The survey also found solid support for the U.S.-Israel alliance, even as the level of backing has slightly declined

Marwan Barghouti is a cold-blooded mass murderer, responsible for the brutal deaths of dozens of Israelis. To compare him to Nelson Mandela is a grotesque insult to history and humanity. His hands are soaked with the blood of innocents: wedding guests murdered in January 2002,

Quote: "Most 'long-standing Republicans' reject those conspiracy theories, including the notion that 9/11 was an inside job and the Holocaust 'did not happen as historians describe.'But that’s not true of the 'new entrants.'"

The GOP should summon the gumption to persuade converts to the Trump movement of the virtues of Republicanism.

Illinois is hemorrhaging population, awash in red ink, & its main city is beset with violent crime. Its one-party leadership is focused on making federal law enforcement’s job as hard as possible in detaining people — many of them criminals — with no legal right to be in the US:
Illinois state officials have given national rental car companies official notice that ICE agents using their vehicles are not allowed to swap the rental’s assigned license plates for other plates to disguise the vehicles, and if they do, the rental car companies could be held

People just throw around statements like "the SAT means nothing." The SAT is more strongly predictive of college performance than high school GPA. There's a reason that colleges that dropped standardized tests are requiring them again -- they provide important information.
@cSchaez @jbarro @aduno_tal @SeanTrende Well, the SAT means nothing. But beyond that, if we’re trying to get kids ready for the real world, a 90-minute all-encompassing knowledge test is just not something anyone needs to do in the workforce. Like, a 24-hour turnaround on a task is typically pretty reasonable or fast.

This story remains exclusive to the Post. Beware of stories that remain exclusive.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

How to point the finger at someone while pretending to support him.
Let’s make one thing crystal clear: Admiral Mitch Bradley is an American hero, a true professional, and has my 100% support. I stand by him and the combat decisions he has made — on the September 2 mission and all others since. America is fortunate to have such men protecting

The NFL continues to use replay to correct some calls but not to correct obvious missed calls. This creates a credibility problem. When replay is used to move the spot of a ball 6 inches or used to see if the QB’s knee touched the ground— but can’t be used to see if he was

“Without evidence” is a virtue signal among many journos. Sometimes it’s accurate. Often it just means “without evidence that we are willing to acknowledge.”

Reading accounts of what Hamas did to Israeli hostages and what the Russians have done to Ukrainians they snatched, it is striking how similar the Russians and Hamas have been. Torture, denial of food, and continuing abuse characterized both. Neither should escape accountability.
