New post: "2020 Democrats normalize anti-Semitism by defending Ilhan Omar" washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2020-d…
Contra 2020 Dems, Omar was not criticizing specific Israeli policies when she said "it's all about the Benjamins." She wasn't opposing Netanyahu when she referred to "allegiance to a foreign country." She was spewing out hatred for Jews. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2020-d…
Leading Dems are cowards. They are too worried about their base to stick up for a minority group that has been the leading target of anti-religious hate crimes for decades despite representing just 2% of the population washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2020-d…
What's striking is that Omar improved her position with Democrats by being *more unapologetically anti-Semitic.* Just a few weeks ago, Pelosi condemned her. Now, following additional anti-Semitic statements, Pelosi is making excuses for her. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2020-d…
The signal leading Democrats are sending is not only that anti-Semitism will be tolerated within their party, but the more unapologetic somebody is about their anti-Semitism, the more likely they are to be defended. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2020-d…

New post: "Paul Ryan's fantasy view of American politics" washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/paul-r…
This theory that elections are won by the party that has the best ideas is a nice fairy tale that some politicians and pundits like to tell themselves, but it's completely at odds with reality. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/paul-r…
Is it really Ryan's contention that Trump emerged from a field of 17 Republican candidates and eventually won the presidency, not because of his personality, but because of his ideas? washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/paul-r…

New post: "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez now as unpopular as Ted Cruz during 2013 government shutdown over Obamacare defunding" washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/alexan…
Note:I deleted an earlier tweet & fixed headline and story, bc though Ocasio-Cortez has a higher unfavorable rating, she has a slightly higher favorable rating than Cruz did and they're both -10 on net. So fair to say she's AS unpopular, not MORE unpopular washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/alexan…
Ocasio-Cortez has a -10 favorability rating. That's the same as Ted Cruz in Oct. 2013, during height of outrage over a government shutdown he was widely blamed for. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/alexan…

New post: "Pathetic Senate Republicans abandon principles by embracing Trump's emergency declaration" washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/pathet…
Even if you think the emergency powers act should be changed, there's no reason you can't also vote against this specific invocation of it washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/pathet…
Even if you believe this could be legally justified, it doesn't mean you have to affirmatively support it. You can say that a flawed law gives president the right to do X, but also asset Congressional authority to stop him washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/pathet…

🇮🇱🇮🇱THREAD ON ANTI-SEMITISM & ISRAEL🇮🇱🇮🇱

Those who conflate opposition to unquestioning support for Israel with anti-Semitism are like #JussieSmollett: they cheapen the experiences of actual victims of anti-Semitism
Let's be clear, anti-Semitism is real and, sadly, it's on the rise in the U.S., especially since the 2016 election. According to the Anti-Defamation League, there was a 60% increase in anti-Semitic incidents from 2016 to 2017.
adl.org/news/press-rel…
The massacre at the #TreeOfLifeSynagogue last fall was the deadliest attack on the American Jewish community in U.S. history. And it was committed by an anti-Semitic white nationalist.

Reminder: The @ADL Promoted Anti-Semitic BDS Supporter @IlhanMN Omar frontpagemag.com/point/272703/r…
It used to be that the ADL claimed to fight anti-Semitism. Now it promotes anti-Semitism.
As Rep. Ilhan Omar is in the eye of the storm after trying to minimize the impact of the Holocaust on Jews and after semi-apologizing for her previous anti-Semitic remarks, it's important to remember that instead of standing up to Omar, the Greenblatt ADL actually promoted her.

1. And now I'm going to tell a story. Another false flag. This time is to force @POTUS not to take the US army out of #Syria.
They already have a lot of experience (8 years) to make chemical attacks to accuse the Syrian government.
OH, and they even have a manual.🧐😲🤨
@RandPaul
2. ISIS terrorist? 😲Seriously?🤨 Have they investigated? 🤓And they already know who it was? 🧐Super efficient 🙃.

Preliminary reports say at least six people were killed & 19 injured by the explosion. US official: 4 US army Killed & 3 US army wounded.

3. ISIS took responsability?😲Seriously?🤨Have they investigated?🤓They already know who it was? 🧐Super efficient 🙃.

The Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) took responsibility for the attack that reportedly targeted the US-led coalition’s patrol.

Back in Gang of 8 days, way to win GOP support was to throw in lots of high tech--sensors, drones, infrared--to create 'virtual' fence instead of actual physical border barrier. Now, Dems talking same stuff... 1/4 ow.ly/pe3O30naw9P
Still, Dems appear open to 'enhanced fencing'--higher, better fencing, possibly pedestrian replacing vehicle fencing--plus altogether new barriers. But offering it within package of high tech stuff. 2/4 washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/column…
One obvious possible resolution: GOP gets new fencing, improved in existing areas and new in currently un-fenced areas, while fence opponents crow about all the new high-tech gadgets they bought. 3/4 washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/column…

Anyone – such as @guyverhofstadt – who vilifies Viktor Orban and the current Hungarian government, must be a dangerous antisemite, and should be condemned; because, as Netanyahu said, Orban is a "true friend of Israel". duckduckgo.com/?q=orban+true+…
So were the Nazis. But we aren't allowed to talk about that. Because free speech. Democracy. Liberty. Tolerance. You know. Our "Western values".
Now, about this recent Nazi-esque "Cathedral of Light" performance by #Ukraine's US-NATO backed – and #Israeli armed duckduckgo.com/?q=israel+arms… – openly neo-Nazi Azov Regiment...

1. Ahad voted against permission for a new @marksandspencer store because he felt that M&S are "Zionists who kill Palestinians" Dipu is quite unpleasant, he also hounded the members of the Holocaust Memorial Day org so badly, the Jewish members walked out chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-eas…
2) Lord Ahmed, blamed a "Jewish Conspiracy" for his imprisonment for a fatal motorway crash. Ahmed resigned from @UKLabour thetimes.co.uk/article/muslim…
3) Cllr Aziz urged Jews to “stop drinking Gaza’s blood,”. He has also compared the actions of Israelis towards the Palestinians to the actions of Nazis towards Jews & said Jews in the Middle East could move to the U.S. He is still an @UKLabour Councillor jewishnews.timesofisrael.com/ilyas-aziz-rea…
