The Most DEVASTATING Rebuttal Yet To The Israel Narrative; The Israelites ARE the indigenous people there!

"I will establish my everlasting covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come ... The whole land of Canaan, where you now reside as a foreigner, I will give as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you; and I will be their G‑d." Chabad.org 

Erin Molan   "For years, the world has heard the same accusations against Israel: apartheid, genocide, colonization and more. But what happens when a U.S. Federal Judge actually examines the evidence?

"In this powerful conversation, Erin Molan sits down with Judge Roy Altman, author of *Israel On Trial*, to break down some of the biggest claims surrounding Israel, the media narrative, international law, history, and the facts many refuse to discuss openly. "Whether you agree or disagree, this is one of the most important conversations we’ve had on the show."

What Is the Jewish Claim to the Land? - Chabad.org ;

. . . The Divine Promise 

"The Jewish people's connection to the Land of Israel begins with the biblical Patriarch Abraham approximately 4,000 years ago. In the Torah, G‑d commands Abraham to leave his homeland and migrate to the Land of Canaan.2 G‑d promises to give the Land to Abraham and his descendants as an eternal inheritance.3 Once Abraham arrives in the Holy Land, G‑d tells him:4

Look around, to the north and south, to the east and west. All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever.

G‑d reaffirms this promise declaring:5

I have given this land to your descendants, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates — the land of the Kenites, Kenizzites, Kadmonites, Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaites, Amorites, Canaanites, Girgashites, and Jebusites.

"G‑d further emphasizes the eternal and unconditional nature of this promise in the Covenant Between the Parts (Bris Bein HaBesarim), promising:6 . . . More...

5 graduation speeches with truly helpful tips for living your life

 Maggie Penman  

"A catastrophe is an opportunity," Livingston said. "Your purpose doesn't often reveal itself in a moment of comfort or convenience. Your purpose shows up when the sky is falling down."

"Donovan Livingston knew the stakes were high this year when he was asked to deliver a commencement address at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he teaches.

"Ten years ago, he was the student speaker at his graduation from Harvard's Graduate School of Education. The speech went viral, inspiring millions of people around the world — and changed his life.

"He told the audience a decade ago that he once was the kid who never sat still in class.

"'I was in the seventh grade, when Ms. Parker told me, ‘Donovan, we can put all of your excess energy to good use,'" he said.

"He delivered that speech as an impassioned spoken word poem about the promise of education as an "equalizer" and how it falls short for many students. "Injustice is telling them education is the key while you continue to change the locks," he told his graduating class.

"Livingston said the speech was about finding and embracing individual strengths.

"'I've been the black hole in a classroom for far too long, absorbing everything, without allowing my light escape," he said in his poem. "But those days are done. I belong among the stars. And so do you."

"The success of that speech led to a book, media coverage and international acclaim.

"'I had no idea it would blow up the way it did. But I'm grateful that folks were paying attention," Livingston told The Washington Post this week.

"Like Livingston's speech, every year, graduation speeches circulate on social media, offering wisdom, advice and inspiration.

"We spent a week watching graduation speeches and pulling out some of the best ideas they have to offer. Here are some of our favorite pieces of advice." . . . More...

The WNBA doesn't market--Caitlin Clark?! Why would the WNBA refuse to market its most revenue-producing talent?

 Mike McDaniel 

. . . "Could the resentment and the assaults be due to anti-white racism and the fact that Clark isn’t a lesbian? Clark’s presence in the league has dramatically raised the salaries of every player and equally dramatically increased the exposure of women’s professional basketball, yet the league and her own team seem determined to undermine her and, in so doing, undermine women’s basketball.

. . . "Outkick’s Clay Travis is right. This is marketing 101. You bring fans into the stands by marketing your stars, or in this case, the star, the young woman who has single-handedly made the WNBA a sort of going concern.

"And how has the League treated her? They’ve all but openly encouraged not fouls, but assaults on Caitlin Clark, which have resulted in multiple injuries, and now her own team is snubbing their number one draw—it’s not even close—in their marketing. That doesn’t mean you never feature other players, just that you have a clear, and fiscally responsible, sense of who puts posteriors in the stands.

And how did the featured Raven Johnson do? Not well:

Thrust into the spotlight as the unexpected "poster child" for the Fever in the WNBA’s promotional rollout, Johnson’s on-court production miserably failed to match her sudden marketing billing.

In 17 minutes of action off the bench, Johnson failed to register a single point, dropping a giant goose egg on the stat sheet.

While her defensive energy contributed to the team’s depth, a scoreless night highlighted the utter absurdity of the league elevating a backup guard over the most prolific scorer in basketball history, especially on a night when the team was already missing its star center.

"That’s right.  The Fever, missing its star center, Clark picked up some of the rebounding slack.

"The WNBA and Indiana Fever don’t have to listen to me. I’m not a noted and read sports writer, and particularly not a fan of women’s basketball, but I do pay attention to cultural issues, and this sort of treatment of a woman who is already playing a major role in the history of women’s sports is worth examining." . . .More...

"Critical thinking is not merely a buzzword. It is an essential tool that children must learn at an early age."

From Tying Shoes to Artificial Intelligence - Eileen F. Toplansky

"In fact, states are at long last now reintroducing cursive handwriting because it appears to boost brain development, reading comprehension, and fine motor skills. As of 2026, New Jersey districts require cursive handwriting instruction."

. . . "Of particular note is the finding that students who “used ChatGPT as a study aid retained significantly less knowledge 45 days after instruction than students who studied without it (Barcaui, 2025). Thus, short-term performance gains masked long-term learning deficits. 

"So, from tying shoes to the exponential growth of AI, we need to consider how well we are creating critical thinkers. In far too many instances, AI actually shortcuts the critical learning process, i.e., brainstorming, drafting, revising, justifying.

"If in the learning process, AI generates the product, the student loses the important steps of knowledge attainment because the effort has been removed as a consequence of the machines doing the work.

"Also, as Eng points out “[i]t is also worth remembering that AI developers have profit motives that have nothing to do with improving student learning. The enthusiasm of technology companies should not be mistaken for evidence of pedagogical effectiveness.”

"Children need to be exposed to the steps of learning. Instead, we are creating mental passivity and cognitive apathy. Passive acceptance without active thought creates boredom, which, in turn, creates a lack of desire to engage mentally.

"Critical Thinking is not merely a buzzword. It is an essential tool that children must learn at an early age. In the digital age, far too much is being done by machines.

Children deserve the right to discern for themselves; they need the challenge of discovery and the exhilaration of accomplishment.

"How do we create a balance? Are we cheating the children in our quest for increased technology?"

Wacky birds whack Cornyn

Don Surber   

"The media is lying when it frames the issue as Trump’s revenge against perceived enemies. This is MAGA voters flushing the commode. The electorate has had it with politicians who promise voters everything but give them Dem Lite."

. . . "Well, he is. The party has nominated Trump for president three consecutive times. In 2016, he ran on building the wall; Cornyn and company blocked him. In 2024, Trump ran on deportations; Cornyn and company won’t fund it.

"The Kool-Aid swilling media spin on Republicans choosing Paxton over Cornyn is this will elect Democrat James Talarico to the Senate.

"On CNN, Scott Jennings and Xochitl Hinojosa traded words.

HINOJOSA: Talarico is well funded. Talarico will continue to raise money, but it’s interesting to me that now Republicans have to worry about deep red Texas because they have a flawed candidate who does not know how to raise. And you’re now seeing that currently play out.
JENNINGS: All these analysis of this race and sort of the differences between what a Cornyn or a Paxton would look like here. I’m thinking about the differences between Talarico and LITERALLY every other Texan.

I don’t know any Texans who believe in six genders other than Talarico. Don’t know any Texans who said it’s immoral to eat meat other than Talarico. Don’t know any Texans who walk around saying things you know God is non-binary. You all are both Texans. Do you know ANY other Texan who even talks like that?

Issues aside, who says these things out loud? When this gets adjudicated, all that money coming in from California and New York, it will be well spent in Texas.

"Establishment Republicans see Trump and his voters—wacky birds as John McCain called them—as a threat to their very existence.

Then they get fraudulent benefits, and scammers bilk the taxpayers out of huge sums of money providing non-services to non-autistic children.

"Today's arrests mark the largest autism fraud bust in American history," said HHS Secretary Robert F.

Karen Bass: Palisades Fire Victim Spencer Pratt ‘Exploiting the Grief’ of Palisades Fire Victims

Karen Bass: Spencer Pratt 'Exploiting the Grief' of Palisades Fire  

. . . "During an appearance on MSNOW with Katie Phang, Bass called Pratt “reprehensible,” accusing him of exploiting others’ grief, seemingly unaware of the very grief he personally experienced when his home burned down along with thousands of others in his neighborhood.

“Honestly, before this, I had never even heard of Spencer Pratt,” the mayor said.

“But the thing I am concerned about is that I feel like he’s exploiting the grief of people in the Palisades. And I think that’s reprehensible. That’s the main thing. And I think that he is about his own celebrity, he’s famous now again,” she added.

Bass even recommended that Pratt take a “basics civics course,” blaming the wildfires on “climate change.”

“He could benefit by a basic civics course, because I don’t think he understands the basics of how any government works,” she said. “For me, these fires, it was the worst natural disaster that we experienced in our city. At the root of it, we have to get adjusted to, just like everybody else in the nation, to different weather experiences because of climate change.” . . .

Bill Maher throws his support behind Trump's war in Iran as he calls conflict 'a great endeavor'

 See how quickly Maher's leftist friends turn.

"Frequent Trump-critic Bill Maher surprised his fans as he threw his support behind the president's war in Iran. 

"The comedian, 70, dubbed the Middle East conflict a 'great thing' in the latest episode of his Club Random podcast, after songwriter Paul Anka said he believed Trump needs to find an 'off ramp' from the war. 

Maher agreed that the war was not an 'easy thing' but argued that if Trump is able to unseat Iran's regime, it could turn into a 'great endeavor.' 

'If they get rid of that horrible, fascist theocracy, like the worst of all worlds as a government [which] f***ed up the Middle East constantly, just the biggest troublemakers,' Maher said, as he passed a marijuana joint to Anka. 

The talk show host said despite polls showing a growing number of Americans are upset with US casualties in the war, he believes it is 'unrealistic to ever expect any great endeavor not to cost lives.'

'So, it's fine with me if this is where it stays, as far as damage done,' Maher continued. 'The Civil War was a great endeavor, and it cost 600,000 lives.

'If it could transform the Middle East, which has been one of our biggest problems in my entire life. 

'And recognize that Israel is our most natural ally. It could be a great thing.'  . .  More...

Brianna Lyman: Americans Don't Want Lectures From Immoral Entertainers

 The Federalist

“People are so sick and tired of people like Harrison Ford … lecturing us. He literally says, ‘Hey, my generation created a bunch of problems, but it’s up to you to fix it.’ How about this? Next time you go to one of your fancy parties where people fly in on their private jets, you lecture your fellow actors about what they should and shouldn’t do,” The Federalist’s Brianna Lyman said on Gutfeld! “And the other thing is [these actors] virtue signal all the time. And not one of them buy what they sell.”

“I want to go back to the time when like Elvis — I think it was 1972, maybe — someone [asked him]: ‘What do you think about the Vietnam war?’ And [Elvis] goes, ‘Ma’am, I’m just an entertainer.’ Michael Jordan said ‘Republicans buy sneakers too,’ and Billy Bob Thornton recently said, ‘Don’t ask me about politics, I’m an entertainer.’ Let’s go back to where people know their lane and stay in their lane.”  More...

States Toughen Penalties for Disrupting Religious Services

  American Greatness

Civil liberties groups and some Democrats have criticized the laws as potential violations of free speech rights.

The old, raised fist for Don Lemon meme

 "States across the country are beginning to impose tougher criminal penalties on protesters who disrupt church services and other religious gatherings following a high-profile demonstration inside a Minnesota church earlier this year.

"At least four states have approved new laws this year aimed at protecting worship services from disruptions, while similar legislation has been introduced in several other states and in Congress.

"Supporters of the measures say the laws are needed as churches and synagogues remain on heightened alert following years of violence and politically charged confrontations targeting religious institutions. They say existing trespassing laws are insufficient to deter increasingly aggressive protests.

Lemon's aid

"'People should go to church to be able to sit in peace, worship as they please, without having to worry about people coming in and harassing them,” Mark Harris said after co-sponsoring legislation in Idaho. “I think the thing that happened in Minnesota was kind of a shock to some of us, that churches would be used as a place to berate people.”

"New laws have already been enacted in Idaho, Louisiana and Oklahoma. In Kansas, legislation is becoming law without the signature of Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly.

"The measures vary by state, but generally make it a crime to interfere with religious assemblies or disrupt worship services. Some laws also restrict certain protest activity near houses of worship.

"Penalties in some states include up to one year in jail and fines reaching $10,000 for first-time offenders. The laws also give states authority to pursue prosecutions if local authorities decline to act." . . .
