I find it interesting that the Lawyer for the Special Council has made two big errors in his argument. In fact he has contradicted himself several times.
1)
1. He is basing his argument on the assumption that Immunity for Acts of a President is not needed as prosecutors and grand juries are always honest, non-political and objective. OF COURSE THAT IS ABSURD.
2)
WE HAVE WITNESSED THE POLITICIZATION OF THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND THE PROSECUTOR. In short, Trump should be denied immunity because we should all trust the Government. Justice Alito questioned this assumption.

He has repeated that Florida has a code of conduct. Those that violate it should be expelled.
1)
And that foreign students who participate in political activity should be deported.
In Florida, universities that violate the code of conduct which is for students and staff, can be penalized.
Now, where is the rest of the country?
2)
Fact, the pro-Hamas, antisemitic protesters are criminal. One does not negotiate with criminals. One does not make concessions to those who condone Hamas terrorism. A person who condones terrorism is a facilitator of terrorism.

Yes, we are seeing a resurgence of antisemitism in the USA and worldwide but we need to focus. This is not the 1930’s.
1)
This is not that period of time when antisemitism was virtually the norm of the majority of Cristians in the US and Europe. No, this is 2024, and there are a lot of differences from what was the reality of the 1930’s.
2)
In 2024, the problem of antisemitism is not coming from the Churches.and their members. It is coming from the most secular, the least committed to moral values and standards, and from those who have a political interest for which antisemitism is an easy tool.

1)
First of all, where are the responses of the General Student body at Harvard or Yale or Columbia. They are silent. Not a word from Student Governments. Not a word from other student organizations.
2)
Are they condoning the pro-terrorists or is it they just don’t want to look and don’t want to think about how this may affect how the reputation of their school and of their own degrees may suffer.

Roger Froikin @rlefraim wrote, "THERE HAS BEEN A NUMBER OF ARTICLES ABOUT THE ISSUE THAT THOSE THAT LEFT EGYPT WITH MOSES, WERE A MINORITY OF THE SLAVES.
1)
There is a bit of confusion on this issue, because the Rabbis claimed that a minority of those who were slaves followed Moshe out of Egypt.
2)
The fact is that there was, what our Sages called, a "mixed multitude", made up not only of the descendants of Ya'acov, but also the descendants of other groups from Hyksos Sea Peoples who settled in Egypt, multiplied and became non-Egyptian slaves as well.
