THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! I, for one, have been eating popcorn continuously!

Popcorn farmers are sitting on mountains of unsold popcorn, in part due to closed movie theaters fxn.ws/3cgTShI #FoxNews

My problem with Biden's response to the vast surge in antisemitism on his watch is that his statements have been fine, but followed up with almost zero specific action by his administration. He has done as little as Trump did after Charlottesville.
Frankly, Biden and AG Merrick Garland have acted far, FAR more aggressively against conservative groups.

See how they responded to critics of schools. They were right to do this...but we've seen nothing of the sort against anti-semites. Why?

apnews.com/article/educat…
Let's see Garland's 'memo' targeting anti-semitic groups, largely pro-Palestinian ones, and then I might believe they are treating this threat reasonably.

We've seen no such response.

Again, I rhetorically ask the question: Why?

We all know why.

Democrats are really, truly going to be stupid enough to let Donald Trump win, aren't they?

They are completely oblivious and trying to lose.

Let me count the ways:
1. Biden's age.

This is pretty obvious at this point. They are denying the reality of Biden's physical and mental decline. Voters see it.
2. Polling

Biden himself has said that the polls 'were wrong'. They aren't wrong. They are probably relatively accurate. Best case scenario, Biden is tied with a convicted, impeached opponent. Worst case, he is losing to that same clown.

The problem is that Biden is always wandering. This is not a unique moment. The media knows this, but since they are so dishonest, they have no credibility at all.

We are not having an honest discussion about Biden's health, period. washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/…
Again, which major publication has talked about this?

Certainly not @washingtonpost .

They still can't admit they 100% got it wrong. They weren't even a little bit correct. They were as wrong as calling the Earth flat. Image
"The issue was always whether the material was part of a foreign effort to influence the election — as had occurred four years before."

Um, no.

The issue was whether the media including @pbump and @washingtonpost would investigate it properly.

They didn't. They failed.
"The issue at the time of the New York Post report was in part that the material might not be authentic."

But they didn't report "Oh, it MIGHT be inauthentic."

They reported it was LITERALLY INAUTHENTIC, and then used Democrat liars to back that up.

I think one thing a lot of people don't realize is Palestine isn't alone as a British protectorate that was never an independent country before the Brits left.

India ALSO DID NOT EXIST BEFORE PARTITION IN 1947. There was no 'India', in any real terms.
India was divided by numerous British protectorates or provinces. There was no 'India', as a nation. This was basically true of Palestine as well...there was no independent Palestine before division. Image
Lets note that Jinnah, the father of Pakistan, opposed the name India all together. “He [Jinnah] was under the impression that neither state (India or Pakistan) would want to adopt the British title of ‘India’."

I think this article largely misses the point. The reason that they are struggling is that this undermines what they've taught about racism and bigotry for 50 years.

Why Colleges Are Struggling To Crack Down on Antisemitism via @politicopoliti.co/3ucgtsE
Reality is that it was always easy: Whites and those in power were the bigots. Those that were 'Almost White' (Jews, Asians) were lumped in.

But in this episode, its largely 'brown' people like myeslf that are the bigots, and their targets are Jews (who are viewed as White).
In short, this up ends half century of liberal/progressive theology on racism. And colleges, run by those that run that theology, are struggling to face the fact that they've largely been wrong for 50 years.
