Black activists at the California assembly threatened a "direct impact" on Vice President Harris' presidential campaign after state Democratic lawmakers held off on two bills that would have greenlighted slavery reparations. Last week, the California legislature approved proposals allowing for the return of land or compensation to families whose property was unjustly seized by the government, and issuing a formal apology for laws and practices that have harmed Black people. But none of those bills would provide widespread direct payments to African Americans.

The first black female police superintendent of Toronto, Canada was demoted after she reportedly admitted to helping several black police officers cheat in order to get promoted. According to The Toronto Star, Supt. Stacy Clarke leaked confidential exam questions to six black police officers. (snip) The Star reported that in May, Clarke said in a hearing that she helped the cops cheat to counteract a âracial biasâ meant to hold black police officers back (snip) âI felt at the time that (the six officers) did not have a fair chance in this process and my own history and experience of racial inequity compounded this feeling,â Clarke wrote

The six Israeli hostages whose bodies were found in a Hamas tunnel underneath Gaza Saturday had been shot in the head in the last 48 hours, according to autopsy reports Sunday.
As Breitbart News reported, the Israeli military identified the hostages Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, American-Israeli Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Alexander Lobanov, Almog Sarusi, and Master Sergeant Ori Danino. Hamas murdered the hostages in the belief that Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers were closing in. According to IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, the soldiers did not know the hostagesâ exact location but had rescued one hostage nearby last week and were fighting above ground at the location.

As Israelâs justified war against Hamas raged, the terror group still held over 100 hostages. Once again, a ceasefire agreement was rejected by Hamas last week. Tragically, Israeli forces made a gruesome discovery this weekend in Gaza: the bodies of six hostages were recovered, including one American (via Axios): Israel Defense Forces recovered the bodies of six Israeli hostages held by Hamas in Gaza, including one American citizen, Israeli officials said.
Why it matters: The recovery operation took place amid continued efforts to reach a hostage-release and ceasefire in Gaza deal.

Prince Harry is reported to have told friends that he feels like a "spare" in the United States. Pals of the Duke of Sussex have reportedly said he feels that he has lost his way and even feels overshadowed by his wife, Meghan Markle, in public. [Snip] They added: "The Colombia trip also really highlighted how Meghan is comfortable stepping into the spotlight, while Harry cuts a very sulky, unhappy figure in the background." The unnamed source claimed Harry wants to find a way back to royal life in Britain and is seeking the advice of old pals and associates.

The more I read about or hear about Elon Musk, the more I like the guy. Oh, I don't agree with him on every issue, but then, if two people agree on everything, one of them isn't necessary. But I like his tenaciousness, I like his grit, and I admire his First Amendment absolutism.
So, when Clinton creature Robert Reich, the former Labor Secretary (because of course he was), opines that Musk should be threatened with arrest by regulators for "disseminating lies and hate" - meaning anything Robert Reich doesn't agree with - well, I'm inclined to tell Robert Reich precisely where he can place that idea,

Russia sees U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris as a more predictable opponent than Republican Donald Trump, though in any case there is no prospect of an improvement in relations with Washington, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
In an interview with Pavel Zarubin, a TV reporter with favoured access to the Kremlin, Peskov also appeared dismissive of Trump's boast that he could end the Ukraine war within 24 hours if U.S. voters returned him to the White House. Before Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from November's election and threw his support behind Harris, Russian President Vladimir Putin had said that Moscow preferred Biden over Trump, describing

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu swore to eliminate Hamas leadership and destroy the terrorist organization in an address shortly after the Israel Defense Forces recovered the bodies of six hostages killed in the tunnels under Rafah, Gaza.
âThis is a difficult day for us,â Netanyahu began. âTogether with all citizens of Israel, I was outraged to the depths of my soul by the horrific, cold-blooded murder of six of our hostages: Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Alexander Lobanov, Almog Sarusi, and Master Sergeant Ori Danino. May God avenge them.â

When George H.W. Bush was ducking debates during the fall of 1992, Bill Clintonâs campaign sent trolling 7-foot chicken mascots to every Bush campaign event. The humorous jab was brilliantly effective.
A chastened Bush relented, agreeing to three debates. But by that time, âChicken George,â as it came to be known, had done its damage. Clinton emerged as the alpha-male to Bushâs beta and Clinton never looked back as he rode the wave into the White House.
Kamala Harris is potentially setting up the same trap.

WASHINGTON - Several U.S. Democratic lawmakers renewed calls for an Israeli-Hamas ceasefire on Sunday in reaction to the killing of six hostages in a tunnel under Gaza, while Republicans criticized President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for not giving stronger support to Israel. Israel recovered the bodies of six hostages from a tunnel in Gaza where they were apparently killed shortly before its troops reached them, triggering Israeli protests on Sunday and planned strikes over the failure to save them. The military said the bodies of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, who is an Israeli-American citizen, Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Alexander Lobanov
