I have long been wondering about Qatar’s willingness to host Hamas’ leadership post-10/7. As non-Western as Qatar is, the Emirate has been working assiduously to court Western approval and is hardly a radical Islamist state. This is not to suggest the regime is liberal or Liberal, but rather that they aren’t exactly Iranian-style fanatics. The […]
Personally, I’ve got a raging case of “Don’t let the barn door hit you in the bassoon” on hearing this (Karen caught the beginning of it a couple days ago), but that’s just me versus the Jew-haters. So what’s happening is, there’s this big festival thingie in Austin all the “with-it” types like to go […]
Broadway plays are subject to the same interruptions as every other live event these days. Protesters thirsty for attention ruin everything. During Thursday night’s performance of “An Enemy of the People,” starring Michael Imperioli (Sopranos) and Jeremy Strong (Succession), environmental wackos disrupted the start of the second act. It is reported that there were three […]
China seems to be gearing up for a fight to preserve its effective control of TikTok. Yesterday a Chinese foreign ministry spokesman compared Congress to bandits. At a news conference in Beijing on Thursday, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said the vote on the bill “runs contrary to the principles of fair competition and […]
The GAO says the quiet part out loud: nobody actually knows how much corruption there is in Ukraine’s use of US military aid. Quelle surprise! Who could have guessed that in the midst of a desperate war in a notoriously corrupt country that unknown quantities of expensive, high-tech military aid might fall through the cracks. […]
President Biden suffered a setback last week when a district judge issued a temporary injunction to stop him from redirecting $1.4B that Congress allocated for a barrier on the U.S.-Mexico border. U.S. District Judge Drew Tipton, a Trump appointee, temporarily halted the funds in question – money Congress allocated in 2020 and 2021 – to […]
Out: Full withdrawal before any hostage releases. In: Women released … and then a full withdrawal. And also still in: a 1:10 ratio of hostages to Palestinian prisoners in Israel, with a nearly 1:1 ratio for those serving life sentences for murder. What a deal. It does, however, mark at least somewhat of a shift in […]
If you have been following the controversies on care for so-called transgender children, you have likely heard that the UK has, along with most European countries, reversed course on the medicalization of gender confusion in children. Even the Dutch, who invented the “Dutch Protocol” that normalized the use of puberty blockers, hormones, and surgery to […]
Profiles in Courage, it ain’t. Judge Scott McAfee has just released his much-anticipated ruling on the disqualification motion involving Fani Willis, Nathan Wade, and the prosecution of Donald Trump et al in Fulton County, Georgia. Faced with an absurd set of explanations, courtroom deceit, and obvious political grandstanding from Wills and Wade, McAfee decided to […]
Democratic Socialist Senator Bernie Sanders, the author of “It’s OK To Be Angry About Capitalism,” has introduced yet another bill that would mandate most employers to shift to a four-day work week for employers or pay hefty penalties to those still working a normal schedule.
