Biden constantly questions Trump's faith. Constantly.
June: Biden suggests Trump never reads the Bible go.shr.lc/3idB4kY - @WashTimes
July: Biden lies about Trump holding Bible upside down breitbart.com/politics/2020/…
If you don't like it when people question your faith -- and after supporting federal funding of abortion through faith, as well as opposing Little Sisters of the Poor, you have some explaining to do -- then don't question other people's faith. Biden can't take what he dishes out.
*abortion thru birth not faith

My report from Gaza. We went to an @IDF outpost inside the “Yellow Line,” under Israeli control during the ceasefire. The outpost is surrounded by the neighborhood of Shejaiya, totally destroyed by war. In the distance, Gaza City is largely intact, spared by the ceasefire. (1/7) Image
Before entering Gaza, IDF spokesman @LTC_Shoshani briefed journalists on the situation, noting that Hamas continues to violate the ceasefire, even using supposed searches for hostages’ bodies to plant weapons and explosives. He showed us (censored) maps of tunnels and IEDs. (2/7)
We entered in an IDF truck and with escort vehicles. The situation is still dangerous and we were given instructions about what to do in case of an ambush. Entering Gaza felt like entering a kind of hell, a place some no doubt call home but from which so much evil emanated. (3/7)

The @LAPDHQ after-action report on the #PalisadesFire has been released. Here are several key points.

TL;DR: Officers diverted to President Biden's visit were unavailable to direct evacuation; there was poor communication/coordination with LAFD.

The report confirms what I reported exclusively at the time: that President Biden's presence diverted key LAPD resources, e.g. there were no motorcycle officers available to direct the evacuation: "Unfortunately, the POTUS CP was unable to release the motorcycle officers." (2/10)
The report notes that a decision to create a separate radio frequency for the fire created confusion, as did relocating the command post from Fire Station 23 (which caught fire) to Will Rogers beach. All of these responses, moreover, took place long after the fire started. (3/10)

.@GavinNewsom told at least two giant lies in his aurally-challenged speech: 1. He claimed the riot started Saturday night after Trump mobilized the National Guard. It started Friday. 2. He claimed the Army parade is for Trump‘s birthday. It’s for the 250th birthday of the Army.

A brief, politically incorrect thread on why Trump’s proposal for Gaza makes sense. It’s a provocative way to push the Arab world to take responsibility for the Palestinians, rather than the failed approach of placing the entire burden on Israel and the U.S. to compromise. (1/4)
In the early hours after the October 7 attack, many Israelis and supporters of Israel said bellicose things aimed at restoring a sense that there was some kind of deterrent against the genocidal aims of Hamas, when the military deterrent had (for a moment) clearly faltered. (2/4)
In every existential conflict, only mutually assured destruction deters each side from aggression and encourages compromise. Israel’s threat to Hamas — thanks to Biden, and global pressure, and the hostages — was not seen as credible, even as Israel crushed Hamas in battle. (3/4)

A quick thread on California's water supply issues and the L.A. fires. There is a great deal of confusion on this topic. The 2 concepts are related, but not necessarily in a direct manner. L.A. was not generally short of water; it mismanaged the water supply it already had. (1/9)
Dry, densely-populated Southern California obtains much of its water from wet, sparsely-populated Northern California. It does so through a system of federal & state reservoirs and aqueducts. It also gets water from the Colorado River and, to a lesser extent, desalination. (2/9)
Farmers and municipal water users (household and industry) share the same water sources. In recent decades, the flow has been restricted due to low rainfall and also due to concerns about the delta smelt, the endangered (but easily cultivated) species that Trump talks about (3/9)

How to return to the Pacific Palisades today, after @POTUS @realDonaldTrump pushed @MayorOfLA @KarenBassLA to let residents back in to see their lots, collect the pieces of their lives, grieve, & start the process of rebuilding. (Thank you, President Trump.) #PalisadesFire (1/10)
1. Enter Lot #3, southbound on PCH in #SantaMonica. (2/10) Image
2. Show your driver's license with your Palisades address. Wait in line. Enjoy the view. (3/10) Image
