Ta-Nehisi Coates wasn't just "critical of Israel." He claimed that if he lived in Gaza he would have joined the Hamas terrorists and participated in the October 7th massacre. But I guess that fact would not align with Glenn's narrative on the Joooos at CBS News.
I would never have guessed that Larry Ellison's son and Bari Weiss would chose a guy who is a fanatical supporter of Israel, who was married to an Israeli, and who accused Ta-Nehisi Coates of being a terrorist for writing a book critical of Israel, as the next CBS News anchor.🇮🇱

HORRIFYING: The family of former hostage Noa Marciano, z"l, revealed that they were sent a video of their daughter being executed by a doctor in a Gazan hospital. Her father still wakes up from nightmares about the video. The doctor injected air into her veins. Noa was

I look forward to discovery — especially the CAIR finances. Should be illuminating!
Inbox: After @GovRonDeSantis declared CAIR a foreign terrorist organization by executive order, its Florida chapter & the national HQ says they are suing.

The UN is pretty outraged that Israel raided UNRWA’s East Jerusalem office. They weren’t nearly this outraged to learn that UNRWA employees took part in the October 7 massacre and the kidnapping of Israelis.

Meet Asher and Yonatan Palmer. On September 23, 2011, Asher Palmer was driving on Route 60 when a Palestinian hurled a large rock through his windshield. He crashed and was killed with his infant son upon impact. Rocks kill. These aren’t pebbles.
Yes those are the only two options: either you kill a teenager for throwing a rock or you fail to prevent a mass casualty event with a runaway car. This is the same in London. These kids were famously executed on the spot to prevent a mass terror event. Hey it’s democracy ok? /s

Sen. Roman Hruska (R-NE) in 1970: “There are a lot of mediocre judges and people and lawyers. They are entitled to a little representation, aren't they? We can't have all Brandeises and Frankfurters and Cardozos."
We all owe Justice Jackson a debt of gratitude for demonstrating that anyone can be a Supreme Court Justice, even those with no legal no historical or knowledge, a complete lack of erudition, and grave mental limitations.

At the Slaughter argument, Justice Jackson suggested independent agencies are typically run by experts. But if you look at the bios of recent commissioners, almost all are lawyers or former Hill staffers. I doubt the value of expertise that can magically be satisfied by a JD.

3. This case is just one more exhibit in the long indictment of how we regulate elections; as the Manhattan Institute argued in our amicus brief, authored by former FEC chairman @CommishSmith, Congress lacks any authority to regulate political speech in the first place.

2. Although the Supreme Court approved that restriction a quarter-century ago by a 5-4 vote, changes in both First Amendment doctrine and intervening practical developments have eroded the validity of that narrow decision (known as Colorado II). Experience in the states, where

1. This morning’s argument in NRSC v. FEC illustrates the continuing and increasing absurdity of our campaign-finance regime. The idea that the government can restrict coordination between parties and candidates—to prevent potential indirect bribery of individual politicians by

This is a direct consequence of Ireland, @amnesty, @btselem, @hrw, and South Africa attempting to shift the standard of intent for genocide. Russia has now filed a counter-claim against Ukraine for genocide in Ukraine of Russians. Weaponizing the law has consequences. Ukraine

Nah, Israel just doesn’t like terrorists and their supporting organizations.
Israel has expelled UNWRA this morning, demonstrating yet again utter disregard for international law and the ICJ. Demonstrating too utter disregard for the lives of Palestinians, the majority of whom depend on UNRWA assistance.

In a surprise to nobody, Hamas stole and hid infant formula so they could claim Gazan children were being starved
During the worst of the days of the hunger crisis in Gaza in the past six months, Hamas deliberately hid literal tons of infant formula and nutritional shakes for children by storing them in clandestine warehouses belonging to the Gaza Ministry of Health. The goal, as I said

This will be a fun dissent to ignore.
SCOTUS: Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson told the Court that presidents should not be able to fire the PhDs & experts who run the government. She even argued presidents should avoid control over transportation & the economy. In a remarkable exchange in Trump v Slaughter, Justice
