    Corey Walker said this in The Algemeiner:
    ================================================

    Doug Schoen, a former adviser under then-US President Bill Clinton,
    revealed on Tuesday that he is not planning to vote for Democratic
    presidential nominee Kamala Harris to serve as the next commander-in-chief
    in the White House, citing her policies toward Israel
    and combating antisemitism as the main reasons.
    ….
    “At this point I cannot [vote for Kamala Harris],” [Doug] Schoen said.
    “I would call myself undecided, at this point. But I can’t vote for her,
    for reasons related to her changing position and also the Middle East
    as we have talked about before. I do not believe she is
    sufficiently committed to Israel and fighting antisemitism.”
    ….
    She [Kamala Harris] has also expressed sympathy for far-left
    narratives that [falsely] brand Israel as “genocidal.”

    The Vice President [Kamala Harris] has additionally often
    criticized Israel’s war effort against the [Iranian-backed]
    Palestinian terrorist group Hamas in Gaza.

    [Kamala] Harris also pushed the unsubstantiated narrative
    that Israel has intentionally withheld aid from the people of Gaza,
    allegedly triggering a famine.

    [Kamala] Harris has also expressed sympathy for anti-Israel protesters
    on US university campuses, saying that they are
    “showing exactly what the human emotion should be.”

    Rabbi Steven Pruzansky (an Orthodox Rabbi
    from the USA who made aliyah) recently said this:

    ================================================

    “…almost the entire Democrat [Party] establishment had collectively
    lied to the American people for years about Biden’s incapacity
    (including Kamala Harris); that Harris had been perceived by
    that same establishment as a mediocrity who could not win or govern;
    and the doubt that Dems could get away with not explaining
    to the American people why Biden changed his mind so abruptly and how,
    if he is too incapacitated to run for re-election,
    he is still vigorous and lucid enough to govern.”

    “These three statements are all true and on each score the Dems
    have escaped accountability. Chalk that up to a compliant media
    and a willfully blind public. How was it that Joe Biden swore that
    only a direct message from God would cause him to drop out –
    and then just days later he’s passing the torch to a new generation?
    Who was it that kneecapped him with the torch?
    Americans would surely know by now if they weren’t either
    so incredibly docile or politically ossified into two rigid camps
    in which each camper just votes for his or her team.”

    “[Kamala] Harris is an unserious individual being adroitly handled
    by serious people who want to win at all costs. They know
    exactly how to market her, how to fool a gullible population,
    and how to obscure her vulnerabilities, which primarily means hiding her.

    She has made a career of failing upwards, the beneficiary of
    social promotions with an undistinguished record in every office
    she has held and placed in critical positions by powerful male patrons.
    The disappearing trick can work not only because the American
    voting public is easily manipulated
    but also because of the weaknesses of her opponent.”
    ….
    “Kamala Harris is even more inept, arguably a worse campaigner
    except when reading a teleprompter, and flirts with incoherence
    every time she opens her mouth without a script in front of her.”

    “ONE DRAMATIC DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO PARTIES
    IS THAT TRUMP HAS RULED OUT THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A
    PALESTINIAN STATE AS IMPOSSIBLE AT THIS TIME IN HISTORY,
    WHEREAS DEMOCRATS HAVE MADE IT THEIR PASSION PROJECT
    REGARDLESS OF ITS EFFECT ON ISRAEL.”

    “President Trump was tough on Iran and brought them to the verge of bankruptcy”

    The opposite is true. His killing the JCPOA was greeted with enthusiasm by the mullahs as it greenlighted them to resume unrestricted uranium enrichment. And Trump’s unwillingness to confront Putin allowed Putin to make the sanctions on Iran meaningless and in fact Putin subsidized Iran to the tune of tens of billions of dollars every year. Furthermore, Trump’s entire business empire depends now on Russian oligarchs for financing so Trump is in no position ever to say no to Putin. Trump also was personally paid millions by the Chinese so he owes Xi. Vance voted against aid to Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel so you can understand why those countries’ history is.in jeopardy should Vance ever become President, which is likely given Trump’s age and obvious failing mental condition.

    Daniel Greenfield said this:

    Democrats have tried to reassure Jewish voters that they have
    nothing to worry about despite Kamala’s harsh criticism of Israel’s war on Hamas.

    To counter those concerns, the Jewish Democratic Council of America,
    headed by Haile Sofer, Kamala’s old policy adviser,
    rolled out a ‘Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris’ online rally.

    But while the Zoom rally flier may feature a photo of Kamala and her husband,
    Doug Emhoff, awkwardly lighting a menorah,
    the leading figures in the rally only raise more questions.

    The two most prominent non-elected officials taking part in the rally
    are Randi Weingarten, the head of the American Federation of Teachers union,
    and her [lesbian] girlfriend, Sharon Kleinbaum.

    While [Randi] Weingarten is best known for her work in keeping school closed
    leading to as much as a grade point of loss in education,
    she is militantly anti-Israel and has used antisemitic rhetoric.

    In response to a question from the JTA, a liberal Jewish media outlet,
    about the power of teachers’ unions, [Randi] Weingarten launched into
    an antisemitic tirade in which she claimed that
    “American Jews are now part of the ownership class” who
    “want to take that ladder of opportunity away from those who do not have it.”
    The American Jewish Committee had responded with
    an op-ed urging her to “Counter, Not Inflame, Antisemitism”.

    I have tried to reach out to ‘Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris’
    to inquire if they agree with Randi Weingarten that Jews are
    “the ownership class” who “want to take that ladder of opportunity
    away from those who do not have it”, but have not received an answer.

    Weingarten had befriended and defended antisemites including former
    Women’s March leaders Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour,
    calling them “friends” and “warriors for justice.” Mallory was an enthusiastic fan
    of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who had praised Hitler.
    She had described the creation of Israel as
    a “human rights crime” and attacked Jewish groups.

    [Linda] Sarsour had a long track record of antisemitism and support for Islamic terrorism.
    After the Oct 7 Hamas attacks, the Islamic activist claimed that Jewish hostage posters
    were entrapment and that Jews everywhere were watching them.
    “So when you go home, they have their little people all over the place,
    trust me I know them, I got a radar for them…
    you think they’re ordinary people, trust me when I tell you they are everywhere.
    They’re on your college campus, they’re outside the supermarket, they’re outside Grand Central Station.”

    Not only did Weingarten not stand with Jewish activists against the Women’s March anti-Semitic leaders,
    but she is a board member of the Americans for Peace Now BDS group whose CEO Hadar Susskind
    praised Ben & Jerry’s decision to boycott Israel as a “principled moral stance which we fully support”.
    APN [Americans for Peace Now] has platformed antisemitic figures
    like UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese who
    claimed that America is “subjugated by the Jewish lobby”.

    Weingarten’s AFT [American Federation of Teachers] union has demanded
    that Israel stop attacking Hamas in a resolution presented with
    personal support from Randi at a convention where Kamala spoke.
    The AFT defended the pro-terrorist mobs harassing Jewish students and faculty on campuses.

    Randi Weingarten has repeatedly attacked Israel and tweeted a quote
    claiming that “the Hamas attack was heinous;
    the Israeli government’s actions in Gaza have been reprehensible.”

    [Randi] Weingarten’s [lesbian] girlfriend, Sharon Kleinbaum,
    and fellow participant in Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris is even worse.
    After Kleinbaum read the names of Hamas terrorists alongside fallen
    Israeli soldiers at the LGBTQ temple she formerly officiated at,
    congregants left feeling that it had become pro-terrorist.
    One departing congregant complained that it
    “was essentially delivering Hamas propaganda.
    … My partner and I are starting a family and frankly I don’t
    want to raise my kids in a synagogue that’s praying for people firing rockets.”

    Kleinbaum had co-signed a T’ruah letter together with anti-Israel activists
    urging Biden not to allow Israel to finish off Hamas in Rafah
    and claimed that Israel cannot “lay the full responsibility for the unimaginable
    suffering of a massive population of trapped civilians at the feet of Hamas.”
    The letter also called for Biden to impose sanctions on members of Israel’s government.

    Weingarten and Kleinbaum are not outliers at Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris.

    Sharon Brous of IKAR, profiled by Variety as a “trendy, progressive congregation”
    whose wealthy congregants include Steven Spielberg
    and appears to have some link to Kamala’s husband, is also on the list.
    Brous had attacked the Jewish State before the Oct 7 attacks,
    including in a hateful Yom Kippur address, claiming
    that “there can be no democracy with occupation.”

    [Sharon] Brous is a member of the councils of anti-Israel groups
    like J Street, and the New Israel Fund. Worse still, IKAR has participated
    in events with IfNotNow, an anti-Israel hate group
    linked to many of the ugly protests against the Jewish State.

    Sharon Brous has a long history of supporting antisemites,
    attacking Jews for opposing Rep. Rashida Tlaib and Rep. Ilhan Omar,
    claiming that Jews “have spent years in hive mentality,
    pouncing on indications of anti-Semitism among Israel’s critics”,
    accused the Jewish State of a “52-year military occupation
    of millions of Palestinian people” and ranted that
    American Jews must “hear Palestinian voices.”

    Like Weingarten, Brous attacked Jewish critics of the antisemitism
    in the Women’s March leadership, falsely claiming that the criticisms were,
    “a deliberate smear campaign from the far right to delegitimize the march itself.”
    She complained that, “a much greater problem would be if the Jewish community
    stepped out of activism because we’re afraid that
    someone on the stage has a position on BDS different than our own.”

    Lauren Holtzblatt, the final clergymember on the Jewish Americans
    for Kamala Harris call, is a member of J Street cabinet (while also tragically
    and inappropriately) serving as Hillel International’s director of campus
    initiatives and has also been associated with
    the anti-Israel group T’ruah and signed on to its letters.

    Every single [fake] ‘rabbi’ presented by ‘Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris’
    is also affiliated with anti-Israel groups. This raises troubling questions about not only
    the anti-Israel extremism that had already infiltrated the
    Jewish Democratic Council of America, but Kamala’s campaign.

    Not only does ‘Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris’ appear
    to be co-hosted with the Kamala Harris presidential campaign,
    but several of its anti-Israel clergy have ties to Kamala.

    Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris’ shows that
    the Kamala campaign, like the Obama campaign, calculatedly platforms
    and normalizes anti-Israel activists while shutting out normative figures
    in the Jewish community. It is not a coincidence that all of the clergy
    at the virtual rally were anti-Israel activists. It also not a coincidence that
    no pro-Israel clergy or members of more
    traditionally religious denominations were on the call.

    The ‘Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris’ rally anticipates a Kamala
    administration that will pursue anti-Israel policies
    while surrounding itself with anti-Israel activists of Jewish descent.

    Jewish Democratic Council of America has sent a clear signal that
    the only Jews welcome by the Kamala campaign are those
    that will join it in opposing the Jewish State.

    Caroline B. Glick said this on Jewish News Syndicate:

    Since October 7, [2023] [Kamala] Harris has been the most outspoken critic of Israel in the administration. Just three weeks after the Hamas invasion, and in the midst of the worst eruptions of antisemitism in the United States in 90 years, Harris announced on X that the Biden administration would develop “the first ever U.S. National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia.”

    She [Kamala Harris] then added, falsely, “As the result of the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, we have seen an uptick in anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab and Islamophobic incidents across America.”

    Last week [Kamala] Harris raised concerns about her commitment to Israel’s security when she met with the heads of the most viciously anti-Israel and pro-Hamas group in the Democratic party ahead of an election rally in Michigan.

    [Kamala]Harris spoke with the heads of the so-called “Uncommitted National Movement,” the group that convinced thousands of pro-Hamas voters in Michigan to vote “uncommitted” rather than vote for Biden in the Michigan primaries. According to the Washington Free Beacon, the two leaders in the conversation with Harris were Abbas Alawieh, former chief of staff for Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), and Layla Elabed, sister of Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.). Tlaib and Bush, of course are outspoken in their hatred for Israel and for American Jews who support Israel. After losing her Democratic primary in a landslide defeat on Aug. 6, Bush committed herself to destroying the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
    In her words, “AIPAC, I’m coming to tear your kingdom down!”

    Alawieh and Elabed told [Kamala] Harris that they want the United States to impose an arms embargo on Israel. Harris reportedly responded that she is “open” to a discussion on the issue. While Harris’s aides have breathlessly insisted that she never expressed any support for an arms embargo and that she opposes an arms embargo, Harris supported the administration’s decision to block shipments of several critical weapons systems to Israel.

    In late March she [Kamala Harris] threatened Israel with “consequences,” if it defied the administration’s wishes and began a ground operation in Rafah.

    In mid-March, [Kamala] Harris stood at a historic Civil Rights movement-era site in Selma, Alabama and intimated that Israel was committing war crimes in Gaza.

    Referring to humanitarian conditions in the terror enclave as a “catastrophe,” [Kamala] Harris said, “What we’re seeing every day in Gaza is devastating. We have seen reports of families eating leaves or animal feed. Women giving birth to malnourished babies with little to no medical care. Children dying from malnutrition and dehydration.”

    She [Kamala Harris] then wagged her finger and said, “The Israeli government must do more to significantly increase the flow of aid. No excuses.”

    None of [Kamala] Harris’s descriptions were accurate. By giving voice to the slanders, the vice president facilitated the anti-Israel and anti-Jewish riots that were taking place on U.S. campuses, and provided support to the International Court of Justice at the Hague and its Kafkaesque trial of Israel for genocide.

    [Kamala] Harris’s national security adviser Phil Gordon has a long history of pro-Iran and pro-Hamas positions….

    The MSM (Mainstream News Media) never stops trying to help the Democrats and Liberals.

    This is how they do it:

    [1] Erasing or minimizing the flaws of Democrats and Liberals.

    [2] Erasing or minimizing the positive points of all those who oppose the Democrats and Liberals.

    [3] Constantly emphasizing the positive points of Democrats and Liberals,
    and even creating fictional positive points for Democrats and Liberals,

    [4] Constantly emphasizing the negative points of all those who oppose the Democrats and Liberals,
    and even creating fictional negative points for all those who oppose the Democrats and Liberals,

    After many years of listening to the distortions of Mainstream News Media,
    even intelligent people are no longer able to think logically.

    Last but not least, any member of the Mainstream News Media
    who does not follow their standard Socialist / Neo-Marxist agenda
    is ridiculed and bullied and criticized, until he or she resigns.

    interesting to see how far bias can take people. NYT has a mushy article about neis of exploding beepers – they lead with innocent victims, barely explain what blew up. As a result, casual readers who do not keep in mind that Hezbolla is bombing Israel for a year and that only Hezbollah members were issued the beepers start remarking that this is an act of terrorism; how would they know that only terrorists have beepers; etc, etc. Other readers are patiently explaining the facts to them. I wonder whether the original posters change their mind, I did not see any retractions so far. Most interesting are posters who take it to the extreme – acknowledge Israeli success but use it to double down: so if they are so powerful, it means that they allowed oct 7 on purpose to have a reason to kill people … this is how far one can get with a mindset of keeping your position despite the facts.

    Mark Matson, a financial expert and author of
    Experiencing the American Dream,
    shared with Breitbart News his strong views on how
    Vice President Kamala Harris’s policies could jeopardize
    the American Dream, calling them a “destroyer” of that ideal.
    ….
    He referred to a Wall Street Journal study
    that defines key components of the American Dream,
    such as: home ownership, starting a family and raising children,
    sending children to college, and enjoying a secure retirement.

    “All of these things became more difficult under this
    [Kamala Harris] administration,” [Mark] Matson remarked.

    Matson further criticized [Kamala] Harris’s policy proposals,
    including higher taxes, price controls, and increased regulations,
    all of which he believes stand in opposition to the American Dream.

    “These policies,” [Mark]Matson declared, “are an American dream destroyer.”

    The NY Post Editorial Board said this:

    If President Biden had any decency, he’d limit his United Nations
    speech Tuesday to two words: “I’m sorry”.

    Kamala Harris should echo that.

    [President Barack] Obama Defense Secretary Robert Gates
    once warned (all too rightly) that Biden had been
    “wrong on nearly every major foreign-policy and
    national-security issue over the past four decades.”

    Over the past four years, Joe and Kam [Kamala Harris]
    have continued that pattern, leaving the world
    facing its most perilous threats in decades.

    Start with the disastrous bugout [disorganized retreat]
    from Afghanistan, executed in blatant defiance of every
    military adviser and the plan left in place by the Trump team.

    That bugout enabled the Taliban to triumphantly retake control
    of the country, humiliating America and seizing billions
    in weaponry our forces left behind —
    erasing all the progress made in 20 years of fighting.

    Worse, it sent the message that Washington can’t be trusted
    as an ally, that aggressors could get away with almost anything.

    And [Kamala] Harris brags that
    she was the “last person in the room,”
    backing Biden made when he made that fatal decision.

    It was downhill from there:

    [1] Russia seized the opportunity to launch a fresh invasion
    of Ukraine as Biden signaled that, as a “minor incursion,”
    would be OK; our president then slow-walked
    aid and tied Kyiv’s hands on the use of US weapons.

    [2] Iran ramped up its drive for nukes as Harris-Biden
    sucked up to the regime, ending key Trump-era sanctions
    that had strangled the Iranian economy
    and sending billions to Islamic Republic outright.

    [3] Its cashflow restored, Tehran upped its funding of
    terror groups, and helped Hamas plan and launch the
    October 7 [2023] massacre, triggering the Gaza war.

    [4] Iran also boosted the Houthis, who have now
    shut down the Red Sea to Western shipping.

    [5] And Hezbollah, which has fired nearly 9,000 rockets
    and drones at Israel since October 7 [2023]
    and is now threatening an all-out war.

    [6] China, meanwhile, has grown increasingly aggressive,
    harassing neighbors like the Philippines and Taiwan,
    militarizing islands in the South China Sea
    and aiming to control shipping lanes.

    Beijing has also reasserted its intention to
    reclaim Taiwan soon — by force, if necessary.

    [7] To make up for their self-destructive war on US oil,
    and thinking dictator Nicholas Maduro would allow
    a fair election, Harris and Biden lifted oil sanctions on Venezuela
    — only to see Maduro steal this year’s election.

    [8] [Joe] Biden and Border Czar [Kamala] Harris let in
    millions of barely vetted migrants, overwhelming cities
    and creating new crime and terror threats.

    PERSONAL NOTE: Between 11,000,000 and 30,000,000 ILLEGAL ALIENS!!

    [9] One of the scariest developments: the alignment of Iran,
    China, Russia and North Korea against the West — even as
    Team Harris-Biden has shrunk the US military
    and focused it more on pronouns, less on fighting enemies.

    Now the world’s on the brink of an all-out war
    in the Middle East that could well rope in America.

    And another if Russia defeats Ukraine and
    then looks to expand its hegemony further.

    And still another when China makes a play for Taiwan.

    “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f – – – things up,”
    President Barack Obama reportedly warned years ago.

    Sadly, America’s voters did just that in 2020,
    and now the entire free world is paying the price.

    Dear Yechiell,

    Thank you for reading my comments.

    You said: “NY Post is a MAGA outlet and rag”.

    Could you please tell us which newspapers
    you would consider to be reliable sources of information?

    Please, please, PLEASE, don’t say “The New York Times”,
    which has a well documented relentless hostility toward Israel,
    always finding fault with Israel, and always blaming Israel,
    always making Israel look like the wicked cruel villain,
    and always making Israel’s genocidal terrorist enemies
    look like innocent victims.

    Even worse. much of the neo-Marxist news media
    follows the wicked leadership of The New York Times.

    Thank you for reading this message,
    and I wish you only good decrees on Rosh HaShanah,
    and a very easy fast on Yom Kippur.

    Sincerely,

    How Freedom Has Faded Under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris
    =========================================

    President Biden will address the United Nations on Tuesday,
    in what is likely to be his last big moment on the world stage.
    A President’s foreign-policy legacy typically outlasts his term,
    so it’s worth taking a step back and considering
    the world Mr. Biden will leave his successor.

    It is a far more dangerous world than Mr. Biden inherited, and far less congenial for U.S. interests, human freedom and democracy. The latter is tragically ironic since the President has made the global contest between democracy and authoritarians an abiding theme. Authoritarians have advanced on his watch in every part of the world—Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and even the Americas.

    ***
    • Mr. Biden’s chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan was his single most damaging decision, and it has led to cascading trouble. The Taliban control the country and are reimposing feudal Islamist rule. His withdrawal has done more harm to more women than anything in decades, while jihadists have revived their terror sanctuary.

    • More damaging is the message his withdrawal sent to adversaries about American will and retreat.
    The credibility of U.S. deterrence collapsed. Mr. Biden tried to appease Vladimir Putin by blessing the Nord Stream 2 pipeline and refusing to arm Ukraine. Mr. Putin concluded he could invade Ukraine at limited cost, especially after Mr. Biden blurted out that a “minor incursion” might not elicit the same Western opposition.

    • After Kyiv bravely resisted, Mr. Biden sent weapons, but too little and too delayed at every stage of the war. Even now, after 31 months and 100,000 or more dead, Mr. Biden dithers over letting Ukraine use long-range ATACMS against targets inside Russia.

    • His record in the Middle East is worse. Rather than build on the Abraham Accords he inherited, he tried to ostracize Saudi Arabia and he banned offensive weapons to fight the Houthis. From the start he courted the mullahs in Iran to renew the 2015 nuclear accord that had enriched Iran before Donald Trump withdrew.
    He refused to enforce oil sanctions, even as Iran spread mayhem through its proxy militias.

    • The U.S. was caught flat-footed when Hamas, aided by Iran, invaded Israel and massacred 1,200 innocents.
    His national-security adviser, Jake Sullivan, had to edit an online version of a Foreign Affairs essay already published boasting that “the region is quieter than it has been for decades.”

    Here’s how quiet: Our foremost regional ally [Israel] is now at war on multiple fronts.
    Israel’s defensive campaign in Gaza isn’t finished and a new and perhaps bloodier fight is unfolding with Hezbollah.
    The Houthis have all but shut down Western commercial shipping around the Red Sea,
    while Mr. Biden makes U.S. naval commanders play whack-a-missile.

    • Meanwhile, Iran marches undeterred to becoming a nuclear power.
    The Biden Administration mouths pieties that this is unacceptable, but its every action suggests it believes a nuclear Iran is inevitable and trying to stop it is too risky. When Iran goes nuclear, the security calculus in the world will turn upside down.

    • Mr. Biden’s record in the Asia-Pacific is marginally better, at least diplomatically.
    He has strengthened U.S. alliances against China, especially with Australia, Japan and the Philippines.
    The Aukus defense deal is important, as is Japan’s move toward closer military integration with the U.S.

    • Yet diplomacy has not been matched by hard power.
    The U.S. isn’t building enough submarines to meet its Aukus commitment and U.S. needs.
    American bases lack adequate air defenses and long-range missiles to defeat a Chinese invasion of Taiwan.
    State Department foot-stomping hasn’t stopped Chinese harassment of Philippine ships.

    • Closer to home, Venezuela’s dictator has predictably stolen another election,
    exposing the Biden Administration’s deal to ease oil sanctions as naive.

    • Mexico is tilting in an authoritarian direction without U.S. protest.

    • Cuba continues to spread [Socialist] revolution wherever it can.
    The resulting human suffering reaches America in the flood of migrants
    that now burden our cities, from Manhattan to Springfield, Ohio.

    • Most ominous is the collaboration of these menacing regional powers
    into a new anti-Western axis. Iran supplies missiles and drones to Moscow,
    which may be supplying nuclear know-how to Tehran.
    China is aiding Moscow, which now joins Beijing in naval maneuvers.
    North Korea also arms Moscow while being protected by China
    from United Nations sanctions it once voted for.

    ***
    • All of this and more adds up to the worst decline in world order, and the largest decline in U.S. influence, since the 1930s.

    Yet Mr. Biden continues to speak and act as if he’s presided over
    an era of spreading peace and prosperity.
    He has proposed a cut in real defense spending each year of his Presidency,
    which may be his greatest abdication.

    Addressing this gathering storm will be difficult and dangerous.
    The first task will be restoring U.S. deterrence, which will require
    more hard power and political will.

    Whoever wins the White House will have to abandon
    the failed policies of the Biden years, lest we end up
    careening into a global conflict with catastrophic consequences.

    “let in

    The law REQUIRES that anyone showing up at a port of entry or who is already in the US who isn’t already a US citizen who asks for asylum AUTOMATICALLY gets a visa. The only exceptions are that you have to apply within a year or your arrival and not have entered from Canada. Vetting is actually illegal under current law. But in fact these asylum applicants rarely commit crimes, unlike 34x convicted felon Trump and all his cronies whom he pardoned, such as Michael Flynn, the illegal unregistered foreign agent for Erdoğan. They know that committing a felony gets you deported.

    The Lankford bill would have put limits on this and solved most of the problems but Trump knew that if the border crisis got addressed he would no longer be able to foment hatred and blood libels against migrants, so he ordered the Republicans to kill their own plan.

    Famed attorney Alan Dershowitz has announced his departure
    from the Democratic Party following what he called the
    “most anti-Jewish, anti-Israel, anti-Zionist convention” he has experienced.

    The lawyer and Harvard Law professor emeritus made the announcement
    during an appearance on the Talkline With Zev Brenner podcast
    shortly after the Democratic National Convention,
    which took place in Chicago from August 19 to August 22.
    ….
    During his interview with radio host Zev Brenner,
    Dershowitz said: “I am no longer a Democrat. I am an independent.”
    He added, “A lot of things pushed me in that direction,”
    citing Vice President Kamala Harris’ decision not to preside
    over Netanyahu’s address to a joint session of Congress
    in July and rhetoric at the Democratic National Convention.

    “I was disgusted at the Democratic National Convention.
    Absolutely disgusted,” he said.

    Dershowitz continued: “They had more anti-Jewish,
    anti-Zionist people who were speaking, starting with
    [Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]—a miserable anti-Zionist bigot.

    “Then, of course, they had [Senator Elizabeth] Warren,
    who is one of the most anti-Jewish people in the Senate.
    Then they had Bernie Sanders, one of the most anti-Jewish people in the Senate.”
    ….
    The lawyer [Alan Dershowitz] also said that had Pennsylvania Governor
    Josh Shapiro not been Jewish, he likely would have been chosen
    as [Kamala] Harris’ running mate.
    “I understand that if his name were John Sheppard, not Josh Shapiro,
    he would have been the democratic nominee,” he said.

    Israel Kasnett wrote this in Jewish News Syndicate:

    Israel today finds itself standing increasingly alone as the world
    rejects its right to defend itself against genocidal enemies.

    And as the United States heads to elections in November,
    Israelis are worried that Vice President and Democratic
    presidential nominee Kamala Harris is demonstrating
    less support for Israel and more sympathy
    for Palestinians and their supporters.

    For instance, she [Kamala Harris] has consistently tried to tie Israel’s hands,
    calling for the Jewish state to end its war against Hamas, and refused
    to attend Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to Congress in July.

    According to Michael Rubin, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute,
    an administration led by [Kamala] Harris
    “is likely to be the most hostile U.S. administration to Israel”
    since U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower’s first term in 1953.

    “Even if [Kamala] Harris is neutral on Israel, her progressive base
    is out for blood and, specifically, Israeli blood,” he told JNS.

    As the Biden administration appeases Iran, the Islamic regime attacks Israel
    directly and through proxies in Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Lebanon and Gaza.

    Every time Israel went to war against Hamas in Gaza, in 2008-09,
    2012, 2014 and 2021, the international community,
    including the Obama administration, forced Israel to stop fighting.

    After the horrific October 7 [2023] massacre, Israel now aims
    to destroy Hamas, and yet again, the international community,
    including the Biden administration, is trying to save Hamas.

    Likewise, when Hezbollah launched an unprovoked war against Israel
    in 2006, the international community forced a ceasefire after Israel attacked.

    Even before Israel assassinated Hezbollah leader and arch-terrorist
    Hassan Nasrallah on Friday, the international community,
    including the Biden administration,
    was working hard to achieve a ceasefire to save Hezbollah.

    Israel is never allowed to win.

    So when [Kamala] Harris was asked how she would broker a deal
    to end the war between Israel and Hamas, she said she would
    continue to work on a two-state solution “around the clock.”

    This is a major red flag. The Palestinians have made it clear
    numerous times since 1947 that they are NOT interested
    in a two-state solution and prefer to destroy Israel instead.

    What Harris means then is that she does not want Israel to achieve victory.

    Instead, she wants to give Palestinians a state as a prize for
    launching endless terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians
    for decades instead of pursuing the establishment
    of their own state through peaceful means…..

    There were a number of posters who posted strong pro-Russian bias and sudden knowledge of Ukrainian history with words picked up from translated Soviet textbooks. I even saw such messages in random divrei Torah from established Rabbis, like mentioning memoirs describing “ukrainian nazis” who were prosecuting someone in Nazi camps … Hard to say though – whether a poster is a real russian troll paid in rubles as described in the indictment you referred to, or a result of this virus propagating through the community on- and off-line. It might be also that we notice such things sharper than in usual times.

    For example, I search for Bandera in CR – there are only 3 mentions, one by a current poster, and the other two have same couple of sentences in a row in different months of 2022. I doubt that this is part of a campaign. Most likely, they both copied these sentences without attribution from something that google helped them find.

    Wouldn’t change a thing…

    Vice President Kamala Harris raised eyebrows on Tuesday
    when she told the ladies of The View that she
    wouldn’t have done anything different than Joe Biden.

    Not the border. Not Afghanistan. Nothing.
    It’s been a perfect administration, according to Kamala.

    “We’re obviously two different people,” [Kamala] Harris said,
    answering a question from co-host Sunny Hostin about
    what the biggest “specific” difference would be between
    a potential [Kamala] Harris presidency and a [Joe] Biden presidency.
    “One of the issues I’m focused on is what we do with home healthcare.”

    “If anything, would you have done something differently than
    President Biden during the past four years?” Hostin followed up.

    Harris responded, “There is not a thing that comes to mind.”

    “I’ve been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact,” she added.

    This short article is from Yehuda Dov for VINNews (dot) com:

    Demonstrating a major lack of journalistic integrity,
    CBS intentionally doctored a “60 minutes” interview with Kamala Harris,
    editing out her garbled and incomprehensible answer to a question
    about Israel with a completely different answer to the version that aired.
    The news outlet has come under strong criticism, with the Trump campaign
    demanding that CBS release the original transcript of the interview.

    When asked by host Bill Whitaker why it seemed like Israeli Prime Minister
    Benjamin Netanyahu wasn’t listening to the United States
    regarding the war in Lebanon and his response
    to the Iran attack, [Kamala] Harris originally replied:

    Well Bill, the work that we have done has resulted
    in a number of movements in that region by Israel that
    were very much prompted by, or a result of, many things,
    including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region
    .”

    After the clip received backlash over Kamala’s rambling
    and unclear answer, CBS inserted a totally different sentence
    in the version that aired, a sentence said earlier in the interview:

    We are not going to stop pursuing what is necessary
    for the United States to be clear about
    where we stand on the need for this war to end
    .”

    Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded,
    stating that “On Sunday, 60 Minutes teased Kamala’s
    highly-anticipated sit-down interview with one of her worst word salads to date,
    which received significant criticism on social media.
    During the full interview on Monday evening, the word salad
    was deceptively edited to lessen Kamala’s idiotic response.”

    “Why did 60 Minutes choose not to air Kamala’s
    full word salad, and what else did they choose not to air?” she asked.
    “The American people deserve the full, unedited transcript from
    Kamala’s sit-down interview. We call upon 60 Minutes and CBS to release it.”

    Other journalists and social media influencers called out
    60 Minutes for its behavior, with Geiger Capital stressing:

    Mixing and matching questions and answers.
    This isn’t journalism. It’s fraud
    .”

    Newsweek Editor-in-Chief Josh Hammer called the interview
    a “word-turd sandwich” and blasted [Kamala] Harris for purportedly
    standing with Israel but not with Netanyahu.

    Investor Bill Ackman questioned: “how could @60Minutes’ manipulation
    occur without the consent of @KamalaHarris? Let’s not forget she is
    the Vice President of the United States and she is being asked
    about our foreign policy in the Middle East and our relationship
    with the leader of our principal ally in the region.

    “Thinking about this more, the only plausible explanation is that
    the Vice President herself and/or her administration found that
    her original answer, which implied that Israel’s actions in
    the region were a direct result of the Biden/Harris policy,
    would harm her campaign and would therefore
    need to be expurgated from the public record.

    “In order to execute such a violation of journalistic ethics,
    I would expect that CBS News CEO Wendy McMahon and possibly
    Shari Redstone herself would have had to approve the manipulated video.

    This is a story worthy of investigative journalism from real journalists.
    Where are they? Where are the whistleblowers?
    Or are all of them so ideologically compromised that they are prepared
    to sacrifice the truth and their integrity in an effort to elect their favored candidate
    ?”

    The fraud committed by 60 Minutes is far from unique.

    They will do ANYTHING to help destroy Democracy and The Constitution
    and The Bill of Rights, and replace those things with a one-party
    Socialist dictatorship that demands 100% compliance with all of its beliefs
    and relentlessly micromanages the lives of all Americans;
    a one-party Socialist dictatorship in which the Democratic Party
    is the ONLY tolerated party and Islam is the ONLY tolerated religion;
    a one-party Socialist dictatorship that imitates the Chinese Communist Party

    Professor Thane Rosenbaum wrote this
    for The Los Angeles Jewish Journal:

    “The past eight years have been one slow death march of
    the Democratic Party’s abandonment of its Jewish voting bloc.”

    Not that my political affiliation is any of your business,
    but I thought I might share with you that after 46 years
    as a die-hard Democrat, I have alerted the New York State
    Board of Elections that I am now, officially, an Independent.

    Honestly, I couldn’t take it anymore.
    My options, as a voter, are now more open than ever.

    The past eight years have been one slow death march of
    the Democratic Party’s abandonment of its Jewish voting bloc.
    It coincided with a descent into an illiberal, ahistorical and
    morally misguided adherence to identity politics,
    intersectionality, CRT, DEI, anti-colonialism,
    and the social upheavals wrought by “political correctness.”

    It has led to a wide assortment of pathologies, ranging from
    restrictions on free speech and open inquiry to the debasement
    of our immigration laws, the bedlam on our streets and college campuses,
    the desertion of foreign allies, the brainwashing of our youth,
    the wrecking of our economy, the upending of gender and sexual categories,
    and an appalling anti-Americanism that I surely have not seen in my lifetime.

    Party leaders have taken for granted that Jewish Republicans
    are an anathema, and people like me, who identify with 19th-century liberalism,
    have nowhere else to go. Believing that there is no risk of flight,
    they have consigned Jewish -Americans to a political party
    allied with those who would wipe Israel from the map
    (if these domestic haters could only find it on a map).

    Those presumptions may turn out to be false.
    Jewish affiliation with Republican politics has already grown,
    and stands at 29%—even before some of the recent events
    that have alienated Jewish Democrats.
    And while there’s no actual party for Americans who eschew
    the two-party system altogether, I do not believe
    I will be alone this election as an unaffiliated voter.

    To remain with the Democratic ticket would make me feel like a real donkey.
    I can live without an animal mascot representing independent voters
    (I suggest one that naturally stands apart from the herd).
    And I have reconciled myself to knowing that in 2022,
    New York banned any political party wishing to refer to itself as Independent.

    …The [Democratic] Party has fast become a home for left-wing zealots
    for whom nothing matters more than pronoun usage, open borders,
    and emptying our prisons of overrepresented minorities.

    The Democrats finally became the party that progressives and socialists
    wanted in electing Barack Obama. It was unfeasible for him,
    at the time, to implement the political transformation
    he had hoped his administration would bring. (Yes, I voted for him twice,
    even as I feared the generational damage it might inflict.)

    Ironically, it was his politically more moderate vice president, Joe Biden,
    who would eventually accede to the Oval Office and take America
    in a direction that would make Bill Ayers,
    Pastor Jeremiah Wright and Reverend Louis Farrakhan proud.

    For me, the breaking point came with Joe Biden’s shameful CNN interview
    where he made clear that the United States would not support
    Israel’s incursion into Rafah to route
    the remaining Hamas terrorists responsible for 10/7.

    Let me get this straight: The United States devoted a decade to
    hunting down and assassinating Osama bin Laden,
    killing 250,000 Afghani and Iraqi civilians along the way.
    No condemning U.N. resolutions. No protests. No International
    Court of Justice proceedings. All throughout America’s War on Terror,
    Israel provided necessary intelligence and regional backup,
    and erected a 9/11 memorial —t he only one outside
    the United States listing the names of all victims.

    Yet, the Biden administration is withholding from Israel the necessary
    weaponry (already earmarked by Congress) with which to conduct
    its wholly justified military operations? Israel does not require Biden’s blessing.
    And the precision of the Rafah campaign will now be less precise.

    Curiously, the president repeatedly acknowledged that 10/7 was
    an unprovoked attack for which Israel has a moral and legal right of self-defense,
    and that Hamas presents an existential threat that must be eradicated.
    Biden’s “ironclad” commitment to Israel has already gone limp.
    Apparently, unlike the United States, Israel must be denied
    its moral obligation to bring justice to its people and security to its borders.
    It can defend against missiles, but not dismantle them at the source.

    Biden’s actions have given comfort to Hamas and its patron, Iran.
    Why should Hamas return hostages (some, Americans),
    if Biden is singularly focused on constraining Israeli military offenses?

    Moreover, Biden just gave a shout-out to those ignorant college students
    and their Jew-hating, anti-American professors. Sorry, “Genocide Joe,”
    asserting your mojo and cultivating a youthful
    antisemitic constituency won’t help you come November.

    For reasons only rabid progressives can explain, Palestinians,
    who are more like Hamas accomplices than true civilians,
    are more precious than the world’s other civilians.
    Is it because Jews aren’t permitted to win wars,
    especially against brown-skinned people?
    The Jewish state must always agree to ceasefires,
    perform humanitarian acts while fighting in self-defense, and sue for peace.

    This betrayal has little to do with moral equivocation
    and everything to do with local politics. Biden will, apparently,
    do or say anything to woo the 600,000 Muslim voters of Michigan,
    and stay within the good graces of that
    dreadful Detroit Motown act, Bernie Sanders and the Squad.

    Is it worth it, this backstabbing of Jewish-Americans, an important
    minority reliably loyal to the Democratic Party? Always true blue,
    as if the Party had nominated Moses as its standard bearer
    and Anne Frank as his running mate. The progressive perfidy
    is even more heartbreaking. Jews stood at the forefront of
    nearly every movement of social activism in the United States,
    from labor unions to civil liberties, feminism, civil rights, and gay rights.

    Apparently, the reward for all those years of solidarity has been exclusion and antisemitism.

    I am under no illusion that my departure from the Party will matter to anyone.
    After all, jettisoning Jewish white males is one of the objectives
    of its racial identity and rigid orthodoxy.
    Should moderates ever reclaim control from the Marxists and Islamists, give me a call.

    Is there anything else he needs to know?

    In the end, Joe Biden picked the Muslims of Michigan over moral clarity,
    a coherent foreign policy, and love of country. Yes, he’s increasingly addled.
    But he well knows that Jewish-Americans, or Jewish-Israelis,
    are highly unlikely to ever burn an American flag and shout, “Death to America!”

    The National Security advisor to Kamala Harris, Philip Gordon, worked closely with the Iranian mole Ariane Tabatabai to promote appeasement of Iran.

    Hamas, a proxy for Iran, execute the Simchas Torah pogrom very soon after the Biden administration (with Kamala Harris’ agreement) publicly announced that they were on the verge of negotiating a peace treaty with Saudi Arabia.

    Jared Kushner pointed out that when he negotiated a peace treaty between Israel and the UAE he kept it top secret until after it was a done done for precidely this reason, because Iran gets its power from inciting war.

    This means that the Biden administration caused the Simchas Torah pogrom.

    Professor Thane Rosenbaum wrote this
    for The Los Angeles Jewish Journal:

    …after 46 years as a die-hard Democrat, I have alerted the NYS
    Board of Elections that I am now, officially, an Independent.

    The past eight years have been one slow death march of
    the Democratic Party’s abandonment of its Jewish voting bloc.
    It coincided with a descent into an illiberal, ahistorical and
    morally misguided adherence to identity politics,
    intersectionality, CRT, DEI, anti-colonialism,
    and the social upheavals wrought by “political correctness.”

    It has led to a wide assortment of pathologies, ranging from
    restrictions on free speech and open inquiry to the debasement
    of our immigration laws, the bedlam on our streets and college campuses,
    the desertion of foreign allies, the brainwashing of our youth,
    the wrecking of our economy, the upending of gender and sexual categories,
    and an appalling anti-Americanism that I surely have not seen in my lifetime.

    …The [Democratic] Party has fast become a home for left-wing zealots
    for whom nothing matters more than pronoun usage, open borders,
    and emptying our prisons of over-represented minorities.

    News Reporter Josh Christenson of The New York Post said:

    “Vice President Kamala Harris’ tax proposal would cost the US nearly 800,000 jobs,
    roughly twice as many as former President Donald Trump’s plan,
    according to a recent analysis.”

    “The nonpartisan Tax Foundation think tank estimated that Harris’ proposals
    would shrink the American long-run GDP by 2% and
    reduce wages by 1.2%, while lowering employment by roughly 786,000 jobs.”
    ….
    “At least 177,000 jobs would be lost under a Harris administration just by
    raising the net investment income tax rate from 3.8% to 5%
    and shifting the Medicare tax rate up to the same percentage.”

    “Another 131,000 jobs would vanish under the expansion of the earned income tax credit,”

    “Former Israeli ambassador to the United States Michael Oren
    on Sunday called for the White House to state unequivocally
    that Jerusalem is not committing genocide in the Gaza Strip,
    after U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris appeared to equivocate on the issue.

    The Democratic nominee for president [Kamala Harris] appeared to
    suggest at a campaign event in Milwaukee that the Jewish state
    was committing genocide, in an incident involving an anti-Israel heckler.”
