a “villain”, a “duplicitous bastard”, …and “a special pile of human excrement”, adding, “Sorry, he destroyed lives. And he knew it,” referring to Kennedy’s actions during the Chappaquiddick incident, the Robert Bork Supreme Court nomination, and the Clarence Thomas Supreme Court nomination. On February 29, 2012, Breitbart collapsed on a street near his home in Brentwood and died the next day at the age of 43 of heart failure, according to an autopsy. And eerily, just a couple of weeks later, the coroner who worked on his body died by poisoning. But in the International Business Times, journalist Amanda Remling wrote in an article entitled “Andrew Breitbart Cause of Death: Was He Assassinated?” She reported that, “Right before the blogger’s death he claimed to have videos that showed President Obama’s ties to radicals in the 1980s. The videos are going to come out, Breitbart had said. The narrative is going to come out that Barack Obama met a bunch of silver ponytails back in the 1980s like Bill [Ayers] and Bernadine Dorhn who, equally radical, said ‘One day we’re going to have the presidency.’”

PUNISHED?

Seth Rich

On July 10, 2016, at 4:18 a.m., Seth Rich, an employee of the Democratic National Convention, was shot two times in the back, rushed to a nearby hospital where he died at the age of 27. According to writer Mark Oliver, “rumors and theories started to spread about why a young man in the prime of his life had met his end on a dark street in Washington, D.C. The police said it was an attempted robbery gone wrong, but hard evidence discounted that theory. However, stories soon started to spread that Seth’s death was planned, and that he was the man who had leaked the Democratic Party’s e-mails to Wikileaks,” a website cofounded by Julian Assange, whose past and present involve both creativity and imprisonment. According to this website, “Wikileaks has never officially said that Rich was the source of their leak, but they have done pretty much everything they can to suggest it.”

THE GRACE OF GOD

President Donald J. Trump

And they still haven’t found out who ordered the hit––twice! ––on President Trump!

TARGET?

Ghislaine Maxwell

A wealthy and educated European-born-and-raised socialite, Maxwell moved to New York in 1990 after her father, media mogul Robert Maxwell, bought the New York Daily News and chose her to act as his emissary. She is famous for collaborating with the financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on his island home in the Caribbean, where people were flown on his airplane “the Lolita Express.” In court documents, Epstein’s accusers allege that Maxwell acted as a recruiter, an instructor, and in some cases a participant in the abuse he practiced. In 2021, she was found guilty of child sex trafficking and other offenses and sentenced to 20 years’ imprisonment.

Now, the House Oversight Committee and the U.S. Department of Justice has summoned Maxwell to testify. But mmmmm…. House breaks early when the Epstein issue comes up!

If there is no Epstein client list, as Attorney General Bondi and President Trump have pronounced, Maxwell can waltz into D.C. with no bodyguards and no worries. But if there is a list, we have to ask ourselves: What could possibly go wrong?

As I’ve said in many articles, this is the short list. But it makes you wonder, doesn’t it, if all the lofty verbiage our politicians express about their intentions to better our lives is simply a glib coverup for the criminality they routinely engage in.

July 3, 2025

Not long ago, I ran into a long-lost acquaintance who always assumed––always incorrectly––that I was simpatico with her leftist leanings. Maybe it was my long hair or dangling earrings or that I liked to listen to Joe Cocker.

I remembered that she always appeared distressed, not because of a cancer diagnosis or trouble with her two children or a problem in her marriage or with her job as private secretary to a malpractice lawyer, but because of one or another of the endless planet-killing problems that occupy the daily bad thoughts and nightly nightmares of liberals.

Her list was long, and always growing––saving the whales, redistributing income, ending poverty, air pollution, land pollution,  the colossal hoax of climate change (as explained by the founder of the Weather Channel, John Coleman), human rights, animal rights, women’s rights, gun control, world hunger, universal (free) healthcare, big business and, of course capitalism! Oh, did I omit the U.S. Constitution?!

So, when we ran into each other, I wasn’t surprised that this woman––who probably should have been on antidepressants or antianxiety meds for decades––looked her ole glum self.

“How are you?” I asked, “your kids, your husband, your job, your life?”

“No problems in those departments,” she said. “But look at the world! The news!”

DIDN’T TAKE HER LONG…

“What are you referring to?”, I asked her.

“Oh, the news,” she opined, “I think Netanyahu has ruined Israel!”

“Well, a lot of people don’t like it when Jews fight back,” I said.

“But it’s so disproportionate,” she shot back.

It’s not often that you have a ready answer for people with whom you disagree. Usually, you think of the perfect comeback when you wake up at two in the morning.

But as it happened, I simply had the cold hard facts on my side, so it was almost shooting fish in a barrel to answer this Jew-hating, Israel-loathing liberal.

DO YOU REMEMBER?

My response to her came in a series of questions.

“Do you remember,” I asked her, “when we watched the entire Iraq War –– from 2003 to 2011––on TV, for years? And the endless articles and commentaries and news coverage, all day and all night?”

“Of course,” she responded.

“Well, even before that,” I said, “going back to the sixties, do you remember the years-on end coverage of the Vietnam War––from 1964 to 1973––and the morning and afternoon and nightly news coverage and commentaries the impassioned anti-war demonstrations across the country protesting this war?”

“You know I do,” she said. “I was on the frontline of those protests. I was with the so-called traitor Jane Fonda all the way!’

STILL GOING DOWN MEMORY LANE

“How about the Korean War in the 1950s,” I asked her, “which wasn’t covered so extensively on TV––TV was relatively new in that decade––but which a million articles were written about, not to mention the extensive radio commentary?”

“Okay,” she said, “and your point?”

“One more question,” I begged her indulgence. “How about World War11 in the 1940s, when 140,000 died in Hiroshima and 74,000 died in Nagasaki after we bombed them?” And that is not to omit the massive, overwhelming loss of life from that war––70–85 million deaths.

“Stop with the statistics, already!” she blurted out. “What is your point?”

INDEED…THE POINT

What I told my long-lost acquaintance was that in every war I named, in the massive injuries and deaths that resulted from these wars, in the overwhelmingly panoramic and international coverage these wars received on TV and radio, in the literally trillions of words that had been written and spoken in covering all these wars, the word “proportionality” had never been expressed––not in verbal broadcasts, not in writing––NOT ONCE before Jewish warriors fought back against the savages that attacked them on October 7, 2023.

NEVER!

Look it up. Do your own research.

THE P WORD

“Why is that?” I asked her.

As her eyes widened and she searched for words, I volunteered my own theory.

“I’ll tell you why,” I said. “Because the people who chant ‘proportionality’ hate Jews and detest Israel, but they try to cloak their long-held hatred in a transparent attempt to sound virtuous and caring for…. whom?

“Is it for the Hamas Arab rapists who were so violent that they broke the pelvic bones of their victims and then took babies out of their arms and put them in ovens to bake to death? Who photographed their sadistic violence and then showed it to their proud families as they passed out candy to celebrate?”

“Let’s talk about proportionality,” I went on. “Let’s say that 250 Israeli women were raped.  Are you suggesting that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) tell their troops that, yes, you have our full permission to rape 250 Arab women. But NOT 251!”

I stopped talking as I witnessed a rare case of muteness from Ms. Proportionality.

Of course, I knew that neither facts nor statistics would change her hermetically sealed mind, but there was pleasure in this brief moment anyway.

UNDERSTANDING WAR

“But war is always wrong,” she said. “There’s no reason we can’t learn to get along.”

Aha, the Rodney King mantra!

“Well, Israel has tried to get along for 46 years,” I said. “Are you suggesting that they go for 47?”

Before I gave up, I explained to this colossally clueless woman that war has nothing to do with proportionality. That war has everything to do with winning!

You attack me…I fight back. Not to deflect your attack. Not to intimidate you. Not to indulge in a body count to make sure it’s “fair” or “equal” or not “humiliating.”

It’s to destroy you and to make sure that you never ever ever come after me again with the intention of annihilating me and my family and my country.

“Capeesh?” I asked her.

“To be honest,” she responded, “I never understood why Jane Fonda was such a pariah. She was just following her conscience.”

That’s when I clearly understood why God coined the word “hopeless.”

June 6, 2025

When I was a nursing student decades ago, a doctor friend told me about an interesting case in which he performed a routine yearly checkup on a 12-year-old boy, including blood and urine tests, and to his surprise this healthy-looking preteen had blood in his urine. The doctor promptly ordered an intravenous pyelogram (IPG)–now in medicine’s dinosaur museum–– which revealed that in one of the youngster’s kidneys, the renal medulla––the innermost region––and the renal cortex––the outermost region––were reversed, and as a result the aberrant kidney took four hours longer to collect and then empty the body of urine.

But the doctor told me that the funniest thing was his mother’s reaction. “She said, ‘How did this happen, what did I do?’, and I told her that maybe she had the same thing, but she never had an IPG!”

Speaking of kidneys, I learned years later that a distant relative found out in his late forties, again as the result of a modern medical test, that he was born with only one kidney! And sticking with the theme of hidden phenomena, I recently learned that a former neighbor went to a neurologist with hand tremors, and the MRI the doctor prescribed revealed a hemangioma––a cluster of blood vessels––in his brain!

“How did this happen?” he asked the doctor.

“It might have been there for 20 years,” the doctor said, “even maybe since you were born!”

LESSON: There are approximately eight-billion people in the world and just about all of whom know nothing about what’s going on inside of their bodies…an undiscovered tooth high in the gum, an insect embedded in the skull, an undetected stroke, I even knew a man in his eighties––a friend and neighbor––whose doctors found a deeply-lodged bullet!

RELEVANCE???

What does all this have to do with politics?

Everything!

To explain. After World War II and the unspeakable, malignant horrors of the Holocaust were revealed for all the world to see––six-million Jews, from infants to centenarians and everyone in between––rounded up, crammed into suffocating cattle cars, hauled off to concentration camps, and gassed to death in Hitler’s crematoria, effectively eliminating half of the microscopic Jewish population of 12-million Jews in the entire world.

Surviving Jews all over the world dared not tell their children of this catastrophe, the better to shield them from lifelong paranoia, dread and depression.

But what followed––from the war’s end in 1945 to the miraculous advent of Israel becoming a state in 1948, and for about a decade or more beyond––was encouraging to these protective parents. Not one word of Jew hatred or vicious stereotypes or calls for the death of the Jews.

Aha, these naïve Americans––and Jews throughout the world––believed. Humanity has learned its lesson. We finally, at last, after almost 4,000 years, have nothing to worry about. Baruch Hashem!

WHAT LIES BENEATH

What Jews didn’t realize was that it was not benevolence or compassion or empathy that motivated the behavior of many in the outside world, but rather the self-interested preservation of the image they wanted to convey…of decency, tact, discretion, moral clarity.

But just like the clandestine kidney and the hidden hemangioma, the pathology––of Jew hatred––was there, probably, as the above-mentioned doctor speculated, for decades!

Inculcated early––in homes, houses of worship, schools––and magnified when the State of Israel was established, it was mostly manifested in certain institutions, professions, even country clubs that enacted quotas which excluded Jews, in a few vicious media stereotypes and in personal insults.

But it wasn’t destructive enough to stop this miniscule minority––most of whom fled to America with no money and no knowledge of the English language––from flourishing wildly in every avenue they pursued, from science and medicine to business to law to literature and other arts, the list is long.

When denied entry into medical schools, they built the finest hospitals in the country…to this day! When denied entry into top law firms, they established their own. When denied opportunities in the entertainment industry, they literally created Hollywood.

By the 21^st century, Jews had more than arrived. Although still a tiny minority of 5.8 million––or 2.4 percent out of a total population of 345-million––they have occupied several seats on the US Supreme Court, served in great numbers  as US Senators and members of Congress, enjoyed full professorships at America’s top colleges and universities, contributed mightily to America’s health through their discoveries and innovations, founded massively successful businesses, among them Dunkin Donuts, Dreamworks, Estee Lauder, Facebook, Google, H & R Block, Home Depot, Starbucks, Slim-Fast, on and on and on.  And in recent headlines, in the National Collegiate Athletic Association’s (NCAA) Final Four, three of the coaches were Jewish.

THE CESSPOOL ERUPTS, RAW SEWAGE EVERYWHERE

Then October 7, 2023, happened.

To be accurate, this subhuman-initiated catastrophe was preceded by a phenomenon never before seen in America, the entrance of blatant, virulent, noxious Democrat anti-Semites not only being elected to the U.S. Congress but blaring their toxic, Jew-detesting Israel-loathing racism for all to see and hear.

And without one single solitary word of disapproval from a sitting Democrat, including nine Democrats in the Senate––and Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer––and 21 Democrats in the House. And don’t let them tell you they sent out press releases of disapproval…they mean nothing!

The sole defender of Israel and condemner of his Party’s racism has been Senator John Fetterman (D-PA), who the rest of the Democrat Party has now marginalized, if not dismissed.

But even worse than this Democrat travesty, which was ultimately rejected by 77-million people in their thunderous election of President Trump last November, is the true pandemic of anti-Semitism that has transcended the clandestine kidney and the hidden hemangioma.

Now, the once-hidden hatred is out in the open. World leaders—most recently in France, the United Kingdom, and Canada––but they are not alone––have given us a vivid picture of their psychological and racist hatred of Jews from their metaphorical X-rays, sonograms, MRIs and PET scans. They have let us look inside their hearts and minds and see clearly that their hatred––and probably jealousy––of Jews and of their biblically inherited homeland, Israel, is again, as the aforementioned doctor speculated, from birth, and no doubt in their DNA!

Here, Yonah Elias skewers these moral cowards.

LESSON

There is not a baby in the world born with hate in his or her heart. Hate is taught. Hate is learned. What we have been witnessing––really since Obama made his ignominious debut in our body politic––was that the hate that is learned has remarkable staying power. It transcends education and objective reality and cold hard facts. It is animating and energizing. After our most powerful emotion, fear, come jealousy and hate, which are often in desperate competition with each other.

And there’s nothing quite like the bandwagon effect to mobilize these haters into action. Hence, the great number of people who conveniently forget that it was Israel who was savagely attacked by the terrorists whose very charter pronounces genocide as its major goal!

But history doesn’t change. The world hated Jews when they were defenseless and now, they especially hate Jews when they fight back. And prevail!

From now on, when you look at the pro-terrorist politicians and media whores and United Nations shills, don’t be surprised. Just shrug your shoulders or turn to your friend and say: “Hemangioma, probably since birth!”

Clean Up in Aisle 4!

In this allegorical scenario, Honey and Hank moved into a cozy home in a small community in New England 30 years ago.  The next day, their neighbor, Irene, brings over a hot, homemade casserole to welcome them to the neighborhood.

Within minutes, Honey and Irene “connect” in a phenomenon known as human chemistry. They just seem to “get” each other. And as their relationship evolves, they learn that they are on the same page on just about everything: raising kids, favorite foods, must-see TV programs, Mommy-and-Me classes, even the crocheting and knitting that their grandmothers taught them. And each of them has three children, with two of them having the same name!

As luck would have it, their husbands also hit it off and have quite a lot in common, the biggest that both are on-the-road salesmen.

Over the years, the couples become so close that they vacation and celebrate birthdays and holidays together. Honey and Irene even exchange house keys and list each other as emergency contacts on medical forms.

All good…for 30 years!

Uh-Oh…

Then, one day, Honey gets a phone call from her bank manager, Mr. Hervey, requesting that she and Hank come in for a sit-down.

“Of course,” Honey says, speculating with Hank that the investment they made with the bank’s money manager has either yielded a brilliant bonanza or — yikes — has gone bust.

When they sit down the next day with the Mr. Hervey — whom they call Linc, short for Lincoln — they notice a decidedly serious look on his face.

“Look,” he says. “We live in a small town where everyone knows everything about everyone else. I know Irene and her husband Fred very well. And I know how close you’ve been over all these years. I even know that you exchanged house keys in case of an emergency. And Honey, I know that you gave Irene the PIN to your bank account, again in case of an emergency.”

At this point, Honey and Hank are nonplussed, having no idea where Linc Hervey is going with this strange introduction.

“Well, I hate to tell you this,” he says, “but we just discovered that over the years — many, many years — Irene has been withdrawing money from your account — very cleverly, so you would never notice — but now it has added up to a small fortune.  A real fortune.”

When Mr. Hervey tells them the amount, they are both dumbstruck, speechless, almost out of breath.

Enter Politics

Both Hank and Fred, as mentioned, were businessmen, capitalists, conservatives. At the same time, both men tolerated that their wives were liberals with do-gooder instincts to save the climate, save the whales, save humanity! Both men had decided that it wasn’t worth arguing, because most other things in their lives were so harmonious.

But sitting in front of the bank manager, who had just informed him that his wife’s best friend was a colossal fraud, a thief, and worthy of a felony conviction, Hank immediately took out his iPhone and looked up the numbers of his lawyer and his local police department, with the intention of having Irene (and possibly her husband Fred, as a co-conspirator) served with papers and then arrested and, he hoped, indicted and imprisoned.

Honey, on the other hand, started screaming at the bank manager. “How dare you accuse Irene of any wrongdoing? You are on a witch hunt. You have no proof!”

“Unfortunately, Honey, we have empirical proof,” Linc said, “all scrupulously documented on our computers, going back years, in fact decades.”

Skip to 2025

Is this scenario not exactly what Americans — and, for that matter, the entire world — have been witnessing in real time as Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) discover the malfeasance, fraud, and criminality of not the fictional housewife Irene, but the real live people who run our massive government institutions? To name only a few, there are the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the Pentagon, and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).  All of these have been fleecing our country — with our tax dollars — not of millions or billions, but of trillions of dollars!

In fact, DOGE has been unearthing the deep corruption involving both Republicans and (mostly) Democrats and proving the maxim that to unearth criminal behavior, always, always, always follow the money!

We have learned that our elected officials have sent vast fortunes to terrorist groups with eye-popping millions upon millions of dollars.  And looky here:

Among other egregious examples of the kinds of waste, fraud, and abuse DOGE has been uncovering is that tens of millions of dead people are on our Social Security rolls, many of them children and people over 115 years old! And look what DOGE found — that $4.7 trillion in payments from the Treasury Department were “almost impossible” to track. That is trillion, with a T!

DOGE has also found that California, New York, and Massachusetts, three deep-blue states — surprise, surprise! — were responsible for over half of the fraudulent unemployment claims in the United States since 2020, again involving massive mountains of  money.

Enter the Pearl-Clutchers

OMG, bleat the perpetually sky-is-falling, glass-is-half-empty leftists. This is illegitimate! While, according to Victor Davis Hanson, Musk acts completely under executive authority.

Like Honey, they are shooting the messenger. That is understandable. After all, most of the criminality has been committed by the people they trusted, sent money to, voted for, based their entire belief systems on. Talk about an existential threat!

But unlike Honey, if it were their own personal bank accounts that were robbed, you can be sure they would be squarely in Hank’s camp, going after the crooks with the intention of bringing them to justice.

They remind me of a child having a temper tantrum in Aisle 4 of a supermarket — flailing arms, copious tears, kicking and screaming, crashing the cans and breakable jars off the shelf, simply because Mommy didn’t buy those all-important Animal Crackers.

“Clean-up in Aisle 4” is then blared over the loudspeaker.

That is what DOGE is all about: cleaning up the monumental financial mess that our greedy and corrupt elected officials and government agencies have inflicted on all of us.

Here is a way to keep track of the immense savings — and criminality — DOGE is uncovering every day.  So far, literally billions — going on trillions — in fraud, waste and abuse.

May this grand effort to Make America Great — and financially solvent — Again continue unimpeded!

April 7, 2025

King Solomon said, “There is nothing new under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:9).

The sun rises, and the sun goes down… all streams run to the sea… what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.

In his prescience, King Solomon no doubt knew that one of the things that would remain the same was the obdurate persistence––over thousands of years––of maniacal Jew-hatred and a fanatical loathing of Israel.

If it weren’t so serious, and deadly, it would be almost comical, considering that the massive, heavily armed, immensely populated, and hugely influential empires that tried to annihilate the Jews—the Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Assyrians, et al.––have been extinct for centuries, while the teeny, tiny world of Judaism flourishes to this day.

And that is not to omit the Crusades, the Inquisition, the forced conversions, and the 20th century Holocaust in which Hitler’s “willing executioners“––all over Europe––succeeded in mass-murdering half of the world’s Jewry. Here is a partial picture of Jewish history and persecution that makes the vibrancy and resiliency of Israel during wartime even more amazing!

But not so amazing that today, in the putatively evolved 21st century, the historical scourge of viciously rampant Jew-hatred not only gallops across the globe but has also exploded exponentially in hundreds if not thousands of colleges and universities in our own country!

THE OCTOBER 7^TH PHENOMENON

Simple logic would dictate that when a catastrophe happens––be it an earthquake, a tsunami, a horrific accident, a Pacific Palisades-like fire ––the world at large would:

1. Rush to help the victims.
2. Lament if not excoriate the lack of preparation that led to the disaster.
3. Demand accountability and legal and financial redress.

In fact, that usually happens, at least to a greater or lesser degree.

And if the catastrophe involves the wholesale murder, rape, torture, brutal isolation, starvation, sexual sadism, and insanity-producing sensory deprivation of innocent civilians––including pregnant women, infants, teenagers, the elderly––then certainly the world at large would:

1. Come racing to the rescue,
2. Speak in one voice of the immorality and criminality of these acts,
3. Insist on maximum––even death sentence–punishment for the perpetrators.
4. Provide ongoing comfort, empathy, sympathy and help for the victims.

In fact, that also usually happens, at least to a greater or lesser degree.

But that is not what happened on October 7, 2023, when the well-trained and generously-financed hate machine known as Hamas––whose Iranian benefactor’s Charter, as well as their own, call for the complete annihilation of Israel and the death of every Jew on earth.

All of a sudden, it seemed that all the people and organizations and universities who advertise themselves as “humanitarian,” who lobby endlessly to Save the Planet, who want you to believe that the value of human life (except for in utero infants) is sacrosanct, burst en masse out of the rancid-racism closet.

As if being led by a choirmaster, they sang in unison: “We Support the Murderers!”

WHY?

Jew hatred comes in many strains.

Strain #1 — the Dumb Factor, based mostly on ignorance, where a dim-witted parent, friend, teacher, coach, et al, tells an innocent child that much of what is wrong with his or her life is because of “the Jew” who lives down the street or employs his or her parent or publishes the local newspaper…whatever. Dumb is forever.

Strain #2 — the Emotional Factor. There are legions of intelligent people with high IQs, advanced college degrees, professional accomplishments, published books, and fancy titles, who are nonetheless driven almost exclusively by their feelings. The emotional anti-Semite is one into whose brain the thorn of Jew hatred gets stuck, and no amount of objective, empirical evidence or higher-center thought can excise it.

Strain #3 — the Self-Hate Factor. Yes, you may understand that people of other religions might hate Jews, but how is it possible for Jews to hate themselves? The answer is rather simple: It’s hard to be a Jew, and this ilk is simply not up to it. For many Jews––particularly Democrat liberals––being a member of the world’s most historically vilified minority is just “too much” to cope with.

Strain #4 — the Mother’s Milk Factor. This variant involves an aberration of DNA. After delivery, infants literally imbibe a particularly toxic brew of anti-Semitism flowing either from their mothers’ breast milk or worldview. And when they have been sufficiently contaminated, the hatred of Jews becomes their entire raison d’être.

SYMPTOMS OF THIS MALADY

One thing about Jew haters and Israel loathers, they are remarkably unoriginal. While their reasons for hating Jews may have changed over the centuries, the symptoms of their racism have remained the same:

• Thinking obsessively about Jews,
• Fulminating with hatred toward Jews,
• Blaming everything wrong in their lives and in society on Jews,
• Joining with other racists to inflict harm on Jews,
• In many cases, devoting their lives to this obsession.

Most is not all of it driven––this is so obvious––by pathological jealousy!

Interestingly, they never seem to wonder why it is that out of eight-billion people in the world—about 2.2-billion Christians, approximately one-billion Protestants, and 1.8-billion Muslims (the majority in 49 countries), they cannot deal with or destroy the 16-million Jews—seven million in the U.S., eight million in Israel, and about one million around the word.

It must make them feel immensely stupid or impotent, hence even angrier than their usual fixated state of fury.

But like every liberal, leftist, progressive—whatever they’re calling themselves these days—who thinks that the crashing failures of socialism and communism in world history were a function of bad management, so the Jew haters of the world think they will finally get the anti-Semitism thing right and once and for all get rid of the people, and their country, that make them feel so bad and inferior and stupid and impotent every minute of every day and every night—including weekends and holidays!

THE HISTORY IS THERE

Before October 7^th, it was inconceivable in America—a country that welcomes the stranger, strives mightily for equality, and allows minorities to succeed far beyond their expectations—that many of our leaders have been outright racists themselves, with a particularly irrational hatred toward Jews.

But going back to Franklin Delano Roosevelt––whose Jew hatred has been exhaustively documented by professor, columnist, and author Rafael Medoff, among others––to the Ayatollah-infatuated Jimmy Carter, who to his dying day had a “special animus“ toward Jews and Israel, and not to omit the seething Jew hatred of Barack Obama, as spelled out here, here, here, and here, the list has no end.

But who could have imagined that in the so-called evolved culture of 2025, we would find that among the most maniacally anti-Semitic people in the world––and among the most powerful––were those in the Biden regime, which I documented here,  here,  here  and here.

Very unfortunately, many of them are apostate Jews…you know, the species that has replaced Judaism with their own fetishistic, cult-like religion of Social Justice––a cult that worships at the altar of political correctness, multiculturalism, moral relativism, and a convoluted and racist construct called intersectionality.

And all of them, to this day, are––surprise surprise––Democrats, including a remarkably large number of elected members of the U.S. Congress! We have all witnessed the ferocious Jew hatred and abhorrence of Israel vomited out on a regular basis by the growing number of racist Democrats aka “the Squad,” a list gets longer every day.

WHAT TO DO?

Nothing! Why? Because if history is any measure, all those who detest Jews and abhor Israel today will go the way of the Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Assyrians, and Democrats, and, in a thousand years, Israel will still be contributing disproportionately to mankind, inhabiting double or triple or possibly quadruple of their land size, and not only doing just fine, but evoking the same hatred and jealousy as they do today.

Plus ça change, plus la même chose!

February 4, 2025

Just a few days ago, I took issue with the Doomsday Squad of prominent pearl-clutchers and naysayers––including Harvard Law professor emeritus, Alan Dershowitz; Director of Jihad Watch and prolific author, Robert Spence; President of the Middle East Forum, Daniel Pipes; prolific British writer Melanie Phillips; and the formidable Morton Klein of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA)––all of whom condemned in the strongest language the ceasefire/hostage-release deal that then-President-elect Donald Trump insisted on before his January 20, 2025 inauguration.

In fact, Mr. Trump had sent a threatening ultimatum to Hamas, letting them know that the consequences of their failure to comply with the deal that his envoy––lawyer and business mega-mogul Steve Witkoff––worked out, would be the following: “There will be ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East, and for those in charge who perpetrated these atrocities against Humanity.”

The then-President-elect concluded by warning that, ”Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW!”’

QUESTION

What if Mr. Biden had uttered these words on October 7, 2023? Had promised to defend Israel with all possible resources, both monetary as well as the “hell to pay” power of the American military?

And, as they did upon hearing Mr. Trump’s words about the hostages, the Hamas terrorist cult complied by backing off and ending their bloodthirsty savagery?

And what if Mr. Biden had not inflicted an arms embargo on Israel, severely hurting the momentum of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in the middle of the genuinely existential war the tiny Jewish state has been waging against not one but seven surrounding enemies –– Hamas, Hezbollah, Syrian groups, the Houthis, Yemen, Iran, and Iraqi groups?

What if he had been a true ally and unleashed those weapons, which President Trump ––to his credit––did release immediately after taking the oath of office!

MORE FROM PAPER TIGER JB

After the three young Israeli women hostages were released on January 19^th, Hamas once again demonstrated an inability to keep its word by changing the agreed-upon date to release the names of several other hostages, thus delaying their release.

But it only took a few words from American and Israeli commentators for the keffiyeh-camouflaged terrorists to back down, with one headline reading; “Scared of Trump?”

QUESTION

What if Mr. Biden had let it be known that changing the rules was unacceptable…big time?

Would those predictably glass-is-half-empty savants have wrung their hands in despair and written that the world is practically coming to an end?

Of course not. Because what now-President Trump has flushed out over the past nine years–– since he and his wife Melania descended the escalator in Trump Tower––are the astounding numbers of weak-kneed politicians and commentators who are so afraid of the righteous assertion of power and the positive things it can bring about, that they inevitably opt for and support the passive accommodators and apologists who have contaminated the  political landscape for the last four years, as well as for the eight years that preceded President Trump’s first term.

But much more crucial is this question: If Mr. Biden had acted as President Trump has acted, would we today be 15 months away from a war that never happened? With almost 900 fallen IDF soldiers still with us? With the unspeakable horror of the hostages’ suffering never having taken place?

MORE FROM JB, THE PUPPET PRESIDENT

Shortly before the election, President-elect Trump spelled out to all college administrators, in language clear as crystal, what he planned to do immediately upon taking the oath of office about the metastasis of anti-Semitism on college campuses, a strategy designed to stop the harassment, bullying, and vicious criminal behavior clearly endorsed not only by professors and administrators, but by the rampaging mobs of racist students we have witnessed over the past four years.

“They will lose their accreditation and federal funding,” he said.

Translation: All these schools will lose the objective measure by outside agencies of quality and educational value, and also the loss of multi, multi, multimillions of dollars every year.

And the perpetrators, Mr. Trump continued, “will be found accountable and charged with violations of the Civil Rights laws.”

Well, whaddaya know. Colleges are already complying!

QUESTION

What if Mr. Biden had made this simple announcement, instead of reflexively––and preposterously––warning our citizens of the dangers of Islamophobia?

Imagine sparing our nation all those months––all these past four years––of all that violence and damage and danger and, again, malevolent racism

THE LIST GOES ON

The What If list is too long––at least a few doctoral theses in length––for a mere article.

What if Mr. Biden had done or said X, Y, Z? Would we have been spared such astronomically high food and gas prices, or the luxury hotels in several sanctuary states being filled with illegal migrants for a reported $1-billion-dollar cost per city?

Would we have been spared the five wars––count ‘em, in Darfur, Yemen, Myanmar, Ukraine and Israel––that didn’t exist when Trump 45 was in office?

Most important, would we have been spared the violence, the grief, the bloodshed of the Hamas-Israeli War?

THE HATRED OF JEWS AND ISRAEL ON STEROIDS

Let’s figure it out. Going back to Barack Obama’s eight-year regime, there was clearly a fetish with putting nuclear weapons in the hands of the Iranian mullahs––for peaceful purposes, of course.

All the Democrat powers-that-be at the time––and to this day––supported this plan, even though they had all read the Iranian Charter and Mission Statement, both of which stated that their Number One goal––their objective, their desire, their very raison d’être––was to wipe the State of Israel off the map and to make sure that every last Jew on earth was dead.

They also knew that Iran was the sponsor of the bands of criminals, thugs and murderers that the United States of America has listed as terrorist groups––Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Yemenite Houthis, which Mr. Biden took of the list and President Trump just put back on the list.

None of this mattered to the leftist radicals who continued to believe––and who believe to this day––that nothing was more important than putting nuclear weapons in the hands of the arch enemy of our faithful ally Israel.

But when President Trump 45 posed severe sanctions against Iran, in essence bringing about a depressed economy, the threat toward Israel somewhat abated.

However, when Joe Biden occupied the Oval Office, he immediately lifted those punitive sanctions because, as stated, nothing is more important to the Democrat enemies of Israel than putting a nuclear threat in Israel’s backyard.

It is sad, actually tragic, as well as infuriating, to think what things might look like today if President Trump’s four-year sabbatical never happened.

Oy vey! The glass is not half empty—it’s completely empty!

Oy gevalt! The sky really is falling!

That’s what our purportedly most astute and seasoned political commentators would have you believe about the ceasefire agreement that was reached just a day or so ago between Hamas and Israel.

These pearl-clutching, handwringing, anxiety filled savants have now become 2025’s Doomsday Squad. But it sounds to me like they all participated in the same Zoom session, so similar are their dire messages and predictions.

And so wrong-headed!

The esteemed Harvard Law professor emeritus, Alan Dershowitz, opined that “it wasn’t a deal; it was  a crime.”

“This was not the result of a negotiation between equals. If an armed robber puts a gun to your head and says, ‘your money or your life,’ your decision to give him your money would not be described as a deal,” he said.

“Would you call it a deal if somebody kidnapped your child, and you ‘agreed’ to pay ransom to get her back? Of course not. The kidnapping was a crime. And the extortionate demand was an additional crime,” Dershowitz continued.

The estimable Robert Spencer, director of Jihad Watch and prolific author, asked “How bad is it? It makes a replay, and quite likely more than one replay, of Hamas’ massacre of 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023, a very real possibility…the deal also involves ‘the release of 50 Palestinian Arab terrorists serving life sentences. These are essentially convicted murderers with Jewish blood on their hands who are likely to murder Jews again.’”

The widely known commentator and President of the Middle East Forum, Daniel  Pipes, called the deal “momentous” and “horrific.”

“The deal, Pipes concluded, “releases many hundreds of hardened Islamist criminals, now free to return to their murderous ways. It nearly assures continued Hamas rule in Gaza. It boosts Islamist morale worldwide. It humiliates the West’s foremost Middle Eastern ally.”

The prolific British writer Melanie Phillips also weighed in, writing that negotiating with Qatar was “dealing with the devil,” and that the jubilant Arabs were ecstatic because they believed that the deal “would enable them now, finally, to destroy Israel and the Jews.”

In addition, the formidable Morton Klein of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) issued this stern warning: “No responsible Israeli government should agree to such a dangerous surrender deal. Didn’t the government learn from the 2011 Gilad Shalit deal, in which Israel received one Israeli hostage for releasing 1,027 Palestinian Arab terrorists (including October 7 mastermind Yahya Sinwar) who were collectively responsible for killing 569 Israelis? The Shalit deal resulted in October 7, numerous other terror attacks, the murders of more than 2,000 innocent Jews and the maiming of many thousands of innocent Jews and others.”

And to top it off, several high-ranking members of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s coalition threatened to leave if he signed the deal, which was predicted to result in total chaos in the Knesset. They include National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, who called the deal “reckless,” as well as Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, and Minister of Diaspora Affairs Amihai Chikli.

Bottom line, each of these critics––and dozens of others––denigrated both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President-elect Donald Trump for agreeing to and participating in one of history’s worst deals!

OTOH

My question to these critics: What do you think the conversation was when the Israeli Prime Minister visited the President-elect at his Mar-a-Lago estate last July? Do you suppose they discussed the poetry of Emily Dickinson?

Do you think they studiously avoided discussion of the ongoing and escalating war not between but among Israel and Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, Syria, Yemen, and Iraqi groups, and what to do about this existential threat to the tiny Jewish state?

Do you think they wished each other well and parted ways with handshakes and smiles?

I don’t.

THE PLAN OF ACTION

I think that President-elect didn’t pressure PM Netanyahu at all, that he simply suggested a strategy that would work.

And it did!

Given his solution-oriented nature, Mr. Trump told the PM that he would threaten to annihilate the mass murderers who not only threatened to obliterate the entire state of Israel but to extinguish the lives of every Jew in the world. That this threat…this promise…was actually written down in their charter and mission statement and boasted about by like-minded advocates of this death cult.

Well…. POOF! As soon as Mr. Trump posted those “hell to pay” words––because they believed him––magic! Hamas agreed to negotiate and Israel, wisely, agreed.

Why wisely? Because Mr. Trump never took back his original words––there would be “hell to pay” if the hostages were not released before his inauguration….in just a couple of days…. January 20^th, 2025!

SOME PEOPLE “GET” IT

Right off the bat, U.S. Representative Mike Waltz, President-elect Trump’s choice for National Security Adviser, announced that he vowed that the Trump Administration would support Israel resuming operations in Gaza if Hamas violated the ceasefire deal.

US Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) speaks on Day 1 of the Republican National Convention (RNC) at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, US, July 15, 2024. Photo: REUTERS/Mike Segar.

And Douglas Altabef, Chairman of the Board of Im Tirtzu and a Director of the Israel Independence Fund, writes that “it is too soon to be too distraught about the hostage deal.

“Again,” says Altabef, “I would urge us all not to jump to a definitive conclusion quite yet. Hopefully, as happened in November 2023, we will look back and say, yes there was disruption, yes, our job got more difficult and complicated, but we were able to secure the release of (most, all, many??) hostages, and then got back to the required task of dismantling Hamas.

“We need to remember,” Altabef continues, “that Trump has appointed very pro-Israel people to key leadership roles in his government. The Secretaries of State and Defense, Marco Rubio and Pete Hegseth (who is likely to be approved despite initial concerns), are both firmly in Israel’s corner, and are knowledgeable about the situation in this neighborhood.

“I believe that Trump himself is very much with us and will regard supporting Israel as part of a key strategic construct needed to face down China, Russia and Iran.

“He now is starting off his tenure with the geo-political wind at his back, and he knows that Bibi and Israel helped him to get exactly where he wanted to be. Getting Trump to have a latter-day version of the 1980 Iranian hostage release, as Reagan assumed office, is an enormous credibility boost for him.”

Concluding, Altabef says: “I for one would like to think that Trump knows that Israel helped him to achieve it, and that he will be returning the favor as his term unfolds.

So, friends, grit your teeth, and take a longer view. God willing, we will emerge from this intact, more unified, and ultimately, strengthened.”

To these inspiring words, can we all say a hearty Amen!

December 31, 2024

Pretty counts, and pretty girls know from the time they’re two-years-old that prettiness has power.

Brains count, and pretty girls with brains are quite thrilled when they realize––about age four or five––that they’ve been doubly blessed.

Pretty brainy Black girls who were born into the right era came of age during the Obama regime. But sometimes those pretty brainy Black girls realized that if they wanted to get noticed, they could never join the poor-me, I’m-a-victim, racist mantra of Obama’s Democrat Party.

They knew they would have to distinguish themselves in an original and unexpected way, sort of like the hooker Gypsy Rose Lee, in the Broadway musical “Gypsy,” who sang “Ya Gotta Have a Gimmick.”

Aha! Why don’t we go the conservative route? Here is just one list of strong, independent-thinking, and often courageous Black women who were authentic in their embrace of conservatism.

Also on that list is pretty, brainy Black Candace Owens, but who was 100% fake and fraudulent in her conservatism––which is not racist––but who cleverly used that political identity to insinuate her way into widespread recognition.

WHEN BEING A PHONY WORKS

From the start of her Oscar-worthy performance as an authentic conservative, Candace wanted you to know that she was nothing like those historically racist Democrats who created the Ku Klux Klan and created the Jim Crow laws which mandated racial segregation in all public facilities and were embraced by President Woodrow Wilson, Alabama Governor George Wallace (“segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever”) and West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd, et al – all Democrats! The Party that also voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the Civil Rights Acts of 1968, and the Equal Opportunity Act of 1972.

Ms. Smarty Pants Candace wanted you to know how loathsome she considered racism and that she was acutely aware of and in contempt of the facts that:

• In the 1980s, Democrat Senator Joe Biden supported the election of Robert Byrd (D-WVA), a former Exalted Cyclops and Kleagle of the Ku Klux Klan who also recruited 150 of his friends to start a new KKK chapter, as well as using the N-word on live television in 2001. When Sen. Byrd died, Sen. Biden delivered an impassioned eulogy about his treasured friend.
• In the 1970s, a Democrat Congress named the Old Senate Office Building in honor of Richard Russell, a staunch segregationist from Georgia.
• And going back, in the late 1930s, Democrat President Franklin Roosevelt nominated Hugo Black, also a former Klansman, to the U.S. Supreme Court, where he served for decades.
• Even further back, it was Democrats who fought ferociously against President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, which freed 3.5 million Black slaves.

Ms. Candace wanted to emphasize that she, Ms. Conservative, was totally unlike those vicious racist Democrats, those “tolerant” liberals.

THE TRIGGER FACTOR

Then came October 7, 2023, when the career terrorists from Hamas violently raped, tortured, and gleefully slaughtered 1,200 Israeli civilians, took hundreds of hostages, and then filmed their savagery in order for the world to see their maniacal, murderous mentality.

Apparently, this bloodthirsty act animated Candace Owens, mobilized something within her that she had successfully concealed from the people who put her on the map––most prominently Orthodox Jews Dennis Prager and Ben Shapiro––and unleashed her colossally virulent, indeed malignant, hatred of both Jews and Israel. Just go to any search engine and put in Candace Owens – antisemitism to see the geyser of invective and lies she has vomited out since October 7, 2023.

Since then, she has been a leader in the pack of anti-Semites which recently garnered her the top award––among stiff competition––from StopAntisemitism.org as Anti-Semite of the Year for her non-stop blood libels, manufactured narratives, vicious lies, and fanatical obsession with, yep, both Jews and Israel…even going so far on her YouTube channel to defend Hitler and question historical facts about the Holocaust.

THE HATE FACTOR

In the history of the world, there has never been a baby born with hate in his or her heart. Hate is taught. Hate is learned, usually at a very early age, from people who have great influence in shaping the thoughts and feelings of the recipients of their hate.

Did Candace learn her volcanic hatred of Jews from her parents. teachers, coaches, counselors, religious gurus, TV, radio, Democrats?

Or is Candace yet another “I’m a victim” Black person who is angry that Democrats destroyed the Black family, and that Democrats destroyed Black education, but like them suffers from terminal envy at the success of the Jews, who only comprise a miniscule 0.2 percent in America––or about six-million Jews, out of a population of over 330 million––while Blacks comprise a significantly greater number at 14 percent?

THE HUMAN PSYCHE

The human race is driven by emotion. It’s nice to fantasize that we’re driven by empiricism, facts, objective truths. But both history and everyday life contradict that fantasy. Emotion rules the day.

The most powerful human emotion is fear. We all know that it was fear that literally shut down the entire world because of the Covid-19 so-called pandemic.

The second most powerful emotion is jealousy. Most crimes––including murder––are committed in the name of this raging sentiment, and lesser crimes and everyday hostility are also caused by the monster of green-eyed envy.

On the surface, it seems obvious that Candace and her ilk are experiencing blind jealousy. “How come,” they seem to be asking themselves, “that with all my intelligence, talent, charm, connections, good looks and money, it’s the Jews who run Hollywood and the music business and Wall St. and the media…and me???”

After jealousy, the third and hugely powerful emotion is anger, an easy emotion to access, whether it involves dealing with an irritating relative, witnessing a boyfriend who hurt your daughter’s feelings, hitting a pothole that breaks your axle, even trying to reach your doctor by pushing 2, then 4, then 7, then more horrible music.

THE LAST LAYER OF THE EMOTIONAL ONION

Underneath the paralyzing layer of fear, below the obsessive nature of jealousy, under the blind rage and anger, there is the devastating emotion of despair. Of feeling that it’s all too much, too impossible, too overwhelming. This is the stuff of clinical depression. This is the stuff of suicide.

After all, fear and jealousy and anger are mobilizing! What can I do? Which protest group can I join? Who can I wreak my revenge on?

But despair has no allies. It is lonely. It is scary. It is immobilizing.

It is also what the legion of anti-Semites are most afraid of, with good reason, as suicides among Blacks have recently escalated dramatically.

Is this what Candace Owens’ fanatical obsession with Jews and Israel is all about? Does this explain her fulminating vomitus of rage?  Is she fleeing from despair, or is she exulting in being the Black version of David Duke?

Bottom line, it doesn’t matter. Like all soapbox fanatics, her influence will wane, and she will join the pantheon of other racists who are remembered solely for their rank repulsive racist hatred.

At this point, Candace fits neatly into my Vessel Theory of human behavior, which is simply that no matter how fancy or decorative a [human] vessel appears to be, the real measure of its value is its contents. A beautiful crystal vase, for instance, might contain urine; a ceramic creation, sludge, while a plain vessel might pour out pure spring water.

Lesson: what’s inside is the real thing!

THE SOLUTION

The absolute cure for Black rage, jealousy, anger, and despair lies in one simple word: Emulate!

Spend one month of your entire life living with an observant Jewish family, reading the Bible, learning of the extreme emphasis Jews place on family unity, education, philanthropy, and mitzvahs––good deeds that can range from a simple smile to building a cancer research center to rushing all over the world to help in disaster areas.

Study why Jews, because of vicious discrimination, were forced literally to create Hollywood, why they were forced to build some of the best medical and research centers in America because they were barred from internships and residencies; the list of survival strategies is long and impressive.

Stop your jealousy. Stop your rage. Start joining us Jews in fighting the real enemy, the actual powerful forces that have kept you down, defeated, and depressed: Liberals, Leftists, and Progressive Democrats and a horrific public-education system.

Or, alternatively, stay in your perpetual rageful victim mode and see how far you’ve progressed in the next five or 10 or 1,000 years!

December 20, 2024

How did President-elect Trump become a billionaire?

How did Donald J. Trump, billionaire businessman, bestselling author, mega-successful TV star, become President of the United States in 2016?

How did President-elect Trump defy, confront, and prevail over a malevolent Deep State cabal, an American government steeped in collusion, a craven leftwing media, and a mountain of lawfare attacks to win––overwhelmingly––his second bid for POTUS?

I always called him the smartest guy in the room. And I suspect that most people would answer those questions––either proudly or grudgingly––by agreeing that his intelligence and also his drive, instincts, charisma, and sheer bravado are the magic ingredients of his blazing success.

BUT…UH OH!

So, why are some sophisticated, knowledgeable and longtime devoted Trump supporters, including seasoned conservative journalists, now suspecting that Mr. Trump is either:

• A closet Democrat.
• Controlled Opposition, essentially playing on the same team as his globalist opponents.
• A guy who values loyalty to a fault… overlooking clear conflicts-of-interest and potential moles and saboteurs in his midst.

Why these questions? Because of the great number of people he has appointed to high positions in his upcoming administration who have longtime leftist connections, have themselves played for the other team, and have eye-raising suspicions about their backgrounds or associations.

Journalist Kelleigh Nelson, a rock-ribbed conservative, questions most of President-Elect Trump’s appointee choices, starting with Susie Wiles as Chief of Staff.

Wiles, Nelson says, funded Trump antagonists Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush and John McCain; was co-chair at Mercury LLC, a global leader that promotes the Deep State narrative; has spoken openly about being in favor of open borders, and was a source of information for Jack Smith’s special counsel investigation of Donald Trump’s role in the January 6th “insurrection” and his alleged mishandling of government records.

In a follow-up article, Nelson documents highly incriminating information about Pres. Trump’s co-appointee for DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) Vivek Ramaswamy, who went to Yale Law School on a Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship, as well as Marco Rubio for Secretary of State, Doug Burgum (Governor of North Dakota) for Interior Secretary, Kristi Noem (Governor of South Dakota) for Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence, and Congressman Michael Waltz for National Security Adviser, among others.

And yet in a third article, Nelson clearly objects to the nomination of Pam Bondi for Attorney General, and Scott Bessent for Treasury Secretary… a guy who was a partner at Soros Fund Management for decades, as well as Dr. Janette Nesheiwat for Surgeon General, a woman involved in a massive Medicare scandal, who described the COVID vaccine as a “gift from God” and who also served on the World Economic Forum’s Global Advisory Council.

In addition, Nelson questions the appointment of Dr. Mehmet Oz, who holds dual citizenship in Turkey and the United States, to be the administrator for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Nelson calls him a “Big Pharma shill” and adds: “Many of Trump’s choices are questionable, but Dr. Oz takes the cake.”

Clearly, writer Janet Levy agrees, adding her own shocking laundry list of objections to the Oz appointment, including conflicts of interest and this damning quote from the American Medical Association’s Journal of Ethics, which called Dr. Oz “a dangerous rogue unfit for the office of America’s doctor.”

Then there is journalist Yudi Sherman, who practically eviscerates the President-elect’s choice for Surgeon General, emergency room physician Dr. Janette Nesheiwat.

And that is not to omit journalist Cherie Zaslawsky who asks: Who will vet the vetters?

“Ultimately,” Zaslawsky writes, “it may hardly matter whether the spate of questionable appointments President-elect Trump has recently announced is due to Wiles and/or other members of Trump’s retinue attempting to undermine the MAGA agenda or is largely the result of putting a number of well-meaning novices in the position of suggesting candidates they are ill-equipped to properly vet. Yet some choices reek of intentional trickery.”

WHEELING & DEALING

It is probably true that businessman Trump’s decades in dealing with the cut-throat unions in New York City and all the Dons who run the Mafia in New York and throughout the country did not prepare him for the malevolent treachery of the liberal Democrats in Washington, D.C., but he does strike me as a “lessons-learned” kind of guy.

Meanwhile, the President-elect, with his signature ebullience, has de facto begun his tenure, jet-setting to Paris to meet with President Macron to visit the refurbished Notre Dame Cathedral and also to receive a floridly flirtatious look from First Lady Jill Biden…I bet she voted for him!

And there he is again, speaking on the phone to Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, about the border; hosting the feckless Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, at Mar-a-Lago; threatening the mass-murdering terrorists from Hamas to free the hostages before he is sworn in or there will be “Hell to Pay” and describing the tariffs and border wall and end-of-war actions he’ll be taking in about 36 days.

That includes not only the raging wars in Israel and Ukraine, but also Yemen, Darfur, and Myanmar, all of which did not exist four years ago when he was president!

IMAGINATION TIME

Can’t you just picture the conversation he had with Joe Biden on his visit to the White House a few weeks ago.

DJT: Joe, you’ve been talking about a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas/Hezbollah for about a year, but no luck there.

JRB: Well, what are you gonna do…. you’re dealing with Arabs. You’re dealing with Jews.

DJT: Listen, Joe, I can talk to Bibi. We get along. I can get that ceasefire, and you’ll get all the credit. How does that sound?

JRB: Sounds great! Ya think it will work?

DJT: It’ll work. And it will give me leverage with Putin when I tell him to stop that crazy war…I’ll give him a slice of Ukraine and he’ll be happy.

Well, whadaya know? A day later, or was it two or three? Poof!…a ceasefire is announced in the Middle East!

STILL THE SMARTEST GUY IN THE ROOM

My take is that President-elect Trump has attracted all these potential saboteurs––many of them lifelong Democrats like the formidable RFK Jr.––to his side, his thinking, his vision, his mission, his goal, which is simply to Make America Great Again!

Not one of these appointees has forgotten Mr. Trump’s most prominent and visible role before he became POTUS in 2016, which was as the star of the wildly successful, long-running TV show, “The Apprentice,” or his world-famous pronouncement: YOU’RE FIRED!

His appointees are well aware of that non-negotiable dictate and know to follow his vision or receive that order, while millions of leftists worldwide are now on anti-depressants, anti-anxiety medication, in long-term therapy, or on suicide watch.

As they say, all good.

March 1, 2022

For thousands of years, going back to the Bible, women have wept and grieved and pleaded to God over their miscarriages. Indeed, it took all these millennia for modern-day pharmaceutical companies to develop solutions to this ongoing nightmare.

In the 1940s, they were happy to offer doctors the ability to prescribe diethylstilbestrol (DES) to prevent miscarriage. “You can tell them you would give it to your wife,” the marketing mavens from Big Pharma suggested to physicians.

And with good reason. This “miracle drug” worked! Women who had experienced no trouble conceiving but were plagued by constant miscarriages were now able to carry their babies to term and deliver quite “perfect” bundles of joy!

But then disaster hit with unspeakable horror. After one or two years of watching their beautiful babies smile and roll over and teethe and then walk and speak and thrive, the little girls began developing hideous vaginal cancers, and those who survived to adulthood experienced higher-than-normal premature births, miscarriages, and ectopic pregnancies.

The little boys, too, had horrible anomalies in their urogenital tracts and are still being watched for higher-than-average cases of testicular and prostate cancers.

In 1971, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) took DES off the market.

So much for the science!

SECOND TIME’S A CHARM

In 1957, another miracle medication, originally marketed as a sleeping pill but also found to prevent miscarriages,was developed in West Germany, and soon found its way to America, where women eagerly took the drug––approved by the FDA––and, again, were thrilled to carry their babies to term.

But unlike DES, where the monstrous effects took months to years to develop, the grotesque and tragic effects of the new drug––Thalidomide––were obvious from the moment of birth: children born with missing arms and legs, eye and urinary tract anomalies, heart problems, et al. The list of horrors went on and on.

So much for the science!

FEMINIST PROGRESS

In 1960, the FDA approved the medication developed by Dr. John Rock, a Harvard professor and obstetrician-gynecologist with five children––along with Drs. Gregory Pincus, C.M. Phang, and Selzo Garcia––that was perhaps the most world-changing medication in history––the Pill (aka the birth-control pill), where for the first time ever women could control reproduction.

But some women––either through negligence or forgetfulness––still got pregnant while on The Pill, and so it was not long before scientists developed intrauterine devices (IUDs) that could be implanted in the cervix and provide absolute sexual freedom with no anxiety about forgetting to take a pillor getting pregnant.

Among the most highly touted IUDs was the FDA-approved Copper 7. But because of the horrific incidences of sterility, pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancies and perforations of the uterus, the much-vaunted Copper 7 was taken off the market in January of 1986.

So much for the science!

PLEASE, DOCTOR, STOP THOSE HOT FLASHES!

As the ‘60s progressed, newly empowered women did not politely request but quite assertively demanded help for the tortures they experienced during menopause, when estrogen slowly diminishes in the female body, resulting in hot flashes, mood swings, loss of interest in sex, depression, et al.

Pharmaceutical companies were more than happy to accommodate and promptly offered estrogen-rich Hormone Replacement Therapy, although even the National Institutes of Health acknowledges the controversial history of HRT.

It took decades, but sure enough––after almost 40 years––a Wall St. Journal article reported on the frighteningly high correlation between HRT and breast cancer. Within days, in 2002, one of the most popular medications in the world––Premarin––was taken off the market.

So much for the science!

NOT JUST A WOMAN THING

Indeed, dozens of FDA-approved medications––for both women and men––have been widely prescribed but ultimately taken off the market. They include the antihistamine Seldane, the anti-inflammatory Vioxx, the anti-heartburn/acid reflux Zantac, et al.

In fact. dozens of drugs have been pulled from the market because of their horrific if not catastrophic side effects, including cancers, strokes, heart attacks, and death! Here is a partial list.

So much for the science!

WHAT WE HAVEN’T BEEN TOLD

Well, whaddaya know? Only three months into 2020, just when science and medicine were at the apogee of their evolution, when practically every body part––retina, heart, lung, knee, hip, skin, fingers, et al.––can be replaced, when the fastest-growing segment of our population is between 90 and 100, and when there are more individuals over 100 in America than ever before, along comes a virus from China that in a matter of weeks shuts down the world!

But not to worry! We in America have “experts” to rely on, to guide us, to reassure us that it would only take. a matter of weeks to “flatten the curve” on the frightening escalation of what,in no time, the same experts labeled a genuine pandemic.

As it turned out, every one of their models and projections and pronouncements and reassurances were wrong!

What they didn’t tell us about were the ineffectual-but-fanatically-enforced mask mandates and the non-FDA-approved “vaccines” that all “the experts” insisted every member of society––including infants––must be injected with, as well as the second vaccine, the booster, and the third and even fourth boosters––all of which did not flatten the curve or keep fully-vaccinated and boostered people out of the hospital with Covid!

What they also failed to tell us, as journalist and author Devvy Kidd reports, is that the FDA’s PCR test to determine the presence of Covid is not a diagnostic test and not reliable, as the CDC now admits.

It turned out that the Mt. Everest of information the “experts” withheld from the public, aided and abetted by their lapdogs in the media, were startling facts about the vaccines themselves––all scrupulously documented by writer Kelleigh Nelson––including the prediction that “because of the jabs, the immune system is dying. The result will be high incidences in various countries of tuberculosis where it is now dormant. Tumor cells are no longer under control causing increased numbers of cancers––as evidenced by pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole of Idaho––as well as viruses, herpes, Epstein-Barr, cytomegalovirus (CMV) which kills babies in the womb, toxoplasmosis, and a horrifying number of other illnesses.”

And is it true, as asserted by Sen. Scott Jensen (R-MN), who is a medical doctor, that hospitals get $13,000 per patient if they write that the diagnosis is Covid-19 on the patient’s chart, and $35,000 for each patient if they are on a ventilator? According to FactCheck.org, “The figures cited by Jensen generally square with estimated Medicare payments for COVID-19 hospitalizations, based on average Medicare payments for patients with similar diagnoses.”

And is this simply a coincidence? “Possibly as a reward for their efforts to conceal the true origin of SARS-CoV-2,” Janet Levy details in-depth, the scientists who went along with Dr. Fauci’s ‘natural origins’ narrative “received over $50 million in NIAID funding in 2020- 2021.”

Mmmm….isn’t it always about following the money?!

Then, to insult our intelligence even further, we have dictatorial, egomaniacal martinets like Dr. Anthony Fauci telling us: “The attacks on me are attacks on science.”

So much for the science!

THAT’S NOT ALL WE HAVEN’T BEEN TOLD

As journalist Tim Brown spells out, only two massive entities own all of the media we see and hear every minute of every day. These powerful and immensely wealthy forces believe in a globalist vision in which they––the Masters of the Universe––run the world, and we––mere grains of sand on the vast beaches of life––are expected to admire, believe, comply with and be grateful for whatever they’re doling out.

These moguls, including economic and big-tech powerhouses, hire media whores––I wrote about them here––to disseminate their messages, and, as we’ve all witnessed, to censor or often destroy the lives of all those who disagree with them.

Nevertheless, TRUTH has a way of insinuating its way or erupting its way into the public’s consciousness. This is what happened when contradictory or negative data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), from the World Health Organization (WHO), and from “experts” like Dr. Fauci himself were published by courageous media outlets, and frightening information by the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) made its way to the larger public.

And what was that frightening information?

THIS IS THE VERY VERY VERY SHORT LIST

Airline and military pilots falling ill or dropping dead mid flight after being vaccinated.

Last year, 400 athletes collapsing unexpectedly with heart problems, the Covid vaccine being the greatest common denominator.

Attorney Tom Renz made worldwide headlines after disclosing explosive data from the Department of Defense DMED database at Senator Ron Johnson’s Second Opinion Hearing. DMED is the official database of the 1.4-million active-duty DoD servicemen and it showed shocking increases in medical conditions from the mRNA “vaccines” after the military demanded injections for all service members: Here are the data:

• 279% SPIKE in Miscarriages
• 487% SPIKE in Breast Cancer
• 1048% SPIKE in the Nervous System
• 155% SPIKE in Birth Defects
• 350% SPIKE in Male Infertility
• 369% SPIKE in Testicular Cancer
• 2181% SPIKE in Hypertension
• 664% SPIKE in Malignant Neoplasms
• 680% SPIKE in Multiple Sclerosis
• 551% SPIKE in Guillain-Barre Syndrome
• 468% SPIKE in Pulmonary Embolism
• 302% SPIKE in Tachycardia
• 452% SPIKE in Migraines
• 471% SPIKE in Female Infertility
• 437% SPIKE in Ovarian Dysfunction
• 269% SPIKE in Myocardial infarction
• 291% SPIKE in Bell’s palsy
• 467% SPIKE in Pulmonary Embolism

You are the science, Dr. Fauci? God help us all!

PERSONAL NOTE

I am a longtime Registered Nurse, with years of clinical experience and a lifetime of writing about science-and-medical issues; the author and co-author of 12 books (most of them about health-and-medical issues); and a longtime health-and-science writer for The New York Times (for over 20 years) as well as many other publications. There are no people on earth I respect and admire more than medical doctors and research scientists. I know the education and training they undergo before attaining their degrees and well-deserved status. But there are always bad apples in every profession, hence my contempt expressed in this article for the frauds––including in the media––and fraudulence inflicted on America during the Covid-19 pandemic.

November 19, 2024

On November 5, 2024, a gigantic red wave engulfed America, elevating everything politically red to great heights and largely obliterating everything politically blue in its path.

It’s been only a week since the presidential election, but let’s ask the following questions anyway:

WHAT DID RED GAIN?

♦ The White House — Oval Office.
♦ The U.S. Senate.
♦ The U.S. House of Representatives.
♦ The Electoral College.
♦ The popular vote.
♦ All seven swing states.
♦ State governor majority.
♦ State Legislature majority.

The stock market hit record highs.

And Pamela Geller reports:

♦ Trump and Elon Musk told Zelenskyy that the war is over, to prepare for negotiations, no additional funds or weapons will be sent to Ukraine.
♦ Hamas called for an immediate end to the war.
♦ Trump Gave Hamas until Inauguration Day to return the hostages.
♦ The Houthis surrendered just hours after Trump won the Presidency.
♦ The EU said it will buy its oil from America not Russia.
♦ Qatar told all Hamas officials in the country to leave immediately.
♦ Iran’s currency crashed.

Additionally:

The Fed cut interest rates a quarter of a point after Trump’s election victory.

China’s President Xi Jinping congratulated Donald Trump on his U.S. presidential win and urged both nations to find the “right way to get along,” as looming U.S. tariffs threatened to return, as they did years ago.

Following Trump’s victory, NYC’s mayor announced he’s ending food vouchers for illegals.

And let me not omit that even before he takes the oath on January 20, 2025, President Trump is already supporting the military that he loves and respects — a great thing, given that we just celebrated the 249th anniversary of the U.S. Marine Corps.

WHAT DID BLUE GAIN?

The blue gains were all acquired before November 5, 2024, with Democrats — speaking in one voice — saying that their goal was to defeat Donald Trump in order to “save Democracy.”

To the eternal condemnation of the teachers’ unions in our country, all of these Democrats — no doubt “educated” in America’s leftist school systems — were ignorant of the fact that we do not live in a democracy. We live in a republic. Republics are run on law and order.

Democracies, on the other hand, are run by mob rule. That is why, during the two-plus years of the thugs and criminals from Antifa and Black Lives Matter rampaging through our country, smashing windows, lighting cars on fire, destroying businesses, putting dozens of people into intensive care units, and racking up a death toll into the dozens, there was not a word of condemnation from any Democrat.

And when countless thieves, rapists, even murderers were caught and brought to police precincts, they walked! No charges, no bail, no indictments. No condemnation from any Democrat.

Why? Because the democracy they were so interested in saving was run by, yep, mob rule! In fact, it was revealed by Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit that just the other day, the mob-rule Biden-Harris regime met with Pentagon brass to discuss and plan how to override President Trump’s 47 orders.

“This smells like treason,” Hoft wrote, while citing a CNN report that stated, “The military-industrial complex is infuriated that the first president in 40 years who did not start a war while in office has returned to power.”

DECONTAMINATION

Lucky Americans! In addition to the aforementioned RED gains, every American benefits from the decontamination process that President Trump’s election brought about.

Hallelujah! We no longer have to abide the leftist drivel doled out, in all their conceit — this is the very short list — by the likes of Robert De Niro, Laurene Powell Jobs, the vile View harridans, Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, George Clooney and his wench, John Legend, the execrable Mark Ruffalo, Julia Roberts, Barbra Streisand, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Bette Midler, who said she wanted to drink Drano because Trump won.

Good luck to them all as they hopefully fulfill their promises to leave America.

Elle Purnell, editor at The Federalist, writes that “Kamala Harris is only the second-biggest loser of the night. Her media shills are nursing wounds that will take far longer to recover from.”

She revealed that a TV executive anonymously fretted that “a Trump victory means mainstream media is dead in its current form.”

And Victor Davis Hanson writes that with the exceptions of AltasIntel, Trafalgar, and Rasmussen, the pollsters are losers as well.

In other words, lots of leftist losers, including those in the highest echelons of government, who tried for eight long years to take down President Trump, including with a bullet, had utterly, spectacularly, thunderously failed.

BUT THE HATE PERSISTS

The Democrat party, as the entire world has seen and heard over the last four years, is fueled by anger and hate. Democrats’ specialty seems to be gratuitous insults, nonstop invective, sneering condescension, and the full embrace and support of purveyors of hatred. This, again, is the short list:

♦ The Iranian mullahs and their lust for nuclear weapons to wipe Israel off the map and kill every Jew in the world. This goal is in their charter.
♦ The defund-the-police anarchists.
♦ The virulently anti-Semitic “squad” of elected officials.
♦ The often-violent criminals who, leftists now fantasize, are victims. Oh, boo-hoo…their mothers didn’t breastfeed them; their fathers didn’t tuck them in.

Now, according to media reports, these sore losers are threatening to break more laws to protest the victory of the colossus they could not defeat after eight years of crashingly failed attempts.

Get ready, America, for more Democrat temper tantrums, more street demonstrations and rampant destruction (with no arrests), more attempts by both elected Democrats and RINOs to sabotage President-Elect Trump at every turn — including, as General Michael Flynn, Mr. Trump’s onetime national security adviser, predicted, another assassination attempt on the president-elect’s life.

My prediction: Since President-Elect Trump is still the smartest guy in the room, he will not only prevail over these lilliputian adversaries, but one day end up on Mount Rushmore!

November 9, 2024

It was exactly 1:38 a.m. on November 6, 2024, that Bret Baier on Fox News said that it was clear “that the next president of the United States of America would be Donald J. Trump.”

Not taking a micrometer of credit away from President Trump 47 and his epically tireless, passionate, often hilariously funny, and brave – in spite of three assassination attempts and then a fourth death threat –– countrywide, night-after-night, week-after-week, month-after-month, year-after-year campaign.

Whoever coined the word “superhuman” had a person like Trump in mind!

But I have to give the lion’s share of the credit for President Trump’s decisive, stunning, overwhelming, crushing, thunderous victory to the historically astute, paying-attention, loving-our-country American public.

When you think about it, it is really so understandable.

For the past four years, hard-working Americans resented spending their 8-10-12-14-hour days––more if they have two jobs––working their butts off, only to have their taxes and food prices and gas prices and regulations raised, and crime off the charts, and for what?

To send upward of $175 billion to the Zelenskyy grifter in Ukraine so he can buy yet another pricey villa  and another yacht?

To send not millions but billions of their hard-earned tax dollars to the murderous, Jew-hating, Israel-loathing jihadist Mullahs in Iran so they can put their, ahem, leaders up in decadently luxurious hotels in Qatar?

And since October 7, 2023, to send more than a billion dollars to the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians…you know, the cheerleaders of the serial murderers known as Hamas and Hezbollah?

IT’S NOT ONLY THE MONEY

Surprise! Surprise! American voters have both eyes and ears.

Over the past four years, they––we––witnessed in real time a president with seriously devolving cognitive abilities, as well as erratic behavior, frequent absences, and a trigger temper that finally led the Party bosses to force him to step aside.

That was when all the eyes and ears of the American public witnessed the true spectacle of VP-cum-presidential-candidate Kamala Harris.

The last time I actually physically cringed at a public personality was when Hillary Clinton spoke Ebonics in front of a Black audience. But ole Hillary had nothing on the woman I’ve been calling Kalamity for the past four years.

Kamala’s mantra: “What Can Be, Unburdened by What Has Been,” is vintage Communist dogma, as this commentator so eloquently explains.

The media, a de facto arm of the Democrat National Committee, succeeded in hiding Kalamity’s deep roots and relationships with vicious anti-American and anti-Semitic radicals, as did her personal pastor, of all people.

But as conservative commentator Ben Shapiro has said: “You can argue against Trump; you can argue for him. But nobody can credibly argue in favor of Kamala Harris.”

THE VOTE RIG EFFORT STARTED EARLY

One could quite accurately say that “the rig” started when business mogul Donald J. Trump came down the escalator in the Trump Tower in NY City on June 16, 2015, as did the fanatical obsession to remove him from the political arena…even before he crushed Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential race.

Going back to 2020, Mark Alexander, publisher of The Patriot Post, spelled out the Democrats’ vote-rigging criminal activity to defeat President Trump in devastating detail.

And this year, The GatewayPundit.com has done yeoman work in exposing the sordid and longtime pattern of Democrat voter fraud. In this revelatory piece, a Democrat operative, caught in an undercover  video, explains how the Democrats “allegedly” stole the 2020 Election in Georgia, from kicking out GOP poll watchers to a nursing home Ballot Harvesting, et al.

In the same vein, Major General Paul E. Vallely (US Army Ret.), in a jaw-dropping article, describes exactly how Democrats steal elections. “The Dems and the Chinese manipulated the voting machines in the 2020 elections in the key ‘swing states’ using Hammer and Scorecard in a cyber-attack against the voting machines. They will use it again in updated Cyber Technology to change the votes from Trump to Harris. However, we know how to throw marbles into their cyber-attack this time.

“The story of treason, sedition, and the coup d’état that ensued to cover up the Obama administration’s illegal use of THE HAMMER to spy on Donald Trump,” Vallely continues, “is a story you will not hear or see on any mainstream media outlet.”

Just as diabolical is this 17-minute video, in which Mike Benz, deputy assistant secretary for international communication under President Trump, describes an elite-backed war game––a secret Democrat plan––entitled “Military Coup to Stop Trump.”

TOO BIG TO RIG

Mr. Trump had his advantages. In a stunning reversal of decades-long backing, Ms. Kalamity failed to win the endorsements of the Teamsters Union, The Los Angeles Times and The Washington Post––all bastions of endemic leftism.

In addition, the largest Arab-American community (both Muslim and Christian) in the U.S., in Michigan, endorsed Donald Trump for President.

And surprisingly but certainly not intentionally, Mr. Trump got a huge boost from none other than Barack Obama, the guy who is said to be engineering his defeat.

Also, Mr. Trump received $100M donation from the new Dallas Mavericks owner that Kalamity-backer Mark Cuban sold his team to. I think this is called poetic justice.

And America First Legal Foundation , headed by Stephen Miller, President Trump’s senior policy adviser and speechwriter, has been unstinting in monitoring the voter fraud efforts around the country and successfully suing the criminals.

According to the prediction of Wayne Allyn Root, a conservative television and radio host, author, political activist and oddsmaker out of Las Vegas, NV, the Trump landslide was simply “Too Big to Rig.”

But he also predicted that a Trump win would mobilize the deranged Democrats to extreme measures, the most probable being “nationwide riots, anarchy, looting, burning, and attacks on American institutions. This country could burn like never before in history,” Root said.

THE SILENT MAJORITY

While the TV reporting on November 5^th tried to be fair and balanced, it was clear after the polls closed that President Trump had ignited an electorate that had genuinely suffered through four years of sky-rocketing food and gas prices, taxes, and strangulating regulations.

And to add insult to injury, more billions, even trillions of dollars of taxpayer dollars were spent not only on five wars––count ‘em––Darfur, Yemen, Myanmar, Ukraine and Israel––but also the crushing expense of upward of 11-million illegal aliens, all enjoying––thanks to the Biden-Harris government––pricey lodgings, hot meals, medical care, education for their children, iPhones and even monthly stipends that are higher than what American families and veterans receive!

Did the Biden-Harris regime not figure that Americans would be saying to themselves…. “Mmmm, five wars…if she wins, will she double that or just throw in a couple of more, to six or seven wars? Will she institute a mandatory draft like she and Joe made the Covid shot mandatory for military people, forcing 8,000 to quit …but ultimately winning a huge settlement from the Department of Defense?

In November of 1969, presidential candidate Richard Nixon coined the term “silent majority.” This referred to any large group of people who do not express their opinions publicly but object to or resent or hate what they are witnessing and experiencing and cannot wait to vote the bastards out––a rousing anthem sung by the Australian Spooky Men’s Chorale.

Here is a Trump ad from 2024’s Silent Majority..

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED

270 electoral votes is required to elect the President.

By 2 pm on November 6^th, Mr. Trump had 248 Electoral votes and Kalamity had 217. Of course, Democrats were saying it could take three days, six days, three weeks to count the votes. But then Mr. Trump went over the top!

All the TV analysts––from the left, right and center––were predicting a Trump victory and comparing it to the Grover Cleveland presidency of 1185, and then skipping a term until returning to the presidency in 1893.

But Democrats have warned that they’ve already planned widespread protests if Trump declares victory. And many have vowed that even if Trump recaptures the presidency,  his most fanatical adversaries, among them Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD),  will use every legal means to stop him from retaking the White House.

And now that Bernie Moreno (R-OH) flipped the Senate to Republican control, Raskin is plumb out of luck.

All of former President Trump’s supporters and all of President Trump’s future supporters applaud him and thank him, as the good garbageman he is, for literally taking out the trash!

October 21, 2024

No, it’s not “the economy, stupid,” in spite of the schizophrenic stock market since our remarkably resilient capitalistic economy ran head into the socialist-cum-communist Biden-Harris regime, with its $1.8-trillion deficit.

And no, it’s not domestic policy, where we have had the luxury of being on the receiving end of:

• High taxes.
• High food prices.
• High gas prices.
• Sky-high regulations.
• Alarmingly high crime rates throughout the country, particularly in states run by Democrats, where arrests are few, bail is nonexistent, and raging criminals enjoy no consequences for their assaults, rapes, murders, racist attacks, et al.
• Eleven million illegal and unvetted aliens are further draining our economy  thanks to the largesse of this regime, which is housing them in fancy hotels, providing food, healthcare, iPhones, education for their children, even monthly stipends that are higher than what American families and veterans receive.

And no, it’s not foreign policy in which:

• We’ve spent trillions of dollars supporting thugs like Zelenskyy in Ukraine but couldn’t find the funds, as ace investigative journalist Kelleigh Nelson spells out, to help the ravaged victims of the government-manipulated hurricanes Helene and Milton in several southern “red” states. Talk about a pre-election October Surprise!
• There are now five wars that didn’t exist four years ago—in Yemen, Darfur, Myanmar, Ukraine, and Israel… costing us more trillions of dollars and precious lives.
• The Biden-Harris regime is indefensibly antagonistic to our trusted and invaluable ally, Israel, as they have waffled on their support and threatened an arms embargo for that tiny Jewish state, surrounded and at war with seven menacing enemies whose charters call for its complete annihilation and death to every Jew on earth. And yet a president who threatens Israel not to destroy the Iranian nukes.

CRUNCH TIME

Clearly, the only thing Democrats have cared about for the past hundred years is winning elections at any cost, the better to inflict their strangulating socialist/communist and now Islamist style of government on the American people.

And in the past four years in particular, they’ve been maniacally obsessed with lodging phony lawsuits against President Trump in order to ensure that he is not reelected, even if the perpetual sore losers of the left have to buy the guns they say they hate in order to assassinate him.

Why? Because the business mogul and non-politician Citizen Trump won the 2016 election by exposing:

• “The Swamp’s” systemic lawlessness, corruption, and treason.
• The Democrats’ America-Last policies.
• The leftist bias of the bought-and-paid-for Media Whores.
• The Democrat racism that has kept blacks uneducated, impoverished, and imprisoned for decades on end because of the welfare system they created that promises food, housing, education, medical care, et al, to women and says they can have as many children as they desire, with only one iron-clad rule: if you get married, you lose all benefits! Hence, tragically, the decades of broken families.
• The horrific trade deals that benefited foreign nations, but not America .
• The fallacy that no Mideast peace is possible without striking a deal with the hostile-to-Israel Arabs who insist on calling themselves “Palestinians.” Really? See President Trump’s colossally successful Abraham Accords.
• The craven deals that made our country dependent on foreign oil by––POOF! ––making America completely energy independent.

As I often and regretfully state, because of space limitations, the above is the short list.

METHOD TO THEIR MADNESS

Dozens of books have spelled out in scandalous detail how Democrats have stolen elections over the past many decades by enlisting the votes of illegal aliens, absentee voters who simply don’t exist, and of course dead voters.

Among the most riveting are:

• John Fund’s Stealing Elections: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy.
• Eric Eggers’ Fraud: How the Left Plans to Steal the Next Election

Then there is Ballot Harvesting, a scheme exclusively used by Democrats to, ahem, win elections. How does it work? According to CA political commentator Stephen Frank, someone––campaign worker, minor, illegal, etc.––goes door to door to “help” people fill out ballots that strangely favor Democrats, and refuses to collect ballots from anyone they suspect of voting the “wrong” way. They even pay them to vote the “right way.”

Intimidation is common and nothing stops them from altering ballots or throwing out ballots for the undesired candidate.

According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, in 2020, 26 states allowed this fraudulence, a practice that was aggressively and successfully challenged by Tom Fitton of electionintegrity@judicialwatch.org.

Not to omit the now-defunct ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now)—a massive group of over 500,000 members which operated nationwide since 1970, registering voters and helping people sign up for government-financed programs.

ACORN was exposed for its criminal activities in 2009 by James O’Keefe, founder of The Veritas Project, resulting in multiple convictions for massive voter fraud in several states, and it closed its doors in 2010, although it is believed that splinter groups formed and are active to this day.

Writer Barbara Kralis maintains that “America’s election mail-in ballot scam has been a huge problem the last four national elections. Democrats and organized union officials keep ‘miraculously’ finding lost mail-in ballot boxes (fake ballots) on the days following each of the last four elections,” leading to highly suspect Democrat victories. And Dinesh D’Souza’s film, “2000 Mules,”  shows in real time how the massive fraud of the 2020 election was executed. Jaw-dropping!

LET ME COUNT THE WAYS

Just the other day, Kamala Harris’s Department of Justice––in a can’t-make-it-up act––sued the state of Virginia  for removing illegals from its voter rolls!

The last time I kept track of such desperate––and illegal––measures was just a few years ago, and here is just a tiny sampling of the vote-rigging methods used exclusively by Democrats that I discovered:

• In a FL primary, more than 35,000 mail-in ballots were rejected, and over 100,000 ballots were rejected in CA.
• GA authorities reveal 1,000 people double-voted in primary using absentee ballots.
• More than 534,000 mail ballots were rejected during primaries across 23 states— nearly a quarter in key battlegrounds for the fall (Townhall).
• In NC, voters reported receiving two ballots in the mail.
• A top PA lawmaker called on the state to immediately expunge the names of 11,198 non-citizens whom the state confirmed are registered to vote despite not being eligible.
• FBI Found Discarded Military Mail-in Ballots Cast for Trump (see below picture).

• Election Watchdog Finds 350,000 Dead Registrants on Voter Rolls in 42 States.
• GA Investigating 1,000 Cases of Voter Fraud.
• The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) of IN found the following: there may be as many as 350,000 dead people still registered to vote in U.S. elections; NY, TX, MI, FL, and CA accounted for 51 percent of the dead registrants; 40,000 likely duplicate voters may have voted twice; many state registrars have been forbidden to cull their voter rolls by the courts because hysterical Democrats claim some voters might be disenfranchised; NV’s largest county sent out more than 200,000 mail-in primary ballots to the wrong addresses, while 84,000 mail-in presidential primary ballots cast in NY City were disqualified.
• Again, CA political commentator Stephen Frank reports: Trump IS Right: Post Office Is Discarding, Hiding Absentee Ballots! (Well, whaddaya know––Joe Biden just received the endorsement of the National Postal Mail Handlers Union!).

You get the picture.

PARTNERS IN CRIME

Linda Goudsmit, author of The Book of Humanitarian Hoaxes: Killing America with ‘Kindness‘ and the just-released Space Is No Longer the Final Frontier-Reality Is, sees the upcoming election as another “sinister leftist, Islamist, globalist attack on America.”

“We are only weeks away from the 2024 election,” she said, and “the enemies of America are desperate and behaving like cornered animals poised for attack. Their survival is at stake because if POTUS 45 is reelected, he will take down the Deep State and expose them all. They know it and Trump knows it.”

Goudsmit’s point is really the crux of the Democrats’ desperation these past four years. With a Trump victory, you can be sure that over the next few months, the powers-that-be will be handing out dozens of indictments to the many criminals from Barack Obama’s Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Justice, Central Intelligence Agency, Homeland Security, State Department, and every other department of our government, including the Military, in which Obama implanted his hate-America agents to commit either sedition or treason in the name of actualizing a genuine coup d’état against both a sitting president and America the Beautiful itself

With now three assassination attempts, I only hope that President Trump has a dozen  private armed guards and a food taster!

“Don’t threaten us with cutting off your aid. It will not work. I am not a Jew with trembling knees. I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid.”

Those words were spoken by Menachem Begin in June of 1982, directly to the Democrat senator from Delaware, Joe Biden, who had confronted the Israeli Prime Minister during his Senate Foreign Relations Committee testimony by threatening to cut off aid to Israel.

That’s right, only 32 years after the establishment of the tiny Jewish state, which was surrounded by 22 warmongering, Israel-loathing Arab states, and only 35 years after the Holocaust savagely murdered––tortured and gassed-to-death––six-million Jewish men, women, children, and infants, Senator Biden was once again terrorizing the Jews of the world with his menacing ultimatum.

Not a fluke, not a misstatement, not an error in judgement, but vintage Joe Biden, whose longtime antagonism and belligerence toward Israel has been exhaustively documented by, among others, Shmuel Klatzkin (Biden’s Hostility to Israel––read the whole article) and Janet Levy in AmericanThinker.com (Is a Vote for Joe Biden in the Interest of American Jews?).

EXAMPLES ABOUND

Levy reports a number of the Obama-Biden regime’s consistent anti-Israel policies:

• They interfered with the 2015 Israeli elections with the goal of defeating the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
• Their State Department granted $350,000 to OneVoice, a radical anti-Israel organization that supports the terrorist group Hamas.
• They fully supported the boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) movement to destroy Israel economically.
• In 2016, Biden pressured Ukraine, an abstainer, to vote for UN Security Council measure 2334, which claimed that ancient and historic Jewish sites were “illegally occupied.”
• They approved the same UN measure, which condemned Israelis building settlements––emboldening the Palestinian Authority to call for the ethnic cleansing of Jews from Judea, Samaria, and the Jewish Quarter, reversing decades of U.S. vetoes against such moves.

Today, President Biden heartily endorses the Iran nuclear deal—which President Trump canceled––and has let Israel know that he adamantly opposes Israel attacking Iran’s nuclear sites. That is the same Iran whose stated mission for decades is to eradicate “The Big Satan” (America) and to exterminate from the face of the earth “The Little Satan” (Israel).

And we all know how thunderously silent Mr. Biden was back when his violently racist fellow Democrats––Reps. Ihlan Omar (MN), Rashida Tlaib (MI), Ayanna Pressley (MA), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY)—and a long list of simpatico Jew-hating, Israel-loathing activists––spewed their undisguised anti-Semitic bile for all the world to hear.

“Biden said he could never be silent on anti-Semitism,” Levy writes, “but raised no objections, as vice-president, to more than 60 White House visits by Al Sharpton, who [had] incited anti-Jewish riots in New York City in the 1990s.

LESSONS OF HISTORY

I was a very little girl––younger than six––when I first asked my parents why they were running frantically to meeting after meeting every evening, opening their checkbooks, delivering impassioned speeches, wringing their hands, and shedding copious tears.

They told me what few American-Jewish parents ever told their children, so numb were they from disbelief and so eager to protect them from the ghastly truth, which was that adults and children just like them, just like us––six million of them––had been savagely murdered by Adolph Hitler and his “willing executioners” in Germany, Poland, all over Eastern Europe, and even in “civilized” countries like France, simply because they were Jewish.

Jews who managed to flee Europe and come to America before the Holocaust––like my own and my late husband Steve’s grandparents––and those who survived the killing camps and landed on our shores by sheer good fortune, thought they died and went to heaven on earth. For the first time in their lives––in fact, in Jewish history––they were free to breathe, to create, to pursue their dreams, to worship, and to raise their children without fear.

Yes, there were quotas in colleges and graduate schools, Holocaust denial, and today an upsurge in Jew hatred, but nothing stopped Jews from succeeding and excelling and contributing disproportionately to American society and to the world, just as the Jews in the state of Israel––only 76 years old––do today.

THE LEGACY OF PERSECUTION

But over 3,500 years of persecution exacts a heavy price. To understand, just think about the long-lasting toll the following events take:

• A one-minute gunshot,
• A two-hour bout of chemotherapy,
• A three-week recovery from open-heart surgery,
• A four-month lay-off,
• An almost three-year pandemic lockdown
• A five-year recession.

All of the above are life-changing, diminishing, often devastating, sometimes annihilating.

Yet Jews continued on, their survival instinct stronger than the most crushing circumstances of their long and besieged history of being haunted, hunted, and often destroyed in, among other cataclysmic events:

• The Crusades.
• The Inquisition.
• The expulsion from Spain.
• The Holocaust.
• And always, the diaspora.
• And now, October 7, 2023.

After the Holocaust, American Jews who followed politics––most did and still do today––were forced to ask themselves, and taught their children to ask: Is it good for the Jews? Meaning, will this or that candidate or statement or policy or law lead to another Holocaust?

After all, the Jews of Europe in the 1930s and ‘40s enjoyed tremendous success––in business, academia, the arts and sciences, society in general. Unlike the United States today, every college and university did not feature violent anti-Jewish protests or professors who taught anti-Jewish propaganda. Until the rise of Hitler, there were no elected officials––as there are in the U.S. today––spewing Jew hatred, not only with no disapproval from the powers-that-be, but with total impunity.

Now, American Jews have to ask themselves: Is the presidential candidacy of Biden’s choice for VP, Kamala Harris, good for the Jews?

Writer Kenin M. Spivak, among dozens who affirm his thinking, cites numerous damning reasons why Harris is a terrible––and dangerous—choice, among them that she “has remained largely silent about the outbreak of anti-Semitism. She selected far-left advisors who oppose Israel’s Gaza operations, and she boycotted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to Congress.”

Not to omit that she was “open to” an arms embargo against Israel and, as Robert Spencer, a middle east expert, predicts: “If Kamala is elected president, the American gravy train to Tehran will likely continue running, enabling the mullahs to continue their jihad against Israel…”

But nothing covers the true horrors of a Harris presidency more comprehensively than this opus, whose author wishes to remain anonymous.

“Biden-Harris-Walz are and will be a disaster for Israel and for American Jews,” he writes. “As a lifelong Democrat it hurts me even more to admit that, this time around, given the prominence of the currently major issue for me, I believe I have to vote for the Orange Man.”

In short, a vote for Kalamity Harris and the truly regressive, Obama-clone platform she’s running on––including high taxes, a weakened military, an anti-fracking return-to-energy-dependence, open borders, confiscation of your guns, and a viciously contentious relationship with Israel––would be terrible for America and disastrous for the Jewish state.

If you’re a liberal American Jew determined to pull the lever or mail a write-in ballot for Kamala Harris—don’t!

Don’t be a Jew with trembling knees. Your very survival and that of your family are at stake!

August 21, 2024

When my twin brother and I were children, we had a magical machine called a Victrola. We were able to put 33 and 45 and 78 records––I never learned what those numbers stood for––on the turntable and place the handle with the needle on each record to listen to the music we loved.

But every now and then, the needle, if not perfectly placed, would scratch the record, and that would result in the music being unable to go forward. I remember it once got stuck on Oh What a Beautiful Morning from the musical “Oklahoma,” and all we heard on an endless loop was morning, morning, morning, morning….

Now what in the world does this ancient factoid have to do with anything relevant to the present?

ENTER MS. PECULIAR

In fact, this is what the entire world has been witnessing in the peculiar affect––behavior––of Kamala Harris when she delivers a word that acts in her brain like the scratched record I just referred to and she is literally unable to get past that glitch.

Is this a neurological problem perhaps related to Tourette Syndrome?

Is it a psychiatric problem similar to Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder?

Is it a deep-down feeling of insecurity  about who she is and what she is capable of doing, and therefore she gets “stuck” and is unable to move forward?

How to explain the last four years––and probably decades before––of this, um, malady? Condition? Brain disorder? Peculiarity?

The Trump campaign has released a video that shows his competition in a less than stellar light. But these behaviors in the woman I have called Kalamity Harris for the past four years, are, pardon the adjective, accurate! They demonstrate the extreme oddness of the woman of Indian and Jamaican background––apparently not a drop of blackness in her heritage, although the granddaughter of a slaveowner—as she really is, speaking in public, expressing her views, being herself.

Exhibit Number One

Exhibit Number Two.

And this is not to omit the cringe-producing and always inappropriate outbursts of such cacophonous and compulsive cackling laughter that I feel I’m back at the Bronx Zoo with my grandchildren looking at a species I have never seen before.

NOTHING WRONG WITH ODD

Actually, I find odd people interesting, sometimes fascinating, often endearing, and frequently highly accomplished. In my lifetime, I have known any number of people with a bipolar diagnosis who once treated with the right medication (usually Lithium) are very high functioning, just as I have met and worked with doctors who were on the autistic spectrum, and that is not to omit knowing a hedge-fund manager and more than one editor who were “off” but brilliant in their specialties. But those people were simply living their lives and not running to become the most powerful person in the world.

However, if any of them were steeped in the ferocious race for the presidency of the United States of America, I would expect, at the very least, a lengthy and very impressive list of accomplishments.

What qualifies you, I would ask, to be the leader of the Free World, to carry the nuclear “football,” to appoint legal scholars to the Supreme Court, to recommend to the US Congress that we go to war, to issue Executive Orders that can change the very nature of our system, to become a billionaire when you were less than a millionaire when running for office?

Unfortunately, actually scarily, Ms. Kalamity flunks even the entrance exam. Yes, she has had some fancy titles along the way, but her formidable failures far outweigh her successes. And, as Vice President, she trumped even her former self in the failure department.

FACTS DON’T LIE

Here, under this incredible front-page photo and headline, the NY Post has exposed the chasm that exists between the kowtow-to-the-public statements of candidate Kamala and the true beliefs––and no doubt future policies––of the Kameleon who has said and acted quite the opposite when it comes to just about every issue of importance to the American public.

After spelling out in exhaustive detail the many issues “Kameleon” Harris has flip-flopped on or downright lied about—from immigration to fracking to border security to defunding the police to federal job guarantees to the Green New Deal to support for Israel “except when she refuses to attend the prime minister’s address to Congress….or she criticizes how Israel has responded to Hamas’ terror attacks”–- a NY Post editorial asks: “Does she stand for anything?”

“Or” the editorial continues, “is her only ambition to say and do whatever it takes to get elected, then let the left wing of the party run the nation?

And listen up business people! Here is Kalamity in 2019 promising to confiscate patents owned by individuals and companies for their products.

“Yes, we can do that,” she told the audience. “Yes, we can do that…. I have the will to do it.”

It’s pointless to cite the bizarre choice she made for Vice President––Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota who has praised a Hitler-supporting Imam as a ‘Master Teacher,’ who has visited China 30 times (including his honeymoon),  and whose residents are fleeing Minnesota in record numbers, on and on. You get the picture.

Why? Because I don’t think Kalamity––or Joe Biden, for that matter––has made any decision since 2020! With this ticket, we are getting a bird’s eye view of the radicals who are really running the show, including the roughly 100K anti-Israel protesters expected to descend on Chicago to steal the spotlight from the Harris-Walz ticket at the Democrat National Convention.

SURPRISE! SURPRISE!

I will not be surprised if, at the Democrat National Convention in Chicago, Walz is waltzed out of the picture–perhaps by an unfortunate health emergency––and Kalamity with him, all orchestrated by the real brains behind the circus we’ve been looking at for the past four years.

And that would be George Soros (and his sonny boy, Alexander), Valerie Jarrett and Susan Rice, all of it sanctioned by the creature they created, Barack Obama, and sealed with the Good Communist Seal of Approval!

August 9, 2024

There’s a good reason I wrote about the media’s prostitutes a few years ago, actually, seven years ago, with a preface that apologized to legitimate prostitutes who made an honest living.

What I reported then was based on the formidable work of ace journalist Ashley Lutz, who scrupulously documented her findings in a Business Insider report.

Lutz reported that in 1983, there were 50 media companies, but early in this century, as well as today, only six organizations are responsible for 90 percent or more of all the “news” we read, watch, and listen to! They include:

• GE (Comcast, NBC, Universal Pictures, Focus Features, et al)
• NewsCorp (Fox News, Wall St. Journal, NY Post, et al)
• Disney (ABC, ESPN, Pixar, Miramax, Marvel Studios, et al)
• Viacom (MTV, Nick Jr., BET, CMT, Paramount Pictures, et al)
• Time Warner (CNN, HBO, TIME, Warner Bros., et al)
• CBS (Showtime, Smithsonian Channel, NFL.com, Jeopardy, 60 Minutes, et al).

WHAT HAPPENED?

It used to be that, of those six gigantic corporations, only one of them was politically conservative—specifically, Rupert Murdoch’s NewsCorp. The rest were uniformly left or far-left propaganda machines.

Why? Because their bosses—Chief Executive Officers and billionaire owners—were all globalists, idealogues who fervently, passionately, megalomaniacally, and narcissistically believed and believe to this very nanosecond that it is they, these self-appointed Masters of the Universe, who should be running the world, and not the idiotic morons who continue to procreate, take up valuable space, drive gasoline-fueled cars, and waste fortunes of money on antiquated concepts like religion, the belief in two-parent families, the value of the 1st and second amendment rights of free speech and gun ownership, and so on.

And then, in 2015, Murdoch ceded a great deal of control of NewsCorp to his RINO son Lachlan and his leftist son James, who have moved their most reliable conservative media outlets significantly to the left, although not completely. Follow the money!

THIS IS HOW IT WORKS

Ms. Wide-Eyed Idealist and Mr. Upward-Mobility apply for jobs at their local or national radio or TV stations or newspapers, or maybe they “know someone” who facilitates an interview that leads to their being hired. A good example of the latter is the nice enough but remarkably untalented Chelsea Clinton, who landed an astronomically high-paying job with NBC that, mercifully for viewers, lasted about a minute.

Once hired, these wannabe journalists are thrilled to be on their way until they learn that their bosses don’t give a damn about anything they think, believe, want to convey to a hungry public. For most media employees, it soon becomes clear that they are expected—indeed, mandated—to reflect and convey the belief systems of their employers.

If they don’t do that, they are completely dispensable! One example is Alysin Camerota of CNN. When she was at Fox, she was Ms. Reliable-Fair-and-Balanced. But the very millisecond she moved to CNN, she became as rabidly partisan as any leftwing fanatic has ever been. Why? Because Ms. Alysin knew immediately that she was dispensable.

That’s how business works. Toe the line, or you’re out! The same can be said of all the self-important newscasters, anchors, and hosts whose media bosses quite literally give them their marching orders—or, more accurately, their talking orders. Not just talking orders, but word-for-word memes, which is why no matter which lefty network or cable show you turn to, they’re all using the same vocabulary, the same expressions, and the same keywords.

I first noticed this when Dick Cheney was chosen as George W. Bush’s VP candidate. Suddenly, the media talking heads discovered the word “gravitas”! We still witness this echo chamber every day.

Objectivity has never been part of the media’s agenda, only slavish obeisance to their bosses. Watch for yourself. In fact, take notes. There is a remarkable absence of originality in today’s political reportage. It’s all an echo chamber of talking points and leftist propaganda that the anchors and reporters have received beforehand and have literally been commanded to utilize at the risk of their jobs. There’s not an original word, phrase, or sentence!

And watch these [dispensable] media shills try to impress their bosses by competing in the categories of “best gotcha question,” “most [feigned] outrage,” most blank-faced faux objectivity,” and “most vilification toward President Trump,” whom these disrespectful [dispensable] employees insist on calling “Trump.”

WHY THE FEROCITY?

The question still remains: Why the fanatical, obsessive, literally crazed hatred of President Trump? The answer is quite simple: In every single case of what used to pass as politics as usual, he has single-handedly identified and challenged the following as bad for America:

• The prevailing powers-that-be and their collusion in the global agenda
• The Democrat Party,
• Treaties like NATO and others,
• The open-borders fetish,
• The global warming hoax,
• The rigged voting system,
• The irrelevance—and malevolence—of the United Nations,
• The monolith known as the American media.

How? By giving voice to what the American people have known and been angry about for decades, namely, that these institutions, events, and ideologies are corrupt, permeated with bribes and payoffs, self-serving, and, in too many cases, anti-American, anti the U.S. Constitution, anti the Judeo-Christian ethics upon which our exceptional nation was founded, and, quite openly now, virulently anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, and anti-Jew!

WHAT’S NEXT?

For eight long years, the Left has conspired against President Trump, fabricating—and this is the short list—a Russian-collusion hoax, the Stormy Daniels fiasco, the preposterous impeachment attempts, the phony January 6 “insurrection” fiction, the classified documents at Mar-A-Lago scam, and an avalanche of lawfare suits pursued by career leftist prosecutors and decided by career leftist judges.

Nothing worked!

And then it was mid-July 2024—less than four months from the election—and the left’s arch-nemesis was not only still standing but commanding massive crowds in weekly rallies around the country and demonstrating an ebullient optimism about the future of America, which is tantamount to arsenic to Democrats whose glasses are always half empty and whose sky is always falling.

What to do? It’s probably not a coincidence that a cascade of inexplicable Secret Service failures paved the way for an almost-successful assassination attempt against Donald Trump. Indeed, Cherie Zaslawsky (and many others) theorize that our own intelligence services, rather than displaying a Freudian level of incompetence guarding a man many despised, may have facilitated the attempt.

To demonstrate just how craven and dishonest our media are, here is a small sample of the headlines that followed this history-altering assassination attempt:

A word of advice. Don’t believe anything you hear, read, or listen to on the so-called mainstream media—not a word, not a phrase, not a suggestion, not a theory. Their agenda, as we’ve learned over the past eight years, is to obey the moneybags’ globalists who prefer socialism-cum-communism to the glorious freedom that the Founding Fathers of America envisioned and actualized almost 250 years ago.

Yes, the media whores will still be with us, but when you decide to turn them off, they, too, will go the way of the dinosaurs they have always been.

July 8, 2024

For generations, women whose husbands were sick have plied them with tea and honey and chicken soup (aka Jewish penicillin), bought over-the-counter bromides that promised relief, kept them away from people and people away from them, and even tried folk remedies, for instance smearing Vicks VapoRub on the bottoms of their feet (before putting socks over them) at nighttime, the better to wake up with clear nasal passages and lungs.

In other words, they did everything possible to protect their husbands from harm or hurt to help heal them.

No doubt, that was Jill Biden’s intention when she married the senator from Delaware in 1977, and raised not only the daughter they had together, but his young sons, Beau and Hunter, after the senator’s first wife and baby daughter were killed in a horrific car accident in 1972.

As the years elapsed, Senator Biden became Vice President Biden – for eight years – and the power couple Jill and Joe gained worldwide fame and huge wealth.

But before that, Jill juggled raising their three children with earning a doctoral degree in education and then teaching for years in a psychiatric hospital where her students were emotionally disturbed children and adolescents.

Surely, in both her education and clinical work, she was aware of, sensitive to, knowledgeable about – and protective of – the students whose limitations rendered them incapable of higher function. Surely, she became capable of detecting, even diagnosing, thought and speech disorders, dissociative thinking, and incoherent ramblings.

The following examples from when Joe was running for president in 2020 are sad and once again raise the very serious question that people have been asking for the past four years: What is wrong with Jill Biden?

Joe Biden says he’s a “candidate for US Senate”
A Half-Sedated Looking Joe Biden Devolves Into Incoherence on The View
Biden on Coronavirus: “We Have to Take Care of the Cure – That Will Make the Problem Worse No Matter What”

WHERE DID THAT INSIGHT GO?

Why is Jill’s understanding, empathy, and take-charge persona missing in action when it comes to protecting her clearly diminished husband, who even a casual observer can see is suffering either from dementia or Alzheimer’s disease? And that is not to omit the equally obvious symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease. If Joe and Jill Biden were sitting in the office of any neurologist in America, the doctor would immediately put the Mr. Biden on medication to alleviate his florid symptoms of both conditions.
The Bidens are practicing Catholics. Jill certainly must have taken her wedding vows seriously: “I, Jill Stevenson, take thee, Joseph Biden, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part….”

We believe the cherish thing, but what happened to the “in sickness and in health” vow? Does Jill Biden really believe that it means to “support” her clinically compromised husband in continuing the painful process of slogging it out by propping him up, by letting him read teleprompter words others have written but he can’t get through?

Does she believe her role is to plaster on a perpetual Cheshire Cat grin before a media that are collaborating with her in the “everything is great” hoax, rescuing her husband when appropriate behavior fails him, and pretending that his disjointed, confused, indeed bizarre utterances somehow, magically make sense.

Back then, every Joe Biden appearance was the Emperor’s New Clothes, with the entire Democrat establishment – including everyone at NBC, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, the NY Times, the Washington Post, et al. – going along with this pitiful charade, while ignoring or forgetting the fact that the American people they hold in such contempt have eyes and ears!

It is only since the Trump-Biden debate that the aforementioned media shills have ––in unison–-changed their tunes and are now de facto admitting what the rest of us have been witnessing for the past four years.

WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON?

In 2020, Jill Biden was 68 and she and Joe were the very wealthy owners of several lavish homes and who knows how many other sources of affluence.

By appearances, I’m guessing that Jill is also quite healthy. That is why it stretches the imagination to seriously believe that either she or her husband – who was then pushing a doddering 78 – wanted to spend the next four years of their lives glad-handing foreign potentates, fielding the conflicting and contentious demands of the American electorate, or generally weathering the ferocious slings and arrows aimed relentlessly at the highest office in the land.

For Joe Biden, this would be a lot of been-there/done-that, so what was his race for the presidency really about? Even more curious, what was in it for Jill?

I believe that Joe Biden was selected as Barack Obama’s VP because of his inherent malleability and weakness. The powers-that-be had no doubt that they could plant any idea, policy, or pet project in Joe’s ear and trust that he would echo their sentiments verbatim. This trust, of course, was based on Joe’s long history of echoing – actually stealing – the words of other people in a series of plagiarism scandals.

And he delivered – whether it was leveling poisonous threats to Israel that emanated from the Oval Office or executing two massive money laundering and bribery schemes in the Ukraine, or helping himself and Obama and their cronies to make billions off China trade deals and regulatory policies, on and on.

AHA! THE RIGHT GUY TO DEFEAT TRUMP!

Again, I suspect that the powers-that-be – among them brainiacs like David Axelrod, Valerie Jarrett, and especially George Soros, who appears, through his massive contributions, to own the Democrat Party, the Democratic National Committee, and most if not all Democrat fundraising committees – got together and decided to back Joe Biden because they knew with absolute surety they could control him once in office. In the same way, I believe, Mr. Soros and Ms. Jarrett ran the country during Mr. Obama’s regime.

And when it became clear to them – as it has to the rest of America – that this faltering man would be lucky to make it till November, they simply whispered in Jill’s ear:

• Stay in the game,
• We’ve rigged this election so it will work this time,
• We’ll take care of the judiciary, so Joe (and you) are not indicted;
• We’ll run the country just as we did for Obama,
• Just smile and fake it till you make it to November!

While Joe may have understood the imperative of him running when these offers were initially made, it’s doubtful that he understands them now, or that by next November it will matter to him at all. Jill is cheerleading the run, but again, what’s in it for her?

ENTER THE X FACTOR

All of a sudden, here comes the coronavirus from China, spreading exponentially throughout the world into a genuine pandemic. Predictably, President Trump takes control and within days:

• Assembled a world-class panel of experts, who we now know were part and parcel of the Deep State cabal against him,
• Shut down travel from China and then Europe,
• Closed our borders,
• Brought all warring factions in Congress together to enact a multi-TRILLION-dollar Save-America package,
• Promised to get America back to work, hopefully, he said, by Easter.

But instead of becoming depressed by the president’s rising popularity, all of a sudden Democrats start smiling again, as New York was deemed the epicenter of the coronavirus – according to the CDC – and Governor Andrew Cuomo stepped up to offer the Donkey Party an alternative to the pitiful, cognitively failing Joe Biden.

But “Cuomo is No Hero,” wrote John Hinderaker of Powerline.com: “The fact that New York is the epicenter of the COVID crisis in the U.S. is no coincidence. It flows from the policies of Governor Cuomo and New York Mayor Bill DeBlasio, as well as New York City’s nature as an international hub and a closely packed city.”

Hinderaker cited the work of Julie Kelly at American Greatness: “[N]either Cuomo nor New York City Mayor Bill DeBlasio deserve attaboys. A toxic combination of Big Apple hubris, devotion to open borders regardless of the imminent threat, and Trump-hating obstinacy fueled a stubborn strategy that left their citizens vulnerable for months.” And now we know, years.

Meanwhile, it all seemed to depend on the Democrat candidate’s wife, who appeared to be incapable of reading the tea leaves, deciphering the signals, or smelling the coffee. Which brings me to ask once again: What is wrong with Jill Biden?

Montana has about 1,400 Jews, Mississippi about 1,500, South Dakota 250. If I lived in any one of those beautiful states, I would not be writing this article. But I live in New York––home to about one-million, 800-thousand Jews––so the politics of being Jewish affects me and my family in a very existential––life and death––way.

It’s quite simple for me, as it should be for all Jews, given the fact that in a world of about eight-billion people, we Jews are a miniscule 16 million, only about six-million in the United States, eight-million in Israel, and another two-million around the world. That is equivalent to the proverbial drop in the ocean.

A PRESSING IMPERATIVE

If we Jews and our supporters don’t aggressively address the pandemic of anti-Semitism that is galloping around the globe and exploding here in America, rampant on college campuses, aided and abetted by a craven media that gives credibility to career hate-mongers like Louis Farrakhan and his ilk, and even contaminating the hallowed halls of the U.S. Congress––with more floridly hate-Jews/hate-Israel Democrats than ever before in history––then we know from our tragic history that annihilation could be right around the corner.

Sadly, the Democrat Party of old––of JFK, Sen. Henry “Scoop” Jackson, Senator and VP Walter Mondale, et al––has vanished, replaced by Democrats like “the squad” who spew their poisonous hatred of Jews and Israel from the House of Representatives itself. Then there are those who remain thunderously silent––including elected Democrat Jews like Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer, Jerrold Nadler, Eliot Engel, Adam Schiff, Richard Blumenthal, et al.

Don’t be fooled by the boilerplate, politically correct press releases written by their aides. Once these statements are made public, these cowards go back to cowering before the radical leftists who now call the shots in the Democrat Party, most prominently the racists who continue to vent their anti-Semitic bile to this day.

WHERE DID ALL THE ADVOCATES GO?

Shockingly, most of the Jewish organizations that once supported and defended Jews in America abandoned those roles, having caved to their biggest donors’ conversion to a new religion called “Social Justice.” These are the quislings who “reach out” to––in essence, endorse––groups like Black Lives Matter, Antifa and others that wantonly attack synagogues, Jewish businesses and ordinary Jewish citizens walking in their neighborhoods, and brazenly promote the Boycott-Divest-Sanction (BDS) movement to destroy Israel through economic strangulation.

For instance, The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), founded in 1913, aggressively and successfully fulfilled its mission to “stop the defamation of the Jewish people” until 102 years after its founding when, in 2015, Jonathan Greenblatt became the ADL’s national director and CEO. Greenblatt worked for three far-left regimes antagonistic to Israel––the Clinton Administration, the Obama fiasco, and the George Soros-funded Aspen Institute. Now, Mr. Greenblatt sounds deranged when he states that “only a small number” of the Black Lives Matter anarchy group don’t like Jews, when he knows full well––and Americans can see with their own eyes––that it is one of the most rabidly Jew- and Israel-loathing groups in the world!

According to columnist and author, the late Rabbi Aryeh Spero, the ADL under Greenblatt “has betrayed its original mission of fighting anti-Semites by forging a new partnership with one of America’s most notorious anti-Semites, Al Sharpton.”

But the ADL is only one example out of nearly a dozen that I place in the category of turncoats against the Jewish people. [More on this in a future article].

AMERICA TO THE RESCUE

I have always felt safe in America, protected by the powerful principles of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, by the always-reliable police-and-fire departments in every community where I’ve lived, and by local, state, and national leaders of both political parties who fought to preserve our extraordinary way of life through our country’s bedrock foundations of God, family, freedom and safety.

But with the advent of the well-organized, heavily financed emergence of the Jew-hating, Christian-hating, America-hating “Cancel Culture,” what can people do? Yes, they can call or write a letter or e-mail to their elected representative, for which they’ll get back a form letter written by an intern.

But a sure-fire cure for this downward plunge into the sewers of our body politic is to vote out every Democrat running for office. Not one of these America-loathing, anarchist-supporting people is worthy of representing either their constituents or America itself.

Just ask them. They will tell you that they “support” the terrorism––which they call “protests”––and also that they want to raise your taxes, cut funding to the police and military that protect you and your children, institute the socialized medicine and education that have failed in every country they’ve ever been instituted, and enact the Big Government programs that “protect” you from cradle to grave.

In next November’s crucial election, your life could be changed forever for the worse. Whether Jew or Christian, if you believe in self-preservation, be smart!

First published on July 17, 2021 (Revised)

In 1949, the trailblazing anti-racist musical “South Pacific”––created by composer Richard Rodgers and lyricist Oscar Hammerstein II––debuted on Broadway to wild critical acclaim, running for over five years in nearly 2,000 performances.

A particularly powerful and influential song from the musical, “You’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught,” carried the message that hatred does not arise spontaneously in the human species, but rather is inculcated––taught, sermonized, infused––by parents, teachers, coaches, political figures or other impassioned haters. Here are the still-relevant lyrics:

You’ve got to be taught to hate and fear,
You’ve got to be taught from year to year,
It’s got to be drummed in your dear little ear,
You’ve got to be carefully taught.

You’ve got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made,
And people whose skin is a different shade,
You’ve got to be carefully taught.

You’ve got to be taught before it’s too late,
Before you are six or seven or eight,
To hate all the people your relatives hate,
You’ve got to be carefully taught!

The show takes place on a South Pacific island during World War II, which make the lyrics relevant and understandable. This is why the world-famed composer (who was Jewish) and lyricist (whose father was Jewish) didn’t include the hatred for Jews that children have been taught for literally thousands of years.

CARRYING THE TORCH FOR THE OLDEST HATRED

When Americans see Joe Biden––or whomever is running the show for him and Kalamity––appointing a virtual Who’s Who of Jew- and Israel-haters to the highest positions in his regime, and promulgating policies specifically designed to destroy Israel, it is clear that all of these appointees, as well as Ole Joe and Kalamity themselves, were very “carefully taught.”

And when Americans see the growing number of elected anti-Semitic Democrat haters––Ihlan Omar (MN), Rashida Tlaib (MI), Ayanna Pressley (MA), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY), Cori Bush (MO), Jamaal Bowman (NY), the list gets longer every day––it is equally obvious that these DNA haters were very carefully taught and imbibed their toxic hatred with mother’s milk.

For a refresher, please see the documentation I’ve supplied of the alarmingly large number of vicious Jew haters and Israel loathers––the DNA anti-Semites––who Biden & Co. have put into the highest positions of the U.S. Government––look ‘em up!

• 2, 2021: Joe’s Jews
• April 13, 2021: More About Joe and the Jews
• May 29, 2021: The Oldest Hatred Now Fulminates and Flourishes at 1600
• March 22, 2022: Joe Biden’s Lust
• June 13, 2022: Hear O Israel – How do I hate thee?

In the interests of space limitations, I share Dan O’Donnell’s exhaustive research into Joe Biden’s Six Decades of Racism, particularly when it comes to Blacks, and the Geller Report on how Biden has repeatedly betrayed Israel for the past many decades. No doubt this is why Vernon Jones, a Black Representative and lifelong Democrat from Georgia, called Biden “a full-blooded bigot.”

Some other articles for your reading list:

The Democrats’ 2020 Platform Resurrects Obama’s Hostility to Israel and Appeasement of Iran by Carol S. Greenwald.

• Joe Biden Has a Glaring Anti-Semitism Problem by Stacey Lennox.
• Biden’s Hostility to Israel by Shmuel Klatzin.
• Obama’s Latest Autobiography Rewrites Israeli History to Make You Hate the Jewish State  by Rabbi Aryeh Spero.
• Biden Appoints Rationalizer of Palestinian Suicide Bombers to His White House Staff by Monica Showalter.
• Biden Pick For Civil Rights Chief Promoted Racism and Anti-Semitism at Harvard by Kevin Daley.

Again it is crystal clear that Biden and all his appointees and the Squalid Squad who follow the Democrat racist line were all “carefully taught!”

AN EERY ECHO

If you’ve either lived through or studied Nazi Germany in the 1930s and 1940s, it is clear that a resurgence of the same kind of Jew hatred is now rearing its head in 2021. Of course, it started thousands of years ago, but it reappeared dramatically in 2009, when the Race-Baiter-in-Chief, Barack Obama, utilized his community-organizer, rabble-rouser tactics in the Oval Office, fomenting racial divisiveness, fabricating conflicts where none existed, and using his bully pulpit––with the collaboration of the bought-and-paid-for leftwing media––to manufacture “hate” crimes that were once, quite accurately, considered indisputable criminal acts.

All of Obama’s fancy footwork depended on the gullibility of the American public and its desire to see the first Black president––okay, half-black-half lily white––succeed.

This magical thinking has been used before, for instance when the proponents of Socialism-cum-Communism ultimately realized that this tyrannical system of government failed horribly in every country it’s been practiced throughout history, but still fantasized that they can do it better.

Similarly and in spite of centuries of failures––even Hitler failed at extinguishing the Jews––the Jew haters think that they’ve finally figured out a way to rid the world of the people who make them green with envy because of their accomplishments and success and disproportionate contributions to the world.

In this century––largely as a result of global communication through the technology that puts fanatical haters in touch with each other––the Jew haters have made some disturbing inroads.

We now have a true pandemic of virulent anti-Semitism not only throughout the world but right here in America, including on most college and university campuses where massive Arab endowments have dictated anti-Semitic curricula and politics, which accounts for so many craven professors and administrators caving to the money and actually colluding with the Jew-hating students to vilify Jews and Israel.

Yes, in America, where the corrupt media turn a blind eye to the “carefully taught” racists and indefensibly ignore the innocent, often aged Jews who are attacked in the streets or have their synagogues lit on fire or are murdered in cold blood and thrown off a third-story balcony, as was 65-year-old retired doctor and mother and grandmother Sarah Halimi, in France.

But who does the degenerate media applaud?

• The “woke”-infatuated corporations,
• The paid-by-China national sports teams,
• The leftist media whores,
• Even the publishing industry…
• And the Jew-hating thugs from Black Lives Matter and Antifa––whose year-long riots have destroyed the cities of New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, on and on––all run horrifically by Democrats.

All of them carefully taught!

JOE’S RACISM

Again, because of space limitations, I will list some of the recent horrors that fall directly on the heads of Joe Biden and his racist handlers and appointees for both their promotion of Jew hatred and abject failure to condemn––and to stem––the tsunami of anti-Semitism now emblematic of his racist regime. This is a very small sample:

♦  Biden funds Palestinian terrorists.
♦  Biden to ‘prioritize’ ending Israeli demolitions of terrorists’ homes.
♦  Biden’s Nominees’ Ties to Anti-Israel Group.

• Biden’s Jewish Foreign Policy Boss, Avril Haines, Calls for Anti-Israel DNC Platform.
• Biden actually considers reopening PLO offices while their affiliate glorifies its bloody terror attacks as “acts of heroism.”
• Biden actually considers “giving up the store to the murderous mullahs.”
• Biden’s new Israel Ambassador backed Muslim Brotherhood and cursed at Israeli officials.
• Biden Rescinds US Recognition of Israeli Sovereignty, Says Golan Isn’t Part of Israel.
• Biden freezes Trump’s Abraham Fund, established to strengthen Israeli-Arab ties.
• Biden Rushing To Reenter the Genocidal Iran Nuke Deal by August.
• Biden Small Business Administration (SBA) Pick Serves on the Board of Anti-Israel Group.

I rest my case.

WHY JEWS DRIVE THE HATERS CRAZY

Jews like me who know Jewish history also know that we have been through this before and not only prevailed but flourished, just as we will through this upheaval. Yet, the fight goes on with those “carefully taught” Jew haters who spend their days and nights and social occasions and professional time––even holidays––obsessing about those damn Jews.

How could it be, they wonder, that in a world of nearly eight-billion people, these miniscule people––only 16 million! ––gain prominence in every country in which they land (even when they arrive with no money and not knowing the language), and inevitably manage to do amazing, world-changing things. For instance––again, this is the very very short list!

• Finance the American Revolution.
• Cure the scourge of polio.
• Invent the Intel computer chip.
• Develop the pacemaker.
• Found the GPS system WAZE.
• Found Google
• Deliver Insulin in a capsule.
• Enable paraplegics to walk.
• Help blind people to see.

Too many to name, too little space. Here’s another small taste: 10 Inventions by Jewish People that Changed the World and here: An Informal List of Jewish Inventions, Innovations and Radical Ideas.

These astounding contributions provide immense benefits to all those “carefully taught” Jew haters who have never figured out how to rid themselves and the world of the people who make them feel so bad about themselves, so inadequate, so un-chosen, so jealous!

HYPOCRISY ON STEROIDS

Strangely, it is liberal Jews, and there are many of them––read my article: Suicidal Jews––who vote for the Jew-hating Democrats and raise not one objection when these floridly racist politicians are thunderously silent as their colleagues spew their anti-Semitic bile and then proceed to enact policies that are viciously antagonistic to Israel, the most egregious being their fanatical mission to allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons…a state whose mullahs have declared for decades that their intention is to wipe Israel off the map and kill every last Jew in the world.

This is because the “values” leftist Jews and Democrat pols share override their interest in anti-Semitic American professors, violent Jew-hating racist groups like Black Lives Matter, or genocidal mullahs––values like saving the whales, the colossal hoax of global warming, and slaughtering infants in the womb right up to the moment of birth, ala New York Democrats, and equally if not more grotesque, infanticide after the baby has been born, ala the depraved former Democrat Governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam.

These are the people who have been bleating “my body, my choice” for decades when it comes to abortion, while today they support the Biden regime’s call for mandatory injections of the experimental, non-FDA-approved, clinically controversial and even dangerous Covid-19 vaccines that stand for the opposite: my body––not my choice!

WHAT TO DO?

If you have a thought, an opinion, a grievance, or a disagreement with this or that policy emanating from the White House, take one minute––literally 60 seconds––to call:

The White House hotline: 1-855-948-2311.

Comments: 1-202-456-1111
Switchboard: 1-202-456-1414

Or send an e-mail to: Contact Us | The White House

You can do this every day! The White House accumulates Yes and No piles and often bases policies––or should––on the will of the American people.

*****

Keeping in mind that the Democrat Party is now the official party of racism and hatred of Jews and Israel, it is imperative that in the next election you vote for whomever is running against a Democrat and whomever is running against Republicans in Name Only (RINOs).

*****

It is now clear that Jewish organizations which once strongly advocated for Jewish issues and fought anti-Semitism aggressively no longer do so unless they involve politically correct issues that won’t inspire the vindictive wrath––and financial support––of Jewish Democrats.

Writer Seth Mandel elaborates on the rot inside American-Jewish organizations, as well as the Jews who are complicit in Jew hatred.

Those organizations include, among others: the UJA-Federation; the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) whose head, Jonathan Greenblatt, is a former employee of George Soros, the Clintons, and Barack Obama; the American Jewish Committee (AJC); the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC); the Hillel chapters on college campuses and the Reform movement.

So don’t count on these organizations and don’t send them another dollar!

*****

Martin Niemöller, a German theologian and Lutheran pastor during Hitler’s reign of terror, is famous for words that resonate to this day:

“First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.”

It is not only Jews whose freedoms are threatened by the scourge of the racist regime now occupying the White House, it is every freedom-loving, non-racist American in this country––the vast majority! Never has the political action of We the People been more urgent. Time to act!

Growing up in the 1950s, I remember distinctly that all of my high school classmates were obsessed with figuring out who they really were, males or females. Every conversation, the special clubs we formed to talk about this issue, the heated arguments we had with our parents who didn’t “get” that the children they thought were boys or girls were not at all what those dinosaurs imagined sex and gender to be, and the total lack of understanding we got from the powers-that-be, including teachers, counselors, coaches, doctors. It was truly a horrible time to be a girl or boy.

All that my girlfriends talked about, starting about the age of 11 or 12, was having their budding (or in some cases, formidable) breasts cut off, and the hormones coursing through their systems somehow, magically, eliminated altogether. The same with the boys. “How can we cover up our Adam Apples,” they lamented. “How can we hide our penises and put barrettes in our hair and be the girls we were really meant to be?”

After high school, I married and became a young mother at 18. And my son told me that when he was in high school in the 1970s, the same thing took place, although more intensely. “All we talked about,” he told me, was “who was a real boy and who was a real girl, and how the tomboys could become real boys and the guys who liked cooking could become real girls.”

“But at least things had progressed,” he said, “and there were teachers and guidance counselors willing to encourage the girls who were tomboys and the boys who liked cooking to stick to the genders “they were born to be and not to allow parents to interfere.”

REALITY CHECK

Please re-read every word of the above four paragraphs and know that NOT ONE WORD of them is true! In the 1950s––and for centuries before and decades after––girls knew they were girls; boys knew they were boys and that was that.

And in the 1970s, the exact same thing. There was no such word as “transgender.” There was not one micro-syllable of a word that suggested girls with breasts and boys with penises weren’t, ahem, girls and boys!

There was not one case of a surgeon cutting off the breasts of 13-year-old and 14-year-old girls because these far-from-fully-developed females claimed they were “born into the wrong gender.” Nor were there medical doctors prescribing hormone blockers to teenage boys to stem the tide of their surging testosterone.

Same in the 1980s and the 1990s and the 2000s and the 2010s. In fact, right up until about 2015…. just eight years ago!

ARE THERE RARE EXCEPTIONS?

Christine Jorgenson

Of course. In the early 1950s, there was––at-that-time––the “strange” case of Christine Jorgenson who, after serving in the U.S. Army as George Jorgenson,  traveled to Denmark and underwent a series of operations that converted her from George to Christine, after which she enjoyed a successful career as an author, lecturer and entertainer until she died at age 62

Renée Richards

In the mid-1970s, former athlete Richard Raskind, who was recruited by the NY Yankees and attended Yale University (where he was the captain of the men’s tennis team), ultimately became a successful ophthalmologist, and an officer in the U.S. Navy. He then became Renée Richards (French for “reborn”), practiced medicine, and died at the age of 88.

More recently, there was the case of Bruce Jenner, the macho former Olympic gold medal-winning decathlete.of 1976.

The handsome hunk married three times and had six children, but came out as a transwoman in April 2015 as Caitlin Marie Jenner.

According to Rachel Scheinerman, with a Master’s Degree from Harvard Divinity School, a Ph.D. in Rabbinic Literature from Yale University, and editor of My Jewish Learning, there were no fewer than eight genders recognized in the Talmud over 3,500-hundred years ago, including:

1. Zachar, male.
2. Nekevah, female.
3. Androgynos, having both male and female characteristics.
4. Tumtum, lacking sexual characteristics.
5. Aylonit hamah, identified female at birth but later naturally developing male characteristics.
6. Aylonit adam, identified female at birth but later developing male characteristics through human intervention.
7. Saris hamah, identified male at birth but later naturally developing female characteristics.
8. Saris adam, identified male at birth and later developing female characteristics through human intervention.

But leave it to that leftist bastion, the City University of New York (CUNY) to outdo the Talmud! This vast system, which includes 25 colleges and 243,000 students, lists 15 genders to choose from on one of their forms! As they say, can’t make it up!

WHAT HAPPENED?

Did the massive quantity of estrogens women started taking with the advent of the birth-control pill in 1960 produce future generations of boys who “feel” like girls? And did it produce girls with such an overload of estrogen that they somehow developed an autoimmune disease to their own hormones and now “feel” like boys?

Where, through sweat and urine, did this huge amount of estrogens go, which multimillions of women ingested not only with The Pill but with the Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) they took to quell the unpleasant symptoms of menopause? Did all this estrogen go into the soil and plants and foods we eat or into the water we drink? And what about the tremendous amount of xenoestrogens that are found in plants and also introduced into the environment by industrial, agricultural, and chemical companies?

I think about these questions when I remember watching the first gay pride march in New York City in 1970 on TV, featuring several hundred protestors. I didn’t quite understand the march…. was their goal to be accepted or did they simply want me and millions of other Americans to know what they did in bed? Yet today, such marches feature literally hundreds of thousands. Is this numerical explosion the result of the Atlantic Ocean’s worth of estrogens their mothers and grandmothers ingested over the past almost-65 years that permeated our ecosystem and found its way into their bodies?

Notice that every expert and doctor and scientist––and even “woke” companies like Budweiser ––and many other major industries that support and even promote transgenderism––never ever cite even a micron of hard scientific research that either affirms or disproves that this burgeoning phenomenon has a scientific basis at all. Indeed, where are the studies? Where is the empirical evidence?

Spare yourself the search…. there are none!

WHAT ARE THE NUMBERS?

Today, the Williams Institute – which says it conducts independent research on sexual orientation and gender identity law and public policy––asks: What Percentage of the Population is Transgender 2023 (worldpopulationreview.com)?

They state that transgender people are part of the LGBTQ+ community and there are 1.4 million adults who identify as transgender in the United States. About 0.5% of adults 18-24 identify as transgender, and 0.3% of adults 65 and older identify as transgender.

The Pew Research Center found that five percent of young adults claim that their gender is different from their sex and that “the share of U.S. adults who are transgender is particularly high among adults younger than 25,” then adds that “in this age group, 3.1% are a trans man or a trans woman, compared with just 0.5% of those ages 25 to 29.”

And a Reuters report found that diagnoses of youth with gender dysphoria have skyrocketed in the U.S. in recent years. While there were just over 15,000 cases in 2017, the number has shot up to more than 42,000 in 2021.

Nevertheless, those numbers––even if they add up to a million-and- a-half people––amount to a drop in the ocean when compared to our country’s overall population of over 330 million.

And yet, Transgenderism has become an industry!

THE LEFT’S LATEST FETISH?

Is this transgender shtick simply the Left’s newest fetish––the biggest one being the colossal hoax of global warming, er, climate change, as explained here by Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh, here by the late John Eidson and here by Catherine Salgado. In short, today, according to over 1,540 respected experts, there is no scientific data to indicate that climate change is anything but political propaganda.

Or is the real goal of the transgender movement to separate children from their parents in order to achieve their rosy vision of a Communist America in which these same children look not to their parents but to BIG GOVERNMENT as their caretakers, protectors, providers.

As journalist and author Linda Goudsmit explains in her recent blockbuster article: “Such children raised by the state become adults who want the state to go on raising them. When they’re hungry, the state feeds them, when they’re cold, the state shelters them and when they’re unhappy, the state tells them whom to blame. When their relationships fall apart or when their feelings are hurt, they turn to the state to soothe them with a dose of revenge.”

Revenge––or at least justice––is what increasing numbers of phenomenal female athletes want, now that trans males have, in essence, destroyed women’s competitive sports.

Just recently, as reported by Pamela Geller, a trans biological male marathoner defeated 14,000 women in a race after competing as man months earlier.

And we all know the case of Riley Gaines, the 12-time All-American swimmer with five Southeastern Conference titles, who was forced to share a locker room with and compete against the biological male Lia Thomas–– who ranked #554 competing against men––at the 2022 NCAA Women’s Swimming Championship. When Gaines tied with Thomas––down to the hundredth of a second––she was told that the NCAA hadn’t planned for a tie and that Thomas had to have the trophy for photo purposes.

Gaines is fighting this travesty. “The Democrat ‘Party of Science’ doesn’t believe in biological differences.” she says. “The ‘Party of Women’ doesn’t support women. Democrats are erasing our dreams in the name of wokeness.”

Then there is Austin Killips, a biological man who was awarded first place in the women’s category in New Mexico’s Tour of the Gila cycling race.

Not to omit that before he began taking experimental hormones, Laurel Hubbard competed in men’s weightlifting for New Zealnd at the 2020 Olympics and finished dead last. Nevertheless,  Hubbard was named “sportswoman of the year” by New Zealand’s University of Otago.

No less an authority than Caitlin Jenner has recently launched the Fairness First PAC to keep men from competing in women’s sports. “Our advocacy, “Jenner said, “is to align athletes with sports that are at a chromosomal or DNA level — not birth certificate,” adding that the transgender movement “ boils down to parental rights,” and its true goal is “destroying the family unit.”

Recently, Republicans in the House have introduced a bill that would ensure that biological girls will have an equal playing field. But Joe Biden is threatening to do just the opposite – to cement into law the destruction of women’s sports.

A MENTAL DISORDER?

Writer Larry Sand calls this extreme form of gender-bending a dangerous fad, but unlike the various eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia of the 1970s, which “were treated as physical disorders and serious mental-health problems,” Sand writes. Today, “they have been replaced by gender dysphoria, which is being used as a political cudgel by many with a nefarious agenda.”

Sand quotes Dr. William Malone, a board-certified endocrinologist: “We are dealing with what may be the biggest medical and ethical scandal of modern times. Transgender medicine is big business, and youth who are transitioning today will be medical patients for life…for the next 60-plus years.”

“We know we are living in a psychotic world,” writes Jason D. Hill in FrontPage.com, “when professors are explicitly told that under no circumstances can they ever utter these words in class: Men cannot give birth to children. We know the psychosis is real when two men who look and act like linebackers, but who identify as women, claim they are in a lesbian relationship because they identify as women…”

A statue of a naked, bearded man breastfeeding a baby has been placed outside the former Women’s Museum in Denmark.

We know that the small identity alterations that trans people make are simply to change their names from Gordon to Gigi or from Jenny to Jasper. Much more extreme, according to urologist Maurice Garcia, MD, director of the Cedars-Sinai Transgender Surgery and Health Programs, males who claim to be females agree to the following:

• Adam’s apple reduction.
• Placement of breast implants (breast augmentation).
• Removal of the penis and scrotum (penectomy and orchiectomy).
• Construction of a vagina and labia (feminizing genitoplasty).

And females who claim to be males agree to:

• Breast reductionor mastectomy.
• Removal of the ovaries and uterus (oophorectomy and hysterectomy).
• Construction of a penis and scrotum (metoidioplasty, phalloplasty and scrotoplasty).

In fact, it’s gotten so depraved in the Golden State that a California School Board voted to uphold a “parental secrecy policy” that withholds the gender transition of its students from parents.

Significantly, the American College of Pediatricians has stated that there is no evidence that transgender interventions are safe for children. “There is not a single long-term study to demonstrate the safety or efficacy of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for transgender-believing youth,” the ACPeds.org stated.

“This means that youth transition is experimental, and therefore, parents cannot provide informed consent, nor can minors provide assent for these interventions. Moreover, the best long-term evidence we have among adults shows that medical intervention fails to reduce suicide.”

In fact, puberty blockers may cause depression and other emotional disturbances related to suicide, and they may cause permanent physical harm.

To compound the horror, many of the treatments children are subject to can have catastrophic side effects. For instance, Lupron, the number one prescribed puberty blocker––an experimental drug used to chemically castrate violent sex offenders––lists mood disorders, seizures, and “emotional instability” as side effects and warns prescribers to “monitor for development or worsening of psychiatric symptoms during treatment. 

And studies indicate that females who receive testosterone can develop multiple psychiatric problems such as mania, major depression, and psychosis.

In The Left’s Disposable Transgender Children, Scott Hogenson writes: “Transgenderism was classified by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) as a mental disorder until 2012. But the behavior of transgenders mirrors the APA’s definition of delusions: “an often highly personal idea or belief system…that is maintained with conviction in spite of irrationality or evidence to the contrary.

“If a man maintains with conviction that he is a woman in spite of chromosomal, anatomical, endocrinological and other evidence to the contrary, it’s not unreasonable to conclude that man is delusional. This, according to a WebMD item reviewed by Dr. Smitha Bhandari, is “a type of serious mental illness called a psychotic disorder.”

Hogenson goes on to write that Leftists exploit these young and confused people because they are “politically useful.” Instead of dissuading them from obtaining the medical treatment they need, “they instead force them deeper into mental illness by promoting the lie that they can simply alter natural law on a whim.”

According to writer Laurel Duggan, adolescents with autism are over-represented in the youth transgender population, and some medical professionals attribute this to autism spectrum traits such as obsessive thinking, vulnerability to body image issues, and a sense of social rejection and isolation.

Dr. Susan Bradley, a Canadian psychiatrist, who began working with gender dysphoric children in the 1970s, said she believed most of the children who sought gender transitions had high-functioning autism and were being exploited by the medical industry.

As just one of many such victims, Chloe Cole, a young woman who underwent cross-sex hormones and a double mastectomy between the ages of 13 and 17 and now regrets medically transitioning, said that doctors failed to meaningfully address her autism spectrum traits and the ways they had an impact on her gender identity.

“There is also unpublished evidence that after a year on [puberty blockers], children reported greater self-harm, and the girls also experienced more behavioral and emotional problems and expressed greater dissatisfaction with their body—so puberty blockers exacerbated gender dysphoria.”

THE MEDICAL PROFESSION IS COMPLICIT

So, why on earth do doctors participate in these drastic measures and why do hospitals allow it? Here is now it works. When the administration in power––in this case the Biden regime––sends out a mandate to hospitals and doctors, they must comply or be deprived of all federal funds that literally keep most medical institutions and doctors’ practices alive.

Simple as that, exactly what we witnessed with the highly dangerous Covid19 vaccines, which found pilots experiencing blood clots in mid-air, thousands of young athletes dropping dead on playing fields across the world, huge numbers of teenage boys contracting myocarditis, a mountain of miscarriages, the horrific list of casualties goes on and on. Here, Dr. Joseph Mercola describes exactly how this malevolent scheme worked and works to this day.

Writer David Strom sums it up nicely when he writes: “Insanity is being normalized.”

To prove it, here are some recent headlines:

PARENTAL FAILURE

At 12 years old, Johnny starts each school day by downing two shot glasses of Scotch. When his mother dares to question him, he says that the liquor “gives me energy and makes me feel good. You know that Mom because you and Dad drink the same thing every night!” Of course, a sane mother would punish Johnny for transgressing house rules and take him to a psychiatrist. But a mother who worships the Feelings God would “respect” Johnny’s emotions and maybe even suggest that he substitute vodka to avoid detection.

Then there is 13-year-old Keisha, who has developed a habit of lighting fires because, she said, “it gets rid of my bad feelings and makes me feel good. Besides, Mom, you clapped and cheered when you and Dad watched Antifa and Black Lives Matter light cars on fire and smash windows and you even sent them money!” Of course, a sane mother would take the young girl to a psychiatrist, but the Feelings God worshipper would “understand” and let it go, maybe buy the young girl a portable fire extinguisher.

Let’s now take the case of 14-year-old Sebastian who has taken to wearing his sister’s skirts and his mother’s make-up. “I think I’m more girl than boy,” he tells his parents and I want to become a girl.

Of course, sane parents would tell their son––or daughter––that he or she is not old enough to make such a life-changing decision, that he can’t vote, and he can’t drive, and he can’t even get a paying job, so no! Wait until you’re 18 or 21 to see how you feel, and then explore your options.

But thousands of modern parents never say this to their preteen or teenage children. They simply accede to their feelings and their demands.

Why? Because they are afraid of their children! They don’t want to alienate them or make them angry. They want to be their pals, not their parents. They want to smoke pot with them, not discipline them and be the grown-ups in their lives who set boundaries, discourage blind conformity, exert authority.

All of  these parents should be compelled to watch Lindsay Graham, a mother from Arizona, dressed as a cat, speak to her local school board. As described by Sloan Oliver, she greeted them with “meow, meow” and then asked if they believed she was a real cat. Not one person did because––ta da–– they knew she was not a cat.

And yet, displaying both weakness of character and moral cowardice, they unquestioningly believe a son who says he’s a girl and a daughter who says she’s a boy.

Few sane people could disagree with Elon Musk, who recently tweeted, “Any parent or doctor who sterilizes a child before they are a consenting adult should go to prison for life.”

FIGHTING BACK

You would think that women who call themselves feminists would be at the forefront of fighting for the young girls who are genuine victims of incompetent parents and depraved doctors, but with very very few exceptions, all we’ve heard from this retro cult is a thunderous silence.

Only word limitations require that I include a very short list of those who are fighting this abomination:

• Lawyer Harmeet Dhillon, the Founder and CEO of The Center for American Liberty, has launched a landmark case against the hospitals and doctors who coerced Chloe Cole to transition to a “boy” at the age of 13.
• Sharron Davies, a female Olympic swimmer, is leading a boycott against Nike after the brand partners with trans biological male to promote women’s sports bras.
• The World Athletics Council has banned transgender track-and-field athletes from international competition.
• 11 States Move to Ban Child Sex Changes as Surgery Demand Soars.
• More than twenty bills aimed at criminalizing child sex changes have been introduced at the beginning of the 2023 state legislative sessions, reports the Associated Press.
• Republican state lawmakers are seeking to ban so-called gender-affirming care for youth due to the complete lack of quality evidenceto support it, the invasive and irreversible nature of the interventions, and the sharply rising rates of detransition and regret.
• Eleven states––Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Virginia––have proposed legislation to protect children and adolescents from what one pediatric neurosurgeon recently called “an extraordinary medical atrocity.”
• Lawmakers in South Carolinaand Kansas seek to ban doctors from performing experimental sex changes on anyone under 21, while similar legislation in Oklahoma would ban sex changes for all youth under age 26.

April 21, 2023

According to the Atlanta-based U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s latest statistics, in 2020 one in 36 children (approximately four percent of boys and one percent of girls) was estimated to have autism spectrum disorder, estimates that are significantly higher than those in all previous years. White children are about 19 percent more likely than black children and 65 percent more likely than Hispanic children to be diagnosed with autism.

Experts offer various reasons for the general increase in this condition:

• The role that being an older parent plays not only in the incidence of autism but also Down syndrome and other developmental disabilities.
• Genes.
• “Something” in the environment.
• The increasing number of vaccines given to infants and children, which today routinely number 16.

What is consistently omitted, however, is the role that ultrasound exams during pregnancy may and probably do play not only in this seeming black/white disparity, but in the rapidly escalating incidence of the condition. More about that below.

WHAT WE KNOW TODAY

Autism is a neurological disorder that affects the normal development of the brain, causing self-defeating behaviors and an inability to form social relationships. It usually appears before the age of three. Most scientists believe that autism is strongly influenced by genetics but allow that environmental factors may also play a role.

To be diagnosed on the autistic spectrum, a child must have deficits in three areas:

1. Communication (most children can’t make eye contact; others can’t speak).
2. Social skills (typified by disinterest in both people and surroundings).
3. Typically “normal” behavior (many autistic children have tics, repetitive behavior, inappropriate affects, et al).

Those diagnosed on the autistic spectrum range from high-functioning, self-sufficient people, even geniuses, to those who need lifelong supportive help.

A LARGELY-DEBUNKED THEORY

The increased incidence of autism has been attributed by legions of parents and a number of professionals to the mercury-containing preservative thimerosol, used to prevent bacterial or fungal contamination in the vaccines babies and children routinely receive.

This is not backed up by hard science.

Thimerosol, which has been used in vaccines since the 1930s, has not been used in the U.S. since 2001 and the vaccine dosages containing the preservative that were given before then had about the same amount of mercury found in an infant’s daily supply of breast milk.

Numerous studies––by the Centers for Disease Control, the Institute of Medicine, American Academy of Pediatrics, the World Health Organization, and the National Academy of Sciences, among others––have found no autism-vaccine link, while other studies have shown an increase in autism in countries that have removed thimerosal from vaccines.

Nevertheless, aided by salivating personal-injury lawyers, parents have filed multi-thousands of lawsuits claiming that thimerosol “caused” their children’s autism. Between late 1999 and late 2002, mercury was removed from most childhood vaccines, including DPT (Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis), Hepatitis B, and Hib [Haemophilus influenza b]. The MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella), which is a live vaccine, is not compatible with thimerosal.

MY THEORY

In the early ’70s, I worked as a delivery-room nurse at a university-affiliated hospital near my home on Long Island. It was a revolutionary time in obstetrics, when the Lamaze method of “prepared childbirth” and the use of sonograms to visualize fetuses were gaining popularity.

Actually, ultrasound technology was first developed in Scotland in the mid-1950s by obstetrician Ian Donald and engineer Tom Brown to detect industrial flaws in ships. By the end of the ’50s, ultrasound was routinely used in Glasgow hospitals, but it was just into the 1970s before it was used in American hospitals to check that the developing baby, placenta, and amniotic fluid were normal and to detect abnormal conditions such as birth defects and ectopic pregnancies, et al.

At the end of the ’70s, I became a certified Lamaze teacher and spent the next 22 years giving classes in my home. In a very real way, I had my own laboratory, as I learned directly from my clients about the increasing escalation of sonogram exams they had as the decades elapsed.

In the early 1980s, it was common for only one or two out of the 10 women in my classes to have a sonogram. In just a few years, every woman in my classes had had a sonogram. And in the late ’80s and ’90s, almost every woman had not one sonogram, but often two or three or four or five – starting as early as three or four weeks gestation and extending, in some instances, right up to delivery!

It was in the ’90s, in fact, that it began to occur to me that the scary rise in the incidence of autism might be linked to the significant rise in ultrasound exams. Over the years, I’ve posited my theory to a number of people, written letters to the editors of newspapers – including the NY Times, for which I wrote for over 20 years, but they still refused to publish my letter – and e-mailed my idea to one of the top news people at the Fox News Network, but the “we report/you decide” powers-that-be on that station strangely decided not to report on this subject.

I contacted autism researchers Dr. Marcel Just and Dr. Diane L. Williams, who told me via e-mail that Dr. Pasko Rakic at Yale was, indeed, exploring the autism-ultrasound link.

Then, in 2006, I found an article in Midwifery Today, “Questions about Prenatal Ultrasound and the Alarming Increase in Autism,” by writer-researcher Caroline Rodgers.
“The steep increase in autism,” Rodgers wrote, “goes beyond the U.S.: It is a “global phenomenon”… that “has emerged…across vastly different environments and cultures.”

“What do countries and regions with climates, diets and exposure to known toxins as disparate as the U.S., Japan, Scandinavia, Australia, India and the UK have in common?” Rodgers asked.

“No common factor in the water, air, local pesticides, diet or even building materials and clothing can explain the emergence and relentless increase in this serious, life-long neurodevelopmental disorder,” she stated.

However, Rodgers added: “What all industrial countries do have in common is …the use of routine prenatal ultrasound on pregnant women. In countries with nationalized healthcare, where virtually all pregnant women are exposed to ultrasound, the autism rates are even higher than in the U.S., where due to disparities in income and health insurance, some 30 percent of pregnant women do not yet undergo ultrasound scanning.” Aha! Could this be why blacks and Hispanics in America continue to lag behind whites in the development of autism?

Even in remote, rural regions of developing countries like China, ultrasound is in common use because sex determination was so important to their one-child – preferably male – policy, which they scrapped in 2016 for a two-child policy.

The cause of autism, Rodgers continues, “has been pinned on everything from ’emotionally remote’ mothers…to vaccines, genetics, immunological disorders, environmental toxins and maternal infections. A far simpler possibility…is the pervasive use of prenatal ultrasound, which can cause potentially dangerous thermal effects.

ENTER HARD SCIENCE

In August 2006, Pasko Rakic, M.D., chair of Yale School of Medicine’s Department of Neurobiology, announced the results of a study in which pregnant mice underwent various durations of ultrasound. The brains of the offspring showed damage consistent with that found in the brains of people with autism.

The research, funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, also implicated ultrasound in neurodevelopmental problems in children, such as dyslexia, epilepsy, mental retardation and schizophrenia, and showed that damage to brain cells increased with longer exposures.

Dr. Rakic’s study, Rodgers said, “… is just one of many animal experiments and human studies conducted over the years indicating that prenatal ultrasound can be harmful to babies.”

In thedailybeast.com, Jennifer Margulis, author of Business of Baby: What Doctors Don’t Tell You, What Corporations Try to Sell You, and How to Put Your Baby Before Their Bottom Line, writes that Dr. Rakic “concluded that all nonmedical use of ultrasound on pregnant women should be avoided.”

In her research, Margulis said, she discovered that “there is mounting evidence that overexposure to sound waves – or perhaps exposure to sound waves at a critical time during fetal development – is to blame for the astronomic rise in neurological disorders among America’s children.”

PROBLEMS WITH SOUND AND HEAT

A 2009 article in Scientific American by John Slocum explains that sonar (Sound Navigation And Ranging) systems, which were first developed by the U.S. Navy to detect enemy submarines, “generate slow-rolling sound waves topping out at around 235 decibels; the world’s loudest rock bands top out at only 130. These sound waves can travel for hundreds of miles under water and can retain an intensity of 140 decibels as far as 300 miles from their source.”

This is relevant because many mass deaths and strandings of whales and dolphins have been attributed to the sonar waves emitted from Navy ships. Slocum writes that a successful 2003 lawsuit against the Navy brought by the nonprofit Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) to restrict the use of low-frequency sonar in waters rich in marine wildlife was upheld by two lower courts, but the Supreme Court “ruled that the Navy should be allowed to continue the use of some mid-frequency sonar testing for the sake of national security. ”

There are hundreds if not thousands of cases that point to the dangers of sound waves. As many as 3,000 dead dolphins were found in Peru during the summer of 2012. Researchers at the Organization for the Conservation of Aquatic Animals (ORCA), a Peruvian marine animal conservation organization, attributed the mass deaths to the use of deep water sonar by ships in nearby waters. In June of 2008, four days after a Navy helicopter was using controversial sonar equipment during training exercises off the Cornish coast in Great Britain, 26 dolphins died in a mass stranding.

Two quick questions: If sonar beams can kill fully developed dolphins, what effect, then, do they have on the developing brains of in-utero embryos and fetuses? And why is this never discussed or debated or mentioned on TV broadcasts?

Getting back to those embryos and fetuses, Rodgers explains that an ultrasound used in fetal imaging emits short pulses of high-frequency sound waves that reflect off the tissues of the fetus, and the return echoes are converted into images. In addition to vibration, ultrasound waves can cause heating of the tissue and bone.”

“When the transducer from the ultrasound is positioned over the part of the fetus the operator is trying to visualize,” she continues, “the fetus may be feeling vibrations, heat or both.”

Rodgers then cites a warning the Food and Drug Administration issued way back in 2004: “…even at low levels, [ultrasound] laboratory studies have shown it can have…”jarring vibrations” – one study compared the noise to a subway coming into a station – “and a rise in temperature.”

Imagine how these assaults affect the developing brain of a fetus!

Just as concerning, as far back 1982, the World Health Organization’s (WHO) study, “Effects of Ultrasound on Biological Systems,” concluded that “…neurological, behavioral, developmental, immunological, hematological changes and reduced fetal weight can result from exposure to ultrasound.” Two years later, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reported that when birth defects occurred, the acoustic output [of sonograms] was usually high enough to cause considerable heat.

And yet, in 1993, the FDA approved an eight-fold increase in the potential acoustical output of ultrasound equipment! Ostensibly, this increase was done to enhance better visualization of the heart and small vessels during microsurgery. Clearly, the health and well-being of developing fetuses was not a consideration!

“Can the fact that this increase in potential thermal effects happened during the same period of time the incidence of autism increased nearly 60-fold be merely coincidental?” Rodgers asks.

Pregnant women are always warned to avoid steam rooms and saunas, based on studies published in numerous prestigious journals in which an irrefutable relationship between elevated maternal temperature and the development of brain defects in their infants has been established.

Again, Rodgers asks the question every woman must be asking herself after hearing of the disastrous results of the new CDC study:

“Using common sense, why would anyone think that intruding upon the continuous, seamless development of the fetus, which has for millions of years completed its work without assistance, be without consequences?”

KEEPING THE HEAT ON (so to speak)

In October of 2010, Ms. Rodgers participated in a forum sponsored by the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. In PDF format, she presented a lecture about autism and ultrasound entitled “The Elephant in the Room,” which included the following information:

• A worldwide autism boom identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) began with children born in 1988-1989.
• Since the FDA approved an allowable eightfold increase in acoustic output in the early ’90s, only one prospective study has been undertaken. The study design did not expose fetuses to the first-trimester scans that are common today.
• Ultrasound use and autism are more prevalent among higher socioeconomic groups.
• Several studies have shown an increased prevalence of autism among better-educated, more affluent communities. Women in these communities undoubtedly have health insurance and other resources to allow access to good nutrition, prenatal vitamins, and excellent prenatal care, which, according to current practice, includes more ultrasound.

Autism surveys and studies have found the following groups of women are at higher risk of bearing children with autism:

• Mothers who receive first-trimester care.
• Mothers with higher educations.
• Mothers with private health insurance.
• Older mothers.

Rodgers concludes: Only increased exposure to prenatal ultrasound can explain all of the above.

Rodgers also elaborates on how things have changed since the FDA approved an eight-fold increase in the potential acoustical output of ultrasounds in 1993.

• The number of ultrasound scans conducted during each pregnancy has increased, with women often receiving two or more scans even in low-risk situations.
• The development of the vaginal probe, which positions the beam of sound much closer to the embryo or fetus, may put it at higher risk.
• The use of Doppler ultrasound, which is used to study blood flow or to monitor the baby’s heartbeat, has increased. According to the 2006 Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, “routine Doppler ultrasound in pregnancy does not have health benefits for women or babies and may do some harm.”

Currently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are researching this issue in their Study to Explore Early Development (SEED).

There is a vast human tragedy – a true man-made disaster – taking place before our eyes.

For whatever reasons – follow the money? – the mountain of evidence that points to a causal relationship between prenatal ultrasound exams and an escalating pandemic of autism is being systematically ignored.

Could it have anything to do with the huge investments doctors and scientists have made in ultrasound technology, which, according to Jennifer Margulis, “adds more than $1 billion to the cost of caring for pregnant women in America each year”?

Could it have anything to do with the revenue now pouring like an avalanche into the coffers of diagnostic and treatment centers and classrooms?

Could it have anything to do with modern journalism’s almost complete abandonment of hard-nosed reporting and life-saving exposés?

As Caroline Rodgers said, there is an elephant in the room when it comes to the subject of autism ––and that elephant is the worldwide blitzkrieg of ultrasound exams on pregnant women, exams that have bombarded the babies they’re carrying with the brain-warping sound waves and heat that will continue to affect them every second of their autistic lives.

December 10, 2022

When I watch TV with my husband Steve, a former athlete, I see superb ballplayers in basketball, baseball, and football exhibiting what immense discipline went into their sculpted bodies, what sacrifices they made to achieve their goals, what tremendous––almost superhuman––talent they have in effecting that three-point shot from mid-court, that spectacular triple play, that “you’ve been Mossed” catch in the endzone.

And I picture them as young boys watching Michael Jordan, Derek Jeter, Tom Brady, and saying to themselves what Steve––his team’s slugger––said to himself in 1955, when, at the age of 14, he took the 3,000-mile train ride from New Haven, CT, to Portland, OR, to compete in the Babe Ruth League World Series in the Multnomah Stadium: “I’m gonna be the next Joe DiMaggio!”

It only added to that lofty ambition when the residents of The City of Roses greeted the teenaged boys by showering red, white, and pink roses on them when they got off the train.

As it happened, the star pitcher of Steve’s team got into a fistfight and was sent home on the next train. And that left Steve to face not only the 15-year-old pitcher Mickey Lolich, who became the three-time All-Star and World Series winner for the Detroit Tigers, but also 15-year-old Al Downing, who became an ace pitcher for the NY Mets and NY Yankees (and other teams).

“I was up three times and Lolich pitched me nine pitches I couldn’t hit,” Steve told me, smiling back at the memory.

But that humbling experience didn’t discourage Steve from continuing to admire and emulate his heroes DiMaggio and Mantle and Koufax, et al, and to engage in the sports he loved…both baseball and basketball, the latter of which earned him All Connecticut and All New England status, as well as the coveted New England Championship in 1959 in high school, and subsequently to become the captain of the Dartmouth College basketball team.

At the high school New England Championship game in Boston Garden: Pictured from left to right in ‘59: Tookie Gomez, Jimmy Hill, Steve, Maurice Sykes, Lindsay Haughton, with Coach Sam Bender.

Why? “Because when you admire someone and you want to be like them,” Steve told me, “You study what they do, how they act, what they say. You try to find out what the secrets of their success are, with the goal of achieving what they’ve achieved, or at least coming close. And that goes for farmers or hedge-fund managers, ballerinas or composers or astronauts, rich or poor black or white…that goes for everyone!”

Indeed, intelligent people who play sports realize when they’re quite young that the way to achieve your goals is to emulate the people you admire…their discipline, drive, sacrifice, demeanor, behavior. And to learn the lessons that only sports, not school, teaches: humility, how to deal with disappointment with grace, how to be modest in victory, how to be grateful for the gifts of health and talent that God has given you.

YE AND KYRIE KNOW ALL THIS

Certainly, the rap star and clothing designer Ye (aka Kanye West) is not stupid, as anyone who watched his interview with Tucker Carlson saw with their own eyes. He is articulate and thoughtful. He told Carlson that he was raised by a mother he loved and a father he idolized, “the most brilliant man.” His father, he proudly stated, was a member of the Black Panthers Party, a Marxist-Leninist and black power organization founded in 1966.

Before it was founded, Blacks and Jews comprised an influential alliance, with Jews contributing significant financial aid and both moral support and concrete assistance to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), and many other Black organizations fighting for equality and against racism. Not to omit their collaborative efforts to enroll Blacks to vote, for which New York residents, Jewish volunteers Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner, were savagely murdered in 1964 in Mississippi.

Yet given this history, quite familiar to Ye, he nevertheless tweeted on October 9, 2022, that his intention was to go  Def Con 3 on Jewish people, which to most people meant to wipe out the Jews who so irritate and enrage him, and that includes the power that he apparently believes the Jews in his life––his managers, agents, handlers, doctors, et al––seem to have over him.

And while spewing this hatred, he also insisted that he was one of the “real” Jews, ostensibly referring to the Hebrew Israelite group  or cult or whatever it is.

Kyrie Irving, too, the Brooklyn Nets phenom basketball star, is, like Ye, highly intelligent and thoughtful. But on October 27, 2022, he tweeted a link to an Amazon listing page for Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America, a 2018 film based on a book of the same name, which promotes Black Hebrew Israelite ideology, apparently theorizing, as Chaim Lax spells out, that Blacks were really the first Jews.

Clearly neither of these grievance purveyors have ever seen the massive number of proud dark-skinned Israeli Jews who hail from Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Libya, Morocco, Syria, Tunisia, Yemen, and Ethiopia. In fact, Barry Shaw, author, journalist, and executive in the Israel Institute for Strategic Studies writes that, “white Israelis are a minority in the Jewish homeland.”

The film also includes denials that the Holocaust occurred, admiring quotes attributed to Adolf Hitler, and the vicious anti-Semite Henry Ford who claims that Jewish people worship Satan, as well as accusations that Jews controlled the Atlantic slave trade and currently control the media.

WHO ARE THE REAL VICTIMS?

According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Hate Crime statistics, Jews remain the highest target of rampant racism in America, but it is rare to see any reaction from the media when Jews are assaulted, insulted, harassed, vilified, physically attacked and even murdered, not only in America but around the world. So, it was quite out of the ordinary when Ye was immediately and severely sanctioned by the advertisers who have made him a billionaire and that overnight he lost that status and was reduced––a big boo hoo here—to being worth a mere $400-million dollars

Kyrie, too, was sanctioned, suspended from playing for five games, and lost millions in advertising revenue, including from Nike, which cancelled his pricey contract. To his credit, however, he posted this tweet:

“While doing research on YHWH, I posted a Documentary that contained some false anti-Semitic statements, narratives, and language that were untrue and offensive to the Jewish Race/Religion, and I take full accountability and responsibly for my actions,” Irving wrote.” I am grateful to have a big platform to share knowledge and I want to move forward by having an open dialogue to learn more and grow from this.”

Note: YHWH, Yahweh, is the name for the God of the Israelites, which was the Hebrew name revealed to Moses in the book of Exodus.

A NATURAL ALLIANCE GONE WRONG

Why was the Black-Jewish alliance natural? Because Blacks had been slaves in Africa and America, and Jews had been slaves in Egypt for over 400 years. Blacks were always reviled minorities outside of Africa and Jews were always reviled minorities in every country they have been exiled to for the past 4,000 years, except for the United States of America, which is 246 years old, and Israel, which is on the brink of its 75^th anniversary.

Even today, Blacks in the U.S. represent approximately 14 percent of the population, while Jews represent approximately 2.4 percent of the population. Blacks have been vilified, marginalized, mistrusted, and, yes, lynched and murdered, just for being Blacks. Jews have been vilified, marginalized, mistrusted, and, yes, six million murdered in cold blood  simply because they were Jews.

But instead of these two naturally simpatico minorities supporting each other, we have the larger minority, Blacks, engaging in fulminating hatred of Jews for many decades––thanks to career race hustlers and brutal anti-Semites like the pompous pontificating racists––the Devils quoting Scripture––Reverend Jesse Jackson, Reverend Al Sharpton, Reverend Louis Farrakhan, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, as well as Barack Obama, “the Squad” in the U.S. Congress, and now Ye and Kyrie, to name a teeny tiny sample of Black hatred toward Jews. All of whom have taught their acolytes to consider themselves victims!

BUT IS IT REALLY HATRED?

The human race is driven by emotion. It’s nice to fantasize that we’re driven by empiricism, facts, objective truths. But both history and everyday life contradict that fantasy. Emotion rules the day.

The Number One emotion is fear, which we all witnessed as the Covid-19 pandemic swept the globe, forced children to miss two years of schooling, destroyed many thousands of businesses, frightened millions of people into taking an experimental, DNA-altering vaccine, often with significantly dire consequences, et al.

Jews are all too familiar with the emotion of fear, as are Blacks.

The second most powerful emotion is jealousy. Most crimes––including murder––are committed in the name of this raging sentiment, and lesser crimes and everyday hostility are also caused by the monster of green-eyed envy. Basically, the person with this curse of an emotion is saying: I want what you have and the fact that you have it, and I don’t have, makes me blind with rage, makes me hate you.

On the surface, it seems obvious that what Ye and Kyrie and the Jew haters who have weighed in on their behalf are experiencing is blind jealousy. “How come,” they seem to be asking themselves, “that with all my intelligence, talent, charm, connections, good looks and money, it’s the Jews who run Hollywood and the music business and the media and me???”

Objectively, numerically, these accusations are simply not true. Here, Rory Rochman, noted speaker on Jewish rights, addresses Ye’s admitted jealousy problem with Jews. But sticking with the issue at hand, human emotions, is it really jealousy?

After jealousy, the third and hugely powerful emotion is anger, an easy emotion to access, whether it involves dealing with an irritating relative, witnessing a boyfriend who hurt your daughter’s feelings, hitting a pothole that breaks your axle, even trying to reach your doctor by pushing 2, then 4, then 7, then more horrible music.

But fear, jealousy and anger are only three layers of the psychological onion.

There is a fourth, but let’s look first at where the rage of the Blacks should really be––but isn’t.

WHO SHOULD BLACKS BE FURIOUS AT?

Who has inflicted the most harm on Blacks? In a word…Democrats.

Who fought ferociously against President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, which freed 3.5 million Black slaves for all time? Democrats!

Who created the Ku Klux Klan, which hunted down, tortured, lynched, and murdered Blacks during its entire tenure (from 1865 to today)? Democrats!

Who created the Jim Crow laws which mandated racial segregation in all public facilities? Everyone from Democrat President Woodrow Wilson to Democrat Alabama Governor George Wallace (“segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever”) to Virginia Democrat Senator Robert Byrd, on and on and on––all Democrats!

Who fought fiercely against the Civil Rights legislation of 1964, which dismantled Jim Crow segregation, combatted racial discrimination, removed barriers to black enfranchisement in the South that banned poll taxes, literacy tests, and other measures that effectively prevented African Americans from voting? Democrats!

IT GETS WORSE…

When all that failed to get rid of Blacks––as Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, stated as her goal––Democrats figured that the sure-fire way to keep Blacks voting for them was to destroy their families and thus insure that they remain in poverty and especially in ignorance.

To that end, they created a welfare system with the following rule: I will support you, Ms. Black Woman, with housing, food, medical care, and childcare…no matter how many babies you give birth to…with one condition: you cannot marry! If you marry, your benefits will either be substantially reduced… or eliminated!

Poof! The one-parent home was created, where Black mothers still had to work to make ends meet, where their children had no inspiring or disciplining male role models, and where single motherhood exploded from only seven percent––when the War on Poverty began in 1964 under Democrat President Lyndon B. Johnson––to 23 percent today.

…AND WORSE

In the Great Northward Migration between 1910 and 1970, six-million Blacks left the rural south for the urban northeast, Midwest, and west, many of them to New York, where a criminal public school system has kept them ignorant and unemployable to this very day.

That system has “graduated” thousands upon thousands of Black students who are unable to read, calculate, or even speak coherently. Inevitably, they find work with the neighborhood people who drive fancy cars, sport Rolex watches, and have huge wads of cash on hand––pimps, organized crime figures, and drug dealers. And then they end up in prison, often for life!

And who contributes mightily to this destructive system? None other than the president of the American Federation of Teachers from 1998 to today, Democrat Randi Weingarten, a woman former Secretary of State Mick Pompeo says “is a danger to our children.”

That’s right, Weingarten represents the teachers who have mal-educated generations of Black students, supports the preposterous construct of Social Promotion–– promoting a child to the next grade regardless of skill mastery in the belief that it will promote self-esteem––all while she engages in anti-parent screeds and is lionized at the Biden White House!

The public schools run by Democrat-controlled unions and benefits-infatuated teachers have only vile insults at the mention of Eva Moskowitz, the woman who founded the first Charter School–– Success Academy––in New York City––there are now dozens, with Black parents clamoring to enroll their children. These schools educate children largely from black ghettos, who pass the Regents with flying colors on MERIT, score high marks on the SATs on MERIT, graduate from high school and go on to top-flight colleges on MERIT, and then go on to lives of independence and success.

…AND EVEN WORSE

Then there was the Democrat idea of Affirmative Action, the policy of favoring individuals for college admissions who belong to groups regarded as disadvantaged or subject to discrimination. Of course, it was a crashing failure. In essence, it said to Blacks: Look, you’re not that smart or motivated or accomplished, but you can still succeed if you don’t have to pass these whitey tests to get into college.

Did the proponents of this plan think so little of the native intelligence of Blacks that they wouldn’t see through the tremendous patronization and insult it inflicted? Did the program itself fail to see that Blacks who “graduated” from inferior high schools would not only be unable to keep up with the academic burden, but would be further wounded by their failure to do so?

So, they tried another strategy, the truly horrific, nonsensical and basically illiterate-supporting Common Core curricula inflicted on students by the Obama regime. Yet another crashing failure by the liberals, leftists, progressives among us––unless you think that credit should be given for students who can explain how they arrived at 2 + 2 = 5!

THE LAST LAYER OF THE EMOTIONAL ONION

Underneath the paralyzing layer of fear, below the obsessive nature of jealousy, under the blind rage and anger, there is the devastating emotion of despair. Of feeling that it’s all too much, too impossible, too overwhelming. This is the stuff of clinical depression. This is the stuff of suicide.

After all, fear and jealousy and anger are mobilizing! What can I do? Which protest group can I join? Who can I wreak my revenge on?

But despair has no allies. It is lonely. It is scary. It is immobilizing.

It is also what Ye and Kyrie and the legion of anti-Semites are most afraid of, with good reason, as suicides among Blacks have recently escalated dramatically.

THE SOLUTION

Don’t despair! The absolute cure for Black rage, jealousy, anger, and despair lies in one simple word: Emulate!

Spend one month of your entire life living with an observant Jewish family, reading the Bible, learning of the extreme emphasis Jews place on family unity, education, philanthropy, and mitzvahs––good deeds that can range from a simple smile to building a cancer research center to rushing all over the world to help in disaster areas.

Study why Jews, because of vicious discrimination, were forced literally to create Hollywood, why they were forced to build some of the best medical and research centers in America because they were barred from internships and residencies, the list of survival strategies is long and impressive.

Stop your jealousy. Stop your rage. Stop listening to the screeching racist preachers and politicians who have told you that you were a victim starting in your mother’s womb!

Start joining us Jews in fighting the real enemy, the actual powerful forces that have kept you down, defeated, and depressed: Liberals, Leftists, and Progressive Democrats and a horrific public education system.

Or, alternatively, stay in your perpetual rageful victim mode and see how far you’ve progressed in the next five or 10 or 1,000 years!

November 8, 2022

In 1959, I was 18, newly married to my former boyfriend of four years, and thrilled to be starting my “grown-up” life with the man of my dreams. Little did my then-apolitical self know that the close of that halcyon decade had been preceded by nearly a century of a concerted effort to destroy the American family, an effort fueled by the same fanatical Communist zealots who now occupy the Oval Office of the United States of America!

Now why would anyone––much less a huge number of people––want to destroy the greatest and most successful experiment in government in world history, one which President Abraham Lincoln described as “of the people, by the people, for the people,” the Democratic Republic of the United States of America?

Simply, because it flew in the face of every political system that previously existed––monarchies, dictatorships, oligarchies, aristocracies, totalitarianism, communism, socialism––systems in which the immense power and abuse-of-power that these regimes exercised would be vanquished if replaced by the Power of the People that the Founding Fathers of America envisioned.

The mission of those other regimes was never ever about concern for their populaces; rather it was––and is today––purely about the acquisition and maintenance of power and control and especially the immense wealth that comes with both power and control. Always, always, always follow the money!

HOW CAN WE DESTROY AMERICA?

The enemies of America thought long and hard about how to destroy this fledgling experiment. It was clear to them that America’s strength was a function of three phenomena:

• A fervent belief in the God who makes miracles happen, for just one example the crushing defeat of the thunderously powerful English Empire’s armies by blazing patriots like General George Washington and his ragtag army of American heroes.
• An equally ardent belief in and passion for the concept of Freedom. Men who knew they were going to die, and their wives who believed their deaths were for the noble cause of freedom, all sacrificed to bring about our victory over the monarchy that wanted to continue to rule us.
• The most passionate was the embrace, belief, and allegiance to family, its sanctity, its strength, its ability to weather all storms and overcome all obstacles.

If we destroy all three, our enemies reasoned, the masses they considered essentially stupid would be forced to rely exclusively on Big Government. And so, to this day, the socialists-cum-communists among us are employing––as their predecessors did–– every malevolent, criminal, and vicious tactic they can muster to actualize that goal.

ASTOUNDING PROGRESS

The America haters among us have already:

• Infiltrated our public schools and contaminated generations of students with anti-American propaganda, as well as explicit pornography and grooming, even in kindergarten!
• Lured both Christians and Jews to abandon their faiths and to worship the new God of Social Justice.
• Succeeded in the leftist––and I believe traitorous––infiltration of our military and Intelligence services like the FBI and CIA.
• Rigged the 2020 presidential election, which political activist Dinesh D’Souza also proved in his explosive film, 2000 Mules.
• On and on and on.

Still, the family remains their most desired––yet maddeningly elusive––target.

HELP ALONG THE WAY

That effort was generously helped––perhaps, at first, innocently––by the theories of Sigmund Freud (1836-1939), the Austrian neurologist-cum-psychiatrist who was wildly successful in convincing the relatively new and free-thinking American public that the genesis of neuroses, phobias, anxieties, obsessions, depression, psychosis, and general psychological malfunction not only took place in the first few years of life, but that the mothers who raised these suffering children were primarily to blame. Later therapists, like the sadistic psychiatrist Bruno Bettelheim, blamed mothers for their children’s autism.

Mission #1 Accomplished: Mothers are not good for children.

These psychological theories prevailed throughout the 20^th century and up to today, embraced by generations of psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, and psychotherapists until 1998 when they were thoroughly debunked by Judith Rich Harris in The Nurture Assumption, where the Harvard-educated psychologist and editor of most of the psychology texts used in colleges and medical schools in America argued persuasively that a person’s peer group is the major influence of thought, feelings, and behavior throughout life.

THE NEXT STEP

In 1960, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the most world-changing medication in history, developed by Dr. John Rock, a Harvard professor and obstetrician-gynecologist with five children––along with Drs. Gregory Pincus, C.M. Phang, and Selzo Garcia. Their creation was the birth-control pill, aka The Pill! For the first time in world history, women had control over their reproduction.

For millions of women, it was their own Declaration of Independence, and a huge relief not to have to worry every month about getting pregnant.

Mission #2 Accomplished: Now we can be just like men, some women reasoned, and have as much sex as we want without worrying about getting pregnant. Thus was the Free Sex movement born and a complete redefinition of traditional morality.

GET OUT OF THE HOUSE!

Three years after The Pill, in 1963, a book by Betty Friedan, a housewife with three children, shot to the top of every bestseller list. In essence, The Feminine Mystique told women that they were simply too smart, too creative, too intrinsically or at least potentially powerful to be spending their time, actually wasting their time changing diapers, folding laundry, and—the most colossal waste of time of all––raising children.

Nevertheless, Friedan’s book resonated with multimillions of women who had lived through the peaceful ‘50s and been spared the suffering and sacrifice of their mothers and grandmothers who had lived through the Great Depression in 1929, planted Victory Gardens during World Wars I and II, joined Rosie the Riveter in working in factories and shipyards to help the WWII war effort, lost husbands and sons to war, often raised children on their own, yet kept their families intact. The list of their arduous and valorous deeds goes on and on.

But that was then, the young women of the ‘60’s believed…this is now. Look what we have already accomplished! After that stodgy old Republican President (and former General) Dwight D. Eisenhower, we elected the dashing Democrat John F. Kennedy, with his glamorous wife Jackie and their two adorable children––all who ushered in the age of politics on “live” TV.

Mission #3 Accomplished: Multimillions of young women abandoned the once-desired goal of early marriage and motherhood and instead enrolled in colleges and universities where they pursued professional careers ranging from medicine and law and architecture to jobs like telephone linewomen to military combatants to firefighters to hedge fund managers to business executives, et al.

Coincidentally, ahem, an economy that once allowed men to work outside of the home and support a wife and children magically became an economy that only two working parents could afford. Kind of like an economy that was completely energy independent in 2020 quite magically became one in which the President of the United States had to beg foreign countries to sell him oil in 2021.

REALITY SETS IN

But the ‘60s also ushered in the historically unprecedented rash of violent assassinations––live on TV––of:

• U.S. President John F. Kennedy in 1963 (age 46),
• Firebrand Black activist Malcolm X in 1965 (age 39),
• Civil Rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968 (age 39),
• Former Attorney General and presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy in 1968 (age 42).

All of a sudden, the idealized world of the newly emancipated women was shattered. The world is out of control, they realized. Is it any wonder that so many of them enthusiastically embraced (or attended) the 1969 Woodstock Music Festival, with not only free sex but a geyser of drugs for the smoking and snorting and injecting?

Mission #4 Accomplished: Many of these college-educated women congratulated themselves on avoiding marriage and especially motherhood, asking themselves: “Who wants to bring a child into this world?”

ONLY A FEW YEARS LATER

In 1971, Gloria Steinem––“We are becoming the men we wanted to marry” ––founded the first national feminist magazine, Ms., along with founding editor Letty Cottin Pogrebin and others.

Its message, as Pogrebin said on TV, was to spare women the dire fate of talking to their friends about laundry detergents. This and other angry feminist messages inspired an entire generation of women to use The Pill, defer marriage, go to college, pursue careers, and not even contemplate marriage or motherhood until their early- or mid-thirties, when their biological clocks started ticking quite loudly.

Mission #5 Accomplished: The traditional nuclear family was being dismantled by a new generation of women who bought into the notion that making money was infinitely more satisfying, meaningful, and important than raising children.

MARRIAGE OUT––NOW BABIES OUT!

On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued a 7–2 decision in Roe v. Wade that all women had a “right” to an abortion. To this day, that decision is the Holy Grail of millions of women who believe that “my body, my choice” starts after they’ve had unprotected sex and gotten pregnant with a baby they don’t want.

In 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and sent the decision for abortion back to each individual state. Today, every woman in the United States who wants an abortion can get an abortion, although some may have to endure the inconvenience of traveling to another state…forget about the inconvenience their embryos face of a death sentence!

Mission #6 Accomplished: The once-most-cherished accomplishment of both men and women—to be the parent of a newborn baby––was effectively reduced to ending that baby’s life in utero. And today, in some states, abortion exists right up to the moment a full-term baby is delivered, and, believe it or not, in California, even up to the time a healthy thriving baby is 28 days old!

THE TICKING CLOCK

But uh-oh. After graduating from college and laboring in the workforce for over a decade, millions of women realized that this money-making thing wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. But looking for a good man––after stepping on their necks on the way up the ladder––was even more problematic.

Nevertheless, the new social phenomenon of women marrying in their mid-thirties and older took hold, and not coincidentally gave rise to a booming in-vitro-fertilization industry, as millions of these new brides learned that conceiving and carrying a child after the age of 35 was both a “high-risk” and extremely pricey enterprise.

Mission #7 Accomplished: Take the joy out of intimacy and sex, make it a mechanical act, and further erode both marriage and the family at the same time.

BUT WHAT ABOUT MY CAREER?

The modern women had been told by the influencers of the day that they could “have it all” –– marriage, children, and career. Since they wanted it all, they bought it!

Some women were lucky to have their mothers or mothers-in-law or even young grandmothers volunteer to raise their children, and a rare few could afford expensive nannies.

But most women had to rely on another industry that boomed like no other––the daycare business––where mothers dropped off their infants, babies, toddlers, and preschoolers to caregivers who tended up to 20 or more children at a time. This meant that for the entire day, paid workers made sure that those children were safe and fed, but not necessarily held, loved, comforted, taught, or nurtured.

However, this still allowed the mothers of these infants, babies, toddlers, and preschoolers to brag that the hour or so they spent with their child at the end of a day––in which both mother and child were exhausted––was, ahem, “quality time.”

In addition, these “older” mothers, already guilty about the protracted hours away from their children, strove to be “friends” with their kids, praising them for, um, waking up in the morning, even smoking pot with them, and, in essence, abandoning the traditional role of the parent who teaches right and wrong, good and bad, proper behavior, et al.

Mission #8 Accomplished: Women out of the home, children being raised by strangers, the American family being dismantled piece by piece.

THE GENIUS STEVE FACTOR

Two geniuses…Steve Case, the founding CEO of America Online (AOL) in 1983 (which really took off in the ‘90s), and Steve Jobs, who invented, created, introduced the iPhone in 2007 and the iPad in 2010.

No need to elaborate on the degree to which these geniuses totally eliminated face-to-face communication and succeeded in riveting both parents and children to all the tantalizing distractions on these electronic devices that separate people and depersonalize intimate relationships, especially meaningful communication between parents and children.

Mission #9 Accomplished: Family concerns take a backseat to beeping texts, sexy emojis, Facebook invitations, Instagram images, Hollywood gossip, and horrifically graphic porn sites, which even savvy eight-year-olds can access with ease.

Worse, this has given rise to an entire generation of sociopaths who, understandably, have little or no human empathy, given the largely robotic care they received, combined with their toxic schooling and intimate “relationships” with their electronic devices.

Also, a remarkably fragile generation. When parents fear that “everything children see, do, eat, hear, and lick could hurt them,” write Lenore Skenazy and Jonathan Haidt in “The Fragile Generation,” children are left “more fragile, more easily offended, and more reliant on others.” Safe spaces, anyone?

EMBOLDENED PSYCHOPATHS

With all this success, it is no wonder that the lunatics who are running the insane asylum that is America today have inflicted their warped vision of the world on a tremendous number of people, thanks largely to a corrupt leftist media who are literally paid––see Media Whores––to carry these sick messages 24/7.

Men can have babies, they say. Well, of course, it you’re a woman who thinks she’s a man and decides to “transition” and undergo a double mastectomy and take testosterone injections but keeps her ovaries and uterus and Fallopian tubes and then is artificially inseminated and conceives and carries a baby, all the time proclaiming her maleness, he/she must think we’re all like recent Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who when asked to define a woman said she couldn’t because “I am not a biologist.” Right.

“YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE THERE”

And now we have an ad––since removed and eliminated from every search engine––that shows a child laughing and sharing an experience with her clearly delighted mother. Both are on iPads communicating long distance. The ad ends with a voice telling the mother: “You Don’t Have to Be There.”

Right. The mother doesn’t have to be there to raise and love and comfort and teach and tuck her child in at night, and the father doesn’t have to be there, either. Only Big Government should raise their child to be a good little obedient Communist. That’s the message!

Mission #10 Accomplished: Father never mentioned, mother out of the picture, the actual premeditated murder of the American family.

I rest my case.

June 12, 2022

King Solomon said, “there is nothing new under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:9).

The sun rises, and the sun goes down…all streams run to the sea… what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.

In his prescience, King Solomon no doubt knew that one of the things that would remain the same was the obdurate persistence––over thousands of years––of maniacal Jew hatred and a fanatical loathing of Israel.

If it weren’t so serious, and deadly, it would be almost comical, considering that the massive, heavily armed, immensely populated, and hugely influential empires that tried to annihilate the Jews—the Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Assyrians, et al––have been extinct for centuries, while the teeny tiny world of Judaism flourishes to this day.

And that is not to omit the Crusades and Inquisition and forced conversions and the 20^th century Holocaust in which Hitler’s “willing executioners“––all over Europe––succeeded in mass-murdering a full half of the world’s Jewry. Here is a partial picture of Jewish history and persecution that makes the vibrancy of modern Jewish life even more amazing!

But not so amazing that today, in the putatively evolved 21^st century, the historical scourge of viciously rampant Jew hatred not only gallops across the globe but also in hundreds if not thousands of colleges and universities in our own country!

According to The Center for the Study of Contemporary European Jewry, hatred of Jews is on a significant rise. Their 2021 survey reports:

• In the US, which has the largest Jewish population outside of Israel, the number of anti-Jewish hate crimes recorded in both New York and Los Angeles was almost twice that of the previous year,
• In France, the number of recorded anti-Semitic incidents increased by nearly 75% compared with 2020,
• In Canada, a leading Jewish group reported a 40-year record in anti-Semitic physical violence in one month – August,
• In the UK, the number of recorded physical assaults against Jews increased by 78% compared with 2020,
• In Germany, anti-Semitic incidents recorded by police were up 29% compared with 2020,
• In Australia, there was the sharpest rise in recorded anti-Semitic incidents, with 88 in May alone.
• In Ukraine (Jewish population: 43,000), acts of vandalism against Jews increased 162.5% from 2019.

In fact, according to the Annual Report on Hate Crimes released by the Uniform Crime Reporting Program of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), it is Jews, among the world’s tiniest populations––15 million in a world of nearly eight billion––who experience the most bias, hatred, assaults, blatant racism and hate crimes.

Yet, we Jews continue to thrive not only in our ancestral home in the State of Israel but around the world, contributing disproportionately, as we always have, to the world’s welfare––in science, the arts, medicine, technology, athletics, media, et al. Still, the world’s Jew haters and Israel loathers continue to marinate in their DNA hatred and envy of the Jews who, of course, they should be admiring and emulating. Stupid is forever!

WHO COULD IMAGINE?

It is inconceivable that in America, a country that welcomes the stranger, strives mightily for equality, and in which minorities have succeeded far beyond even their own expectations, that many of our leaders have been outright racists themselves, with a particularly irrational hatred toward Jews.

Going back to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, whose Jew hatred has been exhaustively documented by professor, columnist and author Rafael Medoff, among others; up to the Ayatollah-infatuated Jimmy Carter who had and continues to have a “special animus” toward Jews and Israel, according to rabbi and author Shmuley Boteach; and not to omit the seething Jew hatred of Barack Obama, as spelled out here and here and here and here, the list has no end.

But who could imagine that in the so-called evolved culture of 2022, that among the most maniacally anti-Semitic people in the world––and among the most powerful––are those in the Biden regime who currently occupy the White House?

Very unfortunately, many of them are apostate Jews…you know, the species that has replaced Judaism with their own fetishistic, cult-like religion of Social Justice––a cult that worships at the altar of political correctness, multiculturalism, moral relativism, and the convoluted and racist construct of intersectionality.

And all of them are Democrats, including a huge number of elected members of the U.S. Congress! We have all witnessed the ferocious Jew hatred and abhorrence of Israel vomited out on a regular basis by the growing number of racist Democrats in the U.S. Congress, aka “the Squad” of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Cori Bush (D-MO), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Jamaal Bowman (NY), and Ilhan Omar (D-MN), et al––the list gets longer every day.

Here is their latest  Resolution, which calls the founding of Israel “a catastrophe.” And here, political activist Paul Schnee describes The Treachery of the ‘Squad’.

Of course, if any member of Congress dared to criticize the color, style, or primitive nature of a:

or a:

…all hell would break loose. But vilify, insult, lie about, slander, or proffer a blood libel about Jews, a thunderous silence!

WHY ARE SO MANY JEWS DEMOCRATS?

Clearly it is not solely because their parents and grandparents were Democrats, but because they appear to genuinely like high taxes, open borders, a weak military, no-bail laws, the rampant thuggery of Black Lives Matter and Antifa, and especially abortions up to birth (now legal in 29 states) and even infanticide after live births. We know this because this is what they consistently––decade after decade after decade––campaign for, teach their children, contribute money to, and vote for.

But there are other theories. Writer M. B. Mathews says this phenomenon is “hard to fathom.” But a rabbi in New Jersey, he reports, says that Jews vote Democrat because it’s in their DNA.

The late English journalist Malcolm Muggeridge, Mathews writes, said: “I am not certain that college attendance is the only cause of Jewish liberalism, but it is probably the most likely culprit. Many colleges are festering pustules of regressive socialist/Marxist thinking. Our Jewish youngsters are being groomed intellectually to be perversely liberal.”

And editor, writer and conservative political commentator Norman Podhoretz has posited that “To most American Jews . . . liberalism is . . . the very essence of being a Jew…it is a religion in its own right, complete with its own catechism and its own dogmas and, Tertullian-like, obdurately resistant to facts…”

IN THEIR OWN WORDS

But don’t believe me. Here, in alphabetical order, are the direct quotes and credentials and behavior of some of Joe Biden’s hand-picked Jew-hating and Israel-loathing appointees, which are not limited to the Oval Office, but also include officials in the State Department, the National Security Council, the Defense Department, and U.S. intelligence agencies. It is as if the arch criterion for employment in this regime is a loathing of Jews and detestation of Israel. Otherwise, don’t apply!

I have written about this before, but I repeat it here because I believe that repetition aids learning. Only space limitations prevents me from listing all these miscreants and presenting the entire sordid picture of these career anti-Semitic racists.

I could write a doctoral thesis on Joe Biden’s animus toward Israel, going back decades. Here are just a few headlines, out of thousands.

Biden Is No Friend of Israel
Biden to visit Jerusalem to tell the world: Zion belongs to Muslims
Biden State Dept “Strongly Opposes” New Jewish Homes in Israel
Biden Institutes Rules Forbidding US Soldiers from Non-Official Travel to Israel
Why Is the Biden Administration Determined to Help Terrorist Iran Get a Bomb?

HADY AMR (whose mother is Jewish) is the Deputy Asst. Secretary for Israeli and Palestinian Affairs. Caroline Glick writes that Amr is an anti-Israel activist with “a long record of statements hostile to Israel and supportive of Palestinian terrorists, including Hamas.” Amr said: “I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada” (the terror wars in which Palestinian Arab terrorists murdered or maimed 10,000 Jews).

MAHER BITAR, the “Palestinian” Senior Director for Intelligence of the National Security Council (NSC), supports the Boycott/Divest/Sanction (BDS) movement to strangle Israel economically and has called for the destruction of Israel.

ANTHONY BLINKEN, Secretary of State (who is Jewish), has praised radical anti-Israel J Street as a ‘constructive force,’” and opposed designating the murderous terrorist Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a foreign terror organization.

KRISTEN CLARKE, head of the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice, has a long history of advocating for anti-Semites and spewing anti-Semitic lies,” going back to her heading Harvard’s Black Students Association.

REEMA DODIN, the “Palestinian” Deputy Director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs, supports the suicide bombings of Jews, was the leader of the Hamas-affiliated Muslim Students Association, and has spread Medieval-style blood libels about Jews.

AVRIL HAINES, Director of National Intelligence (who is Jewish) has been described as rabidly anti-Israel, and was (surprise surprise!) Obama’s deputy national security adviser and is now deputy director of Obama’s anti-Israel Columbia World Project.

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE, White House Press Secretary, former head of far-left, anti-Israel MoveOn.org, has praised lawmakers for boycotting pro-Israel groups and accused Israel of “war crimes.”

JOHN KERRY, who has Jewish roots, is Envoy for Climate. With personal family connections to Iran, Kerry, according to Adam Berkowitz, has written that “even the Israeli leftist newspaper Haaretz is appalled by John Kerry’s bungled, counterproductive, utter capitulation to Hamas.”

ALEJANDRO MAYORKAS, who is Jewish, is Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. He is a board member of HIAS, which partners with terrorism-financier Islamic Relief, and he has undermined Israeli repatriation policies regarding illegal immigrants, among many anti-Israel actions.

DENIS McDONOUGH is Secretary of the Veterans Administration. Obama’s former Chief of Staff, he has spoken at the anti-Israel J Street convention and falsely condemned Israel’s “occupation.” As Obama’s Deputy National Security Advisor, he praised the imam of a Virginia mosque, knowing that the imam was a Muslim Brotherhood leader and VP of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), which directly funds Hamas.

THOMAS NIDES, Obama’s former deputy secretary of state, is Biden’s Israel Ambassador. According to Daniel Greenfield, Nides tells BDS group he wants Jews out of Jerusalem, and also documents that Nides “is the ambassador to the anti-Israel lobby.” Nides also describes Arab terrorists who murder Jews as “martyrs,”

SUSAN RICE is Domestic Policy Advisor (aka Biden’s Valerie Jarrett). The serial liar and inveterate Israel basher was Obama’s senior foreign-policy advisor and John Kerry’s chief foreign-policy adviser when he ran for President. And you know what both those Jew-hating racists stood for!

WENDY SHERMAN, who is Jewish, is Deputy Secretary of State. She negotiated the genocidal-to-Israel Iran deal and has also praised arch-terrorist Yasir Arafat as “the leader of the resistance movement” as well as downplaying the PLO suicide bombings and other terror attacks on innocent Israelis that Arafat engineered; on and on.

Unfortunately, because of space limitations, this is the very veryshort list! But you can see some of Biden’s other Jew-hating, Israel-detesting appointments here.

All of them––I repeat, all of them––are obsessed––to the point of utter capitulation to all the Draconian demands of Iran––to seal the malevolent Iran deal in order to put nuclear weapons into the hands of the one nation on earth that has vowed for the last 50 years literally to destroy every last vestige of the State of Israel, to wipe the only Jewish state in the world and its inhabitants off the map of human history.

I could recite the colossal failures of the current regime, but everyone in America knows and recognizes and “feels” the horrors that a very compromised and diminished Joe Biden and his communist handlers have inflicted on this nation and on their own personal lives.

WHAT TO DO?

There are only two solutions to this regime’s rampant racism.

The first is for every sane citizen to write to their representatives in the U.S. Congress and the U.S. Senate EVERY DAY to insist on voter IDs and scrupulously monitored midterm elections.

If these elected officials don’t answer you, or they send a waffling response, know that they are in on “the fix,” no doubt for the hefty payments they’re receiving––paying off their mortgages, financing their children through college, et al––from the left wing billionaires who control all Democrat behavior.

Here’s How to Contact All 535 Members of United States Congress. CALL, EMAIL, TWEET, et al, them every day!  This will take you 10 minutes.

Simply prepare a two-or-three-line message that expresses your ideas, for example: Mr. President…I insist that you mandate Voter ID cards for ALL voters in ALL elections, starting with the midterms in November 2022.

In influencing elected officials, numbers count! Let’s send them an avalanche of phone calls and a Mt. Everest of e-mails!

The second is to vote in the midterms on Tuesday, November 8, 2022. And to encourage everyone you know to cast their vote in this all-important, history-changing, anti-fascist election.

When We the American People put our hearts and minds and efforts into any mission, we can accomplish anything!

For decades, neuroscientists have recognized that the brain has three distinct systems. One is derived from primitive reptiles that were adept at survival strategies. Another includes the limbic system––often called the “seat of emotions.” The third includes the neocortex and prefrontal lobes (comprising the right and left hemispheres of the brain) that account for thinking, verbal abilities, and other “higher” functions.

My theory is that Terri’s putative husband Michael, his attorney George J. Felos, and Judge George Greer–who ruled for years against Terri’s right to life–have highly developed reptilian brains and prefrontal lobes, but that they are sorely lacking in anything resembling a normal limbic system.

What exactly is the limbic system? Located just below the neocortex, it is the part of the brain that governs––among other emotions––affection, feelings, and most of all, empathy.

What is empathy? Simply, it is the ability to feel what others are feeling. It is not sympathy, which is feeling sorry for someone or that something happened. Empathy, on the other hand, is the ability to put oneself in the place of another person and actually experience the feelings they are experiencing––be they joy, anxiety, fear or pain.

Persuasive research over the past several decades, conducted by the most prestigious science institutions both in America and abroad, has relied on PET and more recently fMRI scans (the “f” stands for functional) that visualize brain activity to demonstrate that structural and functional abnormalities in several brain regions (the limbic system, the amygdala, the hippocampus, et al) account for a lack of empathy.

People who lack empathy are called sociopaths, a euphemistic version of what was once called psychopaths. Like all cold-blooded killers, they are literally incapable of feeling what another person feels. While they may be expert at affecting what amounts to a parody of normality and integrity, charm, and intellect, underneath their guises is a total inability to “feel your pain.”

CALLING A SPADE A SPADE

You can call it bad character, or you can say, as liberals and retro psychotherapists do, that the unfeeling person––like the terrorists who murdered nearly 3,000 innocent Americans on September 11, 2001––are “victims” of their upbringings or circumstances.

I say that no matter the source of the behavior, people lacking the kind of empathy that allows them to kill without remorse––for instance, to starve a healthy woman to death––are no different than other 21^st Century terrorists and deserve the same consequences: indictment, conviction, and imprisonment.

While antidepressant, anti-anxiety and anti-psychotic drugs have successfully treated millions of people with biologically driven mental illnesses––there is NO CURE for sociopaths!

Does this describe the likes of Michael Schiavo, Felos and Greer? You decide.

From what I observed, all of them are reptilian in their icy coldness, and malevolent fakers when they use the “higher centers” of their brains to dissemble and pretend that they “feel” what they clearly don’t feel at all.

They all knew exactly what starvation would entail for Terri, who at the time of her court-ordered death sentence was vibrantly healthy, save for her limited mental function. To name but a few horrifying symptoms that she probably experienced were:

• Skin rashes that they knew she couldn’t scratch as well as irritation of all her tissues, particularly of the tongue, mouth, and vagina,
• Shrinking of her vital organs like the heart and lungs,
• Uncontrollable diarrhea and/or painful contractions of her intestines,
• Frightening weakness that she never felt before,
• Swelling from fluid under her skin,
• Immune deficiency,
• Psychotic thinking.

And these merchants of death were also aware that the dehydration they ordered––depriving Terri of water––would entail:

• Unbearable, unquenchable thirst,
• Muscle weakness and therefore painful cramps,
• Nausea and vomiting,
• Deep rapid breathing and/or, to Terri, a frightening increased heart rate,
• Dried out skin in her nose as well as the pain of cracked lips,
• The shutdown of her kidneys,
• Loss of consciousness.

SNAKES DON’T CARE

Ostensibly unmoved by her plight were a triumvirate of reptiles: Terri’s money-hungry husband had already collected a million dollars in a malpractice settlement about his claim that doctors failed to diagnose her so-called but still-undocumented bulimia, and he also stood to receive $1.2 million as the heir to the remainder of the that judgment; his seemingly euthanasia-infatuated attorney; and the idealogue judge.

All of them were unmoved by Terri’s agonizingly slow death because they claimed she would have chosen that fate for herself. Never mind the absence of a signed Living Will or videotape of her wishes.

During the nearly two weeks that Terri suffered after her feeding tube was removed, empathic people throughout the world had a heightened awareness of their own hunger pangs and thirst, and the merciful availability of the food and drink at their fingertips. But the reptiles didn’t.

When Michael Schiavo––who had obviously been busy following the money––decided that “for better or worse, through sickness and health, ‘til death do us part” were inconvenient elements of the marital oath he swore before God and chose not to divorce Terri nor to seek an annulment of their marriage but opted instead for bigamy and to father two children.

And the normal empathy that develops when people become parents didn’t appear to happen to Michael. Instead of “feeling” the pain that Terri’s parents experienced and identifying with their determination to care for their daughter “in sickness and in health,” he seemed to feel––as all reptiles do––nothing.

And in what federalist.com called “the final act of selfish cruelty, [he] arrived only minutes before her death [and] denied the request of her parents, Mary and Bob Schindler, to remain with Terri for her final breath.”

A VOICE OF MORALITY 

The website’s commentary went on to cite the words of Pope John Paul II, whose empathy for humanity and evolved morality provided stark contrast to the reptilian natures of Michael Schiavo and company. Last year, the Pope––on a feeding tube himself in his final days–– effectively declared his `living will’ in a speech to doctors and ethicists,” saying: “The administration of water and food, even when provided by artificial means, always represents a natural means of preserving life, not a medical act.” He described the denial of such care “euthanasia by omission.”

As far back as 1950, Five Star General Omar Bradley stated what could be aptly applied to the Terri Schiavo case: “We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount…the world has achieved brilliance without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants.”

“What can we expect?” asks Christopher Flickinger in an article in www.therant.us. “For those citizens with handicaps or disabilities, you are forewarned – someone may have his eye on you. If you’re blind, deaf, mute, in a wheelchair, on crutches, use a walker or a cane, walk with a limp or have an appendage missing, you better mind your P’s and Q’s. One little slip-up, just one, and someone could deem your life unfit for living, take away your wheelchair, put you in a Hospice center and starve you to death. [The] excuse would be, “Well, they’re worthless shells of a human. Those cripples have been draining my pocketbook for years – all those ramps and elevators and special parking spots. Forget about legislation in order to fix Social Security. I’ll fix it myself by lightening our load… With this new precedent of social Darwinism sweeping the nation, there’s no end to the possibilities. In a way, we’ll pick-up were Hitler failed. Forget about a master race. We’re more interest in preserving the lives of those who can win the race. And as for everyone else, Pandora’s box is now wide open.”

In Schiavo’s case, criminal proceedings may yet ensue. According to NewsMax.com, Florida’s Department of Children and Families had received 89 allegations that Schiavo had abused his wife – but Judge Greer (surprise!) ruled that DCF summaries of those allegations must remain secret to everyone except (surprise!) Michael Schiavo himself. However, The St. Petersburg Times and the Tampa Tribune have now filed lawsuits for the release of the abuse summaries.

It’s too late for Terri––and the millions of babies who were the victims of infanticide through abortion since her death––but it’s not too late for American citizens to take careful note of those elected officials––overwhelmingly liberals––who through their support of abortion and now euthanasia are responsible for what has become a “culture of death” in our country, and to boot them out of office or make sure they are never elected or reelected.

October 29, 2021

Yes, Shakespeare said that of “a woman scorned.” But even the English bard could never have imagined the red-hot rage of multi millions of women who learned that the children they love and protect and would give their lives for were being taught by their local friendly teachers to hate themselves and hate their country.

As everyone now knows, there has been a massive eruption of nationwide protests as tens, no hundreds, no thousands of mostly Muslim women (and a few of their husbands) have descended on School Board meetings across the country to protest the fact that Critical Race Theory (CRT)is now being inflicted on their children, starting in kindergarten.

They are telling the powers-that-be how much they resent that their children will be taught that Muslims are evil and dangerous––going back to the problems President Thomas Jefferson had with the treacherous Muslim Barbary Pirates––and that this kind of information would be used to warp the minds of their innocent children.

These impassioned Muslim mothers (and some fathers) insist that they are upright and contributory American citizens who benefit America, have been elected to high public office, and pay their taxes. And they list the historical events they insist is their prerogative—and not the role of racist teachers––to explain to their children:

• The deadly bombing of Marine headquarters in Lebanon in 1983, in which 240 American Marines and 21 American seamen were annihilated, thanks to a Muslim suicide bomber.
• The September 11, 2001, attack on America, in which nearly 3,000 Americans were murdered by Muslims who brought down the Twin Towers, attacked the Pentagon, and sought to obliterate the White House.
• The thousands of Muslim jihadist attacks around the world, going back decades and continuing to this day.
• The existence––here in America––of female genital mutilation (FGM) performed on four- and five-year-old girls, ostensibly to suppress their sexuality.
• The existence––here in America––of Honor Killings (i.e., murder) to punish Americanized Muslim high school girls who dare to date an American schoolmate.
• The relentless propaganda their children are exposed to, for instance a cartoon that depicts the Koranic story of Jews being turned into apes.
• And just the other day, a 27-year-old Muslim man who murdered his mother because she converted to Christianity.

Who can blame these Muslim women (and some husbands) for protesting and even yelling at the School Board members and even “threatening” to take their children out of school for contaminating their innocent children with what they define as racist misinformation against what even American presidents have called “the religion of peace”?

AND THEY ARE NOT ALONE

Right by the side of these inflamed Muslim women (and some husbands) are Black mothers (and some husbands) who are furious that CRT is determined to “teach” their children equally harmful things, such as:

• Why, after over 70 years of Blacks voting Democrat and supporting unions like radical Randi Weingarten’s American Federation of Teachers (AFT), their offspring are empirically, objectively, pitifully on the very bottom rung of educated children, that immigrants who come to this country––not even speaking English––routinely outperform the Black public-school victims of male ducation. And they are furious to hear that Ms. Weingarten tweeted support for an op-ed that said parents don’t have the right to shape their kids’ school curriculum!
• Why cities run by Democrats are consistently, over decades, the highest in crime, unemployment, and widespread government dependency instead of prideful independence.
• Why their “leaders” are so consistently anti-American and anti-Semitic racists like Louis Farrakhan,  Al Sharpton,  Jesse Jackson, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Rep.Cori Bush (D-MO), anddozens of others, including their racist icon, Barack Obama! Not to omit Joe Biden’s clear contempt for Blacks and Jews, the latter of which I have documented in articles entitled “Joe’s Jews,” “More About Joe and the Jews,” and “The Oldest Hatred Now Fulminates and Flourishes at 1600.”
• Why teachers don’t concentrate on Martin Luther King, Jr., Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, Jackie Robinson, Serena Williams, Quincy Jones, Justice Clarence Thomas, and other great black heroes and ground breakers, but instead make folk heroes out of Communist murderers like Cuba’s Che Guevara, career criminals like George Floyd, and anarchist destroyers like Antifa and Black Lives Matter, who do nothing but set cars on fire, smash storefront windows, engage in grand theft and petty larceny, assault innocent citizens, and contribute nothing!

BUT WAIT!

I left out the White parents who started what has now become a nationwide protest. The whole point of Critical Race Theory is to prove to innocent school children that the triple evils in America––the Constitution, Capitalism and Christianity––were all introduced by malevolent White men.

There may be Muslim or Black mothers (and some fathers) at these protests,but you can be sure that none of the above questions I’ve posed will ever be asked––or answered––in today’s left wing propaganda factories, aka public schools, precisely because these mothers are considered in the protected “victim” category.

What Critical Race Theory is really all about is destroying big, bad Whitey! Whether its tearing down statues or burning books or telling the children of 72 percent of our population that they were born evil racists and the products of generations of evil racists, the goal is to omit from the classroom the fact that the White men they are vilifying are the same White men who created the freest, richest, strongest, most generous nation in world history, the nation that multi millions of illegal aliens––at this very minute––sacrifice everything to come to and live in and experience the American Dream!

You know, the same White men who banished the curse of slavery, although admittedly other White men––all of them Democrats––also created the viciously racist Ku Klux Klan, the Jim Crow laws, and uniformly voted against the Civil Rights legislation in the mid-1960s.

Come to think of it, Critical Race Theory should be renamed Corrosive Racist Training and be described as a course in systemic Democrat racism and its disastrous effect on our country.

BETRAYAL!

Imagine how these protesting parents felt when they learned that Joe Biden’s pick of Attorney General, Merrick Garland, called these desperate mothers (and some fathers) “domestic terrorists” and ordered the Federal Bureau of Investigation to monitor them and punish them for exercising their Constitutional right to Free Speech and for the mortal sin of protesting peacefully!

Garland’s menacing directive to the FBI is what writer Justin O. Smith described as “a piece of real fascist garbage.”

Good to know that a government watchdog group has now launched an investigation of Garland for his threats against public school parents across America.

In addition, after grilling Garland in a Judiciary Committee meeting last week, a principled legislator, Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO), called for his resignation.

To add insult to injury, the parents then learned that Garland’s daughter is married to Alexander Tanner, the guy who co-founded––and is raking in multimillions of dollars from — Panorama, the company selling this racist junk to over 50 of the nation’s 100 largest school districts, or, as the company describes itself, as supporting “13 million students in 23,000 schools and 1,500 districts across 50 states.”

Talk about Garland’s conflict of interest!

Yet further evidence of the incestuous leftist push toward Communism that parents across the country are now protesting is provided by author and journalist Jack Cashill who reveals that a major essay for Panorama’s CRT “curriculum” was written by terrorist emeritus and Obama pal Bill Ayers!

PUSHBACK

This nationwide outrage of parents has been effective. As blogger Fred Miller documents, “It’s an encouraging sign that that the execrable National School Boards Association (NSBA) has blinked and apologized for joining Merrick Garland in villainizing anti-CRT parents as ‘terrorists.’

“Perhaps even awakened Democrat parents will be, in the long run, part of the most effective resistance we have against the Woke totalitarians. In the natural order of animals, vegetables &minerals, there is no more powerful force with which to reckon than angered Mama & Papa bears.”

The visceral anger of the separents is not only being expressed at School Board meetings across the country, but it has gone viral on social media.Even confirmed, lifelong leftists were horrified and disgusted when the far-left candidate for governor of Virginia, Terry McAuliffe, added his less-than-two-cents worth by stating: “I don’t think parents should be telling schools what they should teach”

Really? Here, Quisha King gets a standing ovation when she calls for a “mass exodus” from public schools.

HISTORICAL PRECEDENT

In 1982, in Lawrenceville, Georgia, Tony Cavallo was repairing a 1964 Chevrolet Impala when the vehicle fell off the jacks it was propped on and trapped him underneath. His mother Angela miraculously summoned up such Herculean strength that she was able to lift the car high enough and long enough for two neighbors to replace the jacks and pull Tony to safety.

There is actually a name for this kind of astounding display of superhuman strength––it’s called Hysterical Strength and it’s no surprise that it often involves mothers.

Why is that? It’s because bringing a child into the world––notwithstanding the creativity involved in law, medicine, architecture, astronomy, space travel, music, literature, art, gardening, et al––is the ultimate creative act. Nothing comes close.

Writer, editor, and international blogger Ruth S. King suggests the following: “Like other efforts which led to political victories, dissident parents should coalesce behind a new movement named My Child, My Choice!”

That’s exactly what is happening! Today, the mothers of America’s schoolchildren are now telling the powers-that-be that they will not allow their children to ingest the toxic, dishonest, racist brew of CRT.  They are telling the innovators of this theory, the teachers who purvey it, the Attorney General of the United States, the FBI, and the President of the United States: Don’t contaminate my child with your hateful, racist, anti-American, anti-White poison…. or else!

Maybe I don’t frequent the right journals, Internet sites, TV shows or radio stations, because all I’ve seen and read and heard since the 1960s is that the Arabs who call themselves “Palestinians” ––you know, those perpetual “victims” who have received literally billions––maybe trillions––in “aid” from America, have become famous for five or six things only:

• Strapping suicide bombs on three-year-olds to kill Jews,
• Building tunnels in which to store arms and bombs to kill Jews,
• Launching balloons of fire into Israel to kill Jews,
• Spreading lies and calumny through the craven mass and social media to vilify Jews,
• Cutting off the clitorises of 5-year-old girls,
• Conducting “honor killings” of their teenage daughters,

What I’ve never seen or read or heard is that the Arabs who call themselves “Palestinians” have done one single solitary thing to benefit mankind. Their singular obsession has been to annihilate the Big Satan, America, and the Little Satan, Israel.

LET’S TALK NUMBERS

Christianity and Islam are the two largest religions in the world, with 2.4 billion and 1.9 billion adherents respectively––literally half the people on our earth of about 7.8-billion people.

In stark contrast, Judaism is comprised of 15-million people, about eight million in Israel, about six million in the United States, and about one million scattered throughout the world.

To see the most vilified state in the entire world, look here at the infinitesimal red strip, surrounded by 300-millionArabs, once enemies until President Donald J. Trump succeeded for the first time in history in establishing the Abraham Accords which now find Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, et al, all at peace and doing business with Israel.

Israel is home to more than a million-and-a-half Arabs, a number of whom have been elected to the Knesset, Israel’s law-making legislature, and now an Arab Party has been elected to Israeli leadership. Nevertheless, those scary Jews are such a menace that here is how Israel’s surrounding states have practiced ethnic cleansing for decades.

But nothing compares to the long-and-besieged history of the Jews.

First, they were hunted down, marginalized, attacked, and ultimately murdered by the immensely powerful Assyrian, Babylonian, Greek and Roman empires, which significantly no longer exist––unlike the Jews who are still flourishing. Then:

• Centuries of expulsion from every country in which Jews tried to settle.
• Centuries of forced conversions, property confiscation, synagogue burnings, et al.
• Nineteen centuries of violent anti-Semitism, including the Inquisition, the Crusades, the pogroms, et al.
• Ongoing Jew hatred in the 20th century, including the catastrophic death of six-million Jews savagely murdered in the Holocaust.

Clearly, neither time nor education have dented the scourge of Jew hatred. The human species seems to have a need to hate, and the Jews are always the perfect targets for bullies who prey upon small targets, as well as the green-eyed fanatics who think that Jews are smarter and therefore more successful than they are and cannot help caving to their pathological jealousy.

EMOTION IS STRONGER THAN INTELLECT

Most people thought anti-Semitism had been relegated to the trash bin of history after Hitler and millions of his willing executioners from Germany, Poland, Austria, France, Belgium, Switzerland, et al—with savage premeditation—gassed to death six-million Jews in the 1930s and ‘40s.

But the sad truth is that the world’s hatred of God’s “Chosen People” simply went underground after the Holocaust, while racist parents continued to imbue their children with “the oldest hatred” and, sure enough, it has burst forth in all its hysterical ugliness in––of all places––the Democrat Congress of 2021.

Yet despite the actual pandemic of anti-Semitism, the Jews of the world have stayed laser-focused on their mission to improve the world, which goes back to the Bible up until this very day.

IF THE SHOE FITS….

If Jew haters weren’t such raving hypocrites, if they had a shred of integrity, of character, of true fidelity to their beliefs, they would never avail themselves of the following Jewish innovations:

Israeli inventions and discoveries, including astounding contributions in the fields of chemistry, physics, optics, medicine, economics, computing, defense, agriculture, et al.

WWW.VeryGoodNewsIsrael.blogspot.com, Michael Ordman’s comprehensive weekly update of Israel’s jaw-dropping innovations, breakthroughs, medical miracles.

Https://www.israel21c.org, listing Israel’s top 45 greatest inventions of all time,  including:

• Given Imaging (best known for PillCam), the gold standard for intestinal visualization,
• Netafim (smart drip and micro-irrigation),
• BabySense (to prevent crib deaths),
• MobileEye ((safer driving by detecting pedestrians, etc.),
• Intel Israel (revolutionized computers),
• Mazor Robotics’ Spine Assist and other surgical robots,
• WatchPAT ((for sleep apnea),
• EarlySense (continuous monitoring of vital signs, including alerts for falls and bedsore prevention); on and on.

Other incredible Israeli inventions include:

• ReWalk Robotics, which allows paraplegics to stand, walk, and climb stairs,
• Waze, the GPS- based travel app,
• EWA company’s technology to absorb the air’s humidity and condense it into drinkable water,
• Israel’s cows produce up to 10.5 tons of milk a year–10% more than North American cows and almost 50% more than Germany’s cows!
• Israel developed the cherry tomato,
• The Viber app allows you to make calls across the world for free, using Wifi, et al.

And looky here at the good fortune of one of the premier anti-Semites in American history, President Jimmy Carter, who was lucky enough to have his brain cancer cured by an Israeli drug.

And don’t miss: www.nocamels.com.

And let’s not forget IsraAID, a humanitarian-aid organization founded in 2001, which has rushed to emergencies––hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes, mudslides, building collapses, et al––in more than 50 countries and is in Haiti right now!

And not to omit this very short list of Jewish trailblazers, which pharmacist Meyer M. Treinkman compiled:

• Jonas Salk led the team which created a vaccine for polio.
• Dr Albert Bruce Sabin developed an oral polio vaccine.
• Paul Ehrlich discovered arsphenamine (Salvarsan) which cured syphilis
• Albert Ludwig Sigesmund Neisser discovered the causative agent (pathogen) of gonorrhea, as well as the bacteria which causes leprosy.
• Ludwig Traube developed Digitalis therapy for heart disease.
• Chemist Alfred Einhorn first synthesized Novocaine (Procaine) in 1905.
• Oskar Minkowsky identified the pancreas as the source of the control of blood sugar, which led to the discovery of insulin.
• Spiro and Ellege discovered Pyramidon and Antypyrin for the treatment of headaches.
• Professor Oscar Leibreich proposed the use of Chloral Hydrate for the treatment of convulsions.
• Sigmund Freud, a neurologist,was the father of psychoanalysis.
• Bela Schick invented the “Schick Test” for diphtheria, which eventually led to its eradication.
• Nobel Prize winner Robert Baram innovated treatment for ear and brain damage.
• Selman Abraham Waxman invented the wonder drug, Streptomycin, against tuberculosis.
• August Wasserman invented the Wasserman Test to test for syphilis.
• D. Casimir Funk discovered vitamins.

HEADS UP, JEW HATERS!

In 1995, Dear Abby reran a column in which the late comedian Sam Levenson said that “anti-Semitism could be hazardous to your health.” Levenson challenged Jew haters to boycott all the medicines and treatments Jews had discovered.

“Go on, boycott!” Levenson advised. “Humanitarian consistency requires my people offer all these gifts to all people of the world. Fanatic consistency requires that all bigots accept syphilis, diabetes, convulsions, malnutrition, as a matter of principle.

“You want to be mad?” he continued. “Be mad! But I’m telling you, you ain’t going to feel so good!”

In 1949, the trailblazing anti-racist musical “South Pacific”––created by composer Richard Rodgers and lyricist Oscar Hammerstein II––debuted on Broadway to wild critical acclaim, running for over five years in nearly 2,000 performances.

A particularly powerful and influential song from the musical, “You’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught,” carried the message that hatred does not arise spontaneously in the human species, but rather is inculcated––taught, sermonized, infused––by parents, teachers, coaches, political figures or other impassioned haters. Here are the still-relevant lyrics:

You’ve got to be taught to hate and fear,
You’ve got to be taught from year to year,
It’s got to be drummed in your dear little ear,
You’ve got to be carefully taught.

You’ve got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made,
And people whose skin is a different shade,
You’ve got to be carefully taught.

You’ve got to be taught before it’s too late,
Before you are six or seven or eight,
To hate all the people your relatives hate,
You’ve got to be carefully taught!

The show takes place on a South Pacific island during World War II, which make the lyrics relevant and understandable. This is why the world-famed composer (who was Jewish) and lyricist (whose father was Jewish) didn’t include the hatred for Jews that children have been taught for literally thousands of years.

CARRYING THE TORCH FOR THE OLDEST HATRED

When Americans see Joe Biden––or whomever is running the show for him and Kalamity––appointing a virtual Who’s Who of Jew- and Israel-haters to the highest positions in his regime, and promulgating policies specifically designed to destroy Israel, it is clear that all of these appointees, as well as Ole Joe and Kalamity themselves, were very “carefully taught.”

And when Americans see the growing number of elected anti-Semitic Democrat haters––Ihlan Omar (MN), Rashida Tlaib (MI), Ayanna Pressley (MA), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY), Cori Bush (MO), Jamaal Bowman (NY), the list gets longer every day––it is equally obvious that these DNA haters were very carefully taught and imbibed their toxic hatred with mother’s milk.

For a refresher, please see the documentation I’ve supplied of the alarmingly large number of vicious Jew haters and Israel loathers––the DNA anti-Semites––who Biden & Co. have put into the highest positions of the U.S. Government––look ‘em up!

• 2, 2021: Joe’s Jews
• April 13, 2021: More About Joe and the Jews
• May 29, 2021: The Oldest Hatred Now Fulminates and Flourishes at 1600

In the interests of space limitations, I share Dan O’Donnell’s exhaustive research into Joe Biden’s Six Decades of Racism, particularly when it comes to Blacks, and the Geller Report on how Biden has repeatedly betrayed Israel for the past many decades. No doubt this is why Vernon Jones, a Black Representative and lifelong Democrat from Georgia, called Biden “a full-blooded bigot.”

Some other articles for your reading list:

Again it is crystal clear that Biden and all his appointees and the Squalid Squad who follow the Democrat racist line were all “carefully taught!”

AN EERY ECHO

If you’ve either lived through or studied Nazi Germany in the 1930s and 1940s, it is clear that a resurgence of the same kind of Jew hatred is now rearing its head in 2021. Of course, it started thousands of years ago, but it reappeared dramatically in 2009, when the Race-Baiter-in-Chief, Barack Obama, utilized his community-organizer, rabble-rouser tactics in the Oval Office, fomenting racial divisiveness, fabricating conflicts where none existed, and using his bully pulpit––with the collaboration of the bought-and-paid-for leftwing media––to manufacture “hate” crimes that were once, quite accurately, considered indisputable criminal acts.

All of Obama’s fancy footwork depended on the gullibility of the American public and its desire to see the first Black president––okay, half-black-half lily white––succeed.

This magical thinking has been used before, for instance when the proponents of Socialism-cum-Communism ultimately realized that this tyrannical system of government failed horribly in every country it’s been practiced throughout history, but still fantasized that they can do it better.

Similarly and in spite of centuries of failures––even Hitler failed at extinguishing the Jews––the Jew haters think that they’ve finally figured out a way to rid the world of the people who make them green with envy because of their accomplishments and success and disproportionate contributions to the world.

In this century––largely as a result of global communication through the technology that puts fanatical haters in touch with each other––the Jew haters have made some disturbing inroads.

We now have a true pandemic of virulent anti-Semitism not only throughout the world but right here in America, including on most college and university campuses where massive Arab endowments have dictated anti-Semitic curricula and politics, which accounts for so many craven professors and administrators caving to the money and actually colluding with the Jew-hating students to vilify Jews and Israel.

Yes, in America, where the corrupt media turn a blind eye to the “carefully taught” racists and indefensibly ignore the innocent, often aged Jews who are attacked in the streets or have their synagogues lit on fire or are murdered in cold blood and thrown off a third-story balcony, as was 65-year-old retired doctor and mother and grandmother Sarah Halimi, in France.

But who does the degenerate media applaud?

• The “woke”-infatuated corporations,
• The paid-by-China national sports teams,
• The leftist media whores,
• Even the publishing industry…
• And the Jew-hating thugs from Black Lives Matter and Antifa––whose year-long riots have destroyed the cities of New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, on and on––all run horrifically by Democrats.

All of them carefully taught!

JOE’S RACISM

Again, because of space limitations, I will list some of the recent horrors that fall directly on the heads of Joe Biden and his racist handlers and appointees for both their promotion of Jew hatred and abject failure to condemn––and to stem––the tsunami of anti-Semitism now emblematic of his racist regime. This is a very small sample:

Biden funds Palestinian terrorists.
Biden to ‘prioritize’ ending Israeli demolitions of terrorists’ homes.
Biden’s Nominees’ Ties to Anti-Israel Group.

• Biden’s Jewish Foreign Policy Boss, Avril Haines, Calls for Anti-Israel DNC Platform.
• Biden actually considers reopening PLO offices while their affiliate glorifies its bloody terror attacks as “acts of heroism.”
• Biden actually considers “giving up the store to the murderous mullahs.”
• Biden’s new Israel Ambassador backed Muslim Brotherhood and cursed at Israeli officials.
• Biden Rescinds US Recognition of Israeli Sovereignty, Says Golan Isn’t Part of Israel.
• Biden freezes Trump’s Abraham Fund, established to strengthen Israeli-Arab ties.
• Biden Rushing To Reenter the Genocidal Iran Nuke Deal by August.
• Biden Small Business Administration (SBA) Pick Serves on the Board of Anti-Israel Group.

I rest my case.

WHY JEWS DRIVE THE HATERS CRAZY

Jews like me who know Jewish history also know that we have been through this before and not only prevailed but flourished, just as we will through this upheaval. Yet, the fight goes on with those “carefully taught” Jew haters who spend their days and nights and social occasions and professional time––even holidays––obsessing about those damn Jews.

How could it be, they wonder, that in a world of nearly eight-billion people, this miniscule people––only 15 million!––gain prominence in every country in which they land (even when they arrive with no money and not knowing the language), and inevitably manage to do amazing, world-changing things. For instance––again, this is the very very short list!

• Finance the American Revolution.
• Cure the scourge of polio.
• Invent the Intel computer chip.
• Develop the pacemaker.
• Found the GPS system WAZE.
• Found Google
• Deliver Insulin in a capsule.
• Enable paraplegics to walk.
• Help blind people to see.

Too many to name, too little space. Here’s another small taste: 10 Inventions by Jewish People that Changed the World and here: An Informal List of Jewish Inventions, Innovations and Radical Ideas.

These astounding contributions provide immense benefits to all those “carefully taught” Jew haters who have never figured out how to rid themselves and the world of the people who make them feel so bad about themselves, so inadequate, so un-chosen, so jealous!

HYPOCRISY ON STEROIDS

Strangely, it is liberal Jews, and there are many of them––read my article: Suicidal Jews––who vote for the Jew-hating Democrats and raise not one objection when these floridly racist politicians are thunderously silent as their colleagues spew their anti-Semitic bile and then proceed to enact policies that are viciously antagonistic to Israel, the most egregious being their fanatical mission to allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons…a state whose mullahs have declared for decades that their intention is to wipe Israel off the map and kill every last Jew in the world.

This is because the “values” leftist Jews and Democrat pols share override their interest in anti-Semitic American professors, violent Jew-hating racist groups like Black Lives Matter, or genocidal mullahs––values like saving the whales, the colossal hoax of global warming, and slaughtering infants in the womb right up to the moment of birth, ala New York Democrats, and equally if not more grotesque, infanticide after the baby has been born, ala the depraved Democrat Governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam.

These are the people who have been bleating “my body, my choice” for decades when it comes to abortion, while today they support the Biden regime’s call for mandatory injections of the experimental, non-FDA-approved, clinically controversial and even dangerous Covid-19 vaccines that stand for the opposite: my body––not my choice!

WHAT TO DO?

If you have a thought, an opinion, a grievance, or a disagreement with this or that policy emanating from the White House, take one minute––literally 60 seconds––to call:

The White House hotline: 1-855-948-2311.

Comments: 1-202-456-1111
Switchboard: 1-202-456-1414

Or send an e-mail to: Contact Us | The White House

You can do this every day! The White House accumulates Yes and No piles and often bases policies––or should––on the will of the American people.

*****

Here is a listing and map of what the U.S. Senate election will look like in 2022.

Here is a listing and map of what the U.S. House of Representatives election will look like in 2022.

Keeping in mind that the Democrat Party is now the official party of racism and hatred of Jews and Israel, it is imperative that you vote for whomever is running against a Democrat and whomever is running against Republicans in Name Only (RINOs), for instance Lisa Murkowski (AK), Liz Cheney (WY), Anthony Gonzalez (OH), Susan Collins (ME), Mitt Romney (UT), Pat Toomey (PA), et al.

And don’t send any of them a red cent!

*****

It is now clear that Jewish organizations which once strongly advocated for Jewish issues and fought anti-Semitism aggressively no longer do so unless they involve politically correct issues that won’t inspire the vindictive wrath––and financial support––of Jewish Democrats.

Writer Seth Mandel elaborates on the rot inside American-Jewish organizations, as well as the Jews who are complicit in Jew hatred.

Those organizations include, among others: the UJA-Federation; the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) whose head, Jonathan Greenblatt, is a former employee of George Soros, the Clintons, and Barack Obama; the American Jewish Committee (AJC); the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC); the Hillel chapters on college campuses and the Reform movement.

So don’t count on these organizations and don’t send them another dollar!

*****

Martin Niemöller, a German theologian and Lutheran pastor during Hitler’s reign of terror, is famous for words that resonate to this day:

“First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.”

It is not only Jews whose freedoms are threatened by the scourge of the racist regime now occupying the White House, it is every freedom-loving, non-racist American in this country––the vast majority! Never has the political action of We the People been more urgent. Time to act!

By Joan Swirsky

Democrat Jimmy Carter became the U.S. president in 1977, only 32 years after six-million Jewish men, women, children and infants were savagely starved, tortured, shot in cold blood, buried in mass graves and gassed to death by Hitler’s bloodthirsty Nazi regime in Germany and other East European countries.

Yet, the longtime Sunday school teacher could not control himself when it came to revealing his hatred of Jews and detestation of Israel––sentiments that ooze from his 96-year-old pores to this day.

This is who Democrats voted for. This is who Jewish Democrats voted for.

I thought that Carter would hold the all-time record for in-your-face anti-Semitism, but then along came Barack Obama, with his undisguised animus toward Israel and his appointment to influential positions of a huge number of career Jew haters and loathers of Israel. I listed all of them in my article “The Obama Voter––Not this Jew” (look it up).

As longtime journalist Ed Lasky of the American Thinker has written: “One seemingly consistent theme running throughout Barack Obama’s career is his comfort with aligning himself with people who are anti-Israel advocates.”

And, I would add, anti-American advocates!

This is who Democrats voted for. This is who Jewish Democrats voted for.

AS NIGHT FOLLOWS DAY

Right by Obama’s side for his entire eight years in office was VP Joe Biden, consistently endorsing, approving of and applauding his boss’s policies, including the Iran deal, which pretended to delay the world’s most malign terrorist state from acquiring nuclear weapons that the mullahs said then––and say today––are intended to eliminate the State of Israel.

But really no surprise. Ole Joe’s antipathy toward Israel goes way back. According to writer David Israel, in the summer of 1973, only months after he defeated a Republican incumbent to become the junior U.S. senator from Delaware, Biden visited the highest-ranking Egyptian officials and then––with treachery aforethought––delivered their disinformation to Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir.

“Biden told Meir that all the Egyptian VIPS affirmed Israel’s military superiority and assured him that it would be impossible for Egypt to go to war against Israel. “We all know how that turned out,” writer Israel reminds us, of the Yom Kippur War, with a decisive failure of U.S. Intelligence agencies (surprise, surprise!) and grave losses for our most reliable ally in the Middle East.

Ten years later, in June 1982, Senator Joe Biden banged the desk in front of him with his fist at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee meeting and threatened then-Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin with cutting off aid to Israel.

Begin forcefully responded: “Don’t threaten us with cutting off your aid. It will not work. I am not a Jew with trembling knees. I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid.”

In 2015, on the occasion of Israel’s 67^th birthday, then-VP Joe Biden said the following: “…I’ve had the great privilege of knowing every Israeli Prime Minister since Golda Meir and more than just casually. And I’ve worked with many of you in this room for up to 40 years. You know me. You raised me. You educated me. And I know you.”

As journalist David Israel wrote: “And we know you, too, President Joe Biden. And as you put it in 1973, we have no delusions.”

And just the other day, on April 8^th, Holocaust Remembrance Day––the day that commemorates the six-million Jews who perished in the Holocaust––the Biden regime released its push for gun confiscation, red-flag laws, and the end of the 2^nd Amendment.

“So that very day,” writer Steven Neill points out, “we remembered the deaths of six-million Jews at the hands of a tyrannical government and at the same time [Biden’s] government is going full Nazi!”

And in keeping with their vicious antagonism toward Jews and Israel, Joe Biden’s Democrat-run House Foreign Affairs Committee released a Yom HaShoah statement that omitted reference to the six-million Jews killed in the Holocaust and spelled Holocaust with a lowercase H.

Yet again, this is who Democrats voted for. This is who Jewish Democrats voted for.

RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX

Less than two weeks after his inauguration on January 20^th, 2021, ole Joe immediately made key appointments of longtime Jew- and Israel-loathers. Here is a synopsis of those early appointments from my recent article, “Joe’s Jews”:

MAHER BITAR for Senior Director for Intelligence of the National Security Council (NSC)…according to Daniel Greenfield, an aggressive anti-Israel activist and Boycott/Divest/Sanction (BDS) supporter who has called for the destruction of Israel.

ANTHONY BLINKEN for Secretary of State…he has praised radical anti-Israel J Street as a ‘constructive force,’” and opposed designating the terrorist Iranian IRGC as a foreign terror organization.

KRISTEN CLARKE as head of the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice. Paul Miller, executive director of the Haym Salomon Center, documents that Clarke “has a troubling history of advocating for anti-Semites and representing anti-Semitic lies as ‘fact.’”

REEMA DODIN for Deputy Director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs. According to the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), Dodin’s background as a Palestinian propagandist and supporter of suicide bombings is so egregious that she should be fired on the spot. Dodin also organized anti-Israel rallies at UC Berkeley, and has spread Medieval-style blood libels…

AVRIL HAINES for Director of National Intelligence. Described as being rabidly anti-Israel…last May she signed a vicious J Street letter with 30 notoriously Israel-loathing former foreign-policy officials calling on the Democrat Party to oppose Israel’s lawful rights in Judea and Samaria.

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE for White House Press Secretary. The former head of MoveOn.org, a far-left anti-Israel group, she has praised lawmakers for boycotting pro-Israel groups and has accused Israel of “war crimes.”

JOHN KERRY as Envoy for Climate. Adam Berkowitz has written that “even the Israeli leftist newspaper Haaretz is appalled by John Kerry’s…utter capitulation to Hamas.” And Joseph Klein has written of Kerry’s farewell stab at Israel when he was Secretary of State under Obama.

ALEJANDRO MAYORKAS for Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, is a board member of HIAS, which partners with terrorism-financier Islamic Relief. He has undermined Israeli repatriation policies…and signed a letter defending and praising Jew-basher Linda Sarsour.

DENIS McDONOUGH for Secretary of the Veterans Administration. He has spoken at the anti-Israel J Street convention and falsely condemned Israel’s “occupation.”

SUSAN RICE for Domestic Policy Advisor (aka Biden’s Valerie Jarrett). The serial liar and inveterate Israel basher was Obama’s senior foreign-policy advisor and also John Kerry’s chief foreign-policy adviser when he ran for President.

WENDY SHERMAN for Deputy Secretary of State. Sherman negotiated the disastrous Iran deal. Again, ZOA spokesmen spell out Sherman’s threat to Israel of consequences from the United Nations (aka the virulently anti-Israel cesspool in NY City) if Israel did not accept a Palestinian (terror) state.

KEEPING UP THE DRUMBEAT

Since then, Biden has expanded his anti-Israel appointments and policies significantly. Clearly, whoever is running the show behind the armed camp at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue believes that nothing is more important than undermining, sabotaging, and “getting” the Jews and Israel.

Space limitations prevent me from elaborating at length, but here are the cold hard facts of some but not all of the Jew-and-Israel-detesting people Biden has appointed in just the past four or five weeks.

HADY AMR for Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs, to be in charge, as Daniel Greenfield spells out, of setting the Biden administration’s policy on Israel––the perfect pick given his former praise for the “Palestinian” intifada and former role as a Fellow of the Brookings’ Doha Center for Qatar, a “tiny Islamic tyranny allied with Iran, Al Qaeda, and the Muslim Brotherhood…and a backer of Hamas.”

PETE BUTTIGIEG for Secretary of Transportation, the guy who now threatens to cut aid to Israel. As Greenfield explains, he is being advised by close associates of Obama and Soros, hence his wholehearted entrance into the anti-Israel echo chamber.

DEB HAALAND (D-NM) for Secretary of the Interior. In June 2020, she signed a vicious letter––along with anti-Semites Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY), and Democrat Betty McCollum (MN), et al––falsely accusing Israelis of violence against the people who call themselves Palestinians.

COLIN KAHL for Undersecretary of Defense. According to ZOA President Morton A. Klein and Chair Mark Levenson, Esq. Kahl has a dismal record of advocating pro-Iranian regime positions, opposing Iran sanctions, advancing an anti-Israel resolution at the U.N, holding anti-Israel positions, and promoting anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.

ROBERT MALLEY for U.S. Special Envoy on Iran. Malley has a long and alarming record of anti-Israel hostility and appeasement of Iran, Hamas, the PLO, Yasser Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and Syria.

BETTY McCOLLUM, Democrat Representative from Minnesota, for the Chair of the House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee. The vocal anti-Israel lawmaker spews anti-Semitic tropes and aggressively supports cutting aid to Israel.

DENIS McDONOUGH for Secretary of Veterans Affairs). According to the ZOA, while serving as Obama’s chief-of-staff he gave a harsh, anti-Israel keynote speech at the anti-Israel group J Street’s convention and falsely and maliciously called Israel’s presence on historic Jewish lands guaranteed to the Jewish people under international law an “occupation of ‘Palestinian’ land.”

ERIN PELTON for Special Assistant to Biden and a Senior Adviser on Domestic Policy. She is a former lobbyist for Qatar, which has close ties to Iran, is a central hub for terrorism financing, and is also suspected of funding Hezbollah.

SAMANTHA POWER for head of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Obama’s U.S. ambassador to the United Nations has, according to the ZOA, an  “abominable anti-American, anti-Israel, pro-Iran record”… [and a] history of anti-Israel statements and actions….Power indeed uses the mantra of ‘human rights’ to condemn and damage human rights-loving countries, especially the U.S. and Israel, and to instead support murderous hateful regimes.”

JEN PSAKI, White House Press Secretary, As a State Dept. spokesperson during the Obama-Biden regime, she questioned Israel’s commitment to peace, defended the U.S. working with the Hamas-Fatah-Palestinian Authority “unity” government while Hamas’ charter calls for Israel’s annihilation and murdering every Jew in existence, and was incapable of saying yes when asked if Israel was an important ally of the U.S.

SYMONE SANDERS for Senior Advisor and Chief Spokesperson to the Vice President, a woman who gave a free pass to avowed Jew-hater Linda Sarsour after Sarsour’s violence-inciting statements, such as notorious tweet that throwing rocks at Israelis is “the definition of courage.”

UZRA ZEYA, who has a long record of denouncing the “Israel lobby,” according to journalist Hugh Fitzgerald, as well as her full supporting of the despotic and corrupt regimes of Hamas in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority in Judea  and Samaria, and promoting claims about Jewish media control and dual loyalty to Israel.

Once again, this is who Democrats voted for. This is who Jewish Democrats voted for.

BIDEN’S JEW-HATING POLICIES

Biden erasing Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

Biden unveils a policy honoring Osama bin Laden’s old friend Khashoggi who hates Jews and America.

Biden to restart “Palestinian” payments to terrorists and their families.

In an act of stunning rudeness and blatant hostility, Biden consciously refuses to call Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu for well over a month since his oath of office.

In February, Politico exposed a U.S. State Department official in the Biden Administration, Fritz Berggren, for operating a website on which he refers to Jews as “the seed of the serpent” and a “brood of vipers.” To date, no word of sanctions or firing of Berggren.

While Iranian-backed Iraqi militias were likely behind a deadly rocket barrage on a U.S.-led coalition base in northern Iraq in February, that didn’t stop Biden from releasing $3 billion in Iranian funds that have been frozen in Iraq, Oman and South Korea due to Washington’s sanctions. According to Rabbi Yaacov Menken, managing director of the Coalition for Jewish values, this funding violates the Taylor Force Act––signed by President Trump in 2018––which stops U.S. aid to the PA until it stops paying stipends to martyred terrorists. Every global terror organization is delighted to see President Biden in power,” Menken added.

Just as the Obama-Biden regime was infamous for leaking intelligence information that was horribly damaging to Israel, the Biden regime is already doing the same, leaking “to The New York Times that Israel attacked an Iranian ship in the Red Sea.”

Biden now intends to reinstate funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) — hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars a year for an agency that teaches “Palestinian” children to hate “the Enemy” Israel and believe “Jihad is the road of glory.”

The ZOA’s recent report on the U.S. State Department concluded, not surprisingly,  that it “is strongly biased against the Jewish State of Israel, relies on falsehoods from anti-Israel and terror-connected Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and others, and resumed using the inaccurate term “occupied” to refer to the ‘West Bank,’ Gaza Strip, Golan Heights, and eastern Jerusalem. The Trump administration had correctly and appropriately dropped the inaccurate term “occupied.”

Joe Biden: “Jewish settlements are illegal”
Bernie Sanders: “Jewish settlements are illegal”
Elizabeth Warren: “Jewish settlements are illegal”
Pete Buttigieg: “Jewish settlements are illegal”
Illhan Omar: “Jewish settlements are illegal”
Rashida Tlaib: “Jewish settlements are illegal”
Jimmy Carter: “Jewish settlements are illegal”
Barack Obama: “Jewish settlements are illegal”
Jeremy Corbyn: “Jewish settlements are illegal”

Donald Trump: “No they aren’t. Jews have the right to live anywhere they choose”

American Jews: “Trump is an antisemite”

Once again, this is who Democrats voted for. This is who Jewish Democrats voted for.

How could that be? What kind of psychopathology drives people to support a political candidate whose worldview and political philosophy wishes them dead? As Eileen Toplansky sagely asks: “American Jewry–– when will you wake up?”

By Joan Swirsky

If this title rings a bell, it’s because it’s so similar to the title of an article I wrote exactly a year ago this month, when presidential candidate Joe Biden––visibly compromised by clear signs of cognitive failure if not downright dementia––was being sequestered in his dimly-lit basement, surrounded by leftist toadies cranking out his occasional telepromptered statements, and guarded by wife Jill, who never failed to answer questions posed to him, finish his sentences, or whisk him away from the cameras.

A STARK CONTRAST

In that article, I mentioned that my husband Steve had recently had a bad cold and that I had plied him with tea and honey and chicken soup (aka Jewish penicillin), and even insisted he try a folk remedy I was told was very effective and proved to be––smearing Vicks VapoRub on the bottoms of his feet (with socks over them) at nighttime, the better to wake up with clear nasal passages and lungs.

This is exactly what takes place millions of times a day not only across the United States but the entire world––women taking care of their husbands or partners, doing everything possible to protect them from harm or hurt.

INITIALLY GIVING JILL THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT

No doubt, that was Jill Biden’s intention when she married the senator from Delaware in 1977, and raised not only the daughter they had together, but his young sons, Beau and Hunter, after the senator’s first wife and baby daughter were killed in a horrific car accident in 1972.

As the years elapsed, Senator Biden became Vice President Biden––for eight years––and the power couple Jill and Joe gained worldwide fame and huge wealth.

But before that, Jill juggled raising their three children with earning a doctoral degree in education and then teaching for years in a psychiatric hospital where her students were emotionally disturbed children and adolescents.

Surely, in both her education and clinical work, she was aware of, sensitive to, knowledgeable about––and protective of––the students whose limitations rendered them incapable of higher function. Surely she became capable of detecting, even diagnosing, thought and speech disorders, dissociative thinking, and incoherent ramblings.

The following examples during Joe Biden’s campaign were sad to witness and raised the very serious question: What is wrong with Jill Biden?

• A Half-Sedated Looking Joe Biden Devolves Into Incoherence on The View
• Biden on Coronavirus: “We Have to Take Care of the Cure–That Will Make the Problem Worse No Matter What”
• Joe Biden’s Sexual Assault Accuser Breaks Silence With Graphic Allegations

That was then. But as with all deteriorating conditions, things have now gotten worse. Right up to––and beyond––the election on November 3, 2020, ole Joe:

• Told an audience he was running for the Senate.
• Asked, during a speech, “What am I doing here?”
• Referred to Doug Emhoff as “Kamala [Harris’s] wife.”
• Called the Wuhan virus the ‘Luhan virus’ and Covid-19 Covid-9.
• Said that 200 million Americans died of COVID-19 ––approximately two-thirds of our country’s population.
• And just the other day, referred to Kamala Harris as President Harris!!!

Yoohoo, Jill!

WHERE DID THAT INSIGHT GO?

Why has Jill’s understanding, empathy, take-charge persona been missing in action when it came to protecting her clearly diminished husband from the slings and arrows of a brutal presidential contest? If Joe and Jill Biden were sitting in the office of any neurologist in America, the doctor would immediately put the candidate and now putative president on medication to alleviate his florid symptoms. (Actually, I suspect that has already been done for well over a year now, if not longer).

THE RELIGIOUS CARD

The Biden’s claim they are practicing Catholics. Jill certainly must have taken her wedding vows seriously: “I, Jill Stevenson, take thee, Joseph Biden, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part…”

The cherish pledge is believable, but what happened to the “in sickness and in health” vow? Did Jill Biden really believe that it meant to “support” her clinically compromised husband in continuing the painful process of slogging it out till the November election by propping him up, ignoring the increasingly glazed and vacant look in his eyes, and witnessing his slow devolution?

Did she believe her role was to plaster on a perpetual Cheshire Cat smile before a media that collaborated with her in the “everything is great” deception, rescuing her husband when appropriate behavior failed him, and pretending that his disjointed, confused, indeed bizarre utterances somehow, magically, made sense?

Before the election and to this very day, every Joe Biden appearance has been the Emperor’s New Clothes, with the entire Democrat establishment––including CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, the NY Times, the Washington Post, et al––going along with this pitiful charade, while ignoring the fact that the American people they hold in such contempt have eyes and ears!

WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON?

Jill Biden is now 69 and she and Joe are the very wealthy owners of several lavish homes and, as we know, many other sources of affluence.

By appearances, I’m guessing that Jill is also quite healthy. That is why it stretches the imagination that either she or her 78-year-old husband––who has now clearly entered the doddering stage––really wanted to spend the next four years of their lives glad-handing foreign potentates, fielding the conflicting and contentious demands of the American electorate, or generally weathering the unforgiving spotlight aimed relentlessly at the highest office in the land.

Now that the Bidens are, for the most part, secluded, isolated, essentially quarantined in the White House behind barbed-wire fencing and a preposterous military presence, the occasional sighting of Mr. Biden––like his peculiarly bug-eyed, robotic speech the other night––shows a joyless, expressionless, programmed chief executive whose only function seems to be staying vertical long enough to actualize Barack Obama’s radical agenda. The over-40 Executive Orders he has signed since the inauguration on January 20^th were clearly prepared by Obama’s functionaries, most of whom have been appointed to positions of power in the Biden White House, State Department, et al.

Speaking of which, I believe that Joe Biden was selected as Barack Obama’s VP because of the inherent malleability and weakness he has displayed in nearly 50 years on the public stage. The powers-that-be who orchestrated his “election” had no doubt that they could plant any idea, policy, pet project, or corrupt scheme in Joe’s ear and trust that he would follow through unquestioningly. This trust, of course, was based on Joe’s long history of echoing––actually stealing––the words of other people described in a damning series of plagiarism scandals, as well as carrying out, in his own words, menacing threats leveled to the powers-that-be in Ukraine that resulted in the result he and Obama wanted.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR JILL?

I suspect that the powers-that-be, among them brainiacs like David Axelrod, Valerie Jarrett, and especially George Soros––who appears through his massive contributions to own the Democrat Party, the Democratic National Committee, most if not all Democrat fund-raising committees, and the leftist media––got together and decided to back Joe Biden because they knew with absolute surety they could control him once in office.

And during the campaign, when it became clear to them––as it did to the rest of America and to the world––that a faltering Joe Biden would be lucky to make it over the finish line,they simply whispered in Jill’s ear:

• Stay in the game.
• We’ve rigged the election with mail-in voting––and the help of China––so it will work this time.
• We’ll take care of the judiciary––right up to the Supreme Court––so Joe (and you) are not indicted for the two massive money laundering and bribery schemes he pulled off in the Ukraine, and the other scam that helped Joe, his brother, his son Hunter, Obama and so many of his cronies make billions off China trade deals and regulatory policies, on and on.
• We’ll run the country just as we did for Obama, this time with Susan Rice or some other functionary we choose at the helm.
• Just smile and fake it till you make it to November!

Joe may never have heard these tacit threats, but if my theory is correct, you can bet that Jill heard them loud and clear and “got” the message 100%!

THE KAMALA FACTOR

That message must have nursemaid Jill running scared and contemplating with horror handing over her authority and power to a woman only a handful of people ever heard of until last year.

Whoever is running the Joe Biden show behind the scenes, it is clear that he or she or they had a hand in manipulating the first African-American woman, Kamala Harris, into the Vice Presidency-cum-Presidency of the United States of America. She whose mother is a native of India and her father Jamaican and a Marxist economics professor at Stanford University in Palo Alto, CA––neither of them descended from Africa!

But no matter. To Democrats, who are preoccupied with race, gender and the lifelong-victim card, narrative is all––qualifications not so much.

But… mmm… now that we know of the close professional ties of Kamala’s husband to the Chinese Communist Party, maybe it wasn’t the color-gender thing that got her chosen for the VP position at all.And maybe it isn’t Obama, who most people surmise is running the show, who orchestrated this fiasco.

After reading this stunning article by esteemed author and journalist Jack Cashill, I have to agree that it is not Obama who is pulling the strings of the Biden regime.

“Although clearly immersed in leftism since childhood, even Marxism,” Cashill writes, “[Obama] never left the shallow end of the pool. As president, he proved so adept at breaking promises because he did not care deeply enough to ensure those promises were realized. What mattered more was that he be seen striking the right pose, finding the right groove, spinning the right narrative.Obama is not a serious man. Never was.”

Cashill doesn’t offer a theory of who is running the show, but my guess is that Susan Rice, Obama’s Ambassador to the U.N. and U.S. National Security Advisor, is in the running––she who is worthy of an Oscar for her spectacular talent in embodying none of the qualities of sincerity, forthrightness and integrity!

WHAT ARE WE REALLY LOOKING AT?

We’re looking at “open Marxists on the verge of a complete takeover of the Democratic Party, writes Cliff Kincaid, journalist, author and director of the Center for Investigative Journalism of Accuracy in Media.

“Bolshevik Bernie Sanders,” Kincaid continues, “the lone Senate member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, is poised to take over the Democratic Party, after his supporters and sympathizers engineer the ouster of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and President Joe Biden.”

Kincaid says that “The Congressional Progressive Caucus, a Marxist-oriented group close to The Democratic Socialists of America…includes nearly 100 members of the Democratic Party in Congress. This group is driving the Marxist agenda of Biden/Harris. It claims 234 chapters around the country, one chapter in Washington, D.C., perhaps a future state, and it grew by 500 percent in one year.”

If things go their way, they will implant their own socialist-Communist-Marxist candidates of choice through their typically honest elections, and by so doing take huge leaps toward their goal of “fundamentally transforming” America into the kind of totalitarian state they so admire. With the help, of course––already rendered––of Big Tech, the leftist media whores, academia, the [lack of] entertainment industry, the courts, et al.

But how could this be? In my decades of observing the behavior of all of the above species, it is clear that the list of those who can be bribed and threatened is endless!

Where does all this leave Jill? Certainly in a less secure place in history than Edith Wilson, whose husband Woodrow was POTUS from 1915 to 1921. Interestingly, like Jill Biden, Edith was the president’s second wife. Yet more interesting is that she literally ran the county after her husband’s stroke in 1919, whereas at this point Jill seems busy running interference for her hapless, devolving husband.

WHERE DOES THIS LEAVE US?

Conservatives like me have two things in common. The first is that we look at the Big Picture, meaning a broad historical perspective. Today, there are between 75-million to eighty-million people who voted for Donald Trump and know American history––unlike today’s “woke” generation––and appreciate that we have been through bigger battles and prevailed.

Americans with grit, courage, and love for our country have been through the American Revolution, the Civil War, World War I, the Great Depression, World War II, an epic Civil Rights revolution, September 11^th, 2001, and eight years of Obama treachery––and emerged victorious!

Yes, there are problems to solve, all of which emanate from the de facto assisted-living facility at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue:

• An open southern border which has been breached by hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens in drug cartels and others who have tested positive for Covid-19,
• The shutdown of the Keystone Pipeline, leading to the loss of thousands of jobs.
• The suppression of an investigation into the highly suspicious if not rigged 2020 presidential vote,
• The imposition of more Draconian restrictions to stem the colossal hoax of global warming,
• “Experts” looking at novel ways to deprive America’s children of yet another year of normal life and school attendance,
• The resurrection of the deadly nuclear deal with the arch terrorist state in the world, Iran,
• The attempt to rig all future elections in the U.S. to gain Democrat victories,
• The resistance to holding Anthony Fauci accountable for the countless wrong calls he has made over the past year,
• The refusal to indict (and imprison) the thugs, criminals and anarchists from Antifa and Black Lives Matter for their year-long crime spree, on and on.

Inducting Jill Biden into a National Hall of Shame for the elder abuse of her failing husband may seem to pale in light of the above problems, but there are prison cells all over our country holding those convicted of this crime. What she is doing is cruel and inhuman, plain and simple.

The second thing conservatives like me have in common is an indomitable sense of optimism, which is why we are so confident not only that these problems will be solved but that conservatism itself will return to our country with a mighty roar.

Quick question: What is most fanatical terrorist state in the world?

Quick answer: According to a 2017 report––the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism is Iran.

I go back to 2017 to remind readers that this report was issued by the new Trump Administration’s State Department and that it departed radically from the assessment of Barack Obama’s State Department and the previous eight years of the Obama regime’s starry-eyed infatuation with that terrorist state, to the degree that both Barack Obama and then-VP Joe Biden were enthusiastic co-architects of the Iran deal (aka the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action).

The Obama-Biden deal offered the mullahs relief from sanctions and mountains of money in exchange for their oh-so-trustworthy promise to use the nuclear weapons they were developing exclusively for peaceful purposes.

And yet, after the deal was signed on July 14, 2015––significantly, and I believe purposefully, during the three-week mourning period that Jews observe every year for the destruction of the Holy Temples in Jerusalem––and after Obama-Biden gave Iran $150 billion, and then another $1.3 billion!, Iran’s hostilities substantially increased in terror sprees in Yemen, Syria, Lebanon, Afghanistan and Iraq.

And that is not to omit Iran’s bountiful sponsorship of terrorist groups including Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, and other Palestinian groups like Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, in addition to their murderous militias of terrorism against U.S. troops.

But to me, all that pales in comparison to the oft-repeated statements of the mullahs of Iran––including Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei––who have been calling Israel a “cancerous tumor” and threatening to “wipe Israel off the map” for decades now.

Significantly, German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government has declared that Iran’s call to obliterate the State of Israel is not an expression of antisemitism but simply “anti-Israel rhetoric.” Coming from Germany, never has the expression “consider the source” been more apt!

It is important to remember that during his infamous basement campaign, candidate Biden said that his “top priority” was to reenter the genocidal-to-Israel Iran Deal.

This is what Democrats voted for. This is what Jewish Democrats voted for.

OBAMA REDUX

Let’s look at the appointments and proposed appointments, so far, of the Biden-Harris regime.

MAHER BITAR for Senior Director for Intelligence of the National Security Council (NSC). According to the esteemed Daniel Greenfield, Biden has put an aggressive anti-Israel activist and Boycott/Divest/Sanction (BDS) supporter––who has called for the destruction of Israel––in this powerful position. At a conference in Georgetown of the Palestine Solidarity Movement––a BDS anti-Israel hate group––Bitar lectured on how to best demonize Israel. “Bitar’s rise through the ranks,” writes Greenfield, “speaks to the abandonment of Israel by the Democrats and the ineptitude of pro-Israel advocates at fighting the personnel battles that define the government.”

ANTHONY BLINKEN, who is Jewish, for Secretary of State. According to the Zionist Organization of America  (ZOA), “after notorious Jew-hater and BDS promoter Linda Sarsour spoke at the Democratic National Convention,” a Biden staffer “mollified” the outraged Jewish community by stating that Biden “condemns [Sarsour’s] views and opposes BDS…” But “Blinken and other top Biden staffers quickly apologized profusely to Sarsour! He also praised radical anti-Israel J Street as a ‘constructive force,” and opposed designating the terrorist Iranian IRGC as a foreign terror organization.

KRISTEN CLARKE to head the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice.Paul Miller, executive director of the Haym Salomon Center, documents that Clarke “has a troubling history of advocating for anti-Semites and representing anti-Semitic lies as ‘fact.’” In one of many examples, Miller cites that as the head of Harvard’s Black Students Association, Clarke endorsed and supported Tony Martin, a staunch anti-Semite and Holocaust denier who wrote a book called The Jewish Onslaught in which he attacked Judaism and the Jewish people. Clarke said he based his opinions on indisputable fact.”

REEMA DODIN for Deputy Director of the White House Office of Legislative Affairs. According to the ZOA, Dodin’s background as a Palestinian propagandist and supporter of suicide bombings is so egregious that she should be fired on the spot. Dodin also organized anti-Israel rallies at UC Berkeley; spread Medieval-style blood libels, including the false claim that Israel denies Palestinian Arabs food, water, and medical treatment, et al. She was also a leader of the Hamas-affiliated Muslim Students Association and has close ties to the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR).

AVRIL HAINES, who is Jewish, for Director of National Intelligence. Described as being rabidly anti-Israel, Haines was Obama’s deputy national security adviser and deputy director of the CIA and is now the deputy director of Obama’s Columbia World Project which attracts huge donations from foreign sources, many of them openly anti-Israel. Last May, she signed a vicious J Street letter with 30 notoriously Israel-loathing former foreign-policy officials calling on the Democrat Party to oppose Israel’s lawful rights in Judea and Samaria, et al.

JOHN KERRY, who has Jewish roots, as Envoy for Climate. With personal connections to Iran, Kerry has been accused of “nuclear nepotism.” Adam Berkowitz has written that “even the Israeli leftist newspaper Haaretz is appalled by John Kerry’s bungled, counterproductive, utter capitulation to Hamas.” And Joseph Klein has written of Kerry’s farewell stab at Israel when he was Secretary of State under Obama.

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE for White House Press Secretary. The former head of MoveOn.org, a far-left anti-Israel group, and recent campaign adviser for Kalamity Harris, Jean-Pierre has praised lawmakers for boycotting pro-Israel groups and has accused Israel of “war crimes.” And during the Democratic primary, she celebrated Democrats who boycotted the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)––a lobbying group that advocates pro-Israel policies to Congress.

ALEJANDRO MAYORKAS, who is Jewish, for Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. Mayorkas is a board member of HIAS, which partners with terrorism-financier Islamic Relief. He has undermined Israeli repatriation policies regarding illegal immigrants and signed a letter defending and praising Jew-basher Linda Sarsour. Mayorkas’ involvement with HIAS contradicts the role of DHS, which is to protect the safety of Americans.

DENIS McDONOUGH for Secretary of the Veterans Administration. The former Chief of Staff for Obama, McDonough spoke at the anti-Israel J Street convention and falsely condemned Israel’s “occupation.” As Obama’s Deputy National Security Advisor, he praised the iman of a Virginia mosque, knowing that the imam was a Muslim Brotherhood leader and VP of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), which directly funds Hamas.

SUSAN RICE for Domestic Policy Advisor (aka Biden’s Valerie Jarrett). The serial liar and inveterate Israel basher was Obama’s senior foreign- policy advisor and also John Kerry’s chief foreign-policy adviser when he ran for President. Kerry’s idea for dealing with the Middle East was to appoint not one but two diehard enemies of Israel––James Baker and Jimmy Carter–as negotiators. Faced with a firestorm of criticism, Kerry backed down and blamed his staff, which consisted of Susan Rice!

WENDY SHERMAN, who is Jewish, for Deputy Secretary of State. Sherman negotiated the disastrous Iran deal. An Amazon reviewer summed up Sherman’s 2018 book as follows: “A weak apologia from someone who mishandled every major negotiation she worked on.” Again, ZOA spokesmen spell out Sherman’s threat to Israel of consequences from the United Nations (aka the virulently anti-Israel cesspool in NY City)if Israel did not accept a Palestinian [terror] state; she praised arch-terrorist Yasir Arafat as “the leader of the resistance movement” and downplayed the PLO suicide bombings and other terror attacks on innocent Israelis that Arafat engineered; on and on.

Unfortunately, because of space limitations, this is the short list!But you can see some of Biden’s other Jew-hating, Israel-loathing appointments here.

This is what Democrats voted for. This is what Jewish Democrats voted for.

BIDEN’S COURT JEWS

But we love Jews and we love Israel, Democrats––including Jewish Democrats––exclaim! After all, they say, Joe’s children married Jews so he has Jewish grandchildren, and Kalamity Harris is married to a Jew, and look how many Jews Joe has appointed so far! All true, but what they fail to mention is that Joe’s Jews have a particularly poisonous antipathy to Israel––a condition unmistakably and accurately identified as antisemitism!

Make no mistake, Biden’s Court Jews, like Obama’s, are identical to those of the past––going back centuries––who financed, supported, licked the boots of and sold out the Jewish people in order to gain the personal influence, privileges, wealth, proximity to power, and protection that the “nobles” afforded them.

These quislings helped Roman emperors and other leaders over centuries kill Jews. They helped Hitler kill Jews. But after their groveling and traitorous service, they were blamed for economic downturns and used as scapegoats to explain away the failures of the evil regimes and leaders they abetted.

Journalist Melanie Phillips once wrote of Obama that he “is attempting to throw Israel under the Islamist bus, and he’s getting American Jews to do his dirty work for him…” Looks suspiciously identical to what Biden & Co. have already begun with his appointments of people who clearly hate Jews and loathe Israel.

Writer Mona Charen once wrote of Obama’s “genocidal hostility toward Israel.” Is there any difference today?

MAKING SENSE OF THE NONSENSICAL

Why would people who hate Jews surround themselves with so many of them? As Don Vito Corleone warned his son Michael, “Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.”

As much as the enemies of Jews hate them, they also fear them. They can’t figure out how a historically besieged people—whose population today is about 15 million, as compared to, say, Muslims whose population is 1.3 billion, or a world of almost eight billion—have not only managed to survive the Inquisition, Crusades., pogroms,concentration camps and pandemics of anti-Semitism, but to flourish and rise to the top echelons of any community they’ve ever lived in.

In short, they want the brains of the Jews and also the ability to blame them when things go wrong!

But don’t these smart Jews know they’re being used? Yes and no. They’ve studied history, but they think that the passage of time has made them immune from mistakes of the past. Of course they’re wrong. Fools and dupes always get fooled and duped.

Unfortunately, too many Jews over the ages have been seduced by the hope-and-change rhetoric of the Left, so yearning are they to be “liked” by the cultures that have ultimately rejected them.

Today, we can only guess that the Democrats––including the Jewish Democrats––who voted for Biden and literally wept for joy at his inauguration, are simply crazy about everything he promised, including (this is the very very short list):

• High taxes that inevitably lead to massive unemployment,
• A decidedly weakened military,
• Bad-for-America trade deals,
• Bad-for-Israel policies,
• The end to energy independence (already done),
• The obliteration of women’s sports (already done).
• Aha! Abortion… a virtual sacrament of the Left!

Or maybe they simply hated hated hated the highest employment of blacks and Asians and Hispanics and women in American history brought about by President Donald J. Trump.

No matter. History has taught us, as the Jewish prophet Hosea said: “They who sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.”

The Biden whirlwind is here. It’s just a matter of time before all the horror and destruction of his regime is fully realized––and blamed on the Jews!

Plus ça change, plus la même chose.

Time to get out the ledger.

On the left––literally––we have had nearly eight months of rampaging criminality and violence in the many Democrat-controlled cities in our country, all conducted by thugs belonging to groups called Black Lives Matter and Antifa. This is the short list of what they have done:

• Committed widespread arson, including burning down hundreds of minority-owned businesses in the Latino, Asian and black communities (the black owners clearly didn’t matter);
• Incinerated cars and burned down buildings, court houses, police stations, et al;
• Shot laser beams in the eyes of policemen;
• Assaulted civilians, resulting in 30 deaths and thousands of hospitalizations;
• Smashed plate-glass windows of numerous businesses, both large and small and then engaged in looting, stealing and grand theft;
• Terrorized and then dragged people out of restaurants;
• Tore down historic statues, including those of black icons (duh);
• Defaced streets and avenues with BLM’s block-long, block-lettered, yellow-painted name.
• Terrorizedthe citizenry of entire neighborhoods and towns for months on end;
• Attacked people in locked cars;

In all those eight months––220 days, over 5,000hours––what was the reaction of Democrats, both elected and civilian?

A thunderous silence. Not a word of opprobrium or disapproval or condemnation. Not. One. Word.

WHY?

Because, as the esteemed Daniel Greenfield points out, Democrats heartily approve of violent acting-out riots ––as long as they support Democrat ideology! In 2018, he reminds us, there were “glowing stories” about the hundreds of Women’s March members who were engaging in “direct action” to disrupt the Senate’s Kavanaugh hearings. They blocked hallways, shouted down Senate members, and draped protest banners from balconies. Democrats cheered them on.

“In 2020,” Greenfield continues. “Black Lives Matter rioters vandalized the Lincoln Memorial and the WW2 Memorial, along with statues of Gandhi, General Kosciuszko, and Andrew Jackson. And Democrat House members proposed bills to protect the racist mobs from law enforcement.

“Meanwhile the BLM mob besieged the White House and battled Secret Service personnel, allegedly forcing the evacuation of President Trump and his family to a bunker. And a bail fund backed by Senator Kamala Harris and the Biden campaign staffers focused on helping the rioters and looters get out of prison.

“Now, as the Democrats expect to take power,” Greenfield writes, “they suddenly decided that rioting is bad.”

And let’s not forget that it was only last summer that Kalamity Harris encouraged her supporters to donate to the Minnesota Freedom Fund to provide bail money to the militant anarchists facing charges for setting fire to Minneapolis.

But don’t tell these things to Democrats who observed 55,000 hours of BLM and Antifa destruction with nary a critical word but watched the 4-5 hour incursion into the U.S. Congress on January 6^thand could only wring their hands, clutch their pearls, gasp in horror and exclaim: the building, the building, the history, the sanctity, the inviolability!

BACK TO THE LEDGER

On the right––literally––you have a president who has been conducting dozens of rallies over the past four years with jaw-dropping attendance. The “Stop the Steal” rally on January 6^thwas estimated to have about 150,000 attendees––with no untoward incident, upheaval, or arrest until the Capitol was breached. Back to this later.

Before this rally, the president chalked up accomplishments that made America safer, stronger, and richer. But because he repudiated both the paltry achievements and political philosophies of all his predecessors and the corrupt shills they left behind in the swamps of D.C., and because he had access to their indictable criminality, he became the biggest threat to the political establishment that ever existed. That said, President Trump:

• Lowered taxes (which Democrats hate and never vote for);
• Boosted the economy to all-time highs (which Democrats hate, which is why they vote for socialists);
• Elevated black employment to an all-time high (which Democrats really hate, the reason why blacks have never risen during Democrat rule);
• Strengthened our military (which Democrats hate since they loathe the military);
• Signed the first law ever to make cruelty to animals a federal felony;
• Signed Right-To-Try legislation allowing terminally ill patients to try experimental treatment that wasn’t allowed before.
• Signed the First-Step Act prison-reform bill that frees mostly black prisoners from unfair sentences.
• Supported and strengthened Israel by moving her capital to Jerusalem, giving Israel control over the Golan Heights, establishing peace treaties with the United Arab Emirates, Sudan, Morocco, Bahrain and several to follow (which will never happen under Biden since his first priority is resurrecting the genocidal-to-Israel Iran deal––which Pres. Trump canceled––which the mullahs have oft-stated is necessary for them to fulfill their Number One goal––to eradicate Israel forever! Yet Democrats, including Jewish Democrats, support a candidate who wants to revive this deal, partly because their poor hearts bleed for the people who call themselves Palestinians….you know, the people who routinely strap suicide bombs on three-year-old toddlers and celebrate the death of Jews with streets named after the murderers and lifelong pensions).
• Supported the pro-life movement, which the Democrats hate more than anything, given their devotion to abortions. In NY, the entire Democrat legislature stood and applauded when theyallowed abortion up to the minute the head crowned! Not to be outdone by the Democrat Governor of VA, Ralph Northam, M.D., who signed a law that allows infanticide after the baby is born!
• Here are some of President Trump’s other staggering achievements for the American people.

SO WHAT WAS THIS COUP ALL ABOUT?

On November 3, 2020, the presidential election was held. Routinely, polls close at about 7 or 8 p.m., the votes are tallied electronically, and the Democrat operatives who pose as TV reporters start calling states as early as 9 or 10 p.m., with the final result usually not known until noon or so the next day.

On November 3^rd, the entire world––which follows American elections assiduously––witnessed something unprecedented in the history of American voting. Just as President Trump was winning a huge number of states––and electoral votes––and appeared to be winning most or all of the six battleground states by a landslide, the tallying stopped abruptly. And it didn’t start again. Not for an hour. Not for two hours. Not for three hours. After three hours it did start again, and the whole world saw actual MAGIC befitting David Blaine, even Harry Houdini!

All of sudden, Joe Biden magically gained hundreds of thousands of votes, ultimately enough to win the election. This in spite of a Mt. Everest of reports of massive voter fraud into the multimillions, including (this is the short list):

• Rigged Dominion voting machines;
• Italian, German and Chinese interference;
• An entire census worth of dead voters;
• Formidable professionals advocating for investigations and legal adjudication;
• Accepting ballots past 8:00 p.m. on Election Day.

All were strangely rejected by American courts––the same courts that believe traffic violations deserve their attention––but apparently not presidential voter fraud! Umm…does anyone else smell the rat I do?

As a final tribute to the outgoing president, a huge throng traveled to Washington, D.C. the other day to hear him speak and cheer him on. His entire speech was a rehash of the voting fiasco and an exhortation to protest peacefully the choosing of electors––and not the fomenting of violence that the corrupt media drones on about. Read the speech here.

Then, as if choreographed by George Ballanchine, a group of rally attendees marched across the street to the U.S. Congress to try to delay Congressional certification of the Electoral College vote. Who were they?

According to unassailable reporter Paul Sperry, a former FBI agent on the ground in Washington D.C “texted me and confirmed that at least 1 ‘bus load’ of Antifa thugs infiltrated peaceful Trump demonstrators as part of a false flag ops.” Mmmmmm.

To compound this allegation, we then see that the Capitol policemen actually opened the doors to the protestors and invited them inside. Who authorized this? You can watch the whole thing here.

Of course, the Democrats and their acolytes who have been hounding the president for five years, besieging him with false accusations, dragging the entire country through their “show trial” hoaxes (of Russian collusion, Ukraine, Stormy Daniels, Impeachment, et al), topped off this false-flag operation with demands that he resign immediately. And in the predictable behavior of all fascists, the social media outlets run by the globalists among us––Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Shopify, Snapchat, on and on––cut off his ability to communicate with the American people. Starting to smell the same rat?

Yet life goes on. President Trump will leave office as a man of monumental accomplishments and tremendous esteem from more than the 75-million people who voted for him. If he starts a third political party, there is no counting the numbers of conservatives, moderates, blacks, Hispanics and women who will jump eagerly on board. If he starts a media company, Americans will have their first taste in years of genuinely unbiased news. And if he and Melania––who served America so gracefully and effectively these past four years––decide to go back to their old life, every one of their admirers will wish them only abundant health and great happiness.

Americans, unfortunately, will have to endure an Obama-redux regime. But America is strong and we will weather this debacle as we did the two failed terms of Obama, all the time hoping for the appearance of another peerless populist president like Donald J. Trump.

By Joan Swirsky

What is it about good-looking, brainy, articulate, even charismatic people––particularly if they’re in the public eye––that makes them so vulnerable to the self-destroying over-confidence and arrogance known as hubris?

Who can forget when the beauteous, brash and brilliant Megyn Kelly blazed like a shooting star on Fox News, used her background as a former practicing attorney to conduct piercing and revelatory interviews; showcased enough magnetism to, as my mother used to say, charm a bird off a tree; and entranced the show-business and tabloid worlds with her romance and marriage to a rich and handsome businessman-cum-author and then give birth to three adorable children?

In the feminist-invented world of “having it all,” Kelly certainly fit the profile.

THE ESCALATOR WENT DOWN

And so did Kelly! As soon as the business mogul and TV star Donald Trump descended on the escalator in the eponymously-named Trump Tower with his gorgeous wife Melania in June of 2015 and announced his candidacy for the presidency of the United States of America, every media person in every outlet in the world salivated at the chance of interviewing the billionaire builder.

But nothing would reveal the RealDonaldTrump as much as the TV debates in which no less than 16 Republican candidates participated––all of them with the formidable political credentials that the businessman-candidate lacked.

They included Governors Scott Walker (WI), John Kasich (OH); former Governors Rick Perry (TX), Bobby Jindal (LA), George Pataki (NY), Mike Huckabee (AK), Jim Gilmore (VA), Jeb Bush (FL), Chris Christie (NJ); Senators Lindsey Graham (SC), Marco Rubio (FL), Ted Cruz (TX); as well as former CEO of Hewlett-Packard Carly Fiorina and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson.

CHANCE OF A LIFETIME

And who got the plum assignment to host the first Republican debate? None other than Fox’s “it girl” Megyn Kelly. I remember vividly how Kelly tantalized her audience with explosive things to come––rolling her hands, her eyes glistening––as she invited people to see what they had never ever seen before.

And she delivered! Right out of the gate, she accused candidate Trump of being abusive to women.

Uh oh. Wrong question to the wrong target. Did fledgling TV starlet Kelly really think she was more seasoned in media savvy than the guy who hosted two TV shows––The Apprentice and Celebrity Apprentice––that ran at the top of the ratings for over 14 years?

At the first debate, Trump destroyed two entities––all of his opponents and Megyn Kelly!

The American public––in poll after poll after poll after poll––believed that Trump was more credible, appealing and honest than Ms. Smarty Pants. And it was not long before Kelly was gone from Fox, hired by NBC-News, then gone from NBC and now into, um, podcasts.

SMARTY-PANTS LAWYERS DON’T “GET” CAPITALISM

Yes, this clever species likes to be paid the Big Bucks, but yoohoo Missy….where do you think that money comes from? It comes from We the People tuning into this or that TV or radio station or Internet site, and if the numbers are good, the advertising increases and it is that advertising money that pays your overpaid salaries!

Which brings me to an egghead like Tucker Carlson who may understand capitalism but clearly does not understand the power of We the People.

Since November 2016, Carlson has hosted an 8 p.m. show on Fox. In fact, on July 2020, he broke the record for highest-rated program in U.S. cable news history, garnering an average nightly audience of 4.33 million viewers.

Typically, his show features a monologue of provocative political commentary which cites numerous examples of leftist hypocrisy and challenges––with a high degree of empiricism––such sacred cows of leftism as global warming, open borders, and mail-in voting. He also interviews numerous “experts”to either affirm or argue with his own political opinions.

So how did this media star––just like Megyn Kelly––crash and burn?

THE SIDNEY DIS

When Tucker Carlson recently attacked attorney Sidney Powell, who was initially on the Trump legal team but is now independently pursuing justice for the president for the massive voter fraud that has put his reelection in question, We the People immediately suspected that Fox management had ordered Carlson to sing their leftist song.

If so, Tucker obediently complied, evincing the colossal conceit that Atty. Powell should tell him––a Fox News employee, a dispensable employee––the proof of voter fraud that she planned to take before a judge (or several judges) in perhaps the most consequential legal case in American history.

And when she didn’t answer his preposterous and presumptuous question, he had a verbal temper tantrum, acting indefensibly rude and obnoxiously antagonistic to one of the most seasoned and respected lawyers in our country.

While most Republicans and Conservatives were so disgusted with Fox’s dishonest coverage of the election––calling Arizona with hundreds of thousands of votes yet to be counted, failing to ask even one question about the unprecedented shutdown for three hours of voting tallies in the swing states of Ohio, Florida, Virginia, Colorado, Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, et al––they quit Fox and went to Newsmax TV and One American News Network (OANN).

But people like me and many others stayed with Fox solely because of commentators like Tucker Carlson and Mr. Rock-Ribbed Conservative himself, Sean Hannity.

However, when we witnessed Tucker’s shameful behavior toward Sidney Powell, the rest of We the People immediately and instantly and with no regrets whatsoever left Fox FOREVER! With, by the way, a Good Riddance to Mr. Smarty Pants!

And we were not alone. According to Jim Hoft’s unerring reportage, after Fox’s election-night coverage, Fox News crashed to such a degree that their viewership was cut by 50 percent in three weeks!

“Fox News spit on their audience, and their audience walked,” Hoft wrote, also displaying this dramatic graph:

As writer Andrea Widburg writes: “Fox News continues to insult its audience.”

FOLLOW THE MONEY

In 1983 there were 50 media companies, but today only six organizations are responsible for over 90 percent of all the “news” we read, watch and listen to! Five of the CEOs of these multibillion-dollar businesses are longtime leftist globalists, and the sixth, the only conservative, was Rupert Murdoch (Fox, Wall St. Journal, NY Post, et al) who a few years ago gave control of his empire to his leftist sons Lachlan and James.

For decades, these business titans have made massive financial investments in the global economy, thanks largely to the leftist con men and women—the Clinton’s and Obama & Co.; the Chinese Communist Party, the tin-pot dictators and America-haters of the United Nations; the leftist billionaires who thrive on and denounce capitalism at the same time—who convinced them that America was on the decline and that the open-borders, one-world-government crowd was in imminent ascendance.

Then Donald Trump happened and all that one-world baloney vanished overnight.

GLOBALIST MADNESS

Since then, the globalists have done two things:

1. They have continued to invest heavily in our economy, hence the rocket-like ascendance of the Stock Market,
2. They have told their media whores to keep up the drumbeat of negativity about President Trump.

Why? Because the ratings for their devolving shows spiked with his election, as did the money that lined their pockets!

The always astute Daniel Greenfield elaborated on this phenomenon:

“The media spent eight years declining into irrelevance under Obama. Even before Trump, Obama had bypassed the media for social media. The big stories were fed to the press by Obama Inc. cronies like Ben Rhodes or hidden-hand political smear shops like Fusion GPS.

“Trump revived the media…[his] end-year remarks to the NY York Times acerbically summed up his relationship with the media. `I’m going to win another four years… because newspapers, television, all forms of media will tank if I’m not there.’ The answering outburst of rage and contempt from the media burned all the hotter because the statement was not only intentionally provocative; it was also true.

“Trump’s greatest trick was forcing [the media] to get in the ring with him. That’s always been his trick for defeating his opponents.

“The media’s Trump rage ended Hillary’s career, put a Republican in the White House, pulled us out of the Paris Climate Accords, brought in the Muslim travel ban, recognized Jerusalem and did all the other things the media wails about every second of the day. And the media helped make them happen.”

WHAT NOW?

If the globally-coordinated, massively-funded, treasonously-conceived coup that leftists have been working on for the past five years succeeds, conservative patriots can be assured that President Trump will create a media company that overnight will have 80-million paid subscribers who will, finally, break––actually destroy––the malevolent, dishonest, and immorally anti-American media that has contaminated our airways for the past 100 years.

Can I hear an Amen?!

But my money is on––and has always been on––the Smartest Guy in the Room, President Donald J. Trump.

Starting today or tomorrow––Happy Thanksgiving everyone!––you can watch the reincarnation of the Greatest Show on Earth, ending, I trust, with the hand on the Bible on January 20^th, 2021, being the hand of the reelected President Trump!

“The ‘journalists’ of the news media have begun the relentless drumbeat of proclaiming ‘President-elect Biden.’ This is make-believe.” —Writer Chris Farrell

Shortly before the November 3^rd election for President of the United States, the proprietors of storefronts, buildings, restaurants, dealerships, and businesses of all types across our entire vast country boarded up their facades in anticipation of widespread rioting, arson, looting, massive destruction and violent assaults by Republicans if Joe Biden won the contest.

Just kidding. In fact, these measures were taken to avoid the by-now familiar acting-out violence that Democrats and the thugs they support in Black Lives Matter and Antifa have been demonstrating for the world to witness for the past six months––in at least 15 once-peaceful Democrat-run cities––when they object to this or that policy, statue, police department, et al.

It goes without saying that those proprietors––who spent multi-thousands of dollars to protect the businesses that support their families, and that help them pay taxes to our government,boarded up their properties knowing that if President Trump won reelection, they would be the merciless targets of the bought-and-paid-for Democrat anarchists who unfortunately symbolize today’s Ugly Americans.

Interestingly, several days after the election and in eager anticipation of the Biden-Kalamity [premature and erroneous] announcement of their victory, a large crowd of Tolerant Democrats rallied outside the White House, as always spewing vulgarities and displaying placards expressing nastiness and filth. Who can draw a conclusion other than the Democrats are both sore losers and sore winners?

STILL UNKNOWN

We have still to learn the outcome of the election, thanks to the new and unprecedented Covid-dictated “rules” about mail-in ballots, late voting, delayed returns, strange rulings by Democrat-appointed judges, and chilling reports of such rampant voter fraud by Democrats that it defies what any American––living or dead––has ever seen.

Why? Because the Never-Trumpers and, again, the bought-and-paid for corrupt media,were beyond desperate, having failed thunderously for the previous four years to take the president down and to bring about the coup d’état they have dreamed about since 2016.

What to do? Why, rig the election, of course!

Below is just a tiny sampling of the massive voting irregularities and fraud that were discovered both before and after Joe Biden and Kalamity Harris declared victory through their media lackeys, in clear defiance of the U.S. Constitution and 243-years of American tradition:

• On Election night at approximately 4 a.m., 138,000 ballots were”instantaneously” counted in Wisconsin and, magically, every single ballot was for Joe Biden (Mmmm).
• The next day, Rudy Giuliani, in Philly, PA,spelled out massive fraud re mail-in ballots that Republican observers were illegally stopped from overseeing the vote––the same illegalities happening in Arizona, Detroit, Nevada, and Milwaukee.
• In Michigan, a U.S. Postal Service whistleblower reported that his superiors told him to back date late mail-in ballots so they would be accepted.They also recorded the vote of a man born in 1850 and another who died in 1984.
• Also in Michigan a software error (Mmmm) switched 6,000 Republican votes to Democrat…the same thing happened in 47 Michigan counties!
• A lawsuit filed by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) alleged there were at least 21,000 dead people on PA’s voter rolls. As of October 2020, at least 9,212 registrants had been dead for at least five years, at least 1,990 registrants dead for at least 10 years, and at least 197 registrants have been dead for at least 20 years.”
• In a county in Georgia, poll watchers took ballots home with them.
• Military ballots for Trump were found in a trash heap in PA.
• In VA, Trump held roughly a 300,000-vote lead, but then––again, magically––a huge trove of approximately 400,000 votes came in for Joe Biden––but not one for Donald Trump. “Amazing, writes blogger Fred Miller, “how one can suddenly discover huge batches of votes 100% for Biden, 0% for Trump, when and wherever one chances to need them.”
• Gen. Thomas McInerney explained that a pair of computer software programs––Hammer and Scorecard––initially designed for the CIA before being privatized by Deep State players from the Obama administration, were used to change votes from Trump to Biden in multiple voting locations…possibly in all the swing states. Admiral James A. “Ace” Lyons, on his death bed (in Nov. 2019), reportedly told his longtime friend McInerney: “The Hammer is key to the coup.”
• Another computer system, Dominion, although known to be defective, was used in 30 states, including every swing state. And whaddaya know? Nancy Pelosi’s Chief of Staff and Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s husband are both shareholders in Dominion!
• Author Michael Charles Master reported (read the entire riveting article) that at midnight, “Trump led in all the battleground states by large margins…but for some unexplainable reason, WI, MI, PA, NC and NV all stopped counting votes simultaneously… and none of those states counted any additional votes for the next three hours….and NOT ONE TV commentator––including on now-leftist Fox––asked why! Master pointed out that all five of those states have Democrat governors. Mmmm.
• A self-described Democrat Party Worker from Detroit bragged on Facebook: “I threw out every Trump ballot I saw. Tens of thousands of them and so did all of my co-workers”

But don’t take my word for it. Here, in his own words, is Hunter Biden’s father boasting of having participated in developing“the most extensive voter fraud organization in history.”

THE ONION

An onion, as everyone knows, has many many layers. Just try peeling an onion to see why it is the perfect metaphor for complicated subjects that require many levels of exploration to plumb their depths and understand their meaning.

But the Trump onion phenomenon has only two layers, both of them psychological.

The first layer is jealousy, which I have always believed is the strongest human emotion, going back to the Bible. Stronger than hatred. Stronger than anger––responsible, in fact, for most criminal acts, from theft to conspiracy to violence to murder. This is the stuff of tragedy… and also, sometimes, redemption.

Joseph and his jealous brothers selling him into slavery in Egypt.

In our metaphorical onion, the human emotion that competes most ferociously with jealously is fear. One has only to look at the international dread of the Covid-19 virus to see the power of fear to destroy economies, isolate human beings for months on end, and inspire Democrats to defy the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law in order to try to rig the most important election of our lifetimes in their favor.

THE FEAR FACTOR

But what do the Regressives among us have to be afraid of?

You could speculate that what fuels the hostility of the Left is not fear, that it’s resentment because of the mountain of bruised egos the Democrats have experienced after working mightily for over four years to depose, sabotage, impeach, and topple the Trump presidency––all crashing failures––and that a Biden victory would allow all of them to save face. After all, even the passage of time rarely calms this kind of narcissistic injury.While this theory may be plausible, it’s not very compelling.

Then what? It’s so obvious. The reason why Democrats have spent billions of dollars to defeat President Trump is not because of their Marxist ideology and not because of their massive investments in the global economy, but rather because they are rightly terrified that when President Trump is announced the winner,an avalanche of indictments, trials, and lengthy prison terms will rain down on them––on all of them, including the very top of the top echelon.

As one small example, reported by Brannon Howse: In 2003, CIA contractor Dennis Montgomery built the Hammer (discussed above) as a foreign surveillance tool, but it was subsequently commandeered in 2009 by the Obama regime (including CIA Director John Brennan and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper), which turned Montgomery into a whistleblower who testified that among 600-million pages of documents stored on the program’s 47 hard drives––which were turned over to the FBI––were 10,000 pages of documents regarding Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, including videos and images.

Get the motive for voter fraud now?

Get the fear factor?

Don’t look for any other reason. Trump knows firsthand the depth of their corrupt, seditious and even treasonous acts…and they themselves know it too!

Stay tuned.

“Don’t threaten us with cutting off your aid. It will not work. I am not a Jew with trembling knees. I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens. Nobody came to our aid when we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid.”

Those words were spoken by Menachem Begin in June of 1982, directly to the Democrat senator from Delaware, Joe Biden, who had confronted the Israeli Prime Minister during his Senate Foreign Relations Committee testimony by threatening to cut off aid to Israel.

That’s right, only 32 years after the establishment of the tiny Jewish state, which was surrounded by 22 war-mongering, Israel-loathing Arab states, and only 35 years after the Holocaust savagely murdered––tortured and gassed-to-death––six-million Jewish men, women, children and infants, Senator Biden was once again terrorizing the Jews of the world with his menacing ultimatum.

Not a fluke, not a misstatement, not an error in judgement, but vintage Joe Biden, whose longtime antagonism and belligerence toward Israel has been exhaustively documented, most recently by Shmuel Klatzkin (Biden’s Hostility to Israel––read the whole article) and Janet Levy in AmericanThinker.com (Is a Vote for Joe Biden in the Interest of American Jews?).

EXAMPLES ABOUND

Levy reports a numberof the Obama-Biden regime’s consistent anti-Israel policies:

• Interfered with the 2015 Israeli elections with the goal of defeating the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,
• Their State Department granted $350,000 to OneVoice, a radical anti-Israel organization that supports the terrorist group Hamas,
• They fully supported the boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) movement to destroy Israel economically. 
• In 2016, Biden pressured Ukraine, an abstainer, to vote for U.N. Security Council measure 2334, which claimed that ancient and historic Jewish sites were “illegally occupied.”
• They approved the same U.N. measure, which condemned Israelis building settlements, which emboldened the Palestinian Authority to call for the ethnic cleansing of Jews from Judea, Samaria, and the Jewish Quarter, reversing decades of U.S. vetoes against such moves.

Today, candidate Biden pledges to reopen the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) mission in Washington, D.C.And he vows, incomprehensibly, to rejoin the Iran nuclear deal, in which the arch-terrorist state in the entire world has vowed to exterminate the State of Israel.

In addition, Levy points out that while Biden has given lip service to repudiating anti-Semitism, he has been thunderously silent when his fellow Democrats–– Reps. Ihlan Omar (MN), Rashida Tlaib (MI), Ayanna Pressley (MA), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and simpatico Jew-hating activists Linda Sarsour, Tamika Mallory, et al––spew their undisguised anti-Semitic bile for all the world to hear.

“Biden said he could never be silent on anti-Semitism,” Levy writes, “but raised no objections, as vice-president, to more than 60 White House visits by Al Sharpton, who incited anti-Jewish riots in New York City in the 1990s.” That’s the same Al Sharpton, I might add, who writer John Perazzo documentsas being responsible for the horrific Tawana Brawley racial hoax, called the first black mayor of NY City a “Ni—er Whore,” delivered a speech at Kean College saying: “We built pyramids before Donald Trump ever knew what architecture was … we taught philosophy and astrology and mathematics before Socrates and them Greek homos ever got around to it.”

You get the picture of one of Joe Biden’s favorite pals.

LESSONS OF HISTORY

I was a very little girl––younger than six––when I first asked my parents why they were running frantically to meeting after meeting every evening, opening their checkbooks, delivering impassioned speeches, wringing their hands and shedding copious tears.

They told me what few American-Jewish parents ever told their children, so numb were they from disbelief and so eager to protect them from the ghastly truth, which was that adults and children just like them, just like us––six million of them––had been savagely murdered by Adolph Hitler and his “willing executioners” in Germany, Poland, all over Eastern Europe and even in “civilized” countries like France, simply because they were Jewish.

Jews who managed to flee Europe and come to America before the Holocaust––like my own and my husband Steve’s grandparents––and those who survived the killing camps and landed on our shores by sheer good fortune, thought they died and went to heaven on earth. For the first time in their lives––in fact, in Jewish history––they were free to breathe, to create, to pursue their dreams, to worship and to raise their children without fear.

Yes, there were quotas in colleges and graduate schools, Holocaust denial, and today an upsurge in Jew hatred, but nothing stopped Jews from succeeding and excelling and contributing disproportionately to American society and to the world, just as the Jews in Israel––only 72 years old––do today.

THE LEGACY OF PERSECUTION

But over 3,500 years of persecution exacts a heavy price. To understand, just think about the long-lasting toll the following events take:

• A one-minute gunshot,
• A two-hour bout of chemotherapy,
• A three-week recovery from open-heart surgery,
• A four-month lay-off,
• An eight-month (so far) pandemic lockdown
• A five-year recession.

All of the above are life-changing, diminishing, often devastating, sometimes annihilating.

Yet Jews continued on, their survival instinct stronger than the most crushing circumstances of their long and besieged history of being haunted, hunted and often destroyed in, among other cataclysmic events:

• The Crusades.
• The Inquisition.
• The expulsion from Spain.
• The Holocaust.
• And always, the diaspora.

After the Holocaust, American Jews who followed politics––most did and do today––were forced to ask themselves, and taught their children to ask: Is it good for the Jews? Meaning, will this or that statement or policy or law lead to another Holocaust?

After all, the Jews of Europe in the 1930s and ‘40s enjoyed tremendous success––in business, academia, the arts and sciences, society in general. Unlike the United States today, every college and university did not feature violent anti-Jewish protests or professors who taught anti-Jewish propaganda. Until the rise of Hitler, there were no elected officials––as there are in the U.S. today––spewing Jew hatred, not only with no disapproval from the powers-that-be but with total impunity.

TO ASK THAT QUESTION TODAY

Is Biden’s candidacy good for the Jews? I can say unequivocally and without hesitation that scandal-plagued Joe Biden, his inexperienced and effortlessly alienating VP pick Kalamity Harris, the truly regressive Obama-clone platform he’s running on––including high taxes, a weakened military, the support of terrorist groups like Black Lives Matter and Antifa, an anti-fracking return-to-energy-dependence, open borders, confiscation of your guns, and a viciously contentious relationship with Israel––would be terrible for America and disastrous for the Jewish state.

If you’re a liberal American Jew determined to pull the lever or mail a write-in ballot for Biden––don’t!

Don’t be a Jew with trembling knees. Your very survival and that of your family is at stake!

After the 2016 presidential election, Democrats were consumed with anger, indignation, and a burning unquenchable fury. They had basked in smug satisfaction during the previous eight years as Barack Obama began to fulfill his campaign promise of October 28, 2005 of “fundamentally transforming the United States of America” from our Democratic Republic into a socialist utopia. And they were blind with rage that Hillary had been denied the next eight years to complete the mission.

Even more infuriating was the fact that everything the 2016 victor stood for was a repudiation of nearly a century of leftist strivings. In fact, candidate and then President Trump promised to overturn the Regressives’ most cherished “values,” including sky-high taxes, open borders, a weakened military, flawed foreign treaties, ongoing wars, the illiteracy roadmap called Common Core, and generations of impoverished, uneducated, imprisoned Blacks, et al.

THE WORLD’S BIGGEST TEMPER TANTRUM

Rejecting nearly 250 years of the peaceful transition of presidential power, Democrats launched a four-year war against President Trump, manufacturing a Russian-collusion hoax, a Ukraine hoax, a Stormy Daniels hoax, an impeachment hoax, on and on. All came to naught, but their efforts did expose the deep systemic corruption at the highest reaches of the Obama regime––corruption involving crimes as serious as sedition and treason!

“Coincidentally,” on the heels of the impeachment failure came the China virus, not only bringing our economy––and the entire world––to a halt, but giving rise to unrestrained violence by bought-and-paid-for anarchist groups such as Antifa and Black Lives Matter in about 15 Democrat-run cities.

Then, President Trump tested positive for the corona virus and was hospitalized to the everlasting—and unseemly—glee of his opponents. However, that glee was short-lived as the president also triumphed over this assault, left the hospital after three days, and has been out campaigning in full Iron man mode ever since.

DEMS NOW IN FULL PANIC MODE

It is only a couple of weeks till the presidential election and the anger that once animated Democrats has been replaced by fear––stark, bug-eyed, white-knuckle, deadly fear and dread.

Wherever their marching orders come from––leftist billionaire globalists, or China, as writer Daniel Greenfield spells out––they have now been reduced to holding their collective breaths in the hope that:

• Joe Biden can stay vertical and passably sentient till November 3^rd,
• His VP choice, Kalamity Harris, can continue to conceal her close ties––familial and political––to Communist China,
• The escalating Hunter/Joe/Burisma scandal doesn’t get even more explosive and scandalous, as writer Andrea Widburg predicts it will, or, as she wrote: ….the e-mails “also indicate that his father pimped Hunter to foreign governments to act as a bagman for bribes”…not to omit Hunter’s alleged appetite for child pornography.

Journalist Jack Cashill asks: Can Democrats Sell Their Worst Candidate Ever?“For all their talk of empowering women and minorities,” he writes, “leftists have used their vast media, tech, and deep-state power to sell America a corrupt old white guy of diminished mental capacity…by suppressing the fact that––by any standards––Biden is a pedophile, a plagiarist, a liar, a hypocrite, and––by the left’s standards––a racist, sexist, warmonger as well as a credibly accused sexual predator.”

But obviously, character is not what Democrats care about, as demonstrated by eight straight years of watching Bill Clinton spit in Hillary’s face every single day with his serial affairs, or Barack Obama trot around the world bad-mouthing the country that gave him everything.

What they care about, as evidenced brazenly over the past four years, is getting rid of the guy who exposed their deep corruption, the better to avoid their inevitable prison sentences!

ALL HANDS ON DECK!

In short order, the now-hysterical Democrats have jumped into action.

Classy Democrats like Kristopher Jacks, Chairman of the executive committee of the Colorado Democrat Party, threatened violence and murder if Trump wins, or as he said,  “Guillotines, motherf…r.” Kind of reminds you of Madonna’s equally classy threat about burning down the White House, doesn’t it?

But Jacks and Madonna and their quite numerous ilk are small potatoes. The bigger fish are also in full panic mode:

• Quick, they demand of their media whores: Report a rise in Covid-19 cases and NOT A WORD about Hunter Biden.
• Hurry, they call to Twitter: Shut down the president’s multi-million-followers account and that of his press secretary, and also the account of White House physician, Dr. Scott Atlas, for daring to suggest fact-based information that contradicts the leftists’ so-called experts on Covid-19.
• Attention, they tell their pollsters: Increase those Biden-Kalamity numbers!
• Head’s Up, they call to tech giant Facebook: Kill the ads and positive messages about Trump.
• YooHoo debate moderators: With Trump, get out your machetes!
• Listen Up, they say to their ballot harvesters and voter-fraud experts: quadruple your efforts. Of course, they are thrilled to read reports of their successes, such as reported by Mark Tapscott: New Data Analysis Finds 353 Counties With 1.8 Million More Registered Voters Than Eligible Citizens.

ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES

Why this desperation? Because the Democrat poohbahs also read the inside polling numbers and know things are looking grim for their basement-dwelling candidate. They are especially terrified because they know that a Trump victory will bring the two outcomes they fear most:

• A swift avalanche of overdue indictments and ultimate imprisonments to all the corrupt operatives of the Obama regime––including Obama and Biden, as well as the corrupt functionaries they appointed in the FBI, CIA, Homeland Security, State, et al.
• An absolute death sentence for the Democrat Party as it is currently constituted.

That’s why the Democrats are quaking with fear and dread––and we are all seeing it play out in living color as the few days till the election elapse.

After all the treachery, violence, duplicity and hypocrisy that Democrats have displayed not only since citizen Donald J. Trump and his magnificent wife Melania descended the elevator in Trump Tower to announce his candidacy for POTUS, but for the past four years of the Democrats’ manic, vulgar, obsessed and irrational behavior.

Right now, it is fascinating to see these leftists in their full infantile-dependency mode, calling on their mommies and daddies in the media, big tech and the Big Daddy billionaires to save them.

Given the choice between the systemic corruption and hate-America mentality of the left and the burgeoning peace, prosperity and love-America administration of President Trump, pulling the right lever on November 3^rd is a no-brainer!

Last March brought us the results of the caucus and primary votes of the Democrat 2020 contest for the U.S. presidency. Out of a U.S. population of about 330 million––some stats include 40 million illegals, which brings the total to 370 million––the best Democrats had to offer was about 15 unimpressive candidates who the public saw through and sent packing. Left in the contest were:

• Senator Bernie Sanders, an energized 78-year-old white Jewish Marxist from Vermont, a keen admirer of Fidel Castro and Mother Russia––who represents his constituents as an Independent––who had recently survived a heart attack.
• Joe Biden, a 77-year-old white pro-abortion Catholic, former senator from Delaware for 36 years, VP of the U.S. for eight years under Barack Obama, and, even last March, clearly in the early-to-mid stages of dementia.

But uh oh. When the DNC and Hillary & Co. saw the crowds that a feisty and passionate Sen. Sanders was attracting––and knowing that he would not obediently follow the agenda of the “insider” leftist-globalist-Islamist playbook they had been working to establish for decades––they once again, as they had four years earlier, engineered the ouster of Sanders in order to implant their exquisitely easy-to-manipulate candidate of choice: Joe Biden.

In short order, they garnered key endorsements, enlisted their media whores to omit any mention of “Jim Crow Joe’s” long and ignominious history of racism, and relied upon other career liars to camouflage the unmistakable cognitive decline of candidate Biden, which has worsened significantly over the past several months.

IN THE MEANTIME

March was also the month when the China virus hit––“coincidentally” after the impeachment hoax imploded of its own fakery––and the Democrats realized that everything they had tried for four years to derail, actually to end, the Trump presidency had failed:

• The Russian hoax––kaput!
• The Ukraine hoax––a colossal failure.
• The Stormy Daniels fiasco––a charade.
• The Impeachment hoax––crashed and burned.

The China virus “pandemic” fit the Democrats’ plan perfectly––as did the “spontaneous” rise of the leftist-financed, five-months-long rampage through American cities of Black Lives Matter and Antifa, the rationale being that if “Trump’s America” was out of control, Biden’s America would make things better.

That is the same Joe Biden who echoed every word, philosophy and plan of action his old boss, Barack Obama, put forth, for instance Obama’s declaration to the American people that, “We cannot continue to rely on our military…we’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”

According to writer Amil Imani, “Antifa and BLM are Obama’s ‘security force.’”

PSYCHOPATHOLOGY

And what have these “peaceful demonstrators”––as the corrupt media would like you to believe they are––done over the past five months to reassure the public that the Biden-Kalamity ticket is our country’s best path forward?

Fortunately for Trump supporters like me and millions throughout the country, these acting-out psychopaths have behaved so egregiously that they have literally insured a landslide reelection victory for POTUS MAGNUS!

That’s right, I said psychopaths. While the less menacing word for this species is sociopaths, they are one and the same. And the arch symptom of this pathology is a complete lack of empathy, the absolute inability to feel for another human being.

Reminds me of a song called “Nothing” from the musical A Chorus Line, with music by Marvin Hamlisch and the lyrics by Edward Kleban.

And I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
To see what I had inside
Yes, I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
And I tried, I tried.

[And I felt] “Nothing, I’m feeling nothing”
They all felt something
But I felt nothing.

Want proof? Over the past five months, Americans with their eyes wide open and ears perked, have witnessed the thugs of BLM and Antifa:

• Rampaging through our city’s streets and avenues, smashing the massive plate-glass windows of banks and office buildings, apartments and medical facilities with tire irons and other weapons of mass destruction.
• Destroying gas stations, bodegas and supermarkets, and terrorizing suburban neighborhoods and private homes.
• Committing widespread arson by igniting both small and large businesses on fire till they burn to the ground.
• Overturning cars and vans, buses and cabs, shattering their windows, ripping out their seats and ripping off their fenders and, again, lighting them on fire.
• Inflicting savage bodily harm on old and young, black and white––throwing them to the ground, kicking them over and over again in their guts and heads, shooting blinding laser beams into their eyes, breaking their bones, all often resulting in hospitalizations in intensive-care units and also deaths.

EYES + EARS

I cannot imagine even one person in America watching this hate-fueled carnage, these blatantly illegal acts, and not asking himself or herself:

Do these bought-and-paid for goons not have parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, siblings and friends who work in such businesses; who have spent blood, sweat, tears and often 25-hour days building such businesses; who depend on their work to pay their bills, care for their families?

• Of course they do––but they felt nothing!

Don’t these marauders know how painful it is to get kicked in the head, get the wind knocked out of you so you can’t breathe, see your skin peeling off from third-degree burns?

• Of course they do––but they felt nothing!

Don’t these domestic terrorists know how terrifying it is to have criminals shining flashlights into your home, threatening you and actually inflicting bodily harm, and making you afraid to shop in your own city?

• Of course they do––but they felt nothing!

As if to emphasize their stone-cold natures, after they commit these crimes they dance and prance, laugh and high-five as if they’ve contributed something valuable to the world.

And one more question: Do these idiots think that after watching this criminality for five months, any sane American will vote for a Democrat?

After all, every single Democrat––including candidates Joe Biden and Kalamity––has uttered not one word of objection or condemnation while the beautiful cities of Seattle, Portland, Manhattan, Baltimore, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland, Kenosha, et al., were being burned to the ground, their properties destroyed, their residents frozen in fear as they hear the anarchists’ chants of “Defund the Police” at a time when the heroic men and women in blue are more needed than ever.

Why? Because Democrats approved! So much so that Kalamity actually praised BLM during the recent VP-candidate debate!

It is no wonder that Ron Ross of Spectator.org writes that “Democrats have created scores of first-time Trump voters,” including parents, sports fans who detest seeing players insult the flag and national anthem, new gun owners, people fed up with coronavirus lockdowns, fracking fans who don’t want to see gas prices double, black and Hispanic voters who appreciate the employment offered by Trump’s booming––and now recovering––economy, the list is long.

By my computation, all this adds up to a 50-state rout for President Trump! Yep…eyes + ears = 50!

No, it’s not “the economy, stupid.” In spite of the bipolar stock market since the China virus hit the world last March, our remarkably resilient economy––thanks to President Trump––is now on the ascent, employment rates growing once again, and consumer confidence increasingly robust.

And no, it’s not domestic policy, where, among his unprecedented accomplishments:

• Prison reform is in the process of transforming entire populations of mostly black lifelong recidivist losers into potential lifelong contributor winners.
• A border wall––hotly contested by Democrats who never once protested the invasion of drug cartels, criminals, and disease-ridden illegals––has already yielded a significant reduction in these plagues.
• Hundreds of conservative judges have been appointed and probably three Constitution-respecting Supreme Court judges.
• Democrat mayors in a dozen states are proving their jaw-dropping incompetence by not only failing to stem the tide of rampant arson, theft, and murder by the anarchist groups Black Lives Matter and Antifa, but encouraging these criminals when they refuse the help offered to them by President Trump.

And no, it’s not foreign policy, in which Pres. Trump has succeeded in having:

• European nations pay their fair-share to NATO.
• Our troops coming home from Syria and Afghanistan.
• Tariffs having China off balance.
• Not one international conflict in almost-four years.
• A now-flourishing relationship between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, a historic Kosovo-Serbia economic deal, an Israel-Bahrain deal (with Saudi Arabia not far behind), and three richly-deserved Nobel Peace Prize nominations for President Trump.

NONE OF THE ABOVE

Why? Because Democrats simply don’t care for policies that benefit America and Americans.

The only thing Democrats have cared about for the past hundred years is winning elections at any cost, the better to inflict their strangulating socialist/communist and now Islamist style of government on the American people.

And in the past four years in particular, all they’ve been maniacally obsessed with is deposing, impeaching or insuring that President Trump not be reelected even if the perpetual sore losers of the left have to buy the guns they say they hate to wage a Civil War!

Why? Because the business mogul and non-politician Citizen Trump won the last election by exposing:

• “The Swamp’s” systemic depravity, corruption, and treason.
• The Democrats’ America-Last policies.
• The bias of the bought-and-paid-for leftist Media Whores of the Fake-News Media for all the world to witness.
• The Democrat racism that has kept blacks with broken families, mal-educated, imprisoned, and impoverished for decades on end.
• The horrific trade deals that benefitted foreign nations but not America.
• The fallacy that no Mideast peace is possible without striking a deal with the exploited-by-their-brethren people who call themselves Palestinians.
• The craven deals that made our country dependent on foreign oil by––POOF!––making America completely energy independent.

As I often and regretfully state because of space limitations, the above is the short list.

THE METHOD TO THEIR MADNESS

Dozens of books have spelled out in scandalous detail how Democrats have stolen elections over the past many decades by enlisting the votes of illegal aliens, absentee voters who simply don’t exist, and of course dead voters.

Among the most riveting are:

John Fund’s Stealing Elections: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy.
Eric Eggers’ Fraud: How the Left Plans to Steal the Next Election
Tracy Campbell’s Deliver the Vote: A History of Election Fraud, an American Political Tradition-1742-2004

Then there is Ballot Harvesting, a scheme exclusively used by Democrats to, ahem, win elections. How does it work? According to CA political commentator Stephan Frank, anyone––campaign workers, minors, illegals, et al––go door to door to “help” people fill out ballots that strangely favor Democrats, and refuse to collect ballots from anyone they suspect of voting the “wrong” way. They even pay them to vote the “right way.”

Intimidation is common and nothing stops them from altering ballots or throwing out ballots for the undesired candidate.

According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, currently 26 states allow this fraudulence, a practice being aggressively and successfully challenged by Tom Fitton of electionintegrity@judicialwatch.org.

Not to omit the now-defunct ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), a massive group of over 500,000 members which operated nationwide since 1970, registering voters and helping people sign up for government-financed programs.

ACORN was exposed for its criminal activities in 2009 by James O’Keefe, founder of The Veritas Project, resulting in multiple convictions for massive voter fraud in several states, and it closed its doors in 2010, although it is believed that splinter groups formed and are active to this day.

Writer Barbara Kralis maintains  that “America’s election mail-in ballot scam has been a huge problem the last four national elections. Democrats and organized union officials keep ‘miraculously’ finding lost mail-in ballot boxes (fake ballots) on the days following each of the last four elections…” leading to highly suspect Democrat victories.

LET ME COUNT THE WAYS

The following is a tiny example of the vote-rigging methods used exclusively by Democrats:

• Project Veritas Exposes Ballot Harvesting Scheme With Alleged Ties to Ilhan Omar (D-MN),
• In Brooklyn NY, 25 percent of mail-in ballots ruled invalid in June Democrat primary.
• In a NJ special election, nearly 20 percent of ballots thrown out, and four people prosecuted for fraud.
• In a FL primary, more than 35,000 mail-in ballots rejected, and over 100,000 ballots rejected in CA.
• NC Joins MI and PA in Accepting Late Ballots 9 Days After Election.
• GA authorities reveal 1,000 people double-voted in primary on June 9^th using absentee ballots.
• VA counties see multiple absentee ballots sent to more than 1,000 voters.

Here’s a beauty from Doug Ross@Journal:
In PA, MI, MINN, and WI, Democrat activists dressed in black robes have fundamentally rewritten state election laws. Among them are:

• Mail-in ballots can be received up to seven days after the election and still be counted.
• These ballots can be missing postmarks and still be counted.
• The signature on the ballot doesn’t even have to match with that of the registered voter.
• As a bonus, they have banned the Green Party from the ballot to prevent erosion of the Biden vote.
• All these illegal proclamations directly contravene state law and are a clear violation of the U.S. Constitution.
• More than 534,000 mail ballots were rejected during primaries across 23 states this year — nearly a quarter in key battlegrounds for the fall…(Washington Post).
• In June, Democrats in NY signed into law a plan to give driver’s licenses to the state’s 725,000 illegal aliens, giving them the ability to vote.
• In NC, voters reported receiving two ballots in the mail.
• MN Sued Over Mail-In Ballot Ruling.
• A top PA lawmaker called on the state to immediately expunge the names of 11,198 non-citizens whom the state confirmed are registered to vote despite not being eligible.
• FBI Finds Discarded Military Mail-in Ballots Cast for Trump (see picture).
• Reports in WI of three trays of mail containing absentee ballots found in a ditch.
• Election Watchdog Finds 350,000 Dead Registrants on Voter Rolls in 42 States.
• GA Investigating 1,000 Cases of Voter Fraud.
• The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) of IN found the following: there may be as many as 350,000 dead people still registered to vote in U.S. elections; NY, TX, MI, FL, and CA accounted for 51 percent of the dead registrants; 40,000 likely duplicate voters may have voted twice; many state registrars have been forbidden to cull their voter rolls by the courts because hysterical Democrats claim some voters might be disenfranchised; NV’s largest county sent out more than 200,000 mail-in primary ballots to the wrong addresses, while 84,000 mail-in presidential primary ballots cast in NY City were disqualified.
• Hillary Clinton: Biden “Should Not Concede Under Any Circumstances”––Mmm…does this pathologically sore loser know something We the People don’t know?
• Study: 12 Percent of Voters in VA Could be Registered Illegally.
• NV Sent More Than 200,000 Mail-In Primary Ballots to Wrong Addresses.
• IL Sued After Refusing to Disclose Statewide Voter Data (the above six items reported by Joe Schoffstall of The Washington Free Beacon).
• CA Man Finds THOUSANDS of Unopened Ballots in Garbage Dumpster, Workers Quickly Try to Cover Them Up Cover Them Up.
• Again, CA political commentator Stephan Frank reports: Trump IS Right: Post Office Is Discarding, Hiding Absentee Ballots! (Well, whaddaya know––Joe Biden just received the endorsement of the National Postal Mail Handlers Union!).
• Not that proof is needed, but recently a Democrat operative told The NY Post’s Jon Levine: “You have a postman who is a rabid anti-Trump guy and he’s working in Bedminster or some Republican stronghold … He can take those [filled-out] ballots, and knowing 95% are going to a Republican, he can just throw those in the garbage.”

Again, space limitations prevent me from listing hundreds upon hundreds more examples of Democrat voter fraud.

PARTNERS IN CRIME

Not satisfied to leave voter fraud in the hands of paid lackeys, ACORN splinter groups, or state governors, the new Masters of the Universe in Big Tech have let their fellow leftists know that they’re all in.

According to a Google whistleblower in Allum Bokhari’s new book, #DELETED: Big Tech’s Battle to Erase the Trump Movement and Steal the Election, “When voters find out what Big Tech companies have done to meddle in the coming election, they’ll be rightly furious” at the attempts of Google, Facebook, Twitter, and other tech companies to sway the coming election in Biden’s favor.

“There is even a one-hour recording of Google’s co-founders and executives lamenting Trump’s election and vowing not to let it happen again,” according to Bokhari.

Democrats Sen. Charles Schumer and Rep. Nancy Pelosi are closely aligned with groups like Majority Forward (created in 2015) that funnel millions in secret cash into 2020 elections, according to FreeBeacon.com. While Democrats “have long railed against dark money in politics, they now outpace Republicans in its usage.”

Linda Goudsmit, author of The Book of Humanitarian Hoaxes: Killing America with ‘Kindness’, sees the upcoming election as another “sinister leftist, Islamist, globalist attack on America.” We are only weeks away from the election,” she said, and “the enemies of America are desperate and behaving like cornered animals poised for attack. Their survival is at stake because if POTUS is reelected, he will take down the Deep State and expose them all. They know it and Trump knows it.”

Goudsmit’s point is really the crux of the Democrats’ desperation these past four years. With a Trump victory, you can be sure that over the next few months, both Attorney General Bill Barr and U.S. Attorney John Durham will be handing out indictments to the many criminals from Barack Obama’s Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Justice, Central Intelligence Agency, Homeland Security, State Department, and every other department of our government, including the Military, in which he implanted his hate-America agents to commit either sedition or treason in the name of actualizing a genuine coup d’état against both a sitting president and America the Beautiful itself

It must be incomprehensible to them––they with all their prestigious college degrees, high IQs, impeccable credentials, fancy job titles, and positions in the highest reaches of the American government––that every ploy they used in the past, every arch machination, every exquisitely formulated plan of action…all resulted in four years of crashing failures.

Notwithstanding the fake polls showing the president’s faltering opponent ahead,it is clear that the internal polls of the president’s enemies tell them that he will win a second term handily, in fact in the proverbial landslide.

But now, quite suddenly and quite chillingly, President Trump is in the hospital fighting Covid-19. Is this the Deep State’s last malevolent attempt to prevent his reelection…and to save themselves from Leavenworth? Sounds about right to me. I only hope the president has several private armed guards and a food taster!

For the past 50 or more years, the Democrat Party––always leftwing but today both viciously anti-American and virulently anti-Semitic––has worked tirelessly to inflict its worldview on everyone in America.

By stealthily infiltrating our media, our schools (from pre-school to universities), and since Obama our Intelligence Services and Military, it has sought to convince our electorate that high taxes, open borders, sanctuary cities, shipping manufacturing jobs to foreign countries, post-birth infanticide, and total government control from cradle to grave are good––and that the U.S. Constitution, capitalism, high employment, law and order, indeed patriotism are bad.

No one has spelled out the devolution of the Democrat Party and the key players responsible for its demise more comprehensively than writer Shari Goodman––read her entire article here!

WORSE THAN COVID-19

Since the election of 2016, when business mogul Donald J. Trump outsmarted 20 Republican opponents, all career politicians, and trounced Hillary in the Electoral College to win the presidency, Democrats seem to have contracted a mutating virus a thousand times worse than Covid-19.

The anti-Trump symptoms are identical in all of those “tolerant” Regressives:

• Shout down opposing views.
• Spew insults and epithets.
• Create falsehoods and pretend they’re true.
• Support the domestic anarchists and terrorists of Black Lives Matter and Antifa and the vast destruction they’ve sown for the last four months.
• Vow to vote for a seriously cognitively compromised candidate and a running mate who accused him of both racism and sexism.

Almost comical!

GETTING SERIOUS

Of course the real reason for this systemic derangement is that President Trump convincingly exposed the deep criminality of Big Government and the cozy arrangements that cost the American taxpayer billions of dollars each year:

• The Obama-Biden regime’s weaponizing of the FBI, CIA, and the FISA Court, et al, resulting in ongoing investigations which could and should land the principals of those organizations in Gitmo.
• The crooked money “arrangements” enjoyed by higher-ups like former VP Joe Biden in securing multimillion-and-billion-dollar windfalls for himself, his son Hunter and his brother James. Ukraine, anyone? China, anyone? There is this damning piece about the Biden Crime Family Inc.
• But worse is Debra Heine’s article about the explosive new documentary, “Red Dragon: Uncovering the Bidens’ Chinese Secrets” that “tells the hidden story of the secret financial relationship between Joe Biden’s family and the Chinese government, exposing how the Bidens’ business dealings even served the strategic interests of the Chinese military while Joe Biden was VP of the United States.”
• The horrible treaties, including the Iran deal, NAFTA, NATO, et al, that benefitted foreign countries significantly more than the U.S.
• The interest of the “anti-war” Democrats in keeping wars going endlessly (always follow the money).
• The degree to which lobbyists and the members of Congress they hire determine legislation that is good for their pocketbooks but not for We the People who they purport to represent.
• The utter impoverishment of Democrat philosophy and policy.

AND THE WINNERS ARE!

Candidates Biden and Kalamity are telling the American public that it is they––and not President Trump––who will bring America to its best days yet. Yet they admit they will:

• Raise taxes to unprecedented levels.
• Reinstall the strangulating regulations that President Trump did away with in order to allow Free Enterprise to flourish.

And, according to Sundance, Joe Biden opposes:

• Energy independence.
• Stable energy development for our economy, which is the backbone of manufacturing revitalization.
• Earth-mineral exploration and development.
• And he “promises to reattach our economy to the Paris Climate Treaty which will forever restrict the growth of American industry.”

Given all these economy-killing policies, the delusional Biden-Kalamity ticket continues to assure us every day that we should trust them to invigorate the economy and boost employment.

Almost comical!

Cui Bono––Who Benefits Under Biden-Kalamity?

Certainly not the Black community which has enjoyed the highest employment in American history under President Trump!

Certainly not the Blacks who have been imprisoned with disproportionately harsh sentences, but thanks to President Trump’s “First Step” program have been freed to enjoy gainful employment and their cherished freedom. By the way, where was the Obama-Biden tag team for eight years in bringing such life-enhancing legislation about?

Certainly not the Hispanic community which has also enjoyed record employment under President Trump’s policies.

Certainly not women who have enjoyed record employment under President Trump’s policies.

Certainly not the youth of our country who have enjoyed record employment under President Trump’s policies.

PLAN X

Think about it. Since Donald Trump and his gorgeous wife Melania came down the escalator in Trump Tower in June of 2015, every leftist pundit, commentator, TV anchor, sophisticated scribe and Hollywood ditzoid predicted––with amazing confidence and self-important arrogance––that “Donald Trump will not be President of the United States.” Here is my favorite clip of those always-wrong know-nothings.

Today, about six weeks from the election, all those brilliant Democrats––you know, the ones with the fancy college degrees, the impressive credentials, the high IQs, the decades in government service at the highest levels––are the same leftists who:

• Failed at the Russian hoax.
• Failed at the Ukraine hoax.
• Failed at the Impeachment hoax.

That’s a lot of failure. But it hasn’t stopped the Democrats from continuing to fail.

While President Trump is busy bringing about unprecedented breakthroughs in forging alliances between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Serbia and Kosovo, and now Israel and Bahrain––for which he has rightfully earned not one but two nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize––Democrats once again prove their idiocy by admitting that they loved when the arch-terrorist Yasir Arafat received the prize and when Barack Obama received it for….um…what???––but all of a sudden, they hate the Nobel Prize.

Almost comical!

PLAN Y

Now desperate, the Democrats trot out an article in the far-left Atlantic magazine that alleges that the president called American World War I veterans who died in France “suckers” and “losers.” This canard was an accusation not one person in America believes, given the president’s unequalled respect for and largesse to our military, including the massive build-up of the U.S. Military that the Obama-Biden regime eviscerated, emasculated, and tore down at every opportunity.

Where did this poison dart go? Another failure.

The next day, the same now-panicked leftists trotted out the “breaking,” “explosive,” and also go-nowhere revelation that Bob Woodward, the reporter for the fanatically anti-Trump Washington Post, revealed in his new book, Rage, that President Trump, gasp, didn’t want to panic the public and so played down the potentially dire information he was receiving about the China virus, Covid-19.

Imagine going to a doctor or bringing your child to a doctor, only to have that medical professional enter the room and tell you, “This is bad, very bad.” A sane person would call this doctor an alarmist and walk out of the room, outraged by his or her lack of empathy, lack of optimism, and failure to suggest a plan of action.

President Trump, on the other hand, demonstrated tremendous empathy for a scared public, the indomitable optimism that characterizes the American character, and an extensive plan of action that was implemented with seamless efficiency––all things that Doomsday Democrats hate!

Unfortunately for Woodward and his boss Jeff Bezos, this poison dart also failed because the American public that leftists hold in such contempt have eyes and ears and see for themselves what the president did to protect them, including immediately shutting down travel to the U.S. from China, and then from Europe, and then employing his vast executive experience in obtaining more personal-protective equipment and medically-outfitted ships and masks and respirators and testing than any country on earth––and in typically Trump record-breaking time.

PLAN Z

No doubt, these frantic, Democrats will keep up the anti-Trump drumbeat until Election Day on November 3^rd––fabricating explosive headlines, leveling damning accusations, and working overtime to rig the election.

But this effort will earn them a Z for zero success. That is because I suspect that most Democrats are not that dumb, that when they get into the voting booth and draw the curtain, and even when they fill out the mail-in voter forms, they will pull the lever or check the box for the man who promises––and has already delivered––peace and prosperity.

Every night for over 100 days, the entire American (and international) public has seen the criminals of Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa getting away not only with arson and theft and assault and harassment, but murder.

While this or that reporter stands directly in front of a government building or independent black- or white-owned business that has been set on fire, with flames soaring into the sky, and the sound of gunfire causes that reporter to flinch, duck, or run for cover, he or she insanely and steadfastly maintains that We the People––the highly intelligent American public––are not seeing what is right before our eyes!

When the leftist media tell us that the “protests” we’re seeing in dozens of Democrat-run cities throughout our country are “peaceful,” do these media lackeys really think we’re that stupid…or blind?

Every day and night for all these months, we’ve seen these bought-and-paid-for leftist media whores try to convince us that up is down, black is white, bad is good. Just a small sample of these electronic and print media fakes include:

• CBS-TV
• NBC-TV
• ABC-TV
• MSNBC-TV
• CNN-TV, et al …
• NPR radio…
• The NY Times
• The Washington Post
• The Los Angeles Times
• The Chicago Sun-Times, et al.

Emperor’s New Clothes, anyone?

DEMOCRAT SHEEP ON-BOARD

You can look at billions of leftist-generated e-mails, millions of Tweets, and multi-thousands of Letters to the editors of newspapers across the country––both in print and online––and find not one message of objection, disgust or fear about this escalating domestic-terrorism crime wave.

The only conclusion any sentient person can draw is that these Biden supporters approve of this violent criminal behavior, somehow believing that if enough chaos takes place, Americans will vote for the guy who promises to end it, ole basement Joe himself.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?

We all know that liberals love children. How much they lament the cages that illegal immigrant children were put in after they were constructed by the Obama-Biden regime.

How much they bemoan the multimillions of lives lost because of their belief––and legislation––in the extreme importance of routine abortion, mid-term abortion, late-term abortion, and post-birth abortions in which the lives of vibrant, living, fully-developed babies are, ahem, terminated.

How much they regret the disproportionate lives of aborted black babies in the Planned Parenthood centers they’ve purposely and disproportionately place in black neighborhoods.

And so it follows that these leftists––in their demonstrated respect for life––would teach their own children and grandchildren that if they don’t like someone’s opinion or style or philosophy, it’s perfectly acceptable to:

• Light that person’s car on fire,
• Punch that woman in the face and knock out her teeth and then throw her to the ground,
• Smash the windows of this guy’s homegrown business and steal all his goods,
• Blind that offender with a laser beam, or…
• Shoot him or her dead.

Indeed, this is what leftists are teaching their children and grandchildren by their unmistakable approval, indeed embrace, of the violence by BLM and Antifa over the past several months––a crime for which all of them should be indicted!

WE DON’T WANT NO SOLUTIONS!

President Trump has offered immediate help to all the mayors of the Democrat-run cities in which this violence is taking place, but following orders from the moneybags who are funding this mayhem, they refuse his offers, leaving the citizens they’ve taken an oath to protect in abject fear.

What a preview of our country if a Democrat is even voted for dogcatcher, much less president!

It’s not a recent observation on my part; it goes back decades, so I’ve had a long time to figure out the meaning of this peculiar phenomenon. Specifically, it’s that Conservatives like me seem to enjoy the lion’s share of being in a good mood, feeling optimistic, trusting that the many forms of rugged individualism can solve most problems, smiling easily and often, and generally seeing both the present and future as glasses half full.

Not one of these things can be said of leftists, and nothing brought that truth more vividly alive than watching the Democrat and Republican conventions in August.

DEMOCRAT DOOM….

On the one hand was the virtual presentation of a pitifully diminished candidate, propped up by a long line of speakers who had only bitter, nasty, negative and of course pessimistic things to say about our country. Did I forget racist? Here, writer Thomas Gallatin discusses Michelle Obama’s unfortunate presentation and the irony of a “party that loves to claim for itself the mantel of ‘diversity’ and ‘anti-racism’ [being] the same party that promotes racist identity politics.”

Not a single smile in four days––only relentless negativity. And not one word––from candidate Biden, VP candidate Kalamity Harris, the speakers, or their leftwing media whores––about the nearly three-month, non-stop rampaging destruction by the communist group Black Lives Matter and the anarchists of Antifa in committing daily and nightly acts of:

• Arson,
• Tearing down both black and white businesses,
• Destroying historical statuary
• Widespread grand theft,
• Violent assaults,
• Murder.

And of  course no mention in the entire Democrat convention that the crimes of these Biden supporters were taking place, significantly, in dozens of Democrat-run cities, including Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Kenosha, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York City, Phoenix, Portland, Richmond, Seattle, St. Louis, Washington, D.C., on and on.

Even after the convention, Biden had nothing to say about the escalating violence until just the other day when his poll numbers plunged precipitously. It took him 86 days of silence before he called the criminal chaos we have all been witnessing day and night “needless”––something you would tell a waitress who brought you an extra fork. As NY radio host Mark Simone tweeted about Biden’s milquetoast response: “What a profile in courage!”

REPUBLICAN BOOM…

In dramatic contrast, the live Republican convention––“Honoring the Great American Story” ––featured a president, VP, and numerous speakers and guests who conveyed boundless optimism and celebrated:

• Just a few of the president’s mind-bending accomplishments in less than four years.
• The genuine diversity and success stories of the past four years,
• The heroism of our military and police forces,
• The winding down of Covid-19,
• The waking up of the greatest economy (and employment) in American history,
• Ambitious plans for a safe and prosperous future.

Smiles all around.

THE BIDEN NO NONO FACTOR

Joe Biden has to say no to running on the economy because he and the community organizer he served under ran one of the worst economies in modern times.

Joe Biden has to say no to running on domestic security because he and the Choom Gang guy he served under not only supported open borders but constructed the “cages” to hold children not yet processed into the system.

Joe Biden has to say no to running on national security because he and the Iran-infatuated man he served under supported and gave billions of dollars to that terrorist nation.

THE BIDEN YES, YES, YES FACTOR

However, the Mission Statement of Joe Biden––and the Democratic National Committee––has a great number of platforms he says yes to. Their goals, states writer Linda Goudsmit, are Humanitarian Hoaxes––“deliberate and deceitful tactics of presenting destructive policies as altruistic.”

• Joe says YES to Open Borders. This “power grab,” says Goudsmit, has the “twin benefits of overwhelming the country with illegals who will vote for the Democrats who let them in, and collapsing the economy by overloading the welfare system––it is the destructive socialists’ Cloward-Piven Strategy on steroids.”
• Joe says YES to educational indoctrination through the Common Core, ahem, “standards” that were introduced during the Obama-Biden years. This “anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, pro-Muslim” agenda, Goudsmit explains, “rejects American sovereignty, American exceptionalism, American Judeo-Christian traditions, and the American meritocracy,” and will indoctrinate our school children “to be self-loathing Americans.”
• Joe says YES to the economy-killing Green New Deal, the brainchild of freshman radical Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). According to writer Monica Showalter, this “vaunted idea was a mess of teenage-looking brainstorms devoted to creating a teenager’s vision of Utopia, cooked up from the fervid imagination of a 29-year-old bartender.” Not only would its followers continue their fetish with the hoax of global warming, but they would impose costly Draconian rules for the rest of us to abide by.
• Joe says YES to socialized medicine like Obamacare, a healthcare delivery system that has failed in every country on which it has ever been inflicted.
• Joe says YES to the current, Obama-created “Resistance” movement until the thugs and anarchists he so tepidly chastised the other day complete their work by invading the suburbs with their “13% Racial Housing Solution,” eliminating both the concept and reality of law and order, and completing their destruction of the capitalist system under which America became and remains the most powerful and generous country in world history.
• And Joe definitely says YES to sky-high taxes and strangulating regulations, which is immutably encoded in Democrat DNA

And if a Biden regime should ever come to pass, and all of the Democrat dreams come true, you can bet that we will witness four years of the same dour expressions, chronic complaints, and a complete absence of smiles.

A DIAGNOSIS FOR THE DSM-5

And if a Biden regime should ever come to pass, and all of the Democrat dreams come true, you can bet that we will witness four years of the same dour expressions, chronic complaints, and a complete absence of smiles.

It is now so obvious that Democrats don’t smile because they suffer from a low-level of chronic depression and anxiety. Even in victory, their smiles appear forced and phony. Even when they’re in power, they see doom and gloom everywhere, victims around every corner, the sky always falling, the glass inevitably half empty.

In short, they don’t feel good….they feel bad. If you eat something bad, you can vomit it out. But when you feel bad and want to get rid of the feeling, you use projection––a psychological defense mechanism in which people attribute characteristics they find unacceptable in themselves to others. That’s why today’s Democrats project all of their terrible choices and failings onto President Trump. It’s simply another form of vomit.

This symptomology has remained so consistent for so many decades that it’s surprising that this form of subclinical depression and agitation hasn’t yet shown up in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). This is probably because so many clinicians are or should be classified themselves as DDDOPE––Depressed Democrats Denying Objective Proof Eternally.

Of course leftists rationalize that they care more, have more empathy and sympathy, etc. Don’t be fooled. They suffer from an untreated mental condition that no amount of windmills, high taxes, open borders, third-term abortions and street anarchy will ever cure!

At the virtual Democrat National Convention last week––where the Democratic National Committee removed the word God from the Pledge of Allegiance––the public was treated to tasteless and remarkably unfunny jokes from Hollywood’s Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and a video featuring Donna Hylton who spent 27 years in prison for the grisly murder and torture of Thomas Vigliarolo, a NY businessman found stuffed inside a steamer trunk and left to rot in Harlem.

NO BELLE MICHELLE

Then there was Michelle Obama telling Americans to ‘go high’ after her husband tried to destroy candidate and then President Trump by weaponizing all of our intelligence agencies against him. Ironically, this is the same woman who proved that you can’t go any lower than the sentiment she expressed at the age of 44 that she was never proud to be an American until her husband was nominated to the U.S. presidency. Imagine, this Princeton and Harvard Law graduate lived almost five decades having to tolerate the bitter taste of American citizenship. And to prove plus ça change, her speech demonstrated that the bitterness bitterly lingers on.

REPRESENTING THE RELIGION OF PEACE

Then there was speaker Noman Hussain, an Imam affiliated with the Texas-based Qalam Institute, which advocates for “the use of female sex slaves, the killing of adulterers, and the incitement of hatred against Jews.”

THE PARTY’S MORAL COMPASS

Americans also got to see what one pundit called “the Party’s moral compass,” Bill Clinton, whose speech was preceded by the release of a photo showing one of Jeffery Epstein’s accusers giving the former president a shoulder massage.

Journalist Matt Vespa offered this critique: “It was a rather flat repudiation [of Trump] if anything. Bill just doesn’t have the mojo to deliver the heavy hits anymore. He looked tired…[he] did this as a Party favor.” But “unlike his succubus wife, [he] has political skills. He is personable. He is likable. He’s framed Joe as the anti-Trump…[but] it’s not enough to win. Romney was the anti-Obama. John Kerry was the anti-Bush. Both guys lost.”

HE WAS IN VIETNAM, YOU KNOW

Speaking of Kerry, “it took approximately 20 seconds” for the former Secretary of State “to drop the first flagrant lie…when he claimed that the Obama administration’s so-called Iran deal had ‘eliminated the threat of an Iran with a nuclear weapon,’” wrote  journalist David Harsanyi.

Kerry knew, Harsanyi continues, “that Israel uncovered a giant cache of documents with instructions on how to jump-start a program to build a nuclear arsenal.Time keeps proving John Kerry wrong. He’s just mad that Trump’s foreign policy is working far better than his.”

“SERIALKILLER”

And who can forget the oleaginous Governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, who presented himself, according to Jake Lahut of BusinessInsider.com , “asa standard-bearer for the nation’s fight against the pandemic, calling for a better federal response than the Trump administration’s,” which Cuomo called “too sluggish.”

That’s really funny, coming from the guy who desperately called the president because of his own failure to order ventilators, which the president delivered in record time. Cuomo is also the guy who in a state of hysteria told the president he didn’t have enough beds and the president sent two massive, medically-outfitted ships and set up other medical facilities in world-class time, only to learn that Cuomo didn’t know what he was talking about––no additional ventilators or beds were needed!

Worse, according to journalist Daniel John Sobieski, Gov. Cuomo is a serial killer, guilty of “criminal negligence in ushering patients infected with the Chinese Wuhan virus”––which Cuomo calls the European virus––“into New York nursing homes, sentencing tens of thousands of vulnerable seniors to death.”

Sobieski says Cuomo’s distortions and invented facts and vilification of President Trump are all “obscene lies.” He cites New York Post columnist Miranda Devine who recently noted that Cuomo was still sending COVID patients into nursing homes, not only failing to protect the most vulnerable but deliberately putting them at risk.”

TA DA––THE NOMINEE!

And to top it off was the candidate himself, who was proud to admit that his daughter is so enamored of the recently indicted rap singer Cardi B that he agreed to an interview with her, but mercifully did not play her newest hit, WAP, perhaps the filthiest “song” I’ve ever heard.

Ole Joe got through his speech creditably, notwithstanding the disturbingly vacant look in his eyes.

But oh no! Say it ain’t so, Joe! As journalist Breck Dumas reported,even during the broadcast of Biden’s acceptance speech, a Twitter storm was “accusing Biden of lifting the words of departed liberal Canadian politician Jack Layton, who passed away in 2011––comparing the parting words of Biden’s speech to the final words of Jack Layton’s farewell letter before his death.”

Biden’s speech, a tweeter noted, said: “For love is more powerful than hate. Hope is more powerful than fear. Light is more powerful than dark. This is our moment. This is our mission.”Layton’s quote read, “My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world.”

Of course, Biden has been accurately accused of plagiarism for decades. But in this case, we can only conclude that his handlers and writers are plagiarists too.

FIREWORKS ….MINUS

The convention even had fireworks. Only one thing was missing. In the entire event, there was not ONE WORD mentioned of the months-long violence taking place in Democrat-run cities throughout our country––the short list includes Portland, Seattle, Chicago, Atlanta, Minneapolis, Baltimore, New York City––and the massive destruction wrought by the communist group Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa: widespread arson, massive destruction of property, including historic statues and local white and black businesses, wanton attacks on innocent people, intimidation and harassment, et al.

And not ONE WORD about the actions of the emboldened BLM and Antifa thugs as they marched into the suburbs of Seattle and demanded that those over-privileged, capitalist, bad bad bad white people give their homes to Black people.

Why? Because as you can see by the behavior of the mayors who run those cities, it’s perfectly okay with them as long as they serve the “big picture” goal of the Democrat Party, i.e., to have things get so bad that there is no choice but to turn to Big Government to intervene, take over, and run all of our lives from cradle to grave.

That is why your vote in November is really between Communism and Freedom!

Calamity Jane was a frontier heroine in the mid-19^th century who during an uprising in 1872, saved a Captain Egan from certain death, whereupon he told her: “I name you Calamity Jane, the heroine of the plains.”

This is in stark contrast to Kalamity Kamala of 21^st century America, who would accelerate the downfall of our Democratic Republic in the unlikely event of a Biden-Kalamity win on November 3^rd.

Why? Because Biden and Kalamity are promising to resurrect the failed policies of the Obama years, and inflict even more damage on America the Beautiful.

According to author and television host Mark Levin, although the media are rushing to portray California’s junior senator as a moderate, nothing could be further from the truth.

She is the “most extremist radical politician ever to run for high office” in the U.S.A., Levin states, even “farther left than 97% of the Democrats in the U.S. Senate,” even “left of avowed Marxist Democratic socialist Bernie Sanders.”

Levin and his guest attorney Mark Pulliam provided several examples. Kalamity Kamala, they said:

• Rejects a physical wall on the Southern border.
• Compared ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service) to the Ku Klux Klan.
• Believes in government-run health care for illegal aliens.
• Believes in the elimination of private health care.
• Believes in the Green New Deal which would bankrupt our country.
• Wants to repeal the president’s tax cuts for the middle class.
• Wants to massively increase taxes on all Americans.

When it comes to support for Jewish issues in America as well as support for Israel, the estimable Daniel Greenfield in his powerful article, The Democrat Party is Getting Rid of Jews, has a warning:

“Obama and Harris both signed off on Iran’s nuclear program and the flow of money to terrorists.” In addition, “While Harris has been depicted as a moderate, her chief of staff, Karine Jean-Pierre, was the national spokeswoman and senior adviser for MoveOn, the radical group [with] a long history of trafficking in anti-Semitism and attacking the Jewish State.”

And, Greenfield reminds us, Kalamity Kamala is a full-throated supporter of the virulently anti-Semitic members of the so-called “Squad”––Cong. Ihlan Omar (D-MN), Cong. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Cong. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Cong. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and all the others who avidly support both the Boycott-Divest-Sanction (BDS) movement to destroy Israel economically and to deny foreign aid to America’s staunchest ally in the Middle East.

In a chilling but all-too-credible warning, Greenfield says that “Jewish Democrats who imagine that Israel is the problem are about to learn they’re the problem.”

CENSORSHIP TO THE RESCUE

Clearly, the Democrat Party poohbahs recognize the liability Kalamity Kamala poses to a November victory and so, according to reporter Andrew Stiles of the Washington Free Beacon, an active campaign involving Democrat Party operatives like Obama handler Valerie Jarrett, Regressive activists, and all of the predictable media whores are declaring that any criticism of her be off limits.

The long list of words the media is forbidden to use include, among others: “ambitious,” “angry,” “unlikeable,” and “unqualified.” Don’t report on the “heritage” of non-white candidates is another directive, and don’t publish unflattering images.

And to anyone who does these sinful things, the self-appointed guardians of the Biden-Kalamity Censorship Committee are advised to use the magic formula: Cry “racist”––and then throw in “sexist”!

All of us can see the pitiful cognitive decline of Mr. Biden. But wasn’t Kamala chosen to cover for him, to be his pit bull, to prove to people she was capable of taking her seat in the Oval Office––unfortunately when and not if Biden’s rapid decline continues?

Now this committee is telling us that the entire Biden-Kalamity ticket is so vulnerable, indeed fragile, that it cannot withstand legitimate criticism, probing policy and personal questions, and what most of the country continues to cherish as a bedrock American value: Free Speech!

These are today’s Democrats––camouflage the ailing and failing and prettify the ambitious, angry, unlikeable and unqualified––or else!

Yet, laughably, Democrats continue to entertain the conceit that they are tolerant.

A THANK YOU IS IN ORDER

Actually, the Biden-Kalamity Censorship Committee has precedent. In 2007, a leftwing journalist named Ezra Klein formed a group called Journ Olist which consisted of 400 equally leftist journalists, ostensibly to discuss politics but in fact to insult, degrade, vilify, marginalize and generally try to destroy anyone who disagreed with their largely radical points of view.

The “O” stood for the man then ascending in the political world who two years later would find himself at the pinnacle of power in the White House. One of Journ Olist’s first tasks was to savage anyone who questioned Mr. Obama’s viciously anti-American and anti-Semitic pastor of 20 years, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Their magic formula was to call anyone who said or wrote anything negative about Obama a “racist.”

Journ Olist members continued to hurl “racist” accusations at Obama’s critics for eight long years. What Americans learned from those overwhelmingly false charges was that weak and insecure people cave when people called them names but strong and confident people see the accusations for what they are––transparent attempts to intimidate them into silence.

Multi millions of Americans, including me, have to thank the Journ Olist “strategy” because it succeeded in bringing to America the quintessentially strong and confident leader––President Donald J. Trump––who in less than four years has truly transformed our country into a flourishing Democratic Republic.

Why is that relevant today? Because President Trump recognizes that in every law, policy, philosophy, deal and strategy that Obama employed, VP Biden was right by his side, supporting every action and touting it enthusiastically on his globetrotting travels.And worse, with far-far left Kalamity Kamala now by his side, Biden’s plan to resurrect Obama’s policies would be even more extreme.

Keep that in mind when you read this brief review of what Barack Obama inflicted on our country and what President Trump fixed:

• Obama-Biden eviscerated our military and President Trump reconstituted it to become the strongest military in the world.
• Obama-Biden had a failed economy and chronically unemployed citizens and President Trump boosted employment to the highest levels in American history––including Black employment, Hispanic employment, women’s employment, and youth employment.
• Obama-Biden displayed visceral antagonism to our most reliable Mideast ally and President Trump told the entire world that America stands with Israel. He recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and moved the American embassy there; recognized Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights and now forged the first deal between Israel and an Arab state in 26 years––that of the now-promising partnership between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, with more Arab states coming on board in the near future.
• Obama-Biden’s genocidal-to-Israel deal with Iran allowed the terrorist state to develop nuclear weapons and President Trump cancelled it, although he couldn’t recoup the $150-billion in cold hard cash that Obama & Co. shipped in pallets to Iran, all while the Mullahs were promising––as they are to this very day––to wipe Israel off the map.
• Obama-Biden continued America’s decades-long dependence on foreign oil and President Trump made America completely energy independent.

BUT, BUT, BUT….

But Kalamity Kamala is only a Vice Presidential candidate, you may say. It’s the President who formulates the policies, determines the direction of our nation, and makes the decisions. Why such a brouhaha about her?

It is not only because candidate Biden’s handlers have succeeded in moving the once-vital politician to the far left, but because the far-far left is where Kalamity Kamala lives.

In a lacerating profile of Kalamity Kamala, journalist Ixtu Diaz says that after reading thousands of pages about her, she is a woman “who boasts of instilling fear in her opponents, who despises individual freedom, and who rages at half the planet for being men or for not thinking like her.”

“But let’s not fool ourselves,” Diaz continues, “Kamala won’t be Biden’s VP. Biden will be Kamala’s president only if she gets up in a good enough mood to give him permission. She has two big things going for her: that she is a woman and that she is black––a truly extraordinary feat that has never been accomplished by anyone before.

“She certainly deserves an award, although perhaps the vice presidency of a government without a president is excessive.”

Now that would be a true calamity!

In 1984, David S. Wyman, a professor of history at Amherst College, published The Abandonment of the Jews: America and the Holocaust 1941–1945, in which he documented the degree to which leftist icons like President Franklin Delano Roosevelt were presented with irrefutable evidence of Jewish genocide and did nothing to stop the mass murder of six-million Jews in Hitler’s Europe.

Jewish leaders who were given an “audience” with FDR implored him, beseeched him to intervene in this unprecedented annihilation, and showed him graphic evidence of:

• Jews being herded into asphyxiating cattle cars on their way to concentration camps,
• Jewish infants and children being ripped from the arms of their parents,
• Jews clawing at the walls of gas chambers until their last gasping deaths.

But FDR did nothing! If there is blood on the hands of any politician in the last thousand years, it is on the hands of Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

And yet, leftist American Jews––to this day––celebrate his presidency.

Now we know why, thanks to a few honest historians, among them Rafael Medoff who wrote The Jews Should Keep Quiet: Franklin D. Roosevelt, Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, and the Holocaust and The Deafening Silence: American Jewish Leaders and the Holocaust, and Lucy Dawidowicz who wrote The War Against the Jews: 1933-1945.

Why? Because to leftists like FDR and his toadying adherents, nothing on earth took precedence over actualizing their political agenda, which was––and remains to this day––total government control over the immensely stupid masses, the deplorables, the people who don’t understand the imperative of handing over their destinies to the Regressive powers-that-be.

Many of the Jews who survived the Holocaust and ended up in America had already been physically, mentally and emotionally destroyed and wanted desperately to be in the good graces of anyone who promised to protect them––a sentiment that savvy leftist politicians like FDR were quick to exploit.

Aiding and abetting Roosevelt––and every Democrat regime to this day––were the leftwing media, the same media that covered for the socialist phony FDR, concealed his racism and camouflaged his anti-Semitism.

Today these media whores are doing the exact same thing in covering for the Obama-Biden regime that we now know are mobilizing their virulently anti-Semitic minions––including the Jew haters in Black Lives Matter and Antifa––to demonize Jews and Israel relentlessly and ruthlessly every day in every way.

A BRIEF RESPITE

After the Holocaust, American Jews still suffered from the vicious quotas imposed on them by major universities like Harvard and Yale, and many other institutions of “higher” learning. Also by medical schools that wouldn’t accept them and law firms that wouldn’t hire them––the reason why so many major medical institutions and powerful law practices in America were established by Jews. But for the most part florid anti-Semitism went underground because the growing awareness of Hitler’s genocide silenced even the most fanatical Jew haters.

Even though Jews had arrived on America’s shores centuries ago––since colonial times––and loved and embraced the freedom that America promised, and contributed mightily to the betterment of our country, the metastatic virus of Jew Hatred followed them.

In response, Jewish community leaders established organizations to combat the hatred, to provide crucial and illuminating information to the uninformed, and to support political figures who enacted legislation against Jew haters and other racists.

HELP IS ON THE WAY

Jewish advocacy organizations functioned with tremendous efficacy, many for over a century, before they were contaminated and compromised––starting in the 1960s––by leftist Jews who replaced Judaism with their new-found religion of “social justice.”

Today, most of those once-powerful organizations are wholly-owned and controlled by leftist billionaires with a fetish for multiculturalism–– the notion that Jews who build symphonies and medical centers in Israel are equal to “Palestinians” who strap homicide bombs onto their three-year-olds.

They also subscribe to political correctness––the idea that organized anti-Semitic groups on college campuses throughout our country can express their hatred for Jews and Israel at will under the rubric of Free Speech, but that Jewish students who protest these assaults can be physically and verbally attacked with total impunity because of cowardly college presidents who are either anti-Semites themselves or have been handsomely paid-off by leftist moneybags or Arab money.

A particularly egregious case is that of college student Louis Shenker––chillingly documented by writer Victor Rosenthal––whose time spent at UMass made him the triple victim of the hate-conservatives/hate-Jews/hate-Trump students and its faculty which relentlessly harassed, tortured and expelled him on false grounds. Shenker’s lawyers are now asking for $27 million in penalties for the school’s violence against him.

FAKE ADVOCATES

Dozens of Jewish organizations have prostituted themselves by throwing their lot into the leftist realm, foolishly believing, against a 5,000-year history, that they––and not the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob––will prevail in determining the future of Judaism. Because of space limitations, I can only mention a few.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), founded in 1913, aggressively and successfully fulfilled its mission to “stop the defamation of the Jewish people” until 102 years after its founding, when in 2015, Jonathan Greenblatt became the ADL’s national director and CEO. Greenblatt worked for three far-left regimes antagonistic to Israel––the Clinton administration, the Obama fiasco, and the George Soros-funded far-left Aspen Institute. Now Mr. Greenblatt sounds deranged when he states that “only a small number” of the Black Lives Matter anarchy group don’t like Jews, when he knows full well that it is one of the most rabidly Jew- and Israel-loathing groups in the world!

According to Rabbi Aryeh Spero, president of the Conference of Jewish Affairs title, “…the ADL has made its focus the destruction of political conservatism and President Trump.  Worse, under Mr. Greenblatt, it has betrayed its original mission of fighting anti-Semites by forging a new partnership with one of America’s most notorious anti-Semites, Al Sharpton…. he has made the ADL a defamation.”

The ADL is not worth ten cents of any sane Jew’s contribution.

The Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations (CoP), founded in 1956, was, as writer Jonathan S. Tobin thoroughly documents, “the central address for American-Jewish political interests.” But today many of its 53-member groups are neither “major” nor “influential—let alone representative of American Jewry,” Tobin says.

In fact, in 2020, the CoP elected Dianne Lob, the former head of the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), a Jewish group whose purpose was to facilitate absorption of immigrants and refugees, but whose mission today is to help refugees from Muslim and other countries. According to the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), Ms. Lob has also “collaborated with anti-Israel organizations like J Street and If Not Now and supported noted anti-Semite Linda Sarsour.”

The CoP is not worth ten cents of any sane Jew’s contribution.

AIPAC (The American Israel Public Affairs Committee) was founded in 1951 to promote the alliance between the United States and Israel to the Senate and House of Representatives––the U.S. Congress.

For decades, AIPAC sponsored conferences in Washington, D.C. featuring prominent pro-Israel American politicians and other luminaries. I personally attended a couple of these conferences and was immensely encouraged by AIPAC’s unwavering support for always-besieged Israel.

That ended the day I saw with my own eyes all the bigwigs at AIPAC give a standing ovation to the Oval Office occupant Barack Obama––who loathed Israel, spit in the face of Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and gave Israel’s mortal enemy Iran over a billion dollars in cash to make the nukes they promised every day––to this very day––would destroy Israel forever.

AIPAC is not worth ten cents of any sane Jew’s contribution.

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY OF JEW HATE

Today, less than three months from a presidential election, the Democrat Party––long hailed as a stalwart friend of Israel and the Jewish people––has gone full-bore anti-Semitic.

All Congressional Democrats take their marching orders from Senate Minority Speaker Chuck Schumer and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, who has done the following:

• Thrown her full support behind “the squad” of outspoken Jew haters Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Rep Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortex (D-NY), et al.
• Funneled $14,000 to Ilhan Omar’s campaign as well as endorsed both Omar and Tlaib against moderates running against them.
• Had not one word of objection when Ocasio-Cortez, the leader of the anti-Israel campaign, threatened to cut off military aid to Israel.

As writers Jeff Ballabon and Bruce Abramson describe in repulsive detail, in “The Democrats Declare a Jew Ban,” Biden’s 2020 presidential platform treats “Jews and Israel as pariahs, uniquely worthy of discriminatory treatment.  It makes a mockery of Israel as a sovereign state and an American ally. It directly aligns the Biden campaign—and the entire Party—with Israel’s mortal enemies.”

The writers continue: “Outgoing Secretary of State Kerry announced that when Democrats were back in power they would punish Israel for its stubborn refusal to be bullied into suicidal positions ‘for the sake of peace.’ Biden’s platform delivers on that threat.”

JEWISH POLITICAL STUPIDITY EXPLAINED

In a tour-de-force article in which she lists dozens of anti-Semitic actions taken by Democrat Party elected officials and supporters, writer Valerie Sobel spells out why a “resounding 72-74% majority of the 5.4-million American Jews have backed the Party since the sun has risen in the East.”

“We get it, Sobel elaborates, “you’re for minority rights because you will forever identify as a minority. You’re forever for JFK even though his brand of liberalism is long gone and has actually morphed into modern conservatism. You’re forever for FDR, even though it was the Republican Ronald Reagan who delivered approximately 3,000,000 Soviet Jews from bondage of anti-Semitic leftist oppression. The Democratic Party of the 1950s was the party of the underdog, and you’re forever the underdog, in your mind….”

Alluding to the upcoming vote in November, Sobel says that it’s not the 1950s anymore, and “after the devastating failure of your Party to stand with Jews unequivocally against the rabid Nazi-era anti-Semitism of Democrat Congresswoman [Ihlan] Omar, you stand in the final hour of a critical decision, depleted of all excuses for your political loyalty. And you know it.”

Yoo Hoo, Jewish Democrats, it is long overdue for you to wake up and smell the now-contaminated coffee. A vote for Joe Biden is a full-on endorsement of the poisonous Jew hatred that has commandeered the Democrat Party and told you––meaning all Jews including left-wingers––that they hate you personally and they hate Israel so much that they share the identical mission of the mullahs in Iran to literally exterminate the only Jewish state in existence.

Your choice.

Joan Swirsky Interviews author Linda Goudsmit on her recently published opus, The Book of Humanitarian Hoaxes: Killing America with ‘Kindness’.

Joan (JS): Linda…when did you have the blazing insight that what you were witnessing in the politics of American leftists were not sincere efforts to improve the system, but rather elaborate hoaxes designed to destroy our country?  

Linda (LG): From 2017 to 2019––I wrote a number of articles in response to current events. At about the third article, I realized that there was a consistent pattern of leftist political policies that were presented as altruistic, but in  reality were deceitful, tactical, political strategies deliberately designed to collapse––to destroy––America from within.

JS: Indeed, your book spells out the quite astounding number of 50 Humanitarian Hoaxes! And quite courageously, you identify the culprits you believe are responsible for this malevolent con job on America. I must add here that readers can also access your articles at: lindagoudsmit.com and goudsmit.pundicity.com

LG: Yes, there are many perpetrators of this stealth attack––and malevolence describes its destructiveness. But the Huckster-in-Chief is Barack Hussein Obama who, from his first appearance on the national and international stage, proclaimed his intention to “fundamentally transform America.” Of course, most Americans had no idea that Obama’s goal was to replace our constitutional republic with socialism. We are witnessing the extraordinary success of his seditious plan today.

As I explain in my book, it takes ideology and money to fundamentally transform America. Obama’s anti-American, pro-Muslim, Marxist ideology is taught through Common Core in schools across America. The Black Lives Matter and Antifa so-called protestors who are rampaging through our country today, toppling historical statues and proclaiming their goal to destroy our Constitutional Republic, are actually graduates of our own public school system. They are acting with the incitement of Obama’s resistance group, Organizing for Action (OFA),as well as with the collusion of the globalist media, the collaboration of the RINOs and corrupt radical leftist Democrats in Congress, and the cooperation of Democrat mayors and governors––all of them financed courtesy of their globalist handlers.

JS: And you elaborate in your book what their end game is.

LG: Yes, for these Marxists, the end game of socialism is communism. But for the globalists who finance their mayhem, the end game of socialism is the new world order––a one-world government ruled by the globalist elite themselves, of course! BLM and Antifa are simply useful idiots. Their supporters are low-information individuals who have no clue that the globalists bankrolling this global anarchy and social chaos fully intend to impose a one-world government through the auspices of the United Nations.

JS: In your book, you also describe how both corporate sponsors and businesses support radical groups like BLM and Antifa. 

LG: Yes––follow the money. It’s always about following the money. The corporate sponsors of BLM and Antifa, et al, know exactly what the plan is. The 279 globalist companies currently supporting BLM, for instance, manufacture their goods with cheap labor in China. President Trump put the hurt on China with his devastating tariffs and it is a financial nightmare for these globalist companies. They want to get rid of Trump and go back to business as usual with a guy like Biden—a corrupt Democrat tool of the globalists and communist Chinese.

JS: The whole notion of a hoax is something that fools both the American and the international public. What ingredients do you believe went into fooling such a massive number of people when it came to electing an inexperienced community organizer to the presidency of the U.S.?

LG: After WWII it was obvious to the entire world that America could not be defeated militarily. But our enemies did not go quietly into the night. They regrouped and revised their tactical attack plan as an insidious Culture War designed to collapse America from within. They targeted the three supporting pillars of American society––Family, Faith, and Flag. They pitted American capitalism vs socialism, American individualism vs socialist collectivism, American freedom vs cradle-to-grave dependency on government. And then they groomed the perfect candidate, Barack Obama, to do their bidding.

JS: You’ve written in depth about the two main weapons in the Culture War.

LG: Yes. They are: (1) psychological regression and (2) disinformation. Radical leftist Democrats routinely engage in political correctness, moral relativism, and historical revisionism, all basic operating principles of the disinformation campaign. Children do not question what they are told––and neither do psychologically regressed, propagandized leftist liberals, who happen to be chronological adults. They really are Regressives, not Progressives. You can see this every day when perfectly normal-looking people embody the Humanitarian Hoax behaviors described in my book. They are emotional children disguised as adults.

JS: Which of the 50 humanitarian hoaxes you’ve written about is most relevant in today’s society?

LG: The Humanitarian Hoax of Eternal Childhood. It explains in explicit detail the crippling effect of pressuring a society toward regression and dependence rather than emotional maturity and independence. Again, we see this today in the young people, who have been dumbed down in America’s public schools, willingly taking money to “protest” a system they are ignorant of. Watch them being interviewed—it’s a national embarrassment!

JS: To tantalize our readers, please explain briefly the following Humanitarian Hoaxes (HH):

LG: Diversity is presented as leftist tolerance, inclusiveness, and compassion. In reality, there is NO diversity of opinion tolerated by the Left. Leftist diversity is presented as altruism but designed to eliminate freedom of thought and freedom of speech.

Man-made Climate Change is presented as the most serious challenge facing humanity. The leftist narrative claims all efforts must be directed at saving the planet from global warming or we will all perish in 12 years. In reality, climate-change hysteria is the United Nations’ political scheme to transfer the wealth of productive industrialized nations (especially the U.S.) to non-industrialized, non-productive nations. It is globalized socialism.

Gun Control is presented as an effort to reduce gun violence in society. In reality, gun control is the effort to eliminate the Second Amendment and disarm the public, something our Founding Fathers were determined to avoid.

Community Organizing is presented as the altruistic effort to end poverty. In reality, community organizing is the Cloward-Piven strategy to overload the welfare system and collapse the U.S. economy.

The Muslim Brotherhood presents itself as a civil rights organization advocating peace and tolerance. In reality, the Brotherhood’s mission is to subjugate host populations in North America and replace host religions and cultures with Islam and Sharia law.

Planned Parenthood presents itself as the ultimate healthcare provider to an underserved population and a provider of sex-education to schools. In reality, Planned Parenthood is an active participant in the Culture War on America, attempting to promote gender confusion, promiscuous sex, and unrestricted abortion-on-demand.

JS: The readers you’ve inspired over the past several years want to know what’s next?

LG: Of course I will continue to write political analysis for adults. My focus, however, is on America’s children. It is essential that American children are taught critical-thinking skills again. My personal contribution to that effort is my children’s picture-book series, Mimi’s Strategies. Nationally, the Department of Education must be completely overhauled in both form and content. If one more generation of American children is indoctrinated with anti-American propaganda touting the wonders of collectivism, when these mal-informed kids turn 18 and vote for socialism we will lose the country ––a revolution without bullets!

JS: In less than three months, we will vote in perhaps the most consequential presidential election in American history. In terms of today’s tumultuous politics––a president dealing with an unprecedented pandemic and severely injured economy, his rival clearly dealing with clinical cognitive impairment, a radical leftist media not even pretending to be objective, and a push for mail-in voting which is notorious for massive voter fraud––what is your gut instinct about the upcoming presidential election on November 3, 2020?

LG: I remain optimistic, Joan. I wrote The Book of Humanitarian Hoaxes in advance of the 2020 presidential election to make sure voters know WHAT they are voting for, not just WHO they are voting for. This is no small thing. This election is between Trump’s Americanism and Biden’s globalism.

The radical leftist Democrat Party has an anti-American, socialist agenda that seeks to weaken America. They have ignored WHAT President Trump has accomplished to strengthen America and, instead, engaged in four-years of character assassination and false accusations to destroy Trump and his America-first agenda.

President Donald Trump is the existential enemy of globalism. His proud and unapologetic America-first policies are the intractable obstacle to Obama’s insidious plan to transform America into socialism—the stepping stone to globalism’s one-world government. The Democrats have shown they will lie, cheat, and try to steal the election to defeat Trump and bury the serious and indictable crimes the Obama regime has committed.

However, I just don’t think Americans are buying what the Democrats are selling. I believe Trump will be reelected in a landslide.

“Trump Spares Stone from Imprisonment, Sparking Howls of Amnesiac Democrats” was the colorful headline of a recent Wall St. Journal by journalist, author and former Asst. U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of NY, Andrew C. McCarthy.

The “Stone” in the headline referred to Roger Stone, a longtime associate of President Trump who was sentenced to 40 months in prison two years ago for lying to Congress, among other counts, during the failed fiasco of the Mueller investigation into the non-existent collusion of then-candidate Trump with Russian operatives to rig the 2016 election in his favor.

Stone, now 67, was arrested in a predawn raid on his home by a heavily armed SWAT team, a saga that was “coincidentally” caught by a CNN camera crew who just happened to be parked outside his home at 4 a.m. Imagine that.

Roger Stone celebrates his commutation outside his home in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., July 10, 2020. (Joe Skipper/Reuters)

According to Jan Wolfe from Reuters, Stone had connections to the WikiLeaks website, which released damaging emails about Trump’s election rival Hillary Clinton. Uh oh…can’t have those damning e-mails released. Hence the sadistically harsh sentence––the original recommendation was seven-to-nine years––and the brouhaha about Stone’s commutation.

Of course, the leftwing media were “outraged,” “shocked,” “appalled” at President Trump’s miscarriage of justice, although interestingly the president didn’t issue a full pardon, so the felony conviction of Mr. Stone still stands, as does his appeal.

GLARING HYPOCRISY

But you would think, as reported by investigative journalist Mark Hyman, that he had just pardoned two-dozen FALN Puerto-Rican terrorists who murdered at least 24 people.

Or commuted the 58-year sentence of far-left terrorist Susan Rosenberg after only 16 years. It is so consistent with her hate-America mindset that today, Rosenberg is a member of the board of directors for the left-wing group that handles the donations made to the Marxist-front organization,Black Lives Matter (BLM).

Or pardoned Marc Rich, who renounced his U.S. citizenship, traded illegally with Cuba, did business with Iran while it held 52 U.S. hostages, and with Libya which was responsible for the Pan Am 103 bombing that killed 189 Americans.

Oops, that was Pres. Bill Clinton. Just before good ole boy Bill issued the pardons, Rich gave $450,000 to the Clinton Library and his wife Denise donated over a million dollars to the Democrat Party and the Clinton Foundation. Imagine that.

But there is more. According to Spectator journalist Hyman, “the 56 clemency petitions Clinton approved during his first term were the fewest of any president since Thomas Jefferson, the nation’s third commander-in-chief, who issued a mere 45 clemencies. Consider Jefferson’s clemencies were given when the U.S. had a population of only 5 million compared to the 285 million during Clinton’s first term.”

But everything changed when Hillary decided to run for U.S. Senator from New York. After her decision, Hyman says, “Bill doled out 380 pardons and commutations. Clemency was dished-out in return for money, gifts, and influence…Hillary stockpiled financial and political IOUs and cashed-in when she ran for political office, including the presidency.” Imagine that.

Again, not one word of outrage from the craven media.

A FATAL ATTRACTION TO MISCREANTS

Many of Barack Obama’s pardons and commutations were for drug dealers and violent offenders. He pardoned Chelsea (formerly Bradley) Manning, the traitor who leaked hundreds of thousands of sensitive documents to WikiLeaks and was convicted and sentenced to 35 years in prison. He pardoned the convicted terrorist Oscar Lopez Rivera, the leader of the FALN, responsible for 130 attacks in the U.S., who was serving a 70-year sentence when Obama set him free, the list is long. That is the very very short list.

Remember the media’s indignation? Me neither.

But Stone’s mortal sin was that he lied to––guess who?––the proven pathological liars in the Obama regime’s FBI, CIA, DOJ, et al, who were trying to frame candidate and then President Trump. Nothing less than the guillotine for him!

MEDIA MALFEASANCE

Well, whaddaya know? The entire uproar is already off the radar as the corrupt media are now back to:

• Covering for the escalating violent crimes of the anarchic groups BLM and Antifa;
• Pretending that the Centers for Disease Control are not dispensing erroneous information about Covid-19,
• Failing to report on the jaw-dropping incompetence of the Democrat mayors in our country’s biggest cities––Bill DiBlasio in NY, Eric Garcetti in L.A., Lori Lightfoot in Chicago, Bernard “Jack” Young in Baltimore, Ted Wheeler in Portland, OR, on and on and on––who are clearly incapable of stemming the catastrophic upsurge in crime, including murder,
• Trying to ignore recent resignee from the NY Times, liberal Bari Weiss, who has outed the newspaper as the racist, sexist, anti-Semitic rag it has been since its inception, on and on.

ARE THE TABLES TURNING?

The vast American public out there already knows of the Democrats’ double standards.

They see the breakdown of law and order in Democrat-run cities and its encroachment into the suburbs and don’t want any of that wanton violence in their state, city, or the block they live on.

Even Regressives are horrified by the No-Bail laws enacted by Democrat legislators when they see that the psychopathic criminals who are setting cars on fire and committing violent assaults walk free, as did the thugs who attacked and smashed the faces of high-ranking police officials in NY City the other day.

And they are watching Joe Biden’s rapid and pitiful devolution.

On the positive side, President Trump is opening up America and, happily, the Democrats themselves are now waking up! According to an article in The New York Times, “Two-thirds of battleground state voters who chose Trump in 2016 but selected Democrats in the midterms say they will return to the president”[in 2020].

Montana has about 1,400 Jews, Mississippi about 1,500, South Dakota 250. If I lived in any one of those beautiful states, I would not be writing this article. But I live in New York––home to about one-million, 800-thousand Jews––so the politics of being Jewish affects me and my family in a very existential––life and death––way.

It’s quite simple for me, as it should be for all Jews, given the fact that in a world of about eight-billion people, we Jews are a miniscule 15 million, only about six-million in the United States, eight-million in Israel, and another one-million around the world. That is equivalent to the proverbial drop in the ocean.

A PRESSING IMPERATIVE

If we Jews and our supporters don’t aggressively address the pandemic of anti-Semitism that is galloping around the globe and exploding here in America, rampant on college campuses, aided and abetted by a craven media that gives credibility to career hate-mongers like Louis Farrakhan and his ilk, and even contaminating the hallowed halls of the U.S. Congress––with more floridly hate-Jews/hate-Israel Democrats than ever before in history––then we know from our tragic history that annihilation could be right around the corner.

Sadly the Democrat Party of old––of JFK, Sen. Henry “Scoop” Jackson, Senator and VP Walter Mondale, et al––has vanished, replaced by Democrats like “the squad” who spew their poisonous hatred of Jews and Israel from the House of Representatives itself. Then there are those who remain thunderously silent––including elected Democrat Jews like Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer, Jerrold Nadler, Eliot Engel, Adam Schiff, Richard Blumenthal, as well Democrat Representatives from Long Island––with a huge Jewish population––Tom Suozzi and Kathleen Rice.

Don’t be fooled by the boilerplate, politically correct press releases written by their aides. Once these statements are made public, these cowards go back to cowering before the radical leftists who now call the shots in the Democrat Party, most prominently the racists who continue to vent their anti-Semitic bile to this day.

WHERE DID ALL THE ADVOCATES GO?

Shockingly, most of the Jewish organizations that once supported and defended Jews in America abandoned those roles, having caved to their biggest donors’ conversion to a new religion called “Social Justice.” These are the quislings who “reach out” to––in essence, endorse––groups like Black Lives Matter, Antifa and others that wantonly attack synagogues, Jewish businesses and ordinary Jewish citizens walking in their neighborhoods, and brazenly promote the Boycott-Divest-Sanction (BDS) movement to destroy Israel through economic strangulation.

For instance, The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), founded in 1913, aggressively and successfully fulfilled its mission to “stop the defamation of the Jewish people” until 102 years after its founding when, in 2015, Jonathan Greenblatt became the ADL’s national director and CEO. Greenblatt worked for three far-left regimes antagonistic to Israel––the Clinton Administration, the Obama fiasco, and the George Soros-funded Aspen Institute. Now, Mr. Greenblatt sounds deranged when he states that “only a small number” of the Black Lives Matter anarchy group don’t like Jews, when he knows full well––and Americans can see with their own eyes––that it is one of the most rabidly Jew- and Israel-loathing groups in the world!

According to columnist and author Rabbi Aryeh Spero, the ADL under Greenblatt “has betrayed its original mission of fighting anti-Semites by forging a new partnership with one of America’s most notorious anti-Semites, Al Sharpton.”

But the ADL is only one example out of nearly a dozen that I place in the category of turncoats against the Jewish people. [More on this in a future article].

AMERICA TO THE RESCUE

I have always felt safe in America, protected by the powerful principles of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, by the always-reliable police-and-fire departments in every community where I’ve lived, and by local, state and national leaders of both political parties who fought to preserve our extraordinary way of life through our country’s bedrock foundations of God, family, freedom and safety.

But with the advent of the well-organized, heavily financed emergence of the Jew-hating, Christian-hating, America-hating “Cancel Culture,” what can people do? Yes, they can call or write a letter or e-mail to their elected representative, for which they’ll get back a form letter written by an intern.

But a sure-fire cure for this downward plunge into the sewers of our body politic is to vote out every Democrat running for office. Not one of these America-loathing, anarchist-supporting people is worthy of representing either their constituents or America itself.

Just ask them. They will tell you that they “support” the terrorism––which they call “protests”––we’ve been witnessing for the last several weeks, that they want to raise your taxes, cut funding to the police and military that protect you and your children, institute the socialized medicine and education that have failed in every country they’ve ever been instituted, and enact the Big Government programs that “protect” you from cradle to grave.

November 3, 2020, could change your life forever. If you believe in self-preservation, be smart!

Here’s an old, irrefutable chestnut: If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging!

But Regressives refuse to learn that lesson and are yet again falling into the chasm of a trap President Trump has set for them.

Listen to the uproar the mostly-leftist media bleat every minute of every day: Why aren’t the president and his Republican colleagues saying anything, doing anything about all the destruction and madness that the [Democrat-approved] anarchists are wreaking throughout the country––the arson, smashed windows, destroyed businesses, separatist zones in Seattle and NY City, defund-the-police initiatives, out-of-control thuggery, on and on?

Yet the silence persists. Does even one person on the planet think this is a coincidence? A fluke? A historical aberration?

THE MEME THING

Just as Democrats send out daily talking points––remember the Dick Cheney “gravitas” meme that every media person echoed ad nauseam and then never said the word again after Bush 2 was elected?

Same thing today after Regressives learned that the word “defunding” polled badly so they uniformly switched to “reimagining” police reform.

I’m imagining that the president or his surrogates sent the Republicans and Conservatives a memo to refrain from addressing the vast destruction we’ve been witnessing for weeks. Because even in this Age of Communication––where instant text messages and emojis and YouTube videos and Instagram pictures invade the airways literally billions of times a day––doing nothing and saying nothing can still be more powerful!

A BIRD’S-EYE VIEW

By letting the 24-7 TV pictures speak for themselves, President Trump is providing all 330-million people in America––and the other eight-billion people around the world––an up-front bird’s-eye-view of what leftism/liberalism/regressivism is all about.

All those people are watching the president faithfully adhere to the U.S. Constitution’s mandate to allow the states to conduct their own affairs. He is giving those states the rope he knows will hang them, as is already obvious in the imploding cities of Seattle, Manhattan, Baltimore, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland, and all the other Democrat-run cities and states where chaos reigns.

He’s allowing all the world to see the startling incompetence and hypocrisy of the Democrat Mayor of Seattle, Jenny Durkan, who embraced Antifa and Black Lives Matter when they commandeered and blockaded a six-block area of the city and entitled it CHOP (Capitol Hill Organized Protest). Then she told the police force to stand down and, in essence, to ignore the escalating pillaging, rapes and murders. But when the protestors approached her own home, what did she do? She called the police!

The president is providing a front-row seat for the world to witness the aberrational behavior of the man who NY Post columnist Michael Goodwin calls Mayor Putz. That would be Democrat NY City Mayor Bill DiBlasio who just slashed $1 billion dollars from the police budget and put his America-loathing Democrat wife Chirlane in charge of the destruction of historic statues––she who cannot account for another billion she was given for mental-health programs.

In the same way, the president is allowing America and the world to see the ongoing––for years––black-on-black carnage that takes place every week in Chicago, and to wonder why clueless Democrat Mayor Lori Lightfoot is so busy with her platform platitudes of Equity *Diversity & Inclusion* that she personally makes it appear that Black Lives Don’t Matter at all in Chicago.

Not to omit the first-hand look the entire world is getting at the way in which California Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom––who is fighting a recall vote––has let the major cities in his state, Los Angeles and San Francisco (Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s turf), to become meccas of homelessness, with thousands of crude tents and cardboard shanties lining street after street after street, while tens of thousands of mentally ill and addicted people lie in the gutters, used needles and disease-carrying filth are everywhere,and there are piles of animal and human feces every few feet.

STILL THE SMARTEST GUY IN THE ROOM

All of the above––and hundreds of other equally shameful and sordid examples––is what Democrat leadership actually looks like. Not to be outdone, to be sure, by the aspiring “leader” of the free world, who remains sequestered in his basement, the true victim of a heartless and ambitious wife and a ruthless former boss who is directing his lackeys to continue to prop up the place-holder while he makes sure that is second try at rigging a presidential election will not fail as it did in 2016.

Meanwhile, President Trump can take full credit for issuing the Executive Order on Protecting American Monuments, Memorials, and Statues––with a mandatory penalty of 10 years in prison––as well as combating recent criminal violence.

Now, on this glorious July 4^th weekend, full credit also goes to President Trump for opening up America and seeing:

• The U.S. economy add an incredible 4.8 million jobs in June–– beating estimates by 1.7 million jobs––the largest monthly increase ever recorded!
• The addition of an amazing 7.5 million jobs over the past two months.
• The unemployment rate also fall to 11.1%!
• That the nation has now recovered roughly one-third of the 22 million jobs it lost to the pandemic.
• The DOW have the best quarter in 33 years (up 17.77%).
• NASDAQ up 30.63% in 90 days!

The bottom line is that except for the clinically insane politicians on the East and Left coasts, the vast majority of American citizens want to pursue their careers, raise their families, and have money in their pockets, peace in their hearts and safety in their homes.

President Trump knows this in every fiber of his being. But not one single Democrat has a clue.

If the upcoming presidential election on November 3, 2020, were not so serious, it would be downright hilarious just watching the Democrats twist themselves into pretzels in their efforts to project onto President Trump their own lengthy and shameful record of racism.

As Bill Federer of AmericanMinute.com has exhaustively documented:

• In 1857, the Supreme Court, with seven of the nine justices being Democrats, decided that Dred Scott, a black slave, was not a citizen, but property.
• After the Civil War, when Republicans enacted the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery in America, southern Democrats reacted by creating the vicious anti-black Jim Crow laws.
• In 1866, Republican Rep. Thaddeus Stevens introduced legislation to give former slaves “40 acres and a mule,” but Democrats opposed it.

This lopsided picture continued unabated through the 19^th century and into the 20^th century. Only space limitations prevent me from providing a doctoral thesis worth of sordid documentation.

• In 1953, Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower (DDE) proposed “to use whatever authority exists in the office of the President to end segregation”…but Southern Democrat governors objected!
• In 1964, Democrat senators held the longest filibuster in U.S. history––75 days––to try to prevent the Civil Rights Act from passing. Finally, Democrat President Lyndon B. Johnson (LBJ) persuaded the leaders of his party to support a compromised bill, saying: “I’ll have those ni – – ers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.”
• In 1994, as Stephen Frank documents, then-Senator Joe Biden sponsored a Bill that put tens of thousands of black men in prison—and it took 15 years till President Trump was able to get rid of that discriminatory law.

21^st CENTURY DEMOCRAT RACISM

In 2009, Sammy Benoit in AmericanThinker.com  wrote an article exposing former President Jimmy Carter’s lifelong animosity, contempt, indeed hatred toward Jews and Israel. Among numerous egregious examples he cited was this: “Former President Jimmy Carter once complained there were ‘too many Jews’ on the government’s Holocaust Memorial Council.”

We all know that Democrats lionized their fellow Democrat, WVA Senator Robert Byrd, who personally filibustered the Civil Rights Bill for 14 hours and 13 minutes on June 10, 1964.

In 2010, Byrd was still around and the Senate’s president pro tempore. And as all his colleagues knew, for many years he had also been a high-ranking member of the Ku Klux Klan––Exalted Cyclops and Kleagle. That’s right, and Byrd also recruited 150 of his friends to start a new KKK chapter, as well as using the N-word on live television in 2001.

Not to omit that then-Senator Biden praised Byrd lavishly in his eulogy on the former-KKK member’s death in 2010, as did current House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

It comes as no surprise to anyone who has followed Biden’s career that he also eulogized arch segregationist Strom Thurmond (D-SC), and had high praise for proud segregationists Sens. James Eastland (D-MS) and Herman Talmadge (D-GA), as well as for Governor George Wallace––“segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever”––who blocked black students from entering the University of Alabama.

CRINGE-PRODUCING DEMOCRAT RACISM

First Prize definitely goes to Hillary Clinton who never fails to break into a thick Southern accent when speaking before a black audience, as in this cringe-producing performance in a church in Alabama when quoting a hymn familiar to the audience––“I don’t feel no ways tired.”

Then there is the Democrat Governor of Virginia. Ralph Northam, all smeared in blackface and saying he’s not sure if it’s him but that he distinctly remembers wearing blackface on a different occasion. Can’t make it up.

And who can ever forget Joe Biden’s unforgettable words on hearing of the candidacy of Barack Obama for president: “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”

“Bright and clean.” Really.

And yet, former VP Bidenis the only candidate the Democrats could think of to run for the presidency! And now he says he prefers a “woman of color” to be his VP. Right here, I could say “I rest my case” about Democrats being racists.

How utterly patronizing! How pathetically bowing to political correctness! How blazingly typical of a Democrat to cite race instead of experience, credentials, track record, character, voting record, on and on.

Biden sounds like his old boss, Barack Obama, who wanted his regime to “look like America,” and in the name of political correctness and a fetish with a globalist/Islamist philosophy ended up––by design, I believe––with the worst economy, the weakest military, and the most failed medical and education systems in American history….which didn’t look like any America most of the country recognized.

At this point, the Democrat Machine hopes they can get Joe Biden across the finish line so the really extreme far-leftist powers-that-be can inflict their noxious anti-Americanism, anti-Semitism, and inherent racism––via Antifa and Black Lives Matter––on our entire country.

Clearly, what is systemic about racism in America can be found in the Democrats’ DNA.

They say that out of every bad thing comes a good thing. Ask any mother who has been through a 20-hour labor!

The same can be said of the criminal behavior of the Marxist-inspired radicals––Antifa and Black Lives Matters––which eclipsed the legitimate outrage that followed the horrific murder of George Floyd by a white policeman, Derek Chauvin, in Minneapolis, MN.

This crime called for reform of the Minneapolis Police Department, which had ignored 18 grievances against Chauvin. But that is not what happened.

Instead, the peaceful protests against this savage act were obliterated by the professionally orchestrated, bountifully financed rampage of the above-mentioned anarchists-cum-terrorists through American cities and suburbs, leaving a massive swath of destruction that included dozens of black-owned businesses and dozens of white-owned businesses that employed black citizens. So much for Black Lives Matter!

What a beautiful tribute to George Floyd––God spare all of us such a memoriam!

A SHAMEFUL EXPOSÉ

However, the good that came out of this disgraceful, destructive, criminal behavior was the willingness of many black conservative commentators and writers to tell the American public what Democrats and their leftist media lackeys have been concealing from the public for decades.

1. Since the 1960s, the welfare system rewarded single black mothers with lifetime financial support which resulted in every generation for the last 60 years with fatherless homes–in short, the destruction of the black family. When the mothers worked outside the home to make ends meet, their children were left to the streets to admire the rich pimps, drug pushers and other criminals who became their role models….a doomsday scenario for every child.
2. Public schools run by Democrat-controlled unions and benefits-infatuated teachers and administrators allowed generations of illiterate students to “graduate” without the knowledge or skills necessary to be productive members of society. Just mention the name Eva Moskowitz to any leftist and you will be assaulted with vile language and the deep hatred Democrats feel toward the woman who runs upward of 25 Charter Schools in New York City, schools attended by children from black ghettos who pass the Regents with flying colors, score high marks on the SATs, graduate from high school and go on to top-flight colleges (without the “benefit” of Affirmative Action). This is tragically unlike the children who attend public schools and go on to survive either through lives of crime or welfare dependency.
3. The result: a disproportionate number of blacks––mostly men––in prison, representing a complete waste of potentially vibrant and contributory lives.
4. And the women? Most Planned Parenthood facilities are located in minority neighborhoods… on purpose! In fact, 25 percent of abortions performed each year are on black women. The founder of these baby-destroying factories, Margaret Sanger, as John Nolte reports, was an impassioned eugenicist who spoke before Ku Klux Klan groups. On December 10, 1939, in a letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble of the Eugenics Society––in the context of discussing the Negro Project, which she developed in concert with white birth-control reformers––Sanger wrote: “We do not want word to get out that we want to exterminate the Negro population…” The Planned Parenthood Federation of America aborted 345,672 babies during the 2018 fiscal year, which equals approximately 86,500 dead black babies. So much for Black Lives Matter!
5. Democrats conceived of and implemented Sanctuary Cities which flout federal immigration law in protecting illegal aliens from deportation and prosecution. These laws go further in providing cradle-to-grave benefits like taxpayer-funded free food, free housing, free medical care, free schooling, and of course welfare payments. The result, of course, is that the states who subscribe to this communist philosophy are both crime-ridden and bankrupt. The cost is in the multi billions of dollars, which could and should have been spent on better schools, jobs and living conditions for black citizens, but never is and never was. So much for Black Lives Matter!

John Nolte asks what the following cities have in common:

Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Fayetteville, Atlanta, New York, Nashville, Seattle, Portland, Philadelphia,  Chicago, Milwaukee, Salt Lake, Washington DC, Detroit, Indianapolis, San Francisco, Kansas City, Houston, Charlotte, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Denver, Dallas, Phoenix, Tampa, Baltimore, Oakland, Louisville…

♦ They’re all run by Democrats, many for generations.
♦ They’ve all been looted and burned by left-wing Antifa terrorists and other Marxist groups over the past few weeks.
♦ These riots are wholly owned, supported, indeed applauded by the Democrat Party.

Here is but one example:

Make no mistake: all of the above actions were taken with one overriding goal in mind: to accumulate votes for Democrat candidates. The strategy was obviously to keep minority populations dumb and dependent, the better to convince them that hope for a better future lay right around the corner.

If you go to horrible schools, you’re not going to keep up on politics and you are going to listen to sermon-spouting “reverends”––like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and Jeremiah Wright, et al––who tell you what to think and who to vote for, while they are making millions and their gullible acolytes are barely getting by. So much for Black Lives Matter!

TO THE RESCUE

But now that President Trump enacted the unprecedented prison-reform First Step Act, and created an economy in which black people have enjoyed the highest employment rate in American history––money in their pockets, unlimited opportunity, increased awareness of the slave mentality of the Democrats––which political party will this minority population vote for?

As I said, good comes out of bad. A black vote of 20 percent, and quite possibly 30 percent for President Trump, will teach the Democrats that even their most cherished “value”––abortion––is not enough to keep the black population loyal to their historically empty promises and innate racism.

On Christmas Eve in 2009, 60 Senate Democrats cast their final votes to approve Obamacare, which was finally voted on again by the House and enacted into law on March 23, 2010. It was only two months into Barack Obama’s first term when they magically produced the exhaustively detailed, 2,300-page bill. But it turns out it wasn’t magic.

The leftists in Congress (Democrats all) had been working on their long-yearned-for Socialized Medicine for decades, just as they’ve worked––even harder––for the past four years to topple candidate and then President Donald J. Trump, who has so far succeeded in overturning, reforming, even eviscerating just about everything liberals/leftists/regressives have fought for, given money to, taught their children, and voted for over the past 60 years.

What we’ve learned from their treachery is that Democrats always have backup plans, contingency strategies waiting in the wings, almost as if they are counting on failure.

SO MANY PLANS, SO LITTLE TIME

Plan A was to utilize all the seditious and traitorous bad actors Barack Obama had put into the highest positions of Justice, State, Intelligence, et al––the FBI, the CIA, the DNI, the DOJ, on and on—in order to fabricate malicious stories about the president, wiretap his phones, enact sting operations on his advisers, and enlist the fake-news media to prove that candidate and then President Trump colluded with the Russians to win the 2016 election.

Result: Failure.

Plan B was to flood the airwaves––and the country––with the framing of the president’s first choice as National Security Advisor, Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, by 37 (and counting) crooked Obama Officials. In May 2020, the Justice Department dropped all charges against Flynn, but a leftist federal court judge has placed the matter on hold leading to the speculation that he is hoping that a Biden Justice Dept. will revive it. Nevertheless….

Result: Failure

Plan C was to enlist lawyer Michael Avenetti to claim that his client, call girl Stormy Daniels, had an affair with the president, a claim she has since denied –– “it never happened.” Once again the anti-Trump forces relied on the craven fake-news media to lend the accusation credibility.

Result: Failure.

Plan D was to accuse the president of asking the Ukrainian president to look into the corruption of Presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son Hunter when Biden was VP of the U.S., a travesty that Patricia McCarthy spells out extensively, concluding, “If anyone needed to be impeached, it was virtually all of the top dogs of the Obama administration: Holder, Lynch, Rice, Power, Comey, McCabe, et al. and of course Biden as well.”

Result: Failure

Plan E was to impeach the president, supposedly for the same call to the Ukrainian president, an effort historian Victor Davis Hanson calls a coup that relied on at least 10 false premises, including phony whistleblowers who relied on “secondhand water-cooler gossip;” no finding by a special counsel of any felony, collusion or obstruction; the absence of bipartisan support; no high crimes or misdemeanors; the chronic lying of “hyper-partisan” prosecutor Cong. Adam Schiff, et al. This perversion of justice began on Jan. 16, 2020 and concluded on Feb. 5, 2020 with the president’s total acquittal.

Result: Failure

All these crashing failures were designed to be smashing successes that resulted in the removal of President Trump from office. But as I’ve both said and written on many occasions, Democrats are simply not that smart.

WHAT A COINCIDENCE!

Just as the impeachment failure was ending in February, whaddaya know? March indeed came in like a lion with the Chinese virus aka Covid-19. And there, front and center, ostensibly helping the president through this crisis, were old-time leftists Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx, significantly concealing their affiliations with the vaccine fetishist Bill Gates and The Clinton Foundation. Check it out here and here.

In addition to citing doomsday mortality numbers that never materialized, their prescription for “flattening the curve” was a virtual shutdown of America:

• Mandatory sheltering in place,
• Closing non-essential businesses––except for the gay swingers’ clubs that Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer deemed highly essential,
• Non-negotiable requirement to wear masks and gloves,
• Closing all pre-schools to universities,
• Shutting down all entertainment, sports, restaurants, parks, et al,
• Forbidding the attendance at any house of worship
• Cessation of all elective surgeries,
• Closing of all airports, on and on.

Quick question: Why was there not one micro-question from any media outlet about Bill Gates’ deep involvement with the Netflix docuseries PANDEMIC, which debuted January 22, 2020, right before the Chinese virus hit?

Result: Failure

Plan F is what I call the mini-Martial Law we’ve experienced as a result of the corona virus, sort of a dress rehearsal for what the deranged and depressed Democrats still had left in their Depose-Trump, Destroy-America arsenal. Suffice it to say that the attempt by the Doctors of Doom to shut down America and destroy its economy earned the following evaluation:

Result: Failure

RUNNING OUT OF TIME

As the country began to open up and the Stock Market started to zoom upward, and as it became crystal clear to even the most rabid partisan that Joe Biden’s cognitive impairment was worsening, Democrat desperation––as evidenced by the irrational behavior and statements of their bought-and-paid-for media whores––escalated precipitously. No one who follows this circus should be surprised at what followed.

Plan G was the well-orchestrated plan––in the works for decades––either to create a false-flag incident that would mobilize radical left wing forces to wreak their typically destructive havoc, or a genuine incident that would inspire outrage and anger from the entire public and political spectrum.

That incident took place on May 25, 2020, when 46-year-old George Floyd from Minneapolis, MN, a black man accused of passing a counterfeit $20 bill, was handcuffed and thrown face down to the ground while white police officer Derek Chauvin––who had 18 complaints against him––pressed his knee to Floyd’s neck, cutting off circulation to his carotid artery while Floyd gasped “I can’t breathe” and pleaded for his life. All this while two other officers helped to restrain Floyd and a fourth stopped onlookers from intervening.

The claim, of course, was that this was a direct result of the systemic racism of police departments throughout the U.S., an accusation writer Heather MacDonald thoroughly disproves. “For the record,” she states, “based on 2019 statistics, the chance of an unarmed black being killed by police is about 1 in every 4 million. There were 10 such incidents in 2019, and as many as half of these involved attacks on police or resisting arrest.”

Quick question: Where is the TIME magazine Person of the Year cover for the individual who took the iPhone video of this incident? Where is the nomination for this person to receive the Nobel Prize? Where are the non-stop lionizing interviews on TV?

What followed is the anarchy and chaos of the last several days and nights with the brazenly anti-American,anti-Semitic and racist Antifa and Black Lives Matter rampaging through American cities and suburbs, destroying businesses, stealing multi millions of dollars of goods, burning cars, defacing monuments, shooting people, throwing the Molotov cocktails and bricks left for them in strategic spots by their fellow thugs, and generally giving the world an up-close, three-dimensional picture of what clinicians call sociopaths and psychopaths.

To me, the entire spectacle has the distinctly noxious whiff of Barack Obama’s Organizing for Action, as spelled out by writer Scott S. Powell, who explains that, “The modus operandi of OFA comes right out of Obama’s support and sympathy for Marxism and his background as a left-wing community organizer. It’s a combination of agitation and propaganda––much like old-style Soviet agitprop, and Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. For Alinsky, the rules start with an ends-justifies-the- means quest for power, which can entail lawbreaking, deception, and concealing the true revolutionary agenda…”

Powell quotes Paul Sperry who presciently wrote in the New York Post: “Obama has an army of agitators––numbering more than 30,000––who will fight his Republican successor at every turn of his historic presidency…and command them from a bunker less than two miles from the White House.”

“His OFA Washington HQ is now the nerve center that coordinates 250 offices nationwide,” Sperry continued, “which together with its Chicago-based sister organization, the Community Organizing Institute (COI), are planning to facilitate the “training [of] more than 2 million youths in Alinsky street tactics” and carry out plans “to stage 400 rallies across 42 states to attack Trump and Republicans over ObamaCare’s repeal.”

From the looks of things today, it’d clear that they put Obamacare aside for the bigger fish of national chaos and destruction.

It took a few days to coordinate pushback from the White House, but now it is apparent that the rampant thuggery is almost under control––except in the epicenter of horrific leadership, New York City and New York State. In most other places, people are exulting as more and more stores and restaurants open for business, as neighbors pitch in to repair the anarchists’ damage, and as the Stock Market continues a steady climb. Of this plan, too, it can be said:

Result: Failure

EYES & EARS

It was a good thing that the anxiety this uproar called kept people riveted to their TVs for over a week. It meant that millions upon millions of people throughout the U.S. were actual eye-witnesses to the acting-out behavior, destructive impulses, and arrogant attitudes they teach their children never to evince or emulate.

And they all realized that every single politician supporting this thuggery––EVERY.SINGLE.ONE––was a Democrat! It was a guide to tell them who NEVER to vote for in November.

With a Republican White House, Senate and House, President Trump will bring Americans the prosperity, jobs, infrastructure, foreign-policy pacts, and 21^st century marvels of innovation they deserve! Unlike the pitiful record of chronic failure the Democrats have produced, we will once again be able to say:

Result: Success!

While the Corleone family of Godfather fame was the embodiment of mob life and the acquisition of money, power and prestige through criminal activity, the Trump family––in stark contrast––embodies the nose-to-the-grindstone, upward-mobility glory of the American Dream.

Nevertheless, when I think of the fanatical, maniacal and relentless persecution, accusations, vilification, and sabotage that President Trump has experienced for the past four years at the hands of crazed Democrats––both in and out of office––the infamously stunning Baptism Scene the end of Godfather One comes immediately to mind. Baptism Scene

In that scene, Michael Corleone––who attended Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, where he met his future wife Kay, and who then left college to join the U.S. Marines after the attack on Pearl Harbor––is featured in the baptism ceremony where he has been asked to be the godfather of Michael Rizzi, the infant son of his sister Connie and her husband Carlo Rizzi, in 1955.

The solemn ritual takes place in the splendiferous Old St. Patrick’s Cathedral––built in 1809––a Roman Catholic Church on Mulberry Street in New York City. It is held shortly after the funeral of Michael’s father, the powerful Don, Vito Corleone.

Before Don Vito’s death, however, he and Michael––the ordained heir to his father’s mafia fiefdom––concocta complex plan to vanquish all their enemies.

As Michael’s wife Kay holds the infant––who is bedecked in a lace-embroidered baptismal gown handed down through generations––the ceremony begins, with the priest intoning in both Latin and English––Let us pray, mercifully hear our prayers, we beseech Thee, O Lord; Oremus: Precesnostras, quaesumus, Domine, clementerexaudi––and then sprinkling the baby’s head with the Holy Water that symbolizes purification and his admission to the Christian Church.

As the organ music builds, Michael says “I do” to renouncing Satan, to renouncing his sins, and to becoming the infant’s godfather. In each renunciation––there are five of them––he reaffirms his commitment to be worthy of this honor.

And with each surge of music in which the priest sprinkles Holy Water on the infant’s brow and Michael affirms that he has renounced his sins, the audience sees Don Vito’s and Michael’s master plan being executed with balletic precision.

The Godfather: Baptism Scene

PAYBACK

It took years––of intrigue, treachery, heartache––for Michael Corleone to exact revenge on the Corleone family’s enemies, just as it has taken years for the truth of the betrayal of President Trump to be revealed.

But in D.C., the bad guys are usually not shot down in elevators or in a hooker’s bed. Rather, justice is worked through an Attorney General, a special prosecutor, and a handful of honest politicians.

In this case, as it turned out, “the best and the brightest” of the Obama regime and the “best and the brightest” of the leftist media were no match for the singular brilliance of President Trump. His political enemies should have known that for the man who dealt for half a century with the union sharks and cutthroat politicians in New York City, as well as mob bosses on which the fictional Godfather dons were based, the D.C. swamp denizens were small potatoes.

Fuggedabout the fact that these slithery creatures are not honest, moral, ethical, or trustworthy––they are simply not that smart.

It is now clear that President Trump has beaten the Obama regime and the leftist media decisively. Over the next several months, we will see these reptilian putative criminals brought to justice.

FICTIONAL CROOKS                               ALLEGED CROOKS

Mob boss Victor Stracci                                James Comey, former director of Obama’s FBI.

Mob boss Emilio Barzini                               John Brennan, formerdirector of Obama’s CIA.

Mobster Moe Greene                                     James Clapper, former DNI for Obama.

Mob boss Philip Tattaglia                             Leftist shill, Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA).

Traitor Salvatore Tessio                                Hillary Clinton, former Sec. of State for Obama.

Traitor Carlo Rizzi                                          Barack Obama!

And that is not to omit the 35 bottom-dwellers involved in the Russian-collusion hoax, the roles of whom Willis L. Krumholz spells out in sordid detail, including Lisa Page, Peter Strzok, Joseph Pientka, Bruce Ohr, Nellie Ohr, Christopher Steele, Loretta Lynch, Victoria Nuland, Glenn Simpson, on an on––all in obsequious service to the Obama regime.

Not to forget Samantha Power, Obama’s Ambassador to the rancid United Nations, who former South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy said was “the largest unmasker of U.S. persons in our country’s history”––and her ignominious and possibly criminal role in asking that the identity of Gen. Michael Flynn be revealed in classified intelligence reports seven times between Election Day 2016 and the inauguration of President Trump on Jan. 20, 2017, although she testified later of having “no recollection” of the requests, as reported by Miranda Devine in the NY Post.

Let us remember that the fish always stinks from the head. It now appears that this dishonorable cabal was led by Barack Obama and those who financed his own peculiar––indeed fishy––rise to power. And those who participated in the crashingly failed attempts to destroy the Trump presidency––the Russian-collusion hoax, the Stormy Daniels hoax, the Ukraine hoax, the impeachment hoax, the leaking, the lying, the spying, and the media whores who to this day cover for Obama’s many failures and scandals––including this one, Obamagate––are now on the threshold of paying the piper, so to speak.

It may be true that the wheels of justice move slowly. But right now they are moving in the right direction, in the direction of identifying and hopefully indicting and imprisoning the already-disgraced people who participated for the past four years in undermining and trying to destroy a duly elected President of the United States.

Gitmo, anyone!

After the 2016 presidential election of President Donald J. Trump, I stopped counting the numbers of Republicans and Conservatives who told me how unpleasantly life had changed for them.

Through eight years of President George W. Bush––even through the Reagan years, they said––they could still speak to their friends and relatives and agree to disagree about political issues.

But the reaction to the Trump presidency, they told me, was so extreme, the hysteria so sustained, the venom so poisonous, the rationality so nonexistent, that they can’t even go to a happy affair like a birthday party or wedding or dinner at a restaurant without World War III breaking out.

No surprise. While glamorous billionaire businessman and TV star Donald Trump had been lionized for decades before he became president by the very people who are vilifying him today, while office-seeking Democrats held out both hands for his generous contributions to their campaigns, and while leftists like Oprah and the fake-news media whores considered it either a privilege or a scoop to interview him, all that changed when he descended the Trump Tower escalator with his dazzling wife Melania in June of 2015 to announce his candidacy.

WHY THE CHANGE?

Indeed, why did the “tolerant” Progressives display––and exhibit to this very day––such florid and feverish intolerance?

Why did the thug groups of the Left––like Antifa, Black Lives Matter and Occupy Wall St.––step up their violence and downright anarchy in their anti-Trump protests?

Because of the existential threat candidate and now President Trump posed to their hundred-year ambition to destroy the America they loathe––the America that embraces free markets and capitalism, the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights,free speech, the right to bear arms, et al.

To the horror of all those socialist/communist-admiring Progressives, the empire-builder Donald Trump turned out to be a rock-ribbed believer in everything they detest:

• American Exceptionalism.
• The urgent importance of a strong military.
• The simple sanity of closed borders.
• Deep respect for the working-class people who built and run not only his buildings but America: electricians, plumbers, masons, elevator operators, on and on and on.
• The destructive nature of high taxes.
• The strangulating effect of strangulating regulations.
• The clinical insanity of selling out to China, Iran and other countries.
• The consummate fakery of the media and most polling companies.

Yes, the Progressives had just about succeeded in actualizing their destroy-America goal––eight years of Barack Obama and his socialized medicine (Obamacare), socialized education (Common Core), eviscerating our military, and funding terrorist states like Iran. All they needed was eight more years of Hillary.

SMELLING THE COFFEE

I happen to live about 18 minutes from New York City, in one of the meccas of left wing madness on Long Island. In my suburban community, a Marxist Forum actually exists, voters overwhelmingly cast their ballots for Democrats, including a state legislature that not long ago stood on their feet and applauded a law to allow mothers in labor to end the lives of their fully developed, nine-months-in-utero babies literally one minute before birth. You read that right––applauded!

It’s a community––much like those in far-left California, Oregon, Michigan, et al––that spoon-feeds socialist propaganda to preschoolers straight through high school and college; mandates that students watch Al Gore’s film on the hoax of global-warming, “An Inconvenient Truth”; teaches the Gospel of Victimization for everyone––except those big bad white men and capitalists––and features six-foot posters of the Cuban communist mass murderer Che Guevara in their classrooms. Really.

As it happens, I was raised in a strict and religious home that voted Democrat. After high school, I married, had three children and moved to New York. Having been a truant in high school and then happily skipped college, my mind was relatively uncontaminated by the leftist sewage that afflicts most people on the East and West coasts.

My education came from real life. For instance, one day I read in our local newspaper that a vote was being held to welcome 75 students from a lower-income neighborhood in Queens to be bussed into our town in order to attend our “superior” schools.

My husband Steve and I voted for this proposal because we had grown up in New Haven, CT, where race relations were harmonious. Our high school’s president was black. I was the co-captain of the cheer leading squad with a beautiful black girl; Steve was a New-England Championship winner on a basketball team with four black guys (they affectionately called him the “light bulb”).

These experiences were so ingrained in our hearts and minds that when we moved into our first home, we hosted the New York Times-sponsored Fresh Air children for three consecutive summers.

But back to the referendum. To the absolute shock of the left wing powers-that-be, it was resoundingly defeated. Although I was completely apolitical at the time, a neighbor urged me to attend a gathering to protest the vote.

That was when I went to my very first school board meeting. I was about 25 at the time, and my kids were about 7, 5, and 2. At the meeting, the smooth-talking school board president––the wealthy owner of several baby furniture stores––said the following: “The community has spoken. But the community is wrong. We are going ahead to extend the invitation to those students in Jamaica, Queens, in spite of the vote.”

RED FLAG!!!

Sitting there, I remember saying to myself: “I don’t think that’s legal!” Silly me, I thought that when you voted for a person or policy, that was the decision of “We the People,” and if you didn’t like the vote, you had to fight harder the next time to get your opinion voted into law.

For me, it was a vivid picture of dictatorial, fascistic, arrogant leftism in living color. And although I didn’t know the language of politics, I knew this species was not for me.

I knew it again when my sanctimonious neighbors told me I should join them in supporting the boycott of lettuce spearheaded by Cesar Chavez in 1970 because he wanted lettuce pickers to have the right to form their own union. Then I found out they sent their children to the supermarket to buy the lettuce!

A few years later, when my youngest child went to kindergarten, I decided to enter nursing school. The same thing that attracted me to conservatism attracted me to nursing: Facts!

I always tell people that if they were my patients, and I was calibrating IVs or drawing medications into a syringe to go into their veins, I would never do these things based on my feelings or instincts or emotions. Why? Because the correct dose could cure you, and the incorrect dose could kill you.

And yet, feelings and instincts and emotions are the three arch criteria on which Progressives base all of their misguided policies––always to the detriment of America!

By the way…the principal of the Jamaica high school in Queens wrote to Mr. Smooth-Talking school board president, saying that he would never let his students attend schools in a community that didn’t want them.

LIKE SHOOTING FISH….

Today, left-right debates have devolved into the children known as leftists resorting to acting-out temper tantrums and vicious name-calling, and the grown-ups known as conservatives usually slack-jawed at what they are seeing and hearing.

My own exchanges, however, are usually hilarious––and certainly revealing of the aberrational “thinking” of leftists in general. As an aside, they are always scowling during these exchanges, and I am always smiling…yet another thing that drives them mad.

Progressive: Trump is only lowering taxes for his rich friends.

Me: I understand….you like high taxes.

Prog: Well, I’m not saying that….

Progressive: Trump is only quashing regulations to get pro-union votes.

Me: I understand…you like waiting three years to get a new roof on your home.

Prog: Well, I’m not saying that…

Progressive: Trump is spending all our money on the military.

Me: I understand…you like a weak military.

Prog: Well, I’m not saying that…

Progressive: Trump is a racist for closing our borders.

Me: I understand…you would never get a lock or alarm system on your home.

Prog: Well, I’m not saying that…

You get the picture. Whether it is Democrat governors or senators or representatives or candidates for office, the rationality factor, the sane factor, the intelligent factor, the pro-American factor is simply missing.

Happily, an overwhelming majority of Americans have both eyes and ears. They are watching. They are listening. They are keenly aware that Democrats are not on America’s side.

Among the TV shows I gravitate to with my husband Steve, a former athlete, include live baseball, basketball and football games, historical documentaries, and both true crime shows and crime dramas like Law & Order, Forensic Files, Chicago PD, and Blue Bloods––all studies in the greatest mystery of all time, human behavior.

When Blue Bloods debuted in September 2010, we thought it was excellent, featuring in-depth and provocative episodes, and at last embodying the conservative values we embraced, including a distinct lack of the three-legged stool on which Progressives base their so-called values: moral relativism, political correctness, and multiculturalism.

The show is about the Reagan dynasty in NY City, where the following characters are presented every week with daunting challenges, moral dilemmas, high-action chases and arrests, and touching family dramas:

• Frank Reagan, a widower and the New York Police Department (NYPD) Commissioner, played by Tom Selleck.
• His father Henry Reagan, also a widower and a former NYPD Commissioner, played by Len Cariou.
• Frank’s son Danny, played by Donnie Wahlberg, a tough, street-smart detective, and his partner Maria Baez (played by Marisa Ramirez). Danny was happily married to R.N. Linda (played by Amy Carlson) before her death, and they were the parents of two sons played by real-life brothers Andrew and Tony Terraciano.
• Frank’s daughter Erin, played by Bridget Moynihan, a letter-of-the-law Bureau Chief in the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office and divorced mother of daughter Nicky (played by Sami Gayle). Erin works closely with Anthony Abetemarco, a detective in the D.A.’s office (played by Steve Schirripa).
• Frank’s son Jamie, played by Will Estes, a Harvard Law School graduate who chose to become a street cop, was promoted to sergeant, and then married to his NYPD partner––a beautiful blonde from a decidedly dysfunctional background––“Eddie” Janko, played by Vanessa Ray.
• Frank’s Chief of Staff, Garrett Moore, who is also the NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Public Information, played by Gregory Jbara.
• I cannot omit the very gorgeous and fabulous actress Abigail Baker who plays Commissioner Reagan’s chief aide as Detective Abigail Hawk.

Suffusing the drama is the Commissioner’s late son Joe, an NYPD detective who was murdered by a corrupt gang of police officers and whose memory continues to haunt the Reagan family.

THE OLD FORMAT

Every week for the past many years, all these characters presented compelling and original drama with episodes addressing themes such as the unreliability of eyewitnesses, the difficulty of identifying sociopaths, the nefarious inner workings of the New York mafia, the dangers of nepotism within the ranks, the reluctance of sexual assault victims to come forward, the complexity of solving murder cases, on and on and on.

In every episode, it was clear that the protagonists––members of the NYPD from the top on down––knew the difference between right and wrong, good and bad, legal and illegal.

• Right was the teenage kid from the projects who resisted following his thug friends into a life of crime; wrong were the thugs who chose a life of crime, including robbery, rape and murder.
• Good were the people who yearned for a safe neighborhood coming forward to identify the perps, in spite of great risk to themselves and their families; bad were the drug dealers and corrupt politicians who covered for the bad guys.
• Legal were the follow-the-rules cops who crossed every “t” and dotted every “I”; illegal were the on-the-take judges who ruled against them.

Riveting. Illuminating. Thought-provoking. Influential. Worthy of our time.

THE OLD VALUES

Among the most refreshing qualities of the show was––not is––the great respect the children and grandchildren exhibited toward their father, the Commissioner, and their grandfather, the former Commissioner.

Every week, viewers were treated to the Reagan clan gathering around a huge dining-room table for a sumptuous dinner consisting of platters of roast turkey and roast beef, mountains of salad and vegetables, and heaping portions of baked and mashed potatoes, where one or another member of the family would say Grace before the meal, thank their Lord Jesus Christ for their bounty, perform the sign of the Cross, and in unison say Amen.

While serious discussions and good-humored kidding took place around the table, philosophical disagreements also abounded. Yes, quizzical looks and raised eyebrows and even scowls were evinced, but there was always a refreshing absence of the dismissive, rude, hostile and insulting behavior and the repulsively foul language we’ve become accustomed to in shows ranging from newscasts to award shows to daytime talk shows to “Housewives” dramas. And there was never any sign or sight of an iPhone! 

RATINGS DON’T LIE

According to Wikipedia, the pilot episode 10 years ago garnered 15,246 million viewers, and the ratings remained sky-high for about seven seasons. But from season eight on, the ratings began to plunge, with season nine seeing the lowest in the show’s history.

No mystery to me, as the Blue Bloods audience witnessed this once-terrific show go Oprah––turning into both a social service and finger-wagging forum designed to set Commissioner Frank Reagan and his unenlightened family straight, to teach them the Progressive values that the leftist writers they hired wanted them to learn: how to be a moral relativist, a multiculturalist, a politically correct jerk.

CLUELESS WRITERS

It is abundantly clear that the current writers had never watched the show, had no idea about the rock-ribbed simpatico dynamics of the Reagan family, had contempt for the police, and had a deep loathing of the Christian religion and prayer and even the mention of Jesus.

Why else would they have the always respectful sons of Frank Reagan and their grandfather Henry speak to them with such antagonistic, disrespectful language? Why would they feature rookie and even senior policemen speak to the Commissioner in such brazenly inappropriate terms? Why would they completely eliminate the prayer before eating dinner and any reference to Jesus?

Why? I know nothing about corporate media or who calls the shots and ultimately determines content. But this is an all-important election year and we already see the Murdoch boys pushing their properties––The Wall St. Journal and Fox News, among others––in a distinctly leftward direction, so it’s not a far stretch to theorize that anti-Trump CBS-TV is also pushing their popular shows along the same route.

After all, why would they drag a veteran leftist, the seemingly dotty 90-year-old Ed Asner, out of his comfortable California home to star in a preposterous episode where the writers wasted our time watching Asner and his old friend Commissioner Reagan show off their knowledge of ancient movies?

Why? Clearly the writers want to make the Commissioner look like a regular guy, to reduce his gravitas, to make him less important.

Why would they feature the toughest guy in town, Commissioner Reagan, visiting the new Mayor of NYC––who told him the City needed a tougher P.R. person than Reagan’s longtime Chief of Staff Garrett Moore––and then portray the Commissioner as an emotional,conflicted, hand-wringing wuss over a simple executive decision?

Why? Again, an attempt by the writers to make the Commissioner look incapable of taking charge and getting something done––sort of like Congressmen Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) and Adam Schiff (D-CA).

Of course, the goal of the real wusses who are writing this junk is to convince the viewing public that they’ve been wrong all along about Blue Bloods, that what we should really believe is that the police are the problem, prayer is the problem, Jesus is the problem, and we should vote for all the left wing candidates who believe this tripe.

As for me and Steve, we’ve dropped this leftist travesty forever, and are now enjoying both reruns and new episodes of the quite fabulous and compelling Chicago PD!

Test time boys and girls. Hint…there is only one right answer––if you don’t get it right, you flunk! And so does America!

♦ Which person, foreign or American, predicted three years ago, in 2017, that President Trump would be challenged by a “surprise global-disease outbreak”?

1. Enemy of Trump Cong. Adam Schiff (D-CA)
2. Enemy of Trump House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
3. Crazed enemy of Trump Hillary Clinton

Answer: None of the above. It was Dr. Anthony Fauci!

♦ Which person, foreign or American, wrote de facto love letters (actually e-mails) to Hillary Clinton through her lawyer Cheryl Mills, saying that he loved ole Hillary “more than ever”?

• Which person, foreign or American, said that the collapse of the American capitalist system as a result of the corona virus plague would be “inconvenient”?
• American adversary Xi Jing Ping, President of China
• American adversary Ali Khamenei, Supreme Leader of Iran
• American adversary Recep Tayyip Erdogan, President of Turkey

Answer: None of the above. It was Dr. Anthony Fauci!

♦ Which person, foreign or American, said on January 21, 2020, that the corona virus “was not a major threat to the United States” and on January 23^rd downplayed the virus’ potential impact on the U.S?

• S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams
• TV host Dr. Mehmet Oz
• The entire staff of the NY Times

Answer: None of the above. It was Dr. Anthony Fauci!

I could go on and on, but you get the point, which is that the “experts” are wrong or partisan or biased so often that healthy skepticism is warranted about everything they say.

Examples abound. Here is just a very very small sample:

• The DES disaster to prevent miscarriages in the 1950s-‘60s that resulted in devastating cancers of the reproductive organs of children.
• The tragedy of Thalidomide in the ‘60s to calm the nerves, that resulted in grotesque deformities in children born of pregnant mothers who took the pills.
• The Dalkon Shield intrauterine birth-control devices of the 1970s were taken off the market for causing sterility and pelvic inflammatory disease.
• Here are some of the drugs taken off the market over the years that caused horrific side effects or death after widespread recommendations by doctors.
• And let’s not forget Vioxx

MODEL THIS!

Speaking of the people who occupy the podium with President Trump every day, there is the impressively credentialed Dr. Deborah Birx who apparently thinks she is still in a laboratory with rats on a treadmill and speaking with her research contemporaries instead of the American public when she intones about:

• “the level of granularity”
• “triangulation”
• “a big bolus”
• “logo-rhythmic bias”
• “mitigation”

I say to the good doctor the same thing I’ve said to every lawyer I’ve ever consulted: English please!

Like Dr. Fauci, Dr. Birx delivers doomsday messages––and graphs––in dulcet tones. While Dr. Fauci predicts 100,000 to 200,000 deaths in the most dispassionate, clinical way, Dr. Birx shows us graphs with terrifying peaks of disease incidences and mortality and then “hopes” they don’t happen.

But in spite of the cozy embrace of Dr. Birx by far-left TV and print media whores like the NY Times, Vanity Fair, the list is endless, questions––unanswered questions––abound.

Is it a coincidence that the model Dr. Birx uses to assess the progress of the virus––the IHME, Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation––is funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and that she, Dr. Birx, sits on the board of that foundation and has received mountains of money from that foundation?

Is there a hidden agenda about the fact that the IMHE has used the hot spots of New York and New Jersey to project the spread of the virus in the rest of the country, resulting in a shut-down of our economy and massive unemployment?

There is good reason to question the IHME model, to the degree that writer and publisher of Canada Free Press, Judi McLeod, has exhorted President Trump to Save the Western World by booting Dr. Birx off the Corona Virus Task Force! She cites an April 2^nd Gateway Pundit story written by Cristina Laila revealing that the model the White House is relying on is “complete garbage.”

• “It Predicted 121,000 Americans Hospitalized; actual number: 31,142.
• “It predicted 1,716 people in Texas would be hospitalized; actual number: 196.
• “It predicted 2,777 people in Georgia would be hospitalized: actual number: 952.
• In Virginia, predicted 607––actual number 305.
• In Tennessee, predicted 2,214––actual number 200.
• In New York, predicted 50,962––actual number18,368.

According to writer Lee Cary, in his follow-the-money, must-read exposé of the corona virus and all its players––Fauci, Birx, the Clintons, Bill Gates, et al: “Today, two physicians essentially control the $22 trillion U.S. economy…It is time for President Trump to utilize his uncommon  common sense and put a stop to this China-orchestrated full-scale attack on our country.”

Indeed….as Jim Hoft reports, the total U.S. deaths in March 2020 were actually down 15 percent from the average of the prior four years.

“What is going on?” Hoft asks. “After shutting down the government and killing the greatest economy in the world due to deathly estimates from specialists on the coronavirus, the data is showing that this may be one great big mistake or hoax.”

For perspective:

I CAN HEAR IT NOW….

“How dare you question the integrity and motives of Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx, or suggest that their associations and political agendas are fishy, or imply that the institutions and experts they cite as unassailable vis-à-vis the corona virus––the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO)––are themselves tainted by partisan politics?

Well, thanks to the Democrats themselves, the answer to those questions are easy. Now we know that from 2009 to 2016, the man who occupied the Oval Office weaponized and politicized America’s most trusted institutions, not only defiling and disrespecting the Resolute Desk with his dirty shoes, but converting our most trusted institutions from departments dedicated to justice, law enforcement, national security, homeland security and matters of state into far-left operations designed to bring down America. Here is the short list:

• Think John Brennan of the Central Intelligence Agency.
• Think James Comey of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
• Think Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch of the Justice Department.
• Think Hillary Clinton of the State Department.

So no surprise that the guy with his feet on the Resolute Desk also contaminated the CDC and further befouled the already putrid cesspool on 2^nd Avenue in NY City––the United Nations….and its reliably hate-America satellite, WHO.

Speaking of which, looky here: “The CDC openly admits that it is fudging the COVID-19 death figures,” reports Matthew Vadum. Quoting Dr. Annie Bukacek, M.D. and expert on death certificates, “The CDC counts both true COVID-19 cases and speculative guesses of COVID-19 the same…they automatically overestimate the real death numbers, by their own admission.” 

Vadum said the same is true of the lying leftists who run New York City and NY State, Mayor Bill Di Blasio and Governor Andrew Cuomo respectively.

THE DOOMSDAY SET

Did you ever see a liberal smile…or laugh out loud? I can actually cite on one hand the times I’ve witnessed such a phenomenon. The reason is that this species seems to have extremely high anxiety levels. They worry about everything and they buy everything that the Chicken Little doomsday purveyors sell.

In 1968, Stanford Univ. Professor Paul R. Ehrlich and his wife Anne wrote “The Population Bomb”which predicted worldwide famine in the 1970s and 1980s due to overpopulation. Liberals bought it.

In the 1970s, the “experts” said that global cooling would soon usher in a new ice age. Liberals bought it.

We all know about the ongoing fetish liberals have with global warming––that made a lot of quacks like Al Gore rich––same as the cooling fetish.

Then there was the scare over running out of food, natural resources like copper, and oil. Liberals bought it.

Now we have liberals––including the experts from Mr. Obama’s CDC and WHO, as well as Drs. Fauci and Birx and the entire left wing media––wringing their hands and tearing their hair out, absolutely convinced that unless the entire world and all their economies shut down, humanity is doomed.

Well, that’s not the real reason they’re in such visible throes of hysteria. The real reason is because they thought and hoped and chanted to the earth goddess Gaia that if they were able to destroy the best economy and highest employment in world history––among President Trump’s many astounding accomplishments––his reelection would be doomed.

The problem is––liberals are always wrong! They’ve always been wrong! And to their everlasting horror, they were wrong about the presidential election that predicted a Hillary victory right up to 8 p.m. on November 8, 2016.

Then this Democrat cabal of America haters tried to destroy the president with the Russian hoax and the Stormy Daniels hoax and the Ukraine hoax and the impeachment hoax and all of them failed miserably.

So now their nemesis is in power and in charge, driving them even more clinically insane than they are ordinarily.

In mere weeks, President Trump marshals national and international assistance from industry, organizations, political factions, and individuals that would qualify him for Five-Star General status. That is not hyperbole….this is a war, as he says, against an invisible enemy!

He touts the excellent results he’s heard about––which have since been widely affirmed––in treating corona virus patients with hydroxychloroquine, in combination with Azithromycin and zinc, and the experts on his task force talk about the constipated process of clinical trials and vaccine development that take years.

He embodies the qualities of an optimist, realistic about the present but genuinely positive about the future, and the doomsday liberals resort to their old standbys––gratuitous insults and popping their anti-depressant and anti-anxiety fixes.

He is presented with the kind of daunting existential challenges the likes of which George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Harry Truman faced, and he addresses them with executive confidence, a lifetime of success, and a burning love for America the Beautiful.

Thank you, Mr. President. With you at the helm, Americans are the luckiest people on the earth!

Several months ago, my husband Steve had a bad cold. I plied him with tea and honey and chicken soup (aka Jewish penicillin), bought over-the-counter bromides that promised relief,kept him away from people and people away from him, and even insisted that he try a folk remedy I was told was very effective and proved to be––smearing Vicks VapoRub on the bottoms of his feet (with socks over them) at nighttime, the better to wake up with clear nasal passages and lungs.

And that was for the common cold!

And Steve wasn’t running for anything, much less President of the United States!

What I did takes place millions of times a day not only across the United States but the entire world––women taking care of their husbands, doing everything possible to protect them from harm or hurt.

No doubt, that was Jill Biden’s intention when she married the senator from Delaware in 1977, and raised not only the daughter they had together, but his young sons, Beau and Hunter, after the senator’s first wife and baby daughter were killed in a horrific car accident in 1972.

As the years elapsed, Senator Biden became Vice President Biden––for eight years––and the power couple Jill and Joe gained worldwide fame and huge wealth.

But before that, Jill juggled raising their three children with earning a doctoral degree in education and then teaching for years in a psychiatric hospital where her students were emotionally disturbed children and adolescents.

Surely, in both her education and clinical work, she was aware of, sensitive to, knowledgeable about––and protective of––the students whose limitations rendered them incapable of higher function.Surely she became capable of detecting, even diagnosing, thought and speech disorders, dissociative thinking, and incoherent ramblings.

The following examples are sad to witness and once again raise the very serious question: What is wrong with Jill Biden?

• Joe Biden says he’s a “candidate for US Senate”
• Joe Biden Flunks His First Attempt To Look Presidential
• A Half-Sedated Looking Joe Biden Devolves Into Incoherence on The View
• Biden on Coronavirus: “We Have to Take Care of the Cure–That Will Make the Problem Worse No Matter What”
• “We hold these truths to be self-evident….”
• Yikes…and now this! Joe Biden’s Sexual Assault Accuser Breaks Silence With Graphic Allegations
• Coronavirus is killing the Biden campaign––and making him look like a fool

WHERE DID THAT INSIGHT GO?

Why is Jill’s understanding, empathy, take-charge persona missing in action when it comes to protecting her clearly diminished husband, who even a casual observer can see is suffering either from early––or not-so-early––dementia or Alzheimer’s disease? If Joe and Jill Biden were sitting in the office of any neurologist in America, the doctor would immediately put the VP candidate on medication to alleviate his obviously florid symptoms of dementia.

The Bidens are practicing Catholics. Jill certainly must have taken her wedding vows seriously: “I, Jill Stevenson, take thee, Joseph Biden, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part…”

We believe the cherish thing, but what happened to the “in sickness and in health” vow? Does Jill Biden really believe that it means to “support” her clinically compromised husband in continuing the painful process of slogging it out till November, by propping him up, by letting him read telepromter words others have written but he can’t get through?

Does she believe her role is to plaster on a perpetual Cheshire Cat grin before a media that are collaborating with her in the “everything is great” hoax, rescuing her husband when appropriate behavior fails him, and pretending that his disjointed, confused, indeed bizarre utterances somehow, magically make sense.

At this point, every Joe Biden appearance is the Emperor’s New Clothes, with the entire Democrat establishment––including everyone on NBC, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, the NY Times, the Washington Post, et al––going along with this pitiful charade, while ignoring or forgetting the fact that the American people they hold in such contempt have eyes and ears!

WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON?

Jill Biden is now 68 and she and Joe are the very wealthy owners of several lavish homes and who knows how many other sources of affluence.

By appearances, I’m guessing that Jill is also quite healthy. That is why it stretches the imagination that either she or her husband––who is pushing a doddering 78––want to spend the next four years of their lives glad-handing foreign potentates, fielding the conflicting and contentious demands of the American electorate, or generally weathering the ferocious slings and arrows aimed relentlessly at the highest office in the land.

For Joe Biden, this would be a lot of been-there/done-that, so what is his race for the presidency all about? Even more curious, what’s in it for Jill?

I believe that Joe Biden was selected as Barack Obama’s VP because of his inherent malleability and weakness. The powers-that-be had no doubt that they could plant any idea, policy, pet project, et al, in Joe’s ear and trust that he would echo their sentiments verbatim. This trust, of course, was based on Joe’s long history of echoing––actually stealing––the words of other people in a series of plagiarism scandals.

And he delivered––whether it was leveling poisonous threats to Israel that emanated from the Oval Office or executing two massive money laundering and bribery schemes in the Ukraine, or helping himself and Obama and their cronies to make billions off China trade deals and regulatory policies, on and on.

AHA! THE RIGHT GUY TO DEFEAT TRUMP!

Again, I suspect that the powers-that-be––among them brainiacs like David Axelrod, Valerie Jarrett, and especially George Soros, who appears, through his massive contributions, to own the Democrat Party, the Democratic National Committee, and most if not all Democrat fund-raising committees––got together and decided to back Joe Biden because they knew with absolute surety they could control him once in office. In the same way, I believe, Mr. Soros and Ms. Jarrett ran the country during Mr. Obama’s regime.

And when it became clear to them––as it has to the rest of America––that this faltering man will be lucky to make it till November, they simply whispered in Jill’s ear:

• Stay in the game,
• We’ve rigged this election so it will work this time,
• We’ll take care of the judiciary so Joe (and you) are not indicted,
• We’ll run the country just as we did for Obama,
• Just smile and fake it till you make it to November!

While Joe may have understood the imperative of him running when these offers were initially made, it’s doubtful that he understands them now, or that by November it will matter to him at all.But if my theory is correct, you can bet that Jill gets it 100%!

ENTER THE X FACTOR

All of a sudden, here comes the corona virus from China, spreading exponentially throughout the world into a genuine pandemic. Predictably, President Trump takes control and within days:

• Assembles a world-class panel of experts,
• Shuts down travel from China and then Europe,
• Closes our borders,
• Brings all warring factions in Congress together to enact a multi-TRILLION-dollar Save-America package,
• Promises to get America back to work, hopefully by Easter or maybe a week or two later.

But instead of becoming depressed by the president’s rising popularity, all of a sudden Democrats start smiling again, as New York is deemed the epicenter of the corona virus–– according to the CDC––and Governor Andrew Cuomo steps up to offer the Donkey Party an alternative to the pitiful, cognitively failing Joe Biden.

But “Cuomo is No Hero,” says John Hinderaker of Powerline.com: “The fact that New York is the epicenter of the COVID crisis in the U.S. is no coincidence. It flows from the policies of Governor Cuomo and New York Mayor Bill DeBlasio, as well as New York City’s nature as an international hub and a closely-packed city.”

Hinderaker cites the work of Julie Kelly at American Greatness: “[N]either Cuomo nor New York City Mayor Bill DeBlasio deserve attaboys. A toxic combination of Big Apple hubris, devotion to open borders regardless of the imminent threat, and Trump-hating obstinacy fueled a stubborn strategy that left their citizens vulnerable for months.”

Even by late February,” Kelly continued, “Cuomo boasted about his state’s accessibility to foreign travelers…And the outcry about ventilators? State officials were informed several years ago that the stockpile of ventilators was woefully inadequate to handle a severe pandemic. But instead of preparing for a looming crisis and buying 16,000 ventilators, the state’s health commissioner formed a task force to develop a system to ration the life-saving equipment.”

Facts be damned, Governor Cuomo has been auditioning for the top spot for the last two weeks, and writer John Fund suggests that a ‘Draft Cuomo’ Movement could lie in the Democrats’ future.

Meanwhile, it all seems to depend on the current Democrat candidate’s wife, who seems incapable of reading the tea leaves, deciphering the signals, smelling the coffee. Which brings me to ask once again: What is wrong with Jill Biden?

Now that we’re in a de facto Martial Law mode––a shutdown of entire industries and small businesses, night time curfews, social isolation, a run on goods, huge sports events cancelled, a “shelter-in-place” mandate in California, releasing prisoners in New York (God forbid these miscreants get a flu!), Broadway gone dark, and a craven media inciting and delighting in the panic they’re causing, it is relevant to ask:

• Are the powers-that-be withholding information about a deadly germ-warfare attack on the entire world, started by an aggrieved Chinese Communist nation that was perfectly happy with the Bush1 and Clinton1&2 and Bush1&2 and Obama1&2 regimes that kowtowed to their outrageous demands and unfair trade deals but is now existentially threatened because a Patriot President expects more equitable deals?
• Isn’t it both alarmist and immoral, as reported in American Thinker by Andrea Widburg, that the fake-news media have never told the American people that the scary statistics from Italy are the result of Italy’s recent Silk Road Project agreement with China, which resulted in more than 300,000Chinese workers entering Italy?
• Is it just one of those strange coincidences that one of the four richest men in the world, the uber-leftist and population-control fetishist Bill Gates––just weeks after the corona virus hit in January––stepped down from the Microsoft giant he founded in 1975, and just weeks earlier, in December, sponsored a “fictional” simulation of such a corona virus catastrophic event which spread wildly and caused 65 million deaths worldwide? Just asking.
• What are the powers-that-be not telling us? The world wide population is nearing eight billion. America has between 330-370 million people (the last 40 mil being illegals). Every day in America, 130 Americans die from an opioid overdose, 102 people from car accidents, and 2,500 from heart attacks. And yet, so far in America, 19,000 people have contracted the corona virus and 256 have died from it. Got that? Over 330-million people; 256 deaths. The swine flu of 10 years ago caused 60.8 million illnesses, and 12,469 deaths.
• Or is this yet another hysterical, sky-is-falling anxiety attack by the hand-wringing left designed to convince the American public that either Communist Bernie Sanders or a clinically cognitively-diminished Joe Biden––both inveterate tax-and-spend liberals––would be just the man to help America recover from this traumatic event and revive the stock-market they both revile?

Of course, neither one of these Big Government hacks would be capable of such a feat. Thank God for the cool, calm, collected and seasoned business mogul, President Donald J. Trump,who is guiding us through the corona virus scare with decisive action and great success––with no less than 56 bold initiatives––and who not only brought us the greatest economy and employment record in the 243-year history of our country, but will revive it when this virus scare passes into history––shortly, I predict!

WHERE ARE WE NOW?

All praise to the brilliant graphic artist (above) who captured so perfectly what we are witnessing today––the last-gasp efforts of:

• A crazed, out-of-ammunition Democrat Party,
• A doddering presumptive Democrat presidential candidate,
• Aderanged leftist media, furious at their low and devolving ratings,
• Socialist/Communist/Islamicized Europeans,
• Huge investors in the Globalist economy,
• Angry Chinese leadership,
• Failed Trump saboteurs Michael Avenatti (now in jail), Michael Cohen (now in prison), Anthony Scaramucci (now in now heresville),
• The Russian-collusion hoaxers of Obama’s FBI, CIA, State, Homeland Security, et al.
• The exposed liars in the Ukraine phone-call hoax,
• The losers of the crashing failure known as the impeachment hoax,
• The cringe-producing sore-loser Hillary Clinton, who “lost” $6-billion dollars when she was Sec. of State, and presided over the tragic loss of American lives in the Benghazi catastrophe––and then lied about it!

These are just a few of the forces who have been working overtime for the past four years to sabotage, undermine, and ultimately destroy both candidate and then President Trump, the man who single-handedly exposed:

• The Left’s seditious and I believe traitorous anti-American agenda and behavior,
• The criminality they’ve engaged in for decades with absolute impunity,
• The gouging of the United States’ economy for their own ideological and personal benefit, extorting billions that was laundered and stuffed into their own pockets,
• Their devoted allegiance to colossal hoaxes like Global Warming,
• Their abject neglect of blacks in education and where ignorance leads––ta da––prison,
• Their seething contempt if not downright hatred of the United States of America.

And yet, with all their impressive advanced college degrees, fancy credentials, exalted titles, tenure-for-life government jobs, social-media collaboration with leftist Google, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, et al, and the flagrant abuse-of-power they’ve gotten away with––but not for long!––such as illegal FISA warrants, lying witnesses, shadow-banning, rigging elections, the list goes on…they still could not bring down THE. SMARTEST. GUY. IN. THE. ROOM.

TEARING THEIR HAIR OUT

Now, almost eight months from a presidential election, all of these forces are desperate, anguished, just-about suicidal with frustration. What can we do, they are asking themselves, to stop President Trump from winning a second term and then crushing for all time the remaining malignant remnants of the leftist agenda?

While none of them are smart enough to have created the corona virus threat, they secretly celebrated the fact that this crisis would prevent the president from conducting his two or three rallies a week around the country, where upwards of 50,000-75,000 people line up for days on end to applaud and support their president.

Well, they got their wish. Now he is on TV every single day, showing the entire country (and world) what genuinely strong and effective leadership is all about––which is why his approval ratings are skyrocketing!

Undaunted, the frantic left is spending untold billions,not to help the deserving people affected adversely by the corona virus, but, as Daniel Greenfield documents exhaustively, “to smear President Trump and undermine the administration. How patriotic of them.”

Greenfield cites the Super Pac which leftist billionaires––Hollywood producer Jeffrey Katzenberg, financier George Soros, the list is long––are using to attack President Trump over the corona virus.Many if not all of them are more successful and savvy than most people in the world––but I repeat, none of them a match for THE. SMARTEST. GUY. IN. THE. ROOM!

WHERE ELSE THE OPPOSITION COMES FROM

Three years ago, I wrote an article called “The Hate-America Death Squads” in which I described the forces we are witnessing today, all of whom exult when America has trouble.

DEATH SQUAD #1 is the Cloward-Piven Strategy, begun in 1966 and flourishing to this day. In short, the founders of this plan, from Columbia Univ.,loathed America and insisted that capitalism could be collapsed by overloading the government with financial demands that could not be met. They also formed voter-fraud schemes like Project Vote, ACORN, etc, still extant only with different names. And surprise, surprise – ACORN’s lawyer was none other than Barack Obama. Birds of a feather, and all that.

DEATH SQUAD #2 Saul Alinsky, a community organizer from Chicago, wrote the bible for hate-America leftists: Rules for Radicals. Hillary Clinton wrote her Wellesley thesis about Alinsky and remained close friends with him years after she graduated, and Barack Obama became a community organizer in the Alinsky mode. Both of them shared Alinsky’s real goal––to destroy capitalist America and turn it into the socialist-cum-communist regime they preferred.

DEATH SQUAD #3 is and was the left wing media––or what Dr. Drew Pinsky calls  “the corrupt, uninformed, morally reprehensible American press––notorious for skewing the “news” in a Marxist direction. Remember, most media anchors and news readers take their marching orders directly from bosses who are extremely invested in the global economy and not in President Trump’s economy, which has brought millions of jobs and manufacturing and profits back to the United States in order to Make America Great Again and Keep America Great!

DEATH SQUAD #4 is the Muslim Brotherhood which seeks the downfall of America, a phenomenon writer Linda Goudsmit explains in explicit and exquisite detail: “Islam is an expansionist socio-political movement with a religious wing created 1400 years ago.” Then and now, Islam “seeks world dominion––the establishment of a worldwide Islamic caliphate ruled by Islamic sharia law,” which is incompatible and anathema to American law and the U.S. Constitution.

DEATH SQUAD #5 is comprised of left wing billionaires, mentioned above, who fund the hate-America groups like Occupy Wall St., Antifa, et al, as well as the politicians who have brought us Sanctuary Cities, no-bail laws, and attempts to rob Americans of their First Amendment right of Free Speech, Second Amendment right to bear arms, the power of capitalism to lift all boats, and belief in God.

THE GOOD NEWS

• Medications to treat the corona virus are now being discussed,as Scott Johnson from Power line reports, among them is the anti-malaria drug, The Israeli pharmaceutical company Teva is donating six-million doses of the medication to U.S. hospitals starting March 31^st, and by the end of April 10 million will be shipped. President Trump has asked the Food and Drug Administration if it can expand the use of the drug as an experimental treatment for coronavirus patients. A related article in Gateway Pundit reported that a chloroquine study showed a 100% cure rate for patients infected with the corona virus.
• And just as I’m writing this article, an explosive article is broadcast reporting that three international studies from China, Australia and France show that chloroquine with the antibiotic azithromycin shows100% success in treating corona virus in six days!
• The ridiculous ban on plastic grocery bags is being temporarily lifted because, as John Tierney reports, the reusable tote bags “that politicians and environmentalists have been so eager to impose on the public…can sustain the COVID-19 and flu viruses…[a fact] that was clearly demonstrated in a 2018 study published in the Journal of Environmental Health. “
• Nobel laureate Michael Levitt, an American-British-Israeli biophysicist who teaches structural biology at Stanford University…offered the public reassurance during the peak of China’s coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak. “Levitt did not discover a treatment or a cure…he crunched the numbers” and predicted that the spread of the virus would come to a halt.“His forecasts turned out to be correct: the number of new cases reported each day started to fall as of February 7. A week later, the mortality rate started falling as well.”
• Here is a good way to track the progress of the corona virus.
• Here is an imporant video on the origins of the Chinese corona virus.

All this is devastating to Democrats, but there is a solution. Simply plaster this poster in every newspaper and all over the Internet and watch how quickly the corona virus scare vanishes into thin air!

“Though marked by levity, Purim is deadly serious: We are reminded that Haman exists in every generation and that we Jews dare not ignore our own identity.” —Rabbi Meir Y. Soloveichik 

This year, the Jewish holiday of Purim begins on Monday, March 9^th and ends on March 10^th. It is a significant holiday that has everything to do with Jewish survival, which today is as relevant as it was throughout Jewish history, not only 75 years ago in Nazi Germany when six-million Jews were savagely incinerated in burning ovens while the entire world looked on, but also 3,000, 4,000, 5,000 years ago!

The story of Purim takes place in ancient Persia (now Iran). The Holy Temple in Jerusalem had been destroyed more than 50 years earlier and the Jews had become servile subjects in Persia.

The King of Persia, Ahasuerus, who was drunk at the time, became furious with his exquisite wife Vashti when she refused to undress before his court, so he ordered her execution. But after her death, he became lonely and had his servants orchestrate a beauty contest so he could pick another wife. When Esther appeared, he was enchanted with her great beauty and married her, making her the Queen of Persia.

Unbeknownst to the King, Esther was a Jewish orphan who had been raised by her cousin Mordechai. Shortly after she became queen, Mordechai overheard two of the king’s chamberlains discussing a plot to assassinate him. Mordechai reported the plot, and the traitors were hanged.

But one of the king’s ministers, Haman, was a fanatical Jew hater, exactly like so many Democrats are today––“Rev.” Louis “the powerful Jews are my enemy” Farrakhan, “Rev.” Al “Jews are bloodsucking Jew bastards,” “white interlopers” and “diamond merchants” Sharpton, Democrat Linda Sarsour, the “official surrogate” of Democrat Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign, “Jew-hater-on-steroids musician Roger Waters, the list is endless.

And that is not to omit Democrat Rep. Ihlan Omar (MN), Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib (MI)––who was recently nominatedas anti-Semite of the Year by StopAntisemitism.org.––Democrat Rep. Ayanna Pressley (MA), and Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY), all of whom appear to loathe America and detest Jews and Israel, sentiments they often express. In addition, they have lamented the death of the Iranian arch-terrorist Qasem Soleimani, steadfastly refused to condemn the epidemic of anti-Semitism on campuses across America, and engaged in a steady stream of anti-American and anti-Semitic rantings.

That’s right, the very people presidential candidate Joe Biden (D-DE) cannot bring himself to condemn! No surprise here, as former VP Biden presided over the illegal and unconstitutional Iran Deal, which gave the virulently anti-American, anti-Semitic mullahs in Iran $150 billion dollars in cash to create nuclear weapons with Tel Aviv’s address on them!

Can’t get more Jew hating than that!

Oops, did I forget to mention the other presidential front-runner, Democrat Bernie Sander (VT)? As Daniel Greenfield writes: “Like Karl Marx, Bernie Sanders is one of those non-Jewish people of Jewish derivation whom Jews hate and anti-Semites love.And Bernie keeps pouring fuel on the fire, expressing his disdain for Jews and Jewish causes, while cozying up to anti-Semitic figures…”

Getting back to the story of Purim, when Mordechai refused to bow down to Haman, Haman ordered the Persians to rise up against the Jews and kill them all––men, women and children. However, Mordechai learned of the plan and pleaded with Esther to intercede with the king on behalf of all the Jews who were targeted for death.

Through both intelligence and guile, she ultimately succeeded. She revealed that she was Jewish to the king, Haman was exposed and hanged, Mordechai was elevated in the king’s court, and the king allowed Esther and Mordechai to issue a decree allowing the Jewish people to attack their enemies preemptively, a successful campaign that resulted in saving the Jewish people from annihilation.

NOTE: FDR, to his everlasting shame, clearly never read the Book of Esther!

PLUS ÇA CHANGE…

Today, two decades into what we would like to believe is an evolved 21^st century, the same obsessive hatred––based largely on psychotic jealousy––is fueled by:

• The vast networks of unregulated social media that spread anti-Semitic blood libels with maniacal glee and total impunity.
• DNA anti-Semites––in America, Europe, et al––once again emerging from their hate holes.
• A growing number of Democrat elected officials.
• The Democrat Party whose members, by their thunderous silence on the anti-Semitic statements and votes of their colleagues, de facto encourage and indeed sanction the widespread dissemination of the oldest hatred of mankind.

Here are just a few out of thousands of examples:

• Maniacal Tiffany Harris, who makes a habit of slapping and spewing vulgarities at Jewish people on NY City subways, has been repeatedly released without bail in the city run by Democrat Mayor Bill Di Blasio and in the state run by Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo, both of whom support and embrace the new no-bail law.
• The Boycott-Divest-Sanction (BDS) movement seeks to destroy Israel through economic sanctions. And yet House Democrats––including Long Island Representatives Tom Suozzi and Kathleen Rice––demonstrated their anti-Israel, anti-Semitic bias by voting to block an anti-BDS bill which would have forbade domestic support for foreign boycotts of Israel from organizations like the anti-American, anti-Semitic United Nations Human Rights Council and European Union (which still refuses to designate Hezbollah and Hamas as terrorist organizations).
• The cases of Jew and Israel hatred on campuses all across America are too numerous to mention here, although the Middle East Forum’s Campus Watch does an excellent job of monitoring the frequent and often violent acts that take place routinely on U.S. college campuses, which blogger Pamela Geller says have become cesspools for left-wing Jew hatred and totalitarianism.

The august Melanie Phillips spells out in ghastly detail (read the entire article!):

• A recent carnival in Belgium featured floats depicting Jews as insects and participants in Nazi uniforms;
• A carnival in Spain, ostensibly to commemorate the Holocaust, featured dancing Nazis, concentration-camp prisoners in sequined tights and Israeli flags, and a ‘gas chamber’ float with a giant Hebrew menorah between two chimneys;
• In Britain, anti-Semitic incidents rose last year to an unprecedented high;
• In France, anti-Semitic attacks soared by more than 75 percent last year;
• In Germany, anti-Semitic incidents are rising at a similar rate;
• In the United States, more than 50 Jewish community centers in 23 states have received e-mailed bomb threats, attacks on Orthodox Jews are reported daily, there have been synagogue murders in Pittsburgh and Poway, and widespread bullying of Jewish students on college campuses.

“This is all inextricably tied up with hatred of Israel,” Phillips says. “Better advocacy for Israel, necessary as that is, will not address this anti-Jewish derangement…and the problem—and tragedy—for the Jewish people is that so many of those subscribing to this liberal onslaught are themselves Jews.

But Democrats will still vote for a clinically diminished Biden and whomever actually runs the country in his stead. Why? Because of their holy grails: abortion, open borders, a weak military, unemployed blacks, gay marriage, fidelity to globalism, and the hoax of climate change, et al.

The survival of Judaism and the safety and security of Israel don’t matter to them!

WEAK JEWS, A STRONG ISRAEL

Unfortunately, these Democrats include a large Jewish community that has been tethered to the Party for 100 years, not because it is empirically the “party of the people,” or has done anything to improve the lives of its most devoted adherents, but rather because American Jews have largely been spared the ravages of the 5,000-year history that saw Jews enslaved in Egypt for 400 years, marginalized in pogroms and ghettos, victimized in the vicious Crusades and Inquisition, wandering the world in a cruel Diaspora, and murdered in cold blood in the Holocaust.

Spared to live life in freedom in America, spared to not have to look over their shoulders or cower in fear, and spared to invent a new form of Judaism in which, ironically, victimization became enshrined and their new calling card was Social Justice––a movement more based on narcissistic self-aggrandizement than do-gooderism.

No one describes the devolution of America’s leftist-liberal-progressive Jews more powerfully than Lauri B. Regan in her stunning article, “G-d Is Testing American Jews. They Are Failing.” Regan compares today’s leftist Jews to those who distrusted Moses on Mt. Sinai and created a golden calf to worship.

“Today’s Diaspora Jews,” Regan writes, “are worshiping a different type of false idol.  For eight years, it took the form of Barack Obama, but he was only representative of a progressive ideal for which Jews are constantly searching.  Our history of slavery, torture, dhimmitude, persecution, and genocide has led to a people who desperately seek peace, obsess over “tikkunolam” and social justice, and worship at the Torah of Liberalism.” American Jews are fixated“on every victim class but their own…and the Democrat Party…is harming the survival of our people.”

“Our national population is minuscule––approximately 2%,” Regan continues. “Our power is not in our numbers, but in our voices––and our voices are becoming dangerously self-destructive.”

Yet, it is also true and thrilling to people like me that Israel is now a strong and thriving democratic state with a military of immeasurable strength, capable of taking on and annihilating those who wish her ill, and that includes not only bellicose enemies in the Middle East but, on a morale basis, also her ideological enemies like the thugs in the United Nations and the anti-Semites in the U.S. Congress and the Jew haters throughout the world.

Again, for the remaining Jews like me who care very much about the magnificent culture of Judaism, our disproportionately huge contribution of ethics, law, art, music, literature, science, medicine, and technology to the world, and the true social justice that demands equitable treatment and not blind, envy-fueled hatred, the resolve to defeat our enemies never flags.

To combat the rising tide of Jew hatred, Charles Jacobs and Avi Goldwasser, co-founders of Americans for Peace and Tolerance, have created An Action Plan for a New Jewish Leadership, which, among its 10 bullet points, includes:

1. Increase Physical Security to Protect the Community, including increased police presence, neighborhood security patrols, facilitation of gun ownership, and holding public officials accountable for indifference or willful inaction to confront Jew-hatred.
2. As sanctity of life is the highest Jewish value, allocate more resources for the defense of the Jewish community and less for projects of social justice.
3. Educate the community and the public about the nature and sources of Jew-hatred. Like all hatred, Jew-hatred is based on envy and resentment (in this case, of Jewish success) and the tendency to blame others for the haters’ failures and inadequacies. Jew-hatred has always been aimed at the elimination of Judaism (forced conversion), or of Jews (Final Solution), or of the Jewish state (anti-Zionism). Jew-hatred is promoted by lies and demonization, propelled by class warfare, and now also by identity politics.
4. Build alliances based on mutual interests and honest reciprocity, not virtue-signaling.

I would add the following….it is clear that the Jewish organizations that once strongly advocated for Jewish issues and fought anti-Semitism aggressively no longer do so unless they involve politically correct issues that won’t inspire the vindictive wrath––and financial support––of Jewish Democrats.

These include: the UJA-Federation, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the American Jewish Committee (AJC), the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)­, the Hillel chapters on college campuses and the Reform movement.

So don’t count on these organizations and don’t send them another dollar!

The good news is that, along with wide support from political conservatives, most Republicans, and the Christian Evangelical community, other Jewish advocacy organizations and publications are working tirelessly to combat the relentless assaults of the Jew- and Israel-haters among us.

By Joan Swirsky

A couple of years ago, I wrote a review of Victor Sharpe’s illuminating and very timely book, Politicide.

Little did I dream that the pandemic of anti-Semitism that existed back then would explode into the virtual orgy of Jew hatred we are now witnessing every day, not only in the Middle East and Europe, but right here in tolerant, multicultural America. Very scary.

In that regard, I have updated my review to include concrete examples of this explosion, and would very much appreciate your publishing this updated version.

Many thanks for your consideration!

All the best….   Joan

Book Review:

The word Politicide was first coined by Abba Eban—Israel’s foreign minister in 1967—to describe the attempted murder of the sovereign, independent State of Israel by enemies both within and outside of the fledgling state.

When Victor Sharpe first read the word, he told me how it resonated in “the deepest parts of my heart and soul.”

A passionate student of Jewish history, Biblical and post-Biblical—as well as a prolific writer on contemporary Jewish and geopolitical issues—Sharpe was mobilized into action, believing that his determination to protect and defend Israel and to illuminate the wider public about the tiny state’s chronically imperiled status, demanded that he write a book about…Politicide!

His first Politicide book was published in 2006, with a second book following in 2009, and a third book in 2011. Now he has written his fourth opus: Politicide: The attempted murder of the Jewish state.

In these riveting volumes, Sharpe describes in painful detail the annihilating attacks upon the ancient Jewish homeland by the immensely powerful Assyrian, Babylonian, Greek and Roman empires, which, significantly, no longer exist.

He also describes the inexpressible suffering endured by the stateless Jews throughout their over-2,000 years of exile in the Diaspora, during the Crusades and the Inquisition, and through the cruel expulsion of Jews from various countries including England, Spain and Portugal, the bleak pogroms in Poland and Russia, and to the worst crime in human history, the genocide during the 1940s of six-million Jews in Hitler’s German-occupied Europe.

But to counter this painful history, Sharpe describes in vivid detail the exceptional history of Jewish life from its beginning with Abraham the first Jew—the Holy Convert—who left his idol-making father after discovering the existence of the one-and-only God, thus establishing monotheism for the entire world.

He describes how Abraham and his wife Sarah, along with Isaac and Rebecca and Jacob and Leah and Rachel, became the patriarchs and matriarchs of the Jewish People in the eternal and Covenanted Land of Israel to which God brought them.

And finally, Sharpe tells the story of the miniscule but powerful 14-million Jews who now exist—half of them in the miraculous and flourishing State of Israel—in a world of seven-and-a-half billion people, including over a billion Christians and over a billion Muslims.

On November 29, 1947, the United Nations voted on Resolution 181 to declare the establishment of a Jewish State in the land to be known as Israel. Ironic, yes, that the U.N. today is a virtual cesspool of virulent anti-Semitism run by tin-pot dictators and rancid racists.

On May 14, 1948, the man who would become the first Prime Minister of Israel, David Ben-Gurion, who was then the head of the Jewish Agency, proclaimed the establishment of the State of Israel. On that very day, U.S. President Harry S. Truman recognized the new nation!

On December 6, 2017, U.S. President Donald J. Trump proclaimed the following:

“In 1995, Congress adopted the Jerusalem Embassy Act, urging the federal government to relocate the American embassy to Jerusalem and to recognize that that city…is Israel’s capital. This act passed Congress by an overwhelming bipartisan majority and was reaffirmed by a unanimous vote of the Senate only six months ago. Yet, for over 20 years, every previous American president has exercised the law’s waiver, refusing to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem or to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital city.

“Therefore, I have determined that it is time to officially recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Israel is a sovereign nation with the right like every other sovereign nation to determine its own capital…”

And yet, in the mere 72 years since Israel’s establishment, a resurgence of anti-Semitism is sweeping the globe in what can only be described as a pandemic. This is not surprising for the European countries where it once flourished or for the Muslim countries where their “holy” book mandates the death of all whom they arrogantly call infidels, Jews particularly.

But it is very disheartening that this obsessive Jew hatred is also rampant in the hallowed halls of the United States Congress, where, according to American Thinker’s Thomas Lifson, no less than seven Democrats embrace the Hitler-admiring racist “Reverend” Louis Farrakhan, whose recent remarks include that “the powerful Jews are my enemy.” Now added to the miscreants in the Democrat party and in the Democrat controlled House of Representatives are the Islamists who routinely spew anti-Jewish hatred: Rep. Ihlan Omar (D-MN), Democrat Linda Sarsour, the “official surrogate” of Democrat Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign, “Jew-hater-on-steroids musician Roger Waters, Rep. RahidaTlaib (D-MI), Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), the list of Democrat Jew haters is endless.

All this makes Victor Sharpe’s book downright urgent for readers who are interested in historical facts and not inflammatory and hateful rhetoric. Perhaps by serendipity, it is also the ideal primer for students in the not-so-hallowed halls of American academia—both Jewish and non-Jewish youth alike—whose leftist, anti-Semitic professors expose them to the obscene Boycott-Divest-Sanction movement to destroy Israel and other malevolent anti-Israel indoctrination.

In short, these are terrific, illuminating and vitally important books that readers will learn from, share with their friends, and cherish for their richness.

There is nothing new about the fanatical hatred of Jews that we see playing out in today’s world––literally a pandemic of anti-Semitism which echoes the fear and loathing that gave rise to the over-4,000-year history of the Inquisition, the Crusades, centuries of pogroms, the expulsion of Jews from country after country, and the Holocaust of the 20^th century in which six-million Jews were savagely incinerated in the crematoria of Hitler’s Germany as the entire world––including U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt––looked on and did nothing!

Plus ça change and all that. But it’s not exactly true that things have remained the same. Today, the staggering power of technology makes the spread of Jew Hate all the more rapid, powerful and lethal.

In America, while blacks, Muslims, feminists, single mothers, immigrants, the global-warming fetishists, college graduates in debt for their exorbitant-but-meaningless “educations” and minorities of every stripe all bleat endlessly about being victims of this or that indignity, slight, “unfairness,” historical insult or crime, the Annual Report on Hate Crimes released by the Uniform Crime Reporting Program of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) show that, by far, it is the world’s tiny population of Jews––15 million in a world of nearly eight billion––who experience the most bias, hatred, assaults, blatant racism and hate crimes.

I purposefully have not included the 2018 statistics from the global study on anti-Semitism by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), whose director, Jonathan Greenblatt, worked for three far-left regimes––the Clinton administration, the Obama fiasco, and the George Soros-funded Aspen Institute, and who has been accused by the founder and president of Americans for Peace & Tolerance, Dr. Charles Jacobs, of actively deceiving the American Jewish community about polling around the world that shows Islamic Jew hatred tops all others by a significantly wide margin.

“To stay anchored in the left,” explains Dr. Jacobs, “the ADL has had no choice but to bury its findings about Muslim anti-Semitism…prioritizing the protection of American Muslims over the protection of American Jews.”

Writer Isi Liebler elaborates at length on this premise, calling the ADL “a radical extension of the Democratic Party” that refuses to fight the Boycott Divestment Sanctions (BDS) movement––declared anti-Semitic by the American government––because the ADL actively supports the Marxist anti-Semitic group Black Lives Matter, which “incorporates anti-Israel passages in its platform and campaigns against anti-boycott legislation.”

HERE, THERE & EVERYWHERE

But we don’t need skewed polls from the ADL to know what is happening to innocent Jews both here and abroad.

All you have to do is to read the daily exposés on Jew hatred around the world and in America that Pamela Geller has been documenting for almost 20 years at https://gellerreport.com. ––definitely subscribe to this powerful site. Here, a small sample of typical headlines:

• Gang of five men attack Jewish teens walking on Brooklyn street.
• Blind Hate Against Israel Displayed at Times Square Rally.
• Swastika found near Coney Island Jewish Community Center.
• ‘Ugly And Racist’ Graffiti Found At Holocaust Museum In Glen Cove (Long Island).
• Jewish Student Arrested During Shabbat Services after Protesting Anti-Semitism at Amherst College.
• Attacks on Jews by Blacks in New York SKYROCKET, and the Media Ignores Because Attackers Are Not White.
• NJ shooting of Jews — bystanders blame Jewish victims.

And in other venues:

• Panel: Judge who shared ‘get the f**k over the Holocaust’ link not anti-Semitic.
• European Court of “Justice” condemns Israeli winemakers in Judea and
  Samaria but not Iran for nuclear violations.
• The esteemed Gatestone Institute‘s Denis MacEoin writes about A “Guide” to the Israeli-“Palestinian” Conflict by the United Church of Christ which leaves “no room in it for a Jewish, Israeli or moderate Christian voice; just hatred of Israel…”
• The European Union openly declares war on the Jews.
• Amnesty International Teams with Radicals to Blast Israel.
• Shock as Merkel Donates Half a Billion Dollars in Aid to Palestinian President, Paying Terrorists to Kill Jews.
• Jewish cemetery in France vandalized, over 100 graves desecrated.

ON CAMPUSES

Again, the headlines say it all:

• Tenured Columbia Professor Endorses Terrorism.
• Students at Oberlin College erect a memorial to “Palestinian” Islamic Jihad terrorists.
• Columbia ranked as worst college in US for Jewish students.
• Brown University committee on corporate responsibility votes in favor of BDS.

The 40 worst colleges for Jewish students,  according to the Algeimener.com online newspaper, include, among others at which rampant anti-Semitism flourishes––largely with impunity: Vassar College, U of Chicago, U of California LA, U of Washington (Seattle), New York University, Oberlin College, U of California Berkeley, Brown U, Brooklyn College, U of California Irvine, San Diego State U, Stanford U, Northwestern U, U of Michigan Ann Arbor, Tufts U, U of California Santa Cruz, Hunter College (NY), U of Mass Amherst, Rutgers U, U of California Davis, Ohio State U, Wesleyan U, U of North Carolina, Harvard U, U of Texas Austin, Swarthmore College, Georgetown U, Syracuse U, U of Wisconsin Madison.

* According to author, editor and blogger Ruth S. King in Tenured Cowards, “The craven indifference of academic elites to the anti-Semitism that threatens Jewish students…is reminiscent of the purges of Jewish professors and students in the darkening days following Kristallnacht in November of 1938”

Today, she continues, professors “…worry about every minority right except for the right of Jews to live in safety everywhere, including on their own campuses. These cowards, particularly Jewish professors––who preen and strut in narcissistic self-hatred––have turned their back on Jews and Israel. They will be the first to be shocked when the rising tide of international anti-Semitism comes lapping at their heels, and their cronies and friends abandon them as they have abandoned principles and decency.”

Among the vilest and most anti-Semitic groups at Harvard, Columbia and campuses across the country is Students for Justice in Palestine. By the way, will someone please tell me where on any map or Atlas in the entire world Palestine exists?

Yoo Hoo, Jewish alumni! Are you still donating to these schools? Paying them to “educate” your children. Well…stop! Let them know that their desire to extinguish Jews and annihilate Israel is the reason they will not receive another cent from you! Money Talks!

Clearly, the Arab strategy over the past many decades of spending multimillions of dollars endowing hundreds if not thousands of Chairs at colleges and universities throughout America––and especially in the D.C. area and other seats of powers, has given them total control over their preferred anti-Jewish and anti-Israel curricula, the better to contaminate the minds of students and influence America’s foreign policy vis-à-vis the historically anti-Semitic U.S. State Department.

For the first time since Israel was founded in 1948, we have a State Department under Sec. of State Mike Pompeo that is not blatantly anti-Semitic! Moreover, President Trump has just issued an Executive Order that deems discrimination against Jews on U.S. campuses to be a violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and mandates that both colleges and universities lose federal funding if they fail to combat discrimination against Jewish students.

Of course, leftists everywhere––with Democrats leading the pack––object, which is absolutely no surprise as the Democrat Party is now the Official Party of Jew Hatred.

Do sane, moderate Democrats still exist? Yes they do, and to them I say Get Out Now! Leave your Party until it is purged of its racists, which you can help to accomplish at the ballot box.*

MEDIA MAGGOTS

According to author and columnist Ben Shapiro, “Media coverage of Israel has long been skewed in favor of Israel’s enemies. Jews…are targeted by those perceived as higher on the scale of privilege. It’s the reason Rev. Al Sharpton has a show on MSNBC, the reason Democratic politicians continue to play footsie with Louis Farrakhan, the reason the New York Times ignores hate crimes in its own city…”

Social Media too––Facebook, Twitter, etc.––are hotbeds of Jew-hating fanatics, many with made-up names, cowards who routinely engage in blood libels, vicious stereotypes, and lies and rants that I, personally, interpret as jealous screeds. These are the people who lie in bed at night obsessing about Jews, blaming their own lack of success on Jews, and projecting onto Jews their own worse character traits and failings.

As ace journalist Ashley Lutz scrupulously documented in a Business Insider report, in 1983 there were 50 media companies, but today only six organizations are responsible for 90 percent of all the “news” we read, watch and listen to! They include:

• GE (Comcast, NBC, Universal Pictures, Focus Features, et al).
• NewsCorp (Fox, Wall St. Journal, NY Post, et al).
• Disney (ABC, ESPN, Pixar, Miramax, Marvel Studios, et al)
• Viacom (MTV, Nick Jr., BET, CMT, Paramount Pictures, et al)
• Time Warner (CNN, HBO, TIME, Warner Bros., et al)
• CBS (Showtime, Smithsonian Channel, NFL.com, Jeopardy, 60 Minutes, et al)

Make no mistake, the CEOs of these multibillion-dollar businesses are all leftist globalists––not a conservative among them. The last was Rupert Murdoch (Fox, Wall St. Journal, NY Post, et al) who gave control of his empire to his leftist sons Lachlan and James, hence the distinctly leftward tilt of Fox and the WSJ.

And shame on them for their positive coverage of raving anti-Semites like Cong. Ihlan Omar (D-MN), Cong. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Cong. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Cong. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and all the others who avidly support both the BDS movement to destroy Israel economically and the denial of foreign aid to America’s staunchest ally in the Middle East.

DEMOCRATS

As you read above, the Democrat Party has now––under the, ahem, leadership of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY)––become the de facto party of Jew Hate, proven by the fact that with every vicious anti-Jewish, Israel-loathing statement of the above Democrats (Omar, Tlaib, Pressley, Ocasio-Cortez, et al), there has been NOT ONE WORD of objection, but rather Speaker Pelosi appointed Rep. Omar to the Foreign Affairs Committee, where she could learn every secret of the United States and pass it along to her like-minded Jew haters both here and abroad.

As Professor Abraham H. Miller has aptly noted, “Given a choice between preserving their Jewish identity or embracing the ideology of the left, many Jews would prefer to be Democrats than Jews.”

Writer Victor Rosenthal correctly posits that “the secret to educating anti-Semites so that they will stop being anti-Semites remains undiscovered.” He goes on to suggest that “Jews should secure their institutions and arm themselves to the extent that the law permits. Self-defense training should be part of all Jewish education. Nobody is respected for being a victim.”

There are simply too many examples of the betrayal of Israel and Jews everywhere by the current anti-Semitic Democrats in the U.S. Congress to cite. Suffice a few more headlines:

• Democrats to Israel: Go to Hell.
• Dem Presidential Hopefuls (Sanders and Warren) Meet With Terrorist-Run Pay-To-Slay Group.
• In rebuke to Trump and Netanyahu, 107 Democrats pass resolution supporting 2 states (essentially cutting Israel in half).
• Jews who are leading us away from peace.
• Progressive Democrats Get it Wrong About Israel, Again.
• 154 Nations [in the rancid United Nations] Reject Israel’s Biblical Connection to the Temple Mount.
• US Presidential Candidates, Anti-Israel Groups to Share Views at Far-Left J Street Conference––where, indeed, more than one of them recommended cutting or withholding aid to Israel.

In my view, these despicable anti-Semites resemble the “just-following-orders” Germans who Daniel Goldhagen aptly described in the title of his 1996 book, “Hitler’s Willing Executioners.”

Today, the Jew haters in America––who get away with their murderous attacks under the cover of “free speech”––and the vast number of Muslim and Arab Jew haters who have predicated their entire lives on killing Jews and eliminating the State of Israel, now take their marching orders from Democrat leaders, leftwing newspapers, cowardly professors, and the megalomaniacal anti-Semitic billionaires who support them.

It is no wonder that the estimable Daniel Greenfield wrote: “There is no future for Jews on the left except as collaborators in anti-Semitism.”

WHAT TO DO

It is clear that the Jewish organizations that once strongly advocated for Jewish issues and fought anti-Semitism aggressively no longer do so unless they involve politically correct issues that won’t inspire the vindictive wrath––and financial support––of Jewish Democrats. These include: the UJA-Federation, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the American Jewish Committee (AJC), the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)­, the Hillel chapters on college campuses and the Reform movement.

So don’t count on these organizations and don’t send them another dollar!

The good news is that, along with wide support from political conservatives, most Republicans, and the Christian Evangelical community, other Jewish advocacy organizations and publications are working tirelessly to combat the relentless assaults of the Jew- and Israel-haters among us.

Writer’s note: I wrote the following article last year, but it now appears that Hillary’s mental condition and pathological desperation have devolved. Just this week, she accused the leftist presidential candidate, Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI)––a combat veteran and Major in the Hawaii Army National Guard––of being a  “Russian asset”  groomed to ensure President Trump’s reelection.

Rep. Gabbard—also, according to Christopher W. Holton, is a “dangerous shill for the Ayatollahs––fired back with a scathing tweet: “Great! Thank you @HillaryClinton. You, the queen of warmongers, embodiment of corruption, and personification of the rot that has sickened the Democratic Party for so long, have finally come out from behind the curtain.”

Indeed, the twice-failed presidential candidate is the woman who as Secretary of State received $150 million from Russia after giving Putin 2O percent of U.S. Uranium––a key material of nuclear bombs. And let’s not forget that Bubba got $500,000 dollars for a 30-minute speech in Moscow amid the Uranium One deal and The Clinton Foundation got $145 million!

All of which dovetails beautifully into my thesis that Hillary is putty in the hands of powerful men who have used her for decades to enhance their own power, essentially spitting in her face when they’re through with her “services.”

ARTICLE FROM LAST YEAR

In Hillary’s cringe-producing appearances over the past year and a half––since she lost the U.S. presidency in 2016 to Donald J. Trump––she has offered upward of 38 excuses to rationalize her loss, which Amanda Prestigiacomo has documented here exquisitely.

Among those excuses were sexism, the mainstream media, the electoral system, the Democratic National Committee, the Democrat Party, suburban women, stupid Americans, technology, deplorables, and, laughably, that she was “too honest.”

You get the picture––a classic, clinical case of paranoia and delusional thinking.

Oops…did I say 38 excuses? Make that 39! At a Shared Value Leadership Summit in New York City this past April, Hillary told the audience that she lost because she was a capitalist!

Right…and Donald Trump won because he’s a Communist!

Oops…did I say 39 excuses? Here, lawyer and Fox News commentator Gregg Jarrett lists 56 of Hillary’s excuses…and counting!

Among that Mt. Kilimanjaro of Hillary’s excuses, Jarrett lists: racism, misogyny, James Comey, the FBI, Russians, Vladimir Putin, WikiLeaks, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Twitter, Netflix, Chief Justice John Roberts, and The Drudge Report.

You get the picture––a classic case of Hillary’s pathological inability to look in the mirror!

Actually, the genuinely pitiful and self-deluding Hillary is so blind to her own behavior and so clueless about even the concept of accountability that she has spent her entire adult life not seeing what is obvious to literally everyone in the world!

Specifically, people don’t like when someone speaks one way and acts another. It is all well and good for this or that self-described feminist to talk about equality in the workplace, shared responsibility for raising children, and “woman power.” But everyone knows the following:

That Hillary’s “workplace” experience was a direct result of her husband’s position as, first, Governor of Arkansas, and second as President of the United States.

That their shared responsibility for raising their only child Chelsea fell largely to nannies.

That the woman power thing meant nothing in the face of the decades she spent tolerating her husband’s multiple affairs and humiliating abuse––and vilifying his victims!

Excuse No. 57 seems be that she was bullied in school…at least that’s the tale of woe she chose to tell a class of eighth graders when she gave the commencement speech at a tony San Francisco private school just a week ago.

Can excuse No. 58 be that Eleanor Roosevelt told her during one of Hillary’s famous séances that the election was rigged?

A SORDID HISTORY

Hill and Bill graduated from Yale Law School in 1973, married in 1975, and moved to Arkansas, where in pretty short order Bill won election as the Attorney General (from 1977-1979) and Governor of Arkansas (from 1979-1981 and 1983 to 1992).

During those years, Bill had a 12-year affair with singer and model Gennifer Flowers. Every day and every night of that affair, Bill was hurling saliva in the face of his wife Hillary, the human spittoon.

A spittoon, by the way, is a receptacle for spit, largely obsolete today, except for the human spittoon known as Hillary––the arch poster girl for literally more than four decades of non-stop spit abuse.

This is not an article about Bill Clinton’s testosterone levels or irresistible compulsion to seduce women other than his wife, but rather why any woman––particularly his wife––would withstand almost half a century of wiping saliva off her face and pretending that it’s raindrops.

My personal observation is that Hillary somehow realized––probably as a young girl––that there was something about her, both her personality and her character, that was strangely unlikable, even repellent and alienating. And that realization led her to conclude––accurately––that she could never actualize her far-left goals on her own without significant help from powerful men.

In 1973, fresh out of law school, she depended on a powerful man, Jerome Zeifman, a lifelong Democrat, to appoint her to the prestigious position of investigator on the Watergate Committee to impeach or fire President Richard Nixon.

According to Zeifman, however, he had to fire Hillary for a lack of ethics! “She was a liar, she was an unethical, dishonest lawyer [and] she conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

THE SALIVA TSUNAMI

Zeifman spat in Hillary’s face… big time! But the very next year, she married Bill, ushering in a virtual lifetime of saliva!

Whatever Hillary claimed she was doing in Arkansas for women and children, it pales in comparison to the uncountable affairs her husband was having in plain sight––and the buckets of saliva she was wiping off her face every day and every night!

CNN, of all leftist and Clinton-supporting TV outlets, catalogued these “alleged” affairs and “non-consensual encounters” in elaborate detail. The very short list of those affairs, both in the “Natural State” and in Washington, D.C., were:

• Gennifer Flowers: a 12-year affair.
• Dolly Kyle Browning: Clinton’s high school friend reported off-and-on sexual encounters from the mid-1970s through January 1992.
• Elizabeth Ward Gracen: Miss America of 1982.
• Sally Perdue: Miss Arkansas of 1958.
• Juanita Broaddrick, R.N.: Arkansas nursing home administrator who accused Clinton of rape in 1978.
• Paula Jones, who said Clinton propositioned and exposed himself to her in 1991…he settled her lawsuit for $850,000.
• Kathleen Willey (Democrat activist and White House volunteer who said that in 1993, Clinton grabbed and kissed her in the Oval Office’s private study.
• Monica Lewinsky: White House intern whose affair with Clinton led to his impeachment.

In each and every instance of these extra-marital encounters––which occupied many many hours of his days and nights––Bill Clinton was hawking large globs of saliva in Hillary’s face. As if that were not enough humiliation, a 1995 biography “contained irrefutable evidence from one of their most trusted friends, Betsey Wright, who had been his chief of staff for seven years when he was the governor of Arkansas,” that Arkansas state troopers helped to solicit women for Bill. Of course, the White House put pressure on Wright to deny her account and she issued a statement saying she had been “misinterpreted.” But the author of the book insisted that he had cleared all the quotes with her in advance.

More telling is that in every single instance of Bill’s purported affairs, what did Hillary do? She sided with her abuser!

Was this dumb of Hillary? Pathetic? Cravenly political? Or, perversely, were Bill’s infidelities a turn-on for Hillary?

Indeed, one can speculate about motives, but some motives are crystal clear, as Kathy Shelton can tell you. In 1975, when she was 12 years old, according to journalist Bre Payton, Kathy was brutally raped by 41-year-old Thomas Alfred Taylor. Unfortunately for Kathy, Hillary represented Taylor and told the jury that young Kathy essentially asked to be raped.

According to reporter Alana Goodman, Hillary knew––and laughed about the fact––that Taylor was guilty at the time, but “used a legal technicality to plead her client, who faced 30 years to life in prison, down to a lesser charge.” She also laughed at the crime lab’s accidental destruction of DNA evidence that tied Taylor to the crime.

Some advocate for women and children! Even before Bill’s serial pattern of spitting in Hillary’s face, she was spitting in the face of a preteen rape victim!

NEW NAME FOR AN OLD PATHOLOGY

Women who spend their lives taking abuse from men––as Hillary has––is not a new phenomenon. All over the world, there are women in relationships with or married to men who spank them, beat them up, chain them, walk them around like dogs on leashes, and yes, spit on them.

Given Hillary’s lifetime of passively tolerating her husband’s non-stop, in-her-face spit-a-thon and her habit of blaming the women, I think it’s high time that The American Psychiatric Association considered including a new category in their bible of psychiatric disorders, the DSM––The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders––much like NPD (narcissistic personality disorder) or BPD (borderline personality disorder or ASPD (anti-social personality disorder).

The new category might be called HSTD––Hillary’s Spit-Tolerating Disorder.

Then again, the DSM already includes Sexual Masochism Disorder, which is a condition in which women actually get aroused “in response to enduring moderate or extreme pain, suffering, or humiliation.”

I could rest my case right here, but there might be another reason Hillary put up with an abusive husband.

THE ULTIMATE APHRODISIAC

Some women melt at the sight of an athlete. Others swoon at a guy who has M.D. or C.E.O. after his name. Yet others get stars in their eyes when they see a guy toting a big wad of cash.

But for other women, the biggest aphrodisiac of all is a guy they perceive as having power. Power in business, on Wall St., in philanthropy, in politics, in the mob. Guys who call the shots, who others genuflect before, who know what power is and how to use it.

I suspect that Hillary has always been a power junkie, and that she hoped her proximity to power would rub off on her.

But just like her cluelessness about losing the presidency to Donald J. Trump because of the 58- and-counting excuses she’s been spouting to anyone who will listen, she was equally clueless about winning the New York Senate seat because of the immense and genuine power and influence of Bill Clinton and about becoming Secretary of State under Barack Obama because of the immense and genuine power and influence of Bill Clinton.

What Hillary never “got” is that power is not heritable, not transferable, not something you get by osmosis just because it happens to be your particular fetish.

Perhaps the most pitiable thing about Hillary––other than the criminal indictment that is just down the road––is her almost childlike belief that if she weathered all the saliva that her husband and other powerful men hawked in her face, she would somehow inherit their power.

Can you imagine the massive vats of saliva Hillary would be receiving from dictators like Vladimir Putin (Russia) and Kim Jong-un (North Korea) and Recep Tayyip Erdogan (Turkey) and Bashar al-Assad (Syria) and Nicolás Maduro (Venezuela) and Mahmoud Abbas (the PLO) if she were the leader of the free world?

This is a woman who will go down in history as the very embodiment of a spit receptacle––a human spittoon. This is the woman who God, in his infinite wisdom and mercy, spared us from seeing as president!

Joan Swirsky

Not long ago, I received a lengthy e-mail – “Why We Must Renew Our Commitment to the Civil Rights Movement” – from a woman named Melanie Roth Gorelick, who identified herself as Senior Vice President of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA).

Honestly, I thought it was one of the preposterous spoofs of that satirical publication, The Onion.

But no… it was the real thing.

In short, Ms. Gorelick recommended that Jews concentrate their attention not on the pandemic of anti-Semitism and violent acts against Jews throughout the world and in the United States of America, but instead on those poor oppressed blacks who have never had it better in the good ole U.S.A., thanks to President Trump!

While Ms. Gorelick briefly mentioned that there is an “increase in anti-Semitism and hate crimes” in America, her entire discourse was devoted to a plea for the Jewish community (2.8 percent of the U.S. population) to turn their impassioned efforts and energies to supporting the cause of blacks in the U.S. (14 percent of the U.S. population), who she claimed still experience grave discrimination.

This in spite of the fact that since President Trump was elected, blacks have never experienced a higher degree of employment, independence, wealth, home ownership, and freedom from discrimination in the history of our country!

Not to omit the president’s First Step Act that gives black prisoners serving lengthy sentences the first chance at freedom for relatively minor offenses that they’ve ever been offered in their lives – an opportunity never proposed by all those empathic and caring Democrats who would have kept them in prison for the rest of their lives!

THE PLIGHT OF JEWS

• Jews by the thousands are fleeing from France because of both violent physical and verbal attacks on them by Muslims that go unaddressed by the powers-that-be.
• Jews have been relentlessly assaulted, raped, and terrorized in Sweden by Muslims who go unindicted.
• Jews have been driven to hide in their basements in the United Kingdom as anti-Semitism is at an all-time high.
• Jews have been vilified in Ireland, which passed a law to support the Boycott-Divest-Sanction (BDS) movement to strangle Israel economically.
• In far-away New Zealand, the official government website published a fact sheet with a map of the Middle East that showed a fictional place called “Palestine” – but not the authentic, 71-year-old State of Israel.
• Anti-Semitic attacks in Germany – yes, Hitler’s and now Angela Merkel’s Germany – have risen by a whopping 20 percent! The country is now what writer Dogan Akman calls an anti-Semitic terrorist state.
• Jews in the United States have been mass-murdered in a synagogue, terrorized on college campuses, and spat on by the entire Democrat Party whose members supported the virulent anti-Semitic racism spewed forth from the Jew-and-Israel-hating Democrat Representatives Ihlan Omar (MN), Rashida Tlaib (MI), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY), and Ayanna Pressley (MA). In fact, recently the execrable Ms. Omar mourned the death of the Muslim Brotherhood tyrant who called Jews “apes and pigs.”
• Here, in repulsive detail, is just a small sample of the rancid hatred of these Sludge Sisters that Joel B. Pollak of Breitbart.com spells out.
• And not long ago, Bernie Sanders, the Brooklyn-born Jewish senator from Vermont who is running for president again in 2020, told his Socialist/Communist followers: “Our policy cannot be pro-Israel.”
• Then there is presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), who recently said she would push to end the Israeli government’s “occupation” of the West Bank and Gaza (which it obtained in the course of defending itself during the 1967 x-day war). Not to omit that the senator’s “Director of Progressive Partnerships” is Max Berger, co-founder of the extreme Israel-hating group “If Not Now,” the goal of which is to “end support for the occupation” – meaning to get rid of the Jews and Israel itself.
• And let’s not forget the Trenton, NJ, Democrat councilwoman Robin Vaughn, who defended a colleague’s use of the expression “Jew her down,” insisting that it’s a verb that refers to negotiating.
• Or the non-stop assaults on Jews in Brooklyn. Or the relentless calls for Jewish genocide by U.S. imams.
• Or, as writer Jonathan Tobin points out, that the Jewish community’s Reform movement – to its everlasting shame – launched a political war on President Trump right in time for the High Holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

LOOK IN THE MIRROR!

Apparently, Ms. Gorelick and others at the Jewish Council for Public Affairs think the organization should ignore these dire facts and stick to its 1960’s retro agenda of helping the blacks who Regressives believe cannot help themselves.

This is clearly an admission that the people who are traditionally known to be the “best friends” of blacks – i.e., Democrat politicians who depend on Jewish votes and prostitute themselves for the money Jewish voters send them – have all utterly failed to improve the poverty, illiteracy, high crime rate, single-mother rate, and rat-infested cities they have controlled for the past 60 years.

WHY THE WORLD’S GROWING JEW HATRED?

The widespread Jew hatred exists because in the back of the minds of all people who consider themselves oppressed is the question – Why are those damned Jews so tiny in number but so much better off than I am?

To me, the answer is simple: Too many have bought the sweetened – but toxic – Kool Aid that Democrats have sold them that has proved to be their undoing.

Think about it: Why, as documented scrupulously by Robert B. Charles, a former Assistant Secretary of State under Colin Powell and teacher at Harvard University, are the 25 worst cities in the U.S. led by Democrats? And why do the top-ten “most dangerous cities” in America, according to Forbes, all have Democrat mayors?

WHAT HELP CAN MS. GORLICK EXPECT?

For all her social-justice posturing, I wonder which black “leaders” Ms. Gorelick hopes to recruit to her mission. Let’s speculate on potential candidates.

• “Reverend” Al Sharpton, famous for creating the gigantic race-based Tawana Brawley hoax, for which he was never indicted; fomenting antisemitic race riots in Brooklyn, NY; instigating the deadly boycott of the Jewish-owned Freddy’s Fashion Mart in 1995, and his effusive praise of notorious anti-Semites like the former Nation of Islam leader Elijah Muhammed, as well as Malcolm X, Louis Farrakhan, and Khalid Abdul Muhammad. On and on, to this day! In fact, here is a mountain of evidence about other hateful acts of his to convince you never to enlist him in your ridiculous goal!
• “Reverend” Jesse Jackson, who snidely called NY City “Hymietown,” then denied it, then admitted it, but still couldn’t bring himself to condemn the Nation of Islam’s radical leader Louis Farrakhan, an aggressive anti-Semite and old Jackson ally.
• Barack Obama, a heavyweight anti-Semite – see here and here and here and here, and that’s the short list as well.
• “Reverend” Jeremiah Wright, in whose pew Mr. Obama sat for 20 years, who married Mr. Obama and his America-loathing wife Michelle, and who regularly spewed virulent anti-American and anti-Semitic “sermons” – which both Obamas mysteriously never heard!

How about the newly-elected congresswomen I referred to earlier:

• Ihlan Omar (D-MN): says Israel has “hypnotized the world” and “I pray that Allah awaken the people and help them see [its] evil doings….”
• Rashida Tlaib (D-MI): ardent supporter of the BDS movement who accuses American Jews of “dual loyalty” to both the U.S. and Israel, and supports a global economic, academic and cultural boycott against Israel.
• Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY): supports BDS and falsely and maliciously condemns Israel for committing a “massacre” against Gaza “protesters” when in fact the Arabs (who call themselves “Palestinians”) were violent rioters trying to infiltrate Israel to murder Jews.

Or maybe Ms. Gorelick would like to recruit the famous actor Danny Glover to her virtue-signaling mission – he who recently called for a cultural boycott of Israel.

And let’s not forget former president Jimmy Carter, 95 on Oct. 1st, a life-member of the Hate the Jews and Israel Club – who endorsed Hamas and laid a wreath on Yasir Arafat’s tomb.

Or how about the people I listed in a 2008 Canada Free Press article who either staffed Barack Obama’s administration or acted as his advisors or fundraisers, Jew and Israel haters all: General Merrill “Tony” McPeak, Samantha Power, Robert Malley, John Kerry, Rashid Khalidi, Anthony “Tony” Lake, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Lee Hamilton, James (“F… the Jews”) Baker, on and on.

WHAT A COINCIDENCE!

What do all of the above candidates to help Ms. Gorelick have in common? They are all Democrats!

Aha…is that what her plan is really all about and why she launched it in this presidential campaign season––to convince the American public that Democrats are really not the racists they have been for their entire 190-year history?

Does she hope that Americans will forget that Democrats opposed the abolition of slavery, created the Ku Klux Klan and the Jim Crow laws, and steadfastly voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the Civil Rights Acts of 1968, and the Equal Opportunity Act of 1972?

Does she believe that Americans will erase from their minds the ugly history of Democrat suppression of blacks, as documented so scrupulously by Bill Federer of American Minute?

Or is it because Ms. Gorelick wishes that Americans will strike from their memories the facts American Spectator’s Dan Flynn documents about Democrats’ oh-so-cozy and obsequious relationship to the Klan? This includes:

• In the 1980s, Democrat Senator Joe Biden voted to elect Robert Byrd (D-WVA), a former Exalted Cyclops of the Klan, as the leader of their party in the Senate;
• In the 1970s, a Democrat Congress named the Old Senate Office Building in honor of Richard Russell, a staunch segregationist from Georgia;
• In the late 1930s, Democrat President Franklin Roosevelt nominated Hugo Black, also a former Klansman, to the U.S. Supreme Court, where he served for decades.
• In 1924, Democrats rejected a measure to formally condemn the Ku Klux Klan at their national convention.

THE SOCIAL JUSTICE FIASCO

Liberal Jews – by and large raised in America and spared the 5,000-year history of searing hatred, slavery, oppression, and mass murder – have been drawn to leftist politics because it deludes them into thinking that if they are good enough and generous enough and even agree with their enemies enough, all their virtuous acts will somehow, magically, exempt them from the oppression and hatred their ancestors experienced.

And that by subscribing to and acting on the concept of Tikkum Olam – repair of the world––they will fit in and be appreciated, admired, liked, and accepted.

But as writer Jonathan Neumann explains in “Liberal Jews Are Destroying Their Own Religion,” the phrase tikkun olam was lifted “out of context” from a Jewish prayer before WWII to mean social justice and popularized in the 1970s and 1980s by radicals like Michael Lerner, who founded the extreme left-wing magazine, Tikkun.

“Since then,” Neumann continues, Jews “have been led to believe that the purpose of the Jews in the world is to campaign for higher taxes, sexual permissiveness, reduced military spending, illegal immigration, opposition to fracking, the banishment of religion from the public square and every other liberal cause under the sun – all in the name of God. But the truth is that tikkun olam and its leftist politics have no basis in Judaism.

“Tikkun olam is not Judaism at all but a distinct religion [which] teaches that the Jewish People is an outdated and chauvinistic relic, with no need for a nation-state of its own in its ancient homeland. Consequently, Jewish social justice activists help to defame Israel and weaken America’s bond with the Jewish State.”

The alternative, says Neumann, author of “To Heal the World? How the Jewish Left Corrupts Judaism and Endangers Israel, is “a new generation of traditionalist Jews, proud of their heritage and jealous to preserve it. These Jews know that their ancestors did not live to worship a political party nor die for faddish causes. It’s time American Jewry repaired itself instead of the world.”

To which I say, Here, Here!

But will the leftist Jews of the world wake up and smell the coffee? Realize that the people they’re fighting for loathe them? Reclaim their own glorious heritage and start to fight on behalf of their DNA brethren?

Where there’s life, there’s hope!

By Joan Swirsky

According to 2018 statistics from the Center for Disease Control (CDC), about 1 in 59 children has been identified with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), up from the one in 68 in 2016.

This updated CDC chart––from 2019––reveals the shocking escalation of autism in the U.S., which is predicted to be one in every 40 children in the near future.

PLUS ÇA CHANGE…

As always, the powers-that-be at the CDC trot out the age-old rationales to explain these disturbing statistics:

• Greater awareness and therefore earlier and more accurate diagnoses
• The role that being older parents play not only in the incidence of autism but also Down syndrome and other developmental disabilities
• Genes
• “Something” in the environment

Five years ago, a CDC study found that the incidence of autism in blacks “continues to lag behind whites and Hispanics,” which some experts attributed to racial bias––i.e., blacks lack equal access to medical care. But other experts say that blacks may simply be less vulnerable to autism for some unknown reason.

What is consistently omitted, however, is the role that ultrasound exams during pregnancy may and probably do play in the rapidly-escalating incidence of this lifelong condition.

WHAT WE KNOW TODAY

Autism is a neurological disorder that affects the normal development of the brain, causing self-defeating behaviors and an inability to form social relationships. It usually appears before the age of three. Most scientists believe that autism is strongly influenced by genetics but allow that environmental factors may also play a role.

To be diagnosed on the autistic spectrum, a child must have deficits in three areas:

1. Communication (most children can’t make eye contact; others can’t speak).
2. Social skills (typified by disinterest in both people and surroundings).
3. Typically “normal” behavior (many autistic children have tics, repetitive behavior, inappropriate affects, et al).

Those diagnosed on the autistic spectrum range from high-functioning, self-sufficient people––even geniuses––to those who need lifelong supportive help.

A LARGELY-DEBUNKED THEORY

The increased incidence of autism has been attributed by legions of parents and a number of professionals to the mercury-containing preservative thimerosol, used to prevent bacterial or fungal contamination in the vaccines babies and children routinely receive.

This is not backed up by hard science.

Thimerosol, which has been used in vaccines since the 1930s, has not been used in the U.S. since 2001 and the vaccine dosages containing the preservative that were given before then had about the same amount of mercury found in an infant’s daily supply of breast milk.

Numerous studies––by The CDC, The Institute of Medicine, The American Academy of Pediatrics, The World Health Organization, and The National Academy of Sciences, among other prestigious organizations––have found no autism-vaccine link, while other studies have shown an increase in autism in countries that have removed thimerosal from vaccines.

In fact, between late 1999 and late 2002, mercury was removed from most childhood vaccines, including DPT (Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis), Hepatitis B, and Hib [Haemophilus influenza b]. The MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella), which is a live vaccine, is not compatible with thimerosal.

What appears significant, however, is the degree to which diagnoses of mental retardation and learning disabilities throughout the country have decreased at the same time as diagnoses of autism have risen, as reported in a May 2006 issue of Behavioral Pediatrics.

Some experts theorize that “diagnostic substitution” may explain this phenomenon. Diagnostic Substitution means that children who were diagnosed with other conditions––including ADHD and learning disabilities––are now diagnosed with autism.

MY THEORY

In the early ’70s, I worked as a delivery-room nurse at a university-affiliated hospital. It was a revolutionary time in obstetrics, when the Lamaze method of “prepared childbirth” and the use of sonograms to visualize fetuses in the womb were just gaining popularity.

Ultrasound technology was first developed in Scotland in the mid-1950s by obstetrician Ian Donald and engineer Tom Brown to detect industrial flaws in ships. But it was only in the early 1970s that it was used in American hospitals to check that the developing baby, placenta, and amniotic fluid were normal and to detect abnormal conditions such as birth defects and ectopic pregnancies, et al.

At the end of the ’70s, I became a certified Lamaze teacher and spent the next 22 years giving classes in my home. In a very real way, I had my own laboratory, as I learned directly from my clients about the increasing escalation of sonogram exams.

In the early 1980s, it was common for only one or two out of the 10 women in my classes to have a sonogram. In just a few years, every woman in my classes had had a sonogram. And in the late ’80s and ’90s, almost every woman had not one but often two or three or four or five sonograms––starting as early as three-or-four weeks of gestation and extending, in some instances, right up to the ninth month!

It was in the ’90s, in fact, that it began to occur to me that the scary rise in the incidence of autism might be linked to the significant rise in ultrasound exams. Over the years, I’ve posited my theory to a number of people and written letters to the editors of newspapers––including the NY Times, for which I wrote for over 20 years, but they still refused to publish my letter.

I contacted autism researchers Dr. Marcel Just and Dr. Diane L. Williams, who told me via e-mail that Dr. Pasko Rakic at Yale was, indeed, exploring the autism-ultrasound link.

AN AHA! MOMENT

Then, in 2006, I found an article in Midwifery Today: “Questions about Prenatal Ultrasound and the Alarming Increase in Autism,” by writer-researcher Caroline Rodgers.

“The steep increase in autism,” Rodgers wrote, “goes beyond the U.S.: It is a “global phenomenon”… that “has emerged…across vastly different environments and cultures.”

“What do countries and regions with climates, diets and exposure to known toxins as disparate as the U.S., Japan, Scandinavia, Australia, India and the UK have in common?” Rodgers asked.

“No common factor in the water, air, local pesticides, diet or even building materials and clothing can explain the emergence and relentless increase in this serious, life-long neurodevelopmental disorder,” she stated.

“What all industrial countries do have in common,” she added, “is …the use of routine prenatal ultrasound on pregnant women. In countries with nationalized healthcare, where virtually all pregnant women are exposed to ultrasound, the autism rates are even higher than in the U.S., where due to disparities in income and health insurance, some 30 percent of pregnant women do not yet undergo ultrasound scanning.”

The cause of autism, Rodgers continues, “has been pinned on everything from ’emotionally remote’ mothers…to vaccines, genetics, immunological disorders, environmental toxins and maternal infections, [but] a far simpler possibility…is the pervasive use of prenatal ultrasound, which can cause potentially dangerous thermal effects.

ENTER HARD SCIENCE

In August 2006, Pasko Rakic, M.D., chair of Yale School of Medicine’s Department of Neurobiology, announced the results of a study with pregnant mice undergoing various durations of ultrasound. The brains of the offspring showed damage consistent with that found in the brains of people with autism.

The research, funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, also implicated ultrasound in neurodevelopmental problems in children, such as dyslexia, epilepsy, mental retardation and schizophrenia, and showed that damage to brain cells increased with longer exposures.

Dr. Rakic’s study, Rodgers said, “… is just one of many animal experiments and human studies conducted over the years indicating that prenatal ultrasound can be harmful to babies.”

Jennifer Margulis, author of Business of Baby: What Doctors Don’t Tell You, What Corporations Try to Sell You, and How to Put Your Baby Before Their Bottom Line, writes that Dr. Rakic “concluded that all nonmedical use of ultrasound on pregnant women should be avoided.”

In her research, Margulis discovered that “there is mounting evidence that overexposure to sound waves––or perhaps exposure to sound waves at a critical time during fetal development––is to blame for the astronomic rise in neurological disorders among America’s children.”

PROBLEMS WITH SOUND AND HEAT

A 2009 Scientific American  article by John Slocum explains that sonar––Sound Navigation And Ranging systems––first developed by the U.S. Navy to detect enemy submarines, “generate slow-rolling sound waves topping out at around 235 decibels, [while] the world’s loudest rock bands top out at only 130. These sound waves can travel for hundreds of miles under water, and can retain an intensity of 140 decibels as far as 300 miles from their source.”

This is relevant because many mass deaths and strandings of whales and dolphins have been attributed to the sonar waves emitted from Navy ships. As many as 3,000 dead dolphins were found in Peru during the summer of 2012, which researchers attributed to the deep-water sonar by ships in nearby waters. And in June of 2008, four days after a Navy helicopter was using sonar equipment in training exercises off the coast of Great Britain, 26 dolphins died in a mass stranding.

Quick question: If sonar beams can kill fully-developed dolphins, what effect do they have on the developing brains of in-utero embryos and fetuses in the first three months of development?

WHAT DOES ULTRASOUND ACTUALLY DO?

Rodgers explained that ultrasound used in fetal imaging emits high-frequency sound waves that are converted into images and waves that can heat both tissue and bone.”

She cited a warning the Food and Drug Administration issued in 2004: “…even at low levels, [ultrasound] laboratory studies have shown it can have…`jarring vibrations’ – one study compared the noise to a subway coming into a station – `and a rise in temperature.’”

Imagine how these assaults affect the fragile brain of a developing fetus!

Just as concerning, as far back 1982, a study by the World Health Organization (WHO)––”Effects of Ultrasound on Biological Systems”––concluded that “…neurological, behavioral, developmental, immunological, hematological changes and reduced fetal weight can result from exposure to ultrasound.”

Two years later, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reported that when birth defects occurred, the acoustic output [of sonograms] was usually high enough to cause considerable heat.

And yet, in 1993, the FDA approved an eight-fold increase in the potential acoustical output of ultrasound equipment, ostensibly to enhance better visualization of the heart and small vessels during microsurgery. Clearly, the health and well-being of developing fetuses was not a consideration!

“Can the fact that this increase in potential thermal effects happened during the same period of time that the incidence of autism increased nearly 60-fold be merely coincidental?” Rodgers asks.

KEEPING THE HEAT ON (so to speak)

In 2010, Ms. Rodgers presented a lecture about autism and ultrasound entitled “The Elephant in the Room” at the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. These were but a few of her shocking conclusions:

• A worldwide autism boom was identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that began in 1988-1989.
• Ultrasound use and autism are more prevalent among higher socioeconomic groups.
• An increased prevalence of autism occurs among better-educated, more affluent communities. Among other things, women in these communities have more ultrasound exams.

Women who are at higher risk of bearing children with autism include:

• Mothers who receive first-trimester care
• Mothers with higher educations
• Mothers with private health insurance
• Older mothers

Rodgers concludes: Only increased exposure to prenatal ultrasound can explain all of the above.

THOSE WHO DISAGREE

Numerous studies “prove” fetal ultrasound exams are safe, like the recent study reported in The Journal of the American Medical Association, which essentially said no problem!

In addition, WebMD touts the benefits of the technology, including that sonograms depict 4D imaging which vividly presents “the baby’s in utero facial expressions.”

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) tells prospective parents that ultrasound provides “a valuable opportunity to view and hear the heartbeat of the fetus, bond with the unborn baby, and capture images to share with family and friends.”

And the CDC denies any association between ultrasound and adverse maternal, fetal or neonatal outcomes.

SKEPTICISM, ANYONE?

And yet, Jim West, author of Ultrasound: Human Studies Indicate Extreme Risk, contends that the “subtle and not-so-subtle” biological effects of ultrasound “have set the human species on a tragic path” from which it may take generations to recover….a single exposure to ultrasound produces cellular and DNA damage similar to 250 chest X-rays—and damage [is] permanent and heritable for 10 generations and beyond.”

Ultrasound also uses non-ionizing radiation (used in cell phones, cell towers, etc.), which can cause cellular and DNA damage.

We also know that when there is a vested financial, professional, ideological or political interest in a certain result, scientific “experts” are quite susceptible to “shaping” their findings to fit the views of the people who are funding the study.

We’ve seen this with the tobacco industry and the sugar industry, and another perfect example, as written extensively about by Henry Payne in National Review––Global Warming–Follow the Money––are the climate change so-called scientists who always “shape” their results to their benefactors’ satisfaction.

Another reason for skepticism are the numerous examples of rosy promises that turned into disasters.

• Diethylstilbestrol (DES), given to women from 1940 to 1970 to prevent miscarriages until catastrophic health conditions happened to the daughters and sons of the women who took the drug.
• The Copper 7 intrauterine device (IUD), introduced in the mid-1970s, ultimately was found to cause pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancies, septic miscarriages, infection, et al.
• Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), introduced in the 1940s to help women with symptoms of menopause, was highly effective until a front-page article in The Wall St. Journal (in about 2008) cited studies linking this therapy to a rise in metastatic breast cancer, effectively destroying the world’s best-selling drug, Premarin––a high-estrogen medication.
• Vioxx, approved by the FDA in 1999 for pain relief and reducing inflammation of osteoarthritis, was pulled from the market in 2004 because of all the heart attacks and strokes it caused.

This is the very very very short list! But if you want more info on the drugs approved by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and then pulled off the market because of disastrous effects, Laima Jonusiene, M.D., spells it all out here.

THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM

There is a vast human tragedy––a true man-made disaster––taking place before our eyes.

For whatever reasons––follow the money?––the mountain of evidence that points to a causal relationship between prenatal ultrasound exams and an escalating pandemic of autism is being completely ignored.

Could it have anything to do with the huge investments doctors and scientists have made in ultrasound technology, which, according to Jennifer Margulis, “adds more than $1 billion to the cost of caring for pregnant women in America each year”?

Could it have anything to do with the revenue now pouring like an avalanche into the coffers of diagnostic and treatment centers and classrooms?

Could it have anything to do with modern journalism’s complete abandonment of hard-nosed reporting and life-saving exposés?

As Caroline Rodgers said, there is an elephant in the room when it comes to the subject of autism. And that elephant is the worldwide blitzkrieg of ultrasound exams on pregnant women–– exams that have bombarded the babies they’re carrying with the brain-warping sound waves and heat that will affect them every second of their autistic lives.

What’s wrong with this picture? America has 320-million people. If even half that number are parents or grandparents, when will all of them start to demand accountability from our health experts, as well as answers––and action!––from our feckless politicians?

“Thou shalt not kill.” Exodus 20:13

“…I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live:” —Deuteronomy 30:19

Remember good ole boy Johnny Edwards––actually North Carolina Democrat Senator John Edwards (1998-2012), VP candidate in 2004, and presidential candidate in 2008? Edwards is hard to forget because he burst upon the national stage as the golden-tongued lawyer who was famous for defending the rights of the unborn.

According to writer Douglas Johnson in National Review, “in 1985, John Edwards stood before a jury and channeled the words of an unborn baby girl. In his closing argument to the jury, Edwards conveyed what the unborn child, Jennifer Campbell, purportedly had been feeling hour-by-hour as her distress grew.

“She speaks to you through me,” Edwards told the jury. “And I have to tell you right now––I didn’t plan to talk about this––right now I feel her. I feel her presence. She’s inside me, and she’s talking to you.”

Edwards won that lawsuit and went on to file at least 20 similar lawsuits in the years following, achieving verdicts and settlements of more than $60 million for his clients.
Johnson writes that 13 years after the Jennifer Campbell lawsuit, Edwards was elected to the U.S. Senate from North Carolina, but “…somewhere along the line, John Edwards lost his ability to hear the voices of unborn victims.”

Yep…that’s what happens when the poohbahs of the Democrat Party dictate that anyone who wants “in” to their baby-killer cabal get rid of that empathic feel-for-the-baby stuff and embrace their kill-‘em-in-the-womb mantra. And Mr. Smoothie did just that––became deaf to the pain of in-utero infants and on-board with the baby killers.

MR. PRESCIENT

It is chillingly accurate to say of the former pretty-boy senator––not to mention his affair with Rielle Hunter and the baby girl they had while his wife was dying of breast cancer––that he was a morbid harbinger of his fellow Democrats’ devolution.

While abortion was always their Holy Grail––a virtual litmus test for admittance into the world of their perverse values––even Mr. Edwards and his flexible morality could not have imagined that in January of 2019, the entire Democrat New York State legislature would give a standing ovation to the passage of a law that sanctioned abortion up until the very moment of birth!

That’s right, a law that gave the right to a mother––exhausted by labor and in pain––to decide to snuff out the life of her fully-developed, perfectly intact full-term baby.

Did these Democrats recoil at the very idea of this kind of savagery? Did they weep or wring their hands at the barbarity of it all? Did they stage a protest against the infanticide that is forbidden in both Hebrew and Christian bibles?

No––they stood up and applauded!

Writer Wesley Smith, in Infanticide Makes a Comeback, recalls a recent Senate bill–– the “Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act”––that requires any baby who survives an abortion to be treated with “the same degree of professional skill and care as [would be given] to any other child born alive at the same gestational age.” And the bill also would have outlawed infanticide.

Guess who objected to these eminently reasonable and humane guidelines in February of this year? None other than 44 out of 47 Senate Democrats who blocked the Senate from voting on this bill, including presidential wannabes Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders, Kirsten Gillibrand, Amy Klobuchar, Cory Booker, and Elizabeth Warren!

WHAT THEY KNOW

Since Roe v Wade was passed in January 1973, over 61 million babies have been killed––legally.

To underscore the kind of vibrant lives of each of these babies––even at 12 weeks––and who these “pro-choice” candidates want to continue to snuff out, here is the clearest MRI of a pregnancy every recorded––only 44 seconds.

Every Democrat candidate for president has seen this or a similar film, and is also aware of the following irrefutable fact: Unborn babies feel! This is the conclusion of one of many studies––this one from Heidelberg psychotherapist Ludwig Janus, reported in February of this year.

“Babies in utero are happy…angry….fearful…and they like music,” Janus concluded. By eight weeks, the fetus has developed a sense of touch, by 13 weeks taste, at 17 weeks hearing, at 25 weeks sight, the miracles go on.

But none of this matters to people who think that the inconvenience of an unwanted pregnancy is worthy of infanticide.

And to think––one of these moral paragons wants your vote! Who will they target next––your disabled child, your elderly parent, your beloved pet?

THE PARTY OF DEATH

Clearly dazzled by the beauty of the NY State infanticide law, the governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam––a pediatric neurologist no less!––decided to go one better. Within days of the NY decision, he announced that, in his state, mothers whose babies survived abortion would and should have the right to kill their babies after they’re born.

“If a mother is in labor,” Gov. Northam said, “I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”

Disgusted yet? It gets worse.

IN LOVE WITH DEATH

If you had a measured conversation with a Democrat––in strict privacy and away from cell phones, microphones and cameras––and asked if he or she actually liked:

• High taxes
• Regulations that require months or years simply to add a room to one’s home
• A weakened military
• Billions spent on Sanctuary Cities to afford illegal aliens free housing, food, healthcare, education, on and on

All of them would tell you a resounding NO!

But if you followed up and asked, then how on earth could you vote Democrat? Reflexively, they would answer: ABORTION!

According to Sebastian Gorka, former Deputy Asst. to President Trump, in his recent article “Death and the Democrats”, “our existence as free men and women starts not with the right of association, or a free press, or freedom of conscience, or the right to keep and bear arms. Everything begins with the right to life. But in 2019––the Democrat Party “has quite literally become the political party of death.”

Gorka documents the grisly statistics: “The U.S. abortion industry that Planned Parenthood champions kills at least 600,000 babies in utero each year. For perspective, the 70,000 plus deaths last year from opioid overdoses is deemed to be a national crisis with federal and state programs created to staunch the flow of drugs into our nations and prevent needless loss of life.

“But more than eight times that number are killed as a matter of choice, not addiction or accident, and the Left celebrates it and wants more….the arch-eugenicist Margaret Sanger and Adolf Hitler would be most proud.”

RACIST DEMOCRATS

In fact, writer Patricia McCarthy reminds us that Sanger “founded Planned Parenthood to purposefully dispose of black babies ––and the Democrat Party has at last embraced her cause openly and without shame.”

Pro-life advocates remind us that abortions are not only immoral but are racist, in effect decimating the black population.

According to Right to Life of Michigan:

♦ More than 19 million black babies have been aborted since 1973
♦ Black women have a significantly higher abortion rate than whites and Hispanics.
♦ 36.0% of all abortions in the U.S. in 2014 were performed on black women, yet only about 13.3% of the total population is black

And Professor William D. Rubinstein of the University of Wales posits in his stunning article, “Legalized Abortion and the Triumph of Eugenics,” that “the total black population of the United States is about 40 million. Including the children and grandchildren of these 19 million who were never born, it is reasonable to assume that, without legalized abortions, America’s black population would be in the order of 70 million or even more.”

And fake news calls Republicans racist! Typical projection––accusing your competition of what you yourself are guilty of!

THE BANDWAGON EFFECT

The Democrat governors of New York and Virginia are not alone in their cravenly enthusiastic approval of infanticide. According to Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, Wisconsin Democrat Governor Tony Evers (who succeeded pro-life Republican Gov. Scott Walker) “is perfectly okay with…infanticide as long as it’s done neatly and under the watchful eye of a healthcare professional.”

“We have all sorts of issues to deal with in the state of Wisconsin,” Evers told reporters, “and to pass a bill [like born-alive] seems to be not a productive use of time.”

In other words, kill those pesky babies so we can get to the important work of raising your taxes!

Following suit, the state of Rhode Island, led by Governor Gina Raimondo––you guessed it, a Democrat!––just enacted legislation to make abortion legal up to the moment of birth, including partial birth abortions.

And we know that California’s Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom is hunky dory about abortions at any stage, but ever so sanguine about the lives of career murderers. He just abolished the state’s death penalty, effectively sparing the lives of over 700 savage killers on death row.

Not to omit that last May, the Illinois House passed a bill to repeal the ban on “partial-birth” abortions, and the Illinois Senate did them one better by expanding abortions through nine months and requiring insurance companies to provide coverage––and Democrat Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed it in June.

Democrat depravity marches on!

FIGHTING BACK

In May, the Alabama state legislature passed a bill banning abortion in the state––“except [when] necessary to prevent a serious health risk to the unborn child’s mother.”––the underlying goal of which is to challenge the legal precedent across the country: overturning the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling.

The state’s chief executive, Governor Kay Ivey––you guessed it again, a Republican––promptly signed the bill into law.

In addition, this year five states— Kentucky, Mississippi, Louisiana, Ohio and Georgia— enacted abortion bans at six weeks of gestation, while Missouri passed a law prohibiting terminations at eight weeks.

Betsy McCaughey, former Lt. Gov. of New York, public policy expert, and prolific writer, cites a number of young girls and women whose penalties for killing their newborn babies ranged from probation to life in prison.

“Where are the extreme pro-choice advocates when these pathetic women are led to prison in shackles?” McCaughey asks. “They are silent, even though late-term abortion is hardly different from what these convicted women did.”

“At least 12,000 late-term abortions take place yearly,” she continues, “but that’s not enough for Democrats. Abortion extremism is the new normal for Democratic politicians.”

Ms. McCaughey suggests several concrete strategies to deal with unwanted pregnancies.

♦ “To prevent the double tragedy of a new life taken and a woman’s life ruined, all 50 states have “safe haven” laws that allow newborns to be left at firehouses and hospitals.”
♦ School sex educators should “shorten the lessons on alternate sexual lifestyles and make time to warn young women that if they give birth, they don’t have to kill their baby and land in prison. There are people who can help.”
♦ Parents, if they see their daughter “wearing baggy clothes for several months, [should] call her out.”
♦ “For preventing legal infanticide, the best remedy is to vote against abortion extremists.”

Last month, the Trump Administration mandated that taxpayer-funded family planning clinics immediately stop referring women for abortions, maintain separate finances from facilities that provide abortions, and that both kinds of facilities not be under the same roof––rules that critics say deals a mortal blow to Planned Parenthood––which earns over 50 percent of its income from abortion.

THE LAST WORD

In a powerful article, “The Silent Scream and the Lies of Roe v Wade,” Alicia Cohen discusses Norma McCorvey––the Ms. Roe who brought the Roe v Wade suit to the Supreme Court.

“In her second book, Won By Love, Ms. McCorvey wrote about why she changed her stance on abortion:

“I was sitting in O.R.’s offices when I noticed a fetal development poster. The progression was so obvious, the eyes were so sweet. It hurt my heart, just looking at them. I ran outside and finally, it dawned on me. ‘Norma’, I said to myself, ‘They’re right’. I had worked with pregnant women for years. I had been through three pregnancies and deliveries myself. I should have known. Yet something in that poster made me lose my breath. I kept seeing the picture of that tiny, 10-week-old embryo, and I said to myself, that’s a baby! It’s as if blinders just fell off my eyes and I suddenly understood the truth—that’s a baby!

“I felt crushed under the truth of this realization. I had to face up to the awful reality. Abortion wasn’t about ‘products of conception’. It wasn’t about ‘missed periods’. It was about children being killed in their mother’s wombs. All those years I was wrong. Signing that affidavit, I was wrong. Working in an abortion clinic, I was wrong. No more of this first trimester, second trimester, third trimester stuff. Abortion—at any point—was wrong. It was so clear. Painfully clear.”

Throughout the ages, Jews have been the targets of genocidal forces both large and small, educated and ignorant, liberal and conservative, pagan and religious.

Other small sects and religions have never inspired the particular psychotic animus that Jews have because they never threatened the larger populace as Jews have with blazing green-eyed jealousy–the most powerful emotion of the human species. In fact, Proverb 14 states: “A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy makes the bones rot.”

After all, Jews were the first people in history to:

• Introduce monotheism to the world.
• Introduce the seven-day week––after the six days of creation and the seventh day on which God rested.
• Reject child sacrifice.
• Establish the world’s ultimate Code of Ethics––the Ten Commandments.
• Introduce a strict legal system of blind justice.
• Enshrine the value of lifelong education.
• Produce a Bible in which God pronounced the Jews His “chosen people.”
• Resurrect a 2,000 year old language, Hebrew, the language of Israel.
• Transform the deserts of Israel into flourishing orchards, farms, and gardens.
• Pioneer some of the greatest technological, scientific and medical advances in the modern world.
• Witness the fall of massive and powerful civilizations, nations, empires and regimes that tried to destroy the Jews such as the Egyptians, Babylonians, Romans, Philistines, Assyrians, Greeks, Crusaders, Nazis, et al, and––to this day––still try to destroy them, i.e., the Iranians, the people who call themselves Palestinians, Islamic radicals, and not to omit the crazed, worldwide anti-Semites whose preoccupation with Jews obsesses them night and day!

And yet the Jews of the world are still here, still flourishing wherever they live, and still driving anti-Semites to the brink of clinical insanity as they try to cope with their utter and abject failure to do what Hitler and all the others also failed to do––destroy the Jewish people.

Don’t these idiots know that will never happen? Only if they converted to Judaism would they appreciate that the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob insured repeatedly it would never happen. And it never has…and it never will!

Yet, the Jew haters plod ahead, as we can see by the new Sludge Sisters in the U.S. Congress––Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI)––and their sycophantic supporters, including the Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, who is so intimidated by these far-left racists that she has rewarded them with influential positions on House committees.

She even gave the vulgar Rep. Tlaib the distinct honor of becoming the first Muslim woman to preside over the House floor. This is exactly what panderers like Pelosi do when they fear being displaced by more powerful pimps.

As writer, lawyer and Rabbi Dov Fischer notes: “And now the winds of Jew-hate have come to America’s Democrat Party…rooted in the core of the party…Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer have counted the tea leaves and…determined that it is bad Democrat politics to call out the Jew haters and Nazis in their party for what they are: Jew haters and Nazis.”

YUCK…WHY SLUDGE?

In a recent article, I offered a definition of sludge: a muddy mixture of dirt, muck, dregs, contaminants, filth. We’re all familiar with this ugly slime, which often contains human and animal feces, toxic drugs, nuclear waste, et al. Big yuck!

In that article, I also stated my Vessel Theory of human behavior, which is simply that no matter how fancy or decorative a vessel appears to be, the real measure of its value is its contents. A beautiful crystal vase, for instance, might contain urine; a ceramic creation, vomit; while a plain vessel might pour out pure spring water.
Lesson: what’s inside is the real thing!

Perfect examples are Ms. Omar, Ms. Tlaib, and their sympatico Jew haters––Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Women’s March organizers Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour, and Rasha Mubarak, an Islamist anti-Semite of the Florida Democrat Party, who believes Israel has no right to exist––the list of repulsive racists is shockingly long.

And under the Sludge Sister umbrella are like-minded men like the longtime leader of anti-Israel groups James Zogby, as well as ole reliables like “Rev.” Jesse Jackson, “Rev.” Al Sharpton, “Rev.” Louis Farrakhan, too many Democrat members Congress to list here….again the list is long.

We are witnessing yet another grotesque mutation of anti-Semitism, propounded exclusively by Democrats––who get millions upon millions of dollars from Arab nations and who apparently imbibed their hatred with mother’s milk, who conveniently ignore the reality of or––for all we know––silently applaud jihadist children wrapped and strapped in suicide vests, who subscribe not to the U.S. Constitution but to Sharia Law––a law that subjugates women, endorses wife-beating, murders homosexuals, embraces honor killings, and widely practices female genital mutilation as described here in gruesome detail by professor/author Phyllis Chesler. And that’s the short list!

According to Mychal Massie, an ordained minister and founder and chairman of the think-tank The Racial Policy Center (RPC), Reps. Omar and Rashida “are rabid anti-Semite Muslim bigots and haters of America…uncouth, common, contumacious daughters of evil, who find America and Israel objectionable but somehow overlook the treatment of Islamic women and female children.

“There have been 34,925 terrorist attacks worldwide since the deadly American attacks on 9/11, Rev. Massie continues, “Where is their compassion for the people those of their religion have slaughtered?”

MEDIA WHORES

But why is this a subject in 21st century America? If our “culture” really believed that rank racists like Reps. Omar and Tlaib should be condemned and marginalized––the way singer Kate Smith’s performance of God Bless America during the seventh-inning stretch at Yankee Stadium was banned after almost 20 years because she supposedly sang a song with a racist lyric over 70 years ago––the Sludge Sisters would already have been relegated to eternal ignominy.

Writer Daniel Greenfield explains that “Americans don’t have an anti-Semitism problem. American politics has an anti-Semitism problem.”

Exactly! And our politics is fueled by leftwing media whores, all of whom take their marching orders from their globalist bosses––honchos who have been deeply complicit in the hate-Trump mania for the past three years and have purposefully––and malevolently––concealed the astounding accomplishments of the most pro-American and pro-Israel president in American history because of their vast international investments which are now threatened by an America-First president.

While they try to blame the president for the shootings of innocent Jews attending synagogue services, it is they themselves who scapegoat and vilify Jews for the good of the Party, which requires them to embrace the Sludge Sisters and their ilk. In fact, the Clarion Project credibly accuses “many mainstream media newspapers [of joining] The New York Times in shilling for the Muslim Brotherhood.

As Greenfield notes: “American politics….is full of politically active people who will defend anti-Semites against charges of anti-Semitism because they agree with them on the rest of their political agenda.”

Translation: Democrats are guilty of collusion––real collusion––with Jew-hating and Israel-loathing radicals because those radicals support their fetishes for wide-open borders, parasitical Sanctuary Cities, strangulating regulations, a weak military, the hoax of climate change, and infanticide! Lovely.

ROT

Not that proof is needed beyond watching the Sludge Sisters in action, but writer David Catron describes the deeply vile nature of Rep. Tlaib at a C-SPAN presentation this month, where she told the audience that “There’s always kind of a calming feeling, I tell folks, when I think of the Holocaust, and the tragedy of the Holocaust, and the fact that it was my ancestors––Palestinians––who lost their land and some lost their lives, their livelihood, their human dignity, their existence in many ways, have been wiped out, and some people’s passports.”

According to Catron, “Every semi-coherent syllable of Tlaib’s word salad is pure fiction,” a fact expanded upon by Abe Greenwald in Commentary Magazine.

“Disease is reversible—rot isn’t,” Greenwald writes. Reps. Omar and Tlaib brought the disease of anti-Semitism into the upper echelons of the Democratic Party when they were elected in November. The party could have fought the disease. It chose instead to nurture it. And that’s when the irreversible rot set in.”

Greenwald also corrects Tlaib’s egregious historical-revisionist fantasy about her “ancestors.” At the time, he says, “Haj Amin al-Husseini, the grand mufti of Jerusalem, was a supporter and ally of Hitler. When the two met, al-Husseini told Hitler that they shared the same enemies: `the English, the Jews, and the Communists.’ The two went on to scheme about how best to set upon and destroy the Jews of the Middle East. What’s more, the Arabs regularly massacred Jews in Mandatory Palestine.”

“Lies,” Greenwald explains, “are the lifeblood of anti-Semitism…it depends on lies because its very motive is to hide the truth of one’s own failings and lay blame on the Jews.”

Writer Ari Lieberman adds that “Tlaib’s ancestors, the so-called champions of safe haven for the Jews, rejected outright the 1947 United Nations Partition Plan, sparking a conflict which resulted in their defeat. Far from benevolence, the Palestinians exhibited hate, xenophobia and anti-Semitism in the extreme, and likely would have perpetrated mass ethnic cleansing and a second Holocaust had they won the war. The anti-Semitic attitudes exhibited by the Palestinians in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s are no different than they are today.”

No surprise. One of the arch tenets of Islam is taqiyyah, which approves of and indeed encourages Muslims to lie in the service of their larger goal––to establish a worldwide caliphate under Sharia Law. As Americans have already witnessed, the Muslim invasion of Europe and the Scandinavian countries has already overtaken those countries…and now their target is America the Beautiful.

THE REAL PROBLEM(S)

As Dov Fischer stated: “It is not just about Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. They are two blips of time, two mistakes that will be ignored by future American historians.” Rather, the problem for all decent non-racist people (the majority of Americans, I believe) is multifold.

It is about the Democrat House that recently defeated a resolution to condemn the Boycott-Divest-and-Sanction (BDS) movement designed to strangle Israel economically?

It is about the significant number of Jewish Democrats––many in positions of great power in the U.S. Congress (like Senate Minority Leader Schumer)––who have remained thunderously mute over these last many months as the anti-Semites in their Party spewed hatred of Jews and Israel on a daily basis.

These are the cowardly Jewish DEMOCRATS in the 116th Senate and House who have said NOTHING as the new flock of anti-Semites have, in essence, vowed to destroy them and all of world Jewry and Israel itself! The two Republicans––David Kutsoff (R-TN) and Lee Zeldin (R-NY) are the only exceptions of this list to speak out forcefully against the Sludges out there and anti-Semitism in general.

Never has it been more true that SILENCE IS CONSENT! And this is not only consent, not only approval and reward, this is collaboration!

Writer Karen McQuillan knows this species well. In her stunning article, “Democrats Rally Around Their Anti-Semites, she writes: The Democrats’ embrace of multicultural anti-Semites such as Tlaib, Omar, and Ocasio-Cortez poses a danger to our country—both morally and politically. No nation has ever embraced anti-Semitism and remained a decent country for its own citizens. This is a path we do not want to go down, because down it leads.”

And most significantly, to my mind, it is about the large number of Jewish Americans:

♦ Who continue to cling stubbornly and blindly to the Democrat Party, which voted twice for Barack Obama whose entire regime was stacked with career anti-Semites and which made a deal with Iran to help that terrorist state obtain the nuclear weapons capable of wiping Israel off the map, as the Mullahs promise to do this very day,
♦ Who inherited from their parents and grandparents a Democrat gene going back to FDR, who sadistically turned away the straggling remnants of the Holocaust (including 20,000 Jewish children) from coming to America by ship,
♦ And who have also decided that there is nothing quite as important in life as abortion on-demand….and now infanticide, thanks to the New York State legislature (watch them applaud).

And most relevant, the above-mentioned elected Democrat legislators have made a deal with the devil because all of them are about to be exposed and possibly jailed as complicit in the greatest scandal in American history––the bogus collusion-and-obstruction hoax that they hoped would deflect attention from the vast corruption and criminality of the Obama regime for which they shilled.

Yoo Hoo, you Democrat Jews out there––the 24 candidates running for your Party’s presidency are not your friends…they loathe you! They support every anti-Semitic statement and anti-Israel initiative coming down the line.

It is well past the time for you to vote for the candidate who loves America, who is a passionate stalwart for Israel (in deeds, not words), and who has made life better for all the constituencies––black, Hispanic, women, youth––you claim to represent.

And very far past time that you manned up and womanned up and spoke out in opposition to the Sludge Sisters and their male counterparts in the Democrat Party!

Just a few months ago, in an article entitled “Still the Smartest Guy in the Room,” I wrote the following about President Trump:

Well, whaddaya know? In the midterm elections of November 6, 2018, the American people rewarded the president—for only the third time in almost a hundred years—with a net gain of three and possibly four Senate seats, lost half the House seats that his predecessor lost, and left the radical leftwing Democrats not rejoicing at their meager gains, but still chomping at the bit to bring down the president who has effectively destroyed everything they believed in, worked for, and thought they achieved over the past 75 years.

Yes, President Trump posed a mortal threat to the Left’s very raison d’être––a globalist one-world order controlled by them! And so way back in 2015, when he announced his intention to run for the presidency, the “connected” guys of the D.C. swamp ––to use the vocabulary of the mob––decided to pool their formidable resources to “clip” the billionaire business mogul, if not physically (although I wouldn’t put it that past them), then by proving that their manufactured fiction of candidate Trump’s collusion with Russia to win the presidency was, in fact, true and therefore impeachable.

In that article, I listed all the fanatical Detectives Javert––the top dogs at our top-secret intelligence agencies (and many of their wives who also played central roles)––and elaborated on their impressive credentials, privileged educations, vast experience, and, oh, their appointments to high office by the former occupant of the Oval Office, Barack Obama.

Don’t forget––the fish always stinks from the head!

THE WITCH HUNT

Special Counsel Robert Mueller took his time––more than two years––as he hired almost two-dozen partisan Democrats (who contributed to the Obama and Clinton campaigns) to join his “objective” truth-finding effort. Here is a breakdown of the invasive colonoscopy he performed on the President of the United States.

• Over 675-days,
• Over $30 million dollars,
• Over 2,800 subpoenas,
• Over 500 warrants,
• Over 500 witness interviews, including those whose lives were ruined for offenses unrelated to President Trump,
• Over a million documents submitted by the White House.

The net result, as we all now know––the president committed no collusion and no obstruction, although the Regressives who continue to pursue some bogus crime––I refer to the obsessed Representatives Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and Adam Schiff (D-CA), chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and a few others, who, as they say, can’t let go!

But why? Most of these people once figuratively kissed the ring of businessman Donald Trump when he was a Democrat and they groveled for the campaign cash he generously doled out and lusted for an invitation to play golf with the mega-mogul or to dine in the company of his exquisite wife at the palatial Mar-a-Lago resort or at numerous other residences, including his Manhattan penthouse in Trump Tower.

Why then the wild-eyed, ferocious animosity when he announced for the presidency and––to their horror––was elected America’s 45^th president?

IT’S NOT ABOUT THE BENJAMINS, BABY!

In most cases in politics, when you peel back the layers of the onion, it’s all about the money. But not in this case.

And it’s not about the bogus excuse that Hillary lost the election. Most people can’t stand the woman. While some women would have reflexively voted for any person with the right plumbing, who can take feminists seriously anymore, now that they’ve embraced infanticide as a “human right”? In truth, most people cringed throughout Hillary’s coughing-fit, seizure-plagued, issue-impoverished campaign and were––and are––happy, finally, to have her off the national stage.

And it wasn’t candidate Trump’s “treatment” of women or his locker-room talk, when Americans had already endured eight years of Bill Clinton spitting in Hillary’s face every day with his serial philandering or, without his Secret Service detail flying 26 times on the “Lolita Express” to Jeffrey Epstein’s private island.

And it wasn’t the right-of-center platform candidate Trump was running on because Democrats had already raised to an art form the softening up and watering down of other Republican presidents’ wish lists. And they’d already succeeded in inflicting Americans with socialized medicine (Obamacare) and socialized education (Common Core), with degrading our military, contaminating the public imagination with the hoax of global warming, and actualizing the Cloward-Piven strategy to overload the welfare system by establishing Sanctuary Cities with the  goal of segueing from socialism to their preferred system of government, communism.

And it wasn’t about the power of the media to shape/influence/determine public opinion. As I wrote in a former article, “Media Whores,” people who have the conceit to call themselves journalists are really employees who take direct orders from their employers. Today, only six media empires rule radio, TV and print publications––five of them run by globalists and only one by soon-to-retire conservative Rupert Murdoch (Fox TV, the NY Post, the Wall St. Journal, et al)––and now by his liberal sons, Lachlan and James…hence the unfortunate leftist infiltration of Fox.

And it wasn’t even my original theory, which was that Mr. Trump threatened to disrupt the globalists’ One World Order. The powers-that-be in the D.C. swamp are too arrogant and narcissistic to entertain the notion that a single individual could upset their decades-old, carefully constructed apple cart.

None of these things inspired the predatory animus of the Democrats that we’ve witnessed for the past three years. Instead, as candidate Trump’s campaign proceeded and he summarily withered “Low-energy Jeb,” “Lyin’ Ted,” “Little Marco,” “Crooked Hillary,” “Crazy Bernie,” “Pocahantus,” on and on, a cold chill began to rise in the ranks of the left: Nothing can touch this guy!

They knew that the brash billionaire certainly couldn’t be bought by lobbyists or Arabs––Qatar is but one dramatic and damning example––like so many of our legislators have been.

They saw that even before the election he could single-handedly destroy a hot career like Megyn Kelly’s.

And nothing they threw at him succeeded in denting the natural ebullience and epic energy that infuriates them to this day.

THE COUP DE GRÁCE

And then it happened! The Kiss of Death, so to speak––the nine words that locked the Regressives in combat with candidate and then President Trump forever.

It was in early October of 2016 when Mr. Trump was engaged in one of the campaign’s many debates that he said the following: “If I were president, Hillary would be in jail.”

That was it––simple as that!

Now you know what this three-year safari for Big Game has been all about! It’s been about all the deeply corrupt––indeed criminal––swamp creatures creating so much chaos, so many dirt roads, so many bogus accusations and innuendos and tabloid headlines in order to keep the real collusion experts and the real obstructers of justice out of the spotlight, out of the courthouse, and out of Leavenworth!

There are so many crimes––or potential crimes––involved in what the Obama White House orchestrated through his Justice Department and FBI (among other departments) that it’s impossible to list them all.

In a stunning analysis in the World Tribune entitled Justice: Suddenly, the hunters have become the hunted, historian Victor Davis Hanson is quoted as saying that those “who cried the loudest about leaking, collusion, lying, and obstruction are themselves soon very likely to be accused of just those crimes.” Among them, Hanson lists the following:

Clockwise from top left: James Clapper, John Brennan, Andrew McCabe and James Comey

• James Comey: The former FBI director falsely testified that the Steele dossier was not the main basis for obtaining FISA court warrants. On at least 245 occasions, Comey swore under oath that he either did not know, or could not remember, when asked direct questions about his conduct at the FBI. He likely lied when he testified that he did not conclude his assessment of the Clinton illegal email use before he had even interviewed Clinton, an assertion contradicted by his own written report. I guess his credo and modus operandi are reflected in the subtitle of his recent autobiography A Higher Loyalty: “Truth, Lies, and Leadership.”
• Andrew McCabe: The former FBI deputy director currently is under criminal referral for lying to federal investigators about leaking to the media. He and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein each have accused each other of not telling the whole truth about their shared caper of trying to force President Trump out of office by invoking the 25th Amendment.
• James Clapper: The former director of national intelligence has admitted to lying under oath to Congress – and since lied about his earlier admission of that lying. His recent sworn congressional testimony of not having leaked information about the Steele dossier to the media is again likely to be untrue, given that Clapper had admitted to speaking to CNN’s Jake Tapper about the dossier’s contents. CNN, remember, would in turn go on to hire the mendacious Clapper as an analyst. And once on air, Clapper would insist that Trump was both a Russian asset and thus guilty of collusion crimes greater than those of Watergate. Lies. All lies.
• John Brennan: The former CIA director has admitted to lying under oath to Congress on two occasions. He may well face further legal exposure. When he lost his security clearance, he repeatedly lied that Trump was guilty of collusion, however that non-crime is defined. And as the Mueller probe wound down, Brennan with pseudo-authority and trumped-up hints of phony access to secret intelligence sources deceitfully assured the nation that Trump within days would face indictment – perhaps along with his family members.
• Huma Abedinand Cheryl Mills: The Hillary Clinton aides likely also lied to FBI investigators when they claimed they had no knowledge while working at the State Department that their boss was using an illegal private email server. In fact, they had read her communications on it and actually inquired about its efficacy.
• Samantha Power: The former UN ambassador in her last year in office requested on more than 260 occasions to unmask names of Americans monitored by the government. Yet Power later claimed that most of these requests were not made by her. And yet she either does not know or does not cite who exactly used her name to make such requests during the election cycle. In any case, no one has come forward to admit to the improper use of Power’s name to request the hundreds of unmaskings.
• Susan Rice: The former Obama national security adviser could have made a number of unmasking requests in Power’s name, although she initially denied making any requests in her own name – a lie she immediately amended. Rice, remember, repeatedly lied on national television about the cause and origins of the Benghazi attack, denied there were cash payments for hostages in the Iran deal, misled about the conduct of Beau Bergdahl, and prevaricated over the existence and destruction of weapons of mass destruction in Syria.
• Bruce Ohr, the former deputy attorney general did not tell the truth on a federal written disclosure required by law when he omitted the key fact that his wife Nellie worked on Christopher Steele’s Fusion GPS dossier. Ohr’s testimony that he completely briefed key FBI officials on the dossier in July or August 2016 is not compatible to what former FBI attorney Lisa Page has testified to concerning the dates of her own knowledge of the Steele material.

Hanson has also written at length about the bogus Obstruction of Justice accusation, the illegally obtained FISA warrants, the phony Steele dossier paid for by Hillary Clinton, the fishy “coincidental” meeting of Bill Clinton with AG Loretta Lynch on a Phoenix airport tarmac, and the wrongness of Andrew McCabe, Ron Rosenstein, and so many others ever having been in charge of investigations that smacked of conflicts of interest and other malfeasances––all worthy of criminal investigation and, from what I’ve read, indictment!

And that is not to omit the destruction of 33,000 e-mails by Ms. Hillary, and the much more egregious and criminal issue of Benghazi!

MEANWHILE, BACK IN REALITY….

President Trump has been rightfully credited with 289 amazing accomplishments,  including:

• A booming economy.
• Blacks, Hispanics, Asian-Americans, women and youth are enjoying higher employment than any time in the past 50 years!
• ISIS is in its death throes.
• Members of NATO are finally paying their fair share.
• Our military is flourishing.
• Investments are flowing back to the U.S.
• Deregulation has helped our economy explode!
• Healthcare, combatting opioid abuse, and infrastructure programs are on the front burner.
• Confirmation of more S. Circuit Court judges, two dozen U. S. Circuit Court judges, and two Supreme Court judges confirmed.
• On and on and on and on.

For President Trump’s deranged enemies, I suggest hiring good attorneys and hoping for decent obituaries in the now-tabloid NY Times.

For the rest of us, get out the popcorn!

“…the Democrats have become an anti-Israel party. They’ve become an anti-Jewish party.” —President Donald J. Trump

“…the chickens of the Democratic Party are coming home to roost…maybe then they will also realize that anti-Semitism, like most cancers, is fatal unless it’s removed.” —Michael Goodwin, NY Post

Most people thought antisemitism had been relegated to the trash bin of history after Hitler and millions of his willing German-Polish-Austrian-French-Swiss-Belgium executioners––with savage premeditation––murdered six-million Jews in the 1930s and ‘40s, and the world––significantly after the fact––seemed to wake up to the psychotic, irrational, obsessed nature of Jew hatred.

But today, less than 75 after the founding of Israel, Jew hatred has emerged from the cesspool in which it festers. The maniacal obsession with Jews is on the rise, not only throughout the Middle East and Europe––France, England, Germany, Ireland, Scandinavia, Belgium, et al––but it is also contaminating America the Beautiful!

Why? One reason is that Jew hatred didn’t really disappear after World War II. It simply went underground because people were chastened enough by the sight of crematoria-charred remains and cadaverous survivors to hold their tongues.

But Jews haters never rest. While they abstained from vicious stereotypes and outright physical attacks until they could make their dreamed-about comeback, they were driven stark raving mad when Israel was declared a state in 1948 and the straggling remnants of the Holocaust joined their brethren in the land God promised to the Jews in the Bible thousands of years ago.

Even then, the Jew haters held back, certain that on the day of Israel’s founding, the five massive Arab nations that attacked her on land and by air––Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, and Egypt––would annihilate the fledgling state.

Instead, in its War of Independence, tiny Israel––outnumbered by millions in dollars and manpower––defeated her aggressors, increased the size of her borders and captured much of her attackers’ land.

Many wars ensued: the Sinai-Suez War in 1956, the Six-Day War in 1967, the War of Attrition in 1967-1970, and the Yom Kippur War in 1973––with Arabs attacking Israel and Israel either holding its own or winning (in spite of catastrophic losses). And after all those wars, the Arabs engaged in not one but two protracted armed-uprising intifadas––in 1987 and 2000––neither of which stopped Israel from flourishing. In fact, every encounter with Israel drove both Arabs and liberals everywhere into paroxysms of rage.

Arabs because of the humiliation…how could 300-million Arabs go down to defeat to five or six million Jews? And liberals because they only identify with losers––er, victims. It is irrelevant to this leftwing species that Arab nations include in their mission statements that their goal is to kill all Jews and wipe Israel off the map! If Israel wins a war, they are the bad guys. Such is the liberal mentality––to this day!

WHY THIS RESURGENCE?

The religious-political-supremacist system of Islam was invented in the seventh century and has since led a relentless drive to literally take over the world, establish a caliphate ruled by sharia law––the law that mandates cutting off the clitorises of five-year-old girls, throwing homosexuals off roofs to their deaths, engaging in “honor killings” of teenage girls whose behavior they disapprove of, and killing all Jews. That sharia law.

It is no surprise that this megalomaniacal goal captured the imagination of leftists worldwide, including in our country, who share Islam’s goals, particularly of destroying America––the “Big Satan,” and Israel––the “Little Satan.”

While Islam’s biggest competition is Christianity and the billions of people who love Jesus, their chief target has always been the Jews of the world (who today number 14 million) who they’ve despised for thousands of years––since Abraham’s second-born son Isaac prevailed over his first-born Ishmael. Believe me, that’s it in a nutshell.

In order to gain a foothold in America, many Arab countries have donated multimillions of dollars to colleges and universities across the U.S. for decades, giving them de facto license to endow chairs and dictate curricula, most of which militate against Israel and paint a rosy picture of the 22 Arab nations––all of them dictatorships––that surround the tiny Jewish state.

In addition, the lobbyist groups of what Pres. George W. Bush called “the religion of peace,” have been very effective in insinuating themselves into our body politic, even reaching the highest reaches of power––in the State Department, Homeland Security, the IRS, all intelligence agencies, and even the Oval Office––especially during the Barack Obama regime. Among the many that operate openly is The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)––an offshoot of the terrorist-founded Muslim Brotherhood––which is a notorious neo-Jihadi group in the United States that pretends to be a civil rights organization.

Islamists have also poured multimillions into lobbyists and public-relations efforts to convince the world that the religion of peace is not behind the worldwide pandemic of terrorism that, as only one example, is happening today on a horrifyingly massive scale in Germany, as documented in sordid and graphic detail by Soeren Kern, a Senior Fellow at the New York-based Gatestone Institute. Equal data exist in England, Sweden, Belgium, et al.

Any surprise, then, that the florid metastasis of anti-Semitism has come to our shores?

THE SLUDGE SISTERS

I’ve already written about the latest Jew haters to contaminate the public discourse––the newly-elected U.S. Representatives Ihlan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and their ardent admirer Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY)––all of them young, attractive, articulate, and seasoned in the kind of rabble-rousing that comes with training (or observing) the community-organizing tactics of Karl Marx, Saul Alinsky, and Barack Obama.

What is striking is their commonness, their utter lack of originality. When I listen to their compulsive antisemitism––kind of like watching the regurgitation of untreated acid reflux––there is not one word that hasn’t been leveled toward the Jews for the past 5,000 years. C’mon, girls, besides your jealous rants, is there even one original grievance in your arsenal?

What comes to mind whenever I see or read about this echo-chamber triumvirate is the Vessel Theory I developed a couple of decades ago and wrote about in my book, All About Love. Basically, it says that whatever comes out of a person is what’s inside of a person. But I used vessels––specifically vases––to demonstrate that point.

Let’s say you come into a room and see 10 vases on a shelf. One is very ornate and beautiful, another plain and unadorned, yet another made of clay, the fourth is ceramic with elaborate artwork, a fifth is crystal, the sixth is made of Chinaware, and the seventh of woven reeds, et al.

But when the plainest vase was turned on its side, pure spring water poured forth, and when the most beautiful vase was emptied, pure sludge! You’re familiar with sludge––that muddy mixture of dirt, muck, slime, dregs, contaminants, filth.

While writer David Catron of The American Spectator calls this triumvirate a “fractious coven” and “the weird sisters,” I think they can more accurately be labeled The Sludge Sisters!

• Omar: Israel has “hypnotized the world” and I pray that “Allah awaken the people and help them see [its] evil doings …” Also that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) buys off Congressmen/women to support Israel, among almost daily regurgitations of Jew-and-Israel-hating memes. Sludge!
• Tlaib: those who supported the bill against the Boycott-Divest-Sanction (BDS) movement––which seeks to strangle Israel economically––were torn by their “dual loyalty” to both Israel and the United States, and the bill’s supporters “forgot what country they represent.” And she supportsa global economic, academic and cultural boycott against Israel. Sludge!
• Ocasio-Cortez: supports BDS and falsely and maliciously condemnedIsrael last July for committing a “massacre” against Gaza “protesters” when in fact the Arabs (who call themselves “Palestinians”) were violent rioters trying to infiltrate Israel to murder Jews. And who was standing right behind her at her election victory party? A longtime vicious hater of both Jews and blacks. Sludge!

POWER POLITICS AT WORK

Meanwhile, when a brouhaha arose demanding that Democrats condemn the rank racism of their new members, particularly Rep. Omar, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi couldn’t quite make that happen.

According to journalist and author Kurt Schlicter: “‘She could only get her caucus to agree to condemning all prejudice, sort of, including the tsunami of prejudice against Pacific Islanders that we all see around us so much in our daily lives. Of course, the Democrats never named the actual bigot because the Democrat base is affirmatively pro-bigotry. They hate Jews, Christians, white people, dissident non-white people, men, women who like men, and people who blaspheme against the creepy climate cult, among others.”

To add insult to injury, another Sludge Sister, Linda Sarsour, a Women’s March co-chair who believes Israel doesn’t have a right to exist, denounced Speaker Pelosi as a “typical white feminist” who does the dirty work of powerful white men, and castigated her for pushing the anti-Semitism resolution.

Not so fast, girls! All of a sudden, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez is being investigated by the Federal Election Commission (FEC) for running a gigantic slush fund with her campaign’s Chief of Staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, for funneling more than $1 million in political donations into two of his own private companies.

Questions are being asked about Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s failure to disclose her financial ties to George Soros––to the tune of thousands of dollars that were not reported on financial disclosure forms––as required by the House ethics committee. This while she announces to the world her upcoming plan to introduce articles of impeachment toward President Trump next week!

Rep. Omar has Laurie Cardoza-Moore, an Evangelical leader and president of Proclaiming Justice to the Nations (PJTN) calling on the US Justice Department “to launch a full and thorough investigation” into the congresswoman’s “possible connections to the Muslim Brotherhood” and “fundraising for two Muslim Brotherhood charities that seek to destroy America.”

Now really, do these freshman congresswomen––does anyone––believe that Ms. Pelosi is not behind these “coincidental” investigations? And further, that it is a coincidence that she proclaimed “NO IMPEACHMENT” for President Trump?

And did they think they had defeated the opposition when the weakling Democrats in the House and Senate caved to their racism by offering a watered-down, toothless resolution?

If so, they should all go back to kindergarten!

FIGHTING BACK

As journalist and author Bruce Bawer spells out, it may be time for Jewish Americans and the Democrat Party to part ways.

Just as Candace Owens has spearheaded the “Blexit” movement, Bawer writes, inspiring “black Americans to recognize the damage done to them by the Great Society and its aftermath [and to] leave the Democratic plantation, so has Brandon Straka led other gays to see that they’ve been “served a bill of goods by the mainstream media and Democratic Party and is now heading his WalkAway campaign.” But what about the Jews?

Well, whaddaya know? Here comes Elizabeth Pipko, a 23-year-old Jewish figure skater-turned-model who, in an effort to aid a “mass Jewish exodus from the Democratic party,” has popularized the “JEXODUS” movement” initiated by Republican activist Jeff Ballabon.

“Right now,” Ms. Pipko said, “as a Jewish person, you cannot support the Democratic Party and support the Jewish people at the same time.” The first JEXODUS rallies are scheduled for April in New York and Florida.

But even before those marches, the National Conference of Jewish Affairs, headed by Rabbi Aryeh Spero and his wife Beth Gilinsky, have organized a “sit-in” at the office of Speaker Pelosi at her office in Washington, D.C. at 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, March 14^th.

If you miss the rally, call Rep. Pelosi’s office at 202-225-4965. Each phone call represents 50 votes.

The message is simple:

♦  Rep. Ilhan Omar’s history of anti-Semitic slurs and comments demonizing Israel make her unfit to serve on the Foreign Relations Committee.

♦  Moreover, she is unfit to represent the interests of the United States on the Foreign Relations Committee.

It is wise to hearken to the words of Abraham Miller, professor emeritus of political science at the University of Cincinnati and a distinguished fellow at the Haym Salomon Center:

“While parallels to Nazi Germany are often overdrawn on one hand and too conveniently dismissed on the other, the recent decision by the Democrat Party to stand with Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and refuse to issue a resolution condemning anti-Semitism is very much like the Nazi removal of the protection of Jews in the legal system.

“The Democrat Party,” Prof. Miller continues, “has institutionalized anti-Semitism and it has once-again, as it did during the Holocaust, abandoned the Jews.”

Heads-up, sane Jews! Leave the Democrat Party of Hate today, before you too find yourselves in the 21^st century’s version of the cattle cars of the Holocaust!

When individuals kill themselves, we look for answers in their DNA, their environments, their personal reactions to feelings of impotent rage, rejection, disappointment, heartbreak.

But how to explain group suicide? Wikipedia lists numerous cases, starting in 206 B.C., and these relatively recent cases:

●    In 1943, in the final phase of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, many of the Jewish fighters besieged in the “bunker” at Miła 18 committed mass suicide by ingesting poison rather than surrender to the Nazis.
●    In 1945, about 1,000 residents of Demmin, Germany, committed mass suicide after the Red Army had sacked the town.
●    In 1978, 918 Americans––including 276 children––died of cyanide poisoning in the Peoples Temple led by Jim Jones in Jonestown, Guyana.
●    In 1997, 39 followers of the Heaven’s Gate cult in California died in a mass suicide, believing they would travel on a spaceship that followed comet Hale–Bopp.

Clearly, some groups took their lives en masse for ideological reasons, while others––particularly vulnerable people in dire need of a “leader”––simply followed orders.

In all the mass suicides in recorded history, dozens, hundreds, and up to one-thousand people took their own lives.

But today, when looking at suicidal Jews, the numbers could be in the millions!
