Why is Israel alone forced to justify its existence and questioned when it stands up to those who would annihilate it? Why was a worldwide campaign of hatred that reeked of anti-Semitism unleashed on Israel when it responded to the October 7, 2023, attack, while there was no criticism of Hamas? Why has the U.N. censured the Jewish state more times than any other nation, even China, North Korea, and Cuba combined?
The answer runs deeper than geopolitics, says conservative commentator and legal scholar Josh Hammer in his debut book Israel and Civilization: The Fate of

Let's face it.
Kamala Harris was a lousy presidential candidate. Candidates often have flaws. Some are weak on policy. Some are weak on performance. Some are weak on presentation. But she was bad on all of those things.
There's a new book out that's gives us a great example of the problems with Harris.
According to an excerpt, Harris' campaign insisted that she could only be seated in chairs that "met certain specifications":
An excerpt from “FIGHT: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House,” by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, published in The Hill, detailed the strict seating arrangements.

A court ordered Starbucks on Friday to pay $50 million in damages to a delivery driver who was severely burned by spilled beverages, CNN reported.
The jury in California sided with Michael Garcia, who was picking up drinks in a drive-through in Los Angeles when he was handed beverages with improperly secured lids. According to the lawsuit filed in the California Superior Court in 2020, he “suffered severe burns, disfigurement, and debilitating nerve damage to his genitals when hot drinks ultimately spilled” on his lap.
The lawsuit ultimately accused the coffee chain of breaching its duty of care by not securing the lids, according to the report.
Sen. Krysten Sinema (I-AZ) might no longer be a US Senator, but that doesn’t mean she will keep her mouth shut, especially when there is an opportunity to shove it in the faces of her former colleagues. Sinema was brutalized for not going along with the Senate Democrats’ initial plan of removing the legislative filibuster.
This week, Democrats learned the value of the 60-vote threshold in limiting debate on legislation with the continuing resolution that will keep the government open for another six months as congressional Republicans hash out the budget reconciliation package. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) killed the first cloture vote and caved on
Happy Thursday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) People who are familiar with my rather free approach to expressing myself verbally both onstage and off are usually surprised to find that I don't like to use the word "hate." It's an aversion I developed when I became a father and it just stuck. As my habits go, it is one of the better ones.
It's also one that gets put to the test a lot when writing about the Democrats and their flying monkeys in the mainstream media five days a week. They're a dreadful lot, inspiring intensely negative feelings in those of us who deal with them.
Biological males competing in women’s sports is laughably unpopular, but the Democratic Party bet the farm that this would be a 21st-century Rosa Parks issue. It was a whirlwind of aberrant behavior, science fiction, and total strangeness. Even in Europe, the Eden of the Left, they’re now rolling back the nonsense like giving prepubescent teens puberty blockers. To my knowledge, no one has died since the United Kingdom’s healthcare service suspended this lunacy. That was the line: if you deny transgenders their stuff, everyone will die. Not the case.

The Trans Trend Trundles On

It never fails. About the time you think the drama is over, it rises from the muck like a swamp monster to steal your time, attention, and, if possible, your soul. Just when we thought it would be safe for women and girls to go back onto volleyball and basketball courts and into women's restrooms, the Left marshaled what remains of its wild-eyed forces to lurch into the trans agenda fight once again.
Yes, Gavin Newsom is repositioning himself for a 2028 run, and plenty of voters have the short-term memory to see him as a moderate and maybe even give him a win. But plenty of other
The Democrats Descend into Madness

The Democrat party has descended into madness. For anyone who may have doubted that before the State of the Union address, the Democrats went into overdrive to hammer the message home.
When you strip away all the platitudes around one of America’s two main political parties, what you’re left with is anti-woman, anti-American, anti-peace, and anti-reality.
Earlier this week, in a truly stunning moment, every Democrat senator voted against protecting women in sports, choosing the world’s worst hill to die on. This lopsided issue unites all sane people. Men should not be allowed to compete in women’s sports. It’s hard to understate how foolish Democrats’
Shalom, Hamas

President Trump met with eight freed hostages in the White House yesterday. In connection with the meeting he addressed Hamas with a certain verbal and moral clarity that had been lacking in the previous administration. “Shalom Hamas” got my attention:
“‘Shalom Hamas’ means Hello and Goodbye – You can choose. Release all of the Hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you. Only sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick and twisted! I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job, not a single Hamas member will be safe if you

For weeks, President Donald Trump has said that Canada should be America’s 51st state. He has mocked Canada’s economic dependence on the United States. He has condemned Canadian tariffs and trade restrictions. He has scolded Canada’s free riding on American defense. He has knocked Canada’s porous borders and drug dens. He has accused Canada of colluding with hostile foreign powers and global institutions. He has trolled our prime minister.
It’s delightful. Many Canadians are enjoying the show.
Up here in the cold white north, Trump has set the cat among the pigeons. Canada’s chattering classes are wringing their hands and gnashing their teeth.

A convicted double murderer is set to die by firing squad in South Carolina on Friday — the first execution of its kind in the US in 15 years.
Brad Sigmon, 67, personally requested the unusual punishment after fearing the electric chair would “burn and cook him alive,” his attorney Gerald King wrote in a statement.
He also rejected a lethal injection after three previous inmates took more than 20 minutes to die after receiving the fatal dose of pentobarbital, his lawyers said. Sigmon became the first South Carolina inmate to choose the state’s new firing squad method of killing,

orders Musk to restore access for employees 30 replies
Elon Musk's attempt to unilaterally dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development likely violated the United States Constitution, a federal judge ruled on Tuesday.
U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang ordered Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency to immediately give USAID employees access to their "email, payment, security notification, and all other electronic systems," and ordered a pause on any efforts to shut down USAID.
Judge Chuang wrote that Musk's takeover "usurped the authority of the public's elected representatives in Congress to make decisions on whether, when, and how to eliminate a federal government agency, and of Officers of the United States duly appointed under the Constitution
Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts scolded President Trump Tuesday for demanding that a federal judge who blocked the swift deportation of Venezeulan gang members be impeached.
In a rare direct response to a presidential statement, Roberts responded to Trump’s morning comments toward Chief DC US District Judge James Boasberg, saying: “For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision.
“The normal appellate review process exists for that reason,” the chief justice concluded.
President Donald Trump has said that Joe Biden's 11th-hour pardons of members of Congress who investigated the January 6 attack are "void, vacant and of no further effect." a post on Truth Social, Trump said that the pardons issued by his predecessor are not valid because they were allegedly signed using an autopen—a device that replicates a person's signature.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been slapped with a $54,000 penalty for blatantly violating Georgia’s open records laws in her politically motivated prosecution of President Donald Trump.
“The county’s Superior Court Judge Rachel Krause formalized her ruling Friday and ordered Willis to pay $54,264 in attorneys' fees and litigation costs after ‘intentionally’ failing to provide records requested by Ashleigh Merchant, the attorney who filed the motion to disqualify Willis from prosecuting Trump on charges of allegedly interfering with the 2020 presidential election,” reports Fox News Digital.

Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., traded his electric Tesla Model X for a gasoline-powered Chevy Tahoe, citing his criticism of billionaire Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk as the reason for the change.
“When I bought this thing, I didn’t think it was going to become a political issue,” Kelly said in a video on his social media accounts on Friday. “Every time I get in this car in the last 60 days or so, it reminds me of just how much damage Elon Musk and Donald Trump is doing to our country.”
While Chevy makes several electric and hybrid vehicles, Kelly decided to get the Chevy Tahoe, which averages about 21 miles
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) attacked President Donald Trump over the weekend for using the law to deport members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua terrorist organization.
Crockett made the remarks after Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport members of the hyper-violent organization on Saturday.
“That gang is obviously associated with a lot of crime, human trafficking, drug dealing theft, shootings, including in your state of Texas, right outside of your congressional district,” Tapper said.
“Do you agree with this?” he asked. “And, if not, what’s your issue with the U.S. using any tool at its disposal to remove undocumented violent people from this country?”

Secret Service protection ‘effective immediately’ 24 replies
President Trump revoked Hunter and Ashley Biden’s Secret Service security detail on Monday after the former first son, surrounded by more than a dozen agents, was spotted on an “ultra-luxurious” getaway in South Africa when he was due for a deposition in court.
“Hunter Biden has had Secret Service protection for an extended period of time, all paid for by the United States Taxpayer,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “There are as many as 18 people on this Detail, which is ridiculous!”
“He is currently vacationing in, of all places, South Africa, where the Human Rights of people has been strenuously questioned,”
A legal firm with deep ties to George and Alexander Soros’s network of left-wing nonprofits and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), is partially behind a lawsuit attempting to block President Donald Trump from deporting illegal alien gang members from the United States under the Alien Enemies Act, Breitbart News has learned.
Over the weekend, the Trump administration invoked the Alien Enemies Act to begin deporting illegal alien gang members to El Salvador under a deal with President Nayib Bukele. The agreement allows for the United States to fly foreign gang members to the country to be held in a mega-prison for an annual fee.

The Autopen is a fascinating device. Developed to allow celebrities to mass-produce autographs for hordes of swooning fans, it was never intended to enable a Muppet to serve as president of the United States. But that seems to be exactly what happened. Evidence has been emerging for a week that nearly every document Joe Biden allegedly signed after his first few days in office — every executive order, every pardon, every Congressional bill signed into law, every international treaty, every lifetime judicial nomination (including the nomination of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson) — was signed with not one, but two Autopens.

The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas is over as Israeli fighter jets began striking the Gaza Strip after Hamas refused repeated hostage deal offers, officials said.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) began striking Hamas terrorist targets across Gaza "in order to achieve the war objectives set by the political leadership, including the release of all our hostages—both the living and the fallen," the office of Defense Minister Israel Katz said in a letter.
"This decision comes after Hamas repeatedly refused to release our hostages and rejected all proposals presented by U.S. President’s envoy, Steve Witkoff, as well as the mediators," the letter states.
The former U.S. soccer star Megan Rapinoe has described President Trump’s ban on women in men’s sports as “cruel and depraved.”
Rapinoe made the remarks during a profile interview with MUNDIAL magazine over Trump’s changes to federal Title IX rules that prohibit biological men from playing in women’s sports.
“Don’t tell me it’s about the rights of women’s sports,” Rapinoe railed. “That is totally disingenuous to say that.”
The 40-year-old went on to claim that Trump biological men competing against women “isn’t an issue,”
