Clarice Feldman - Etana Hecht:Before going into surgery,... | Facebook - Etana Hecht: 
"Before going into surgery, @IsraeliPM gave a press conference and dropped some truth bombs.
"What is the focus of international criticism, including American ones?
The criticism that says that the State of Israel and the @IDF are not doing enough to reduce civilian deaths. And that is simply not true."

"Not because I say it. But because the world's greatest urban warfare experts say so, such as General Petraeus, or Colonel John @SpencerGuard of West Point."
"They say that there is no army in the world who did and is doing what the IDF does to reduce civilian deaths."...

Must read!! Have Boeing's enemies declared war?-----Why Boeing Should NOT Be Blamed for Plane Malfunctions - Glenn Beck

Or is there another culprit?
"Is Boeing to blame for all the airplane malfunctions we’ve heard about recently? 
Or is there another culprit? 
Glenn recalls a conversation he recently had with a pilot who was tired of the federal government putting all the blame on Boeing. 
  • Instead, he argued, it’s the federal inspectors who certify the planes and a lack of pilot training, especially outside of America, that should be called out. 
But do other pilots agree? 
  • Is this yet another example of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s accidental or intentional incompetence?..
Transcript
GLENN: Okay. Yesterday, I had a good friend come up to me. And he said to me, Glenn, I can't take the news on Boeing anymore.
And I said, why is that? And he said, well, you know, I was a pilot. And I said, that's right. For American pilots. For years.
He said, yes. So I kind of know something about the airline industry. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
And he said, aren't all planes that come from Boeing, don't they receive a final check?
Yes. Don't they also receive a final check, from the government...

Hiding And Rewriting History

Instapundit - BOTTOM STORY OF THE DAY: Sam Bankman-Fried might be eating a lot of rice, almonds and Skittles drink

Instapundit - We are of the same class, you know. We are not plebs to be held to the same standards as others. - Ed Driscoll
"...But like Epstein’s mother corresponding with esteemed New York teacher Gabriel Kotter, SBF’s mother wrote the judge a letter, you know: SBF Is an Empathetic Vegan Altruist MIT Grad!

SBF’s mom submitted a 6-page letter, so I won’t go through it all. But I will give you a flavor of it and give you my argument for why I think it represents something much more than a mother’s plea for mercy.

From the first paragraph, Barbara Fried tells us what matters to her: credentials.

Dear Judge Kaplan: I am Sam Bankman-Fried’s mother. | am also a law professor at Stanford, where | have taught for the past thirty-five years, and before that was an attorney at Paul Weiss in New York and a law clerk on the Second Circuit. 

She is speaking as a highly credentialed person to another highly credentialed person. I am a law professor. You are a judge. We are of the same class, you know. We are not plebs to be held to the same standards as others.

Cringe...

The next part of the letter is particularly precious: Sam is a VEGAN, don’tcha know?...

The Atlantic Op-Ed: The War at Stanford, by Theo Baker:
"One of the section leaders for my computer-science class, Hamza El Boudali, believes that President Joe Biden should be killed...I’m saying he is guilty of mass murder and should be treated in the same way that a terrorist with darker skin would be... 
El Boudali has also said that he believes that Hamas’s October 7 attack was a justifiable act of resistance, and that he would actually prefer Hamas rule America in place of its current government (though he clarified later that he “doesn’t mean Hamas is perfect”)....
We’ve had protests in the past,” Richard Saller, the university’s interim president, told me in November—about the environment, and apartheid, and Vietnam. But they didn’t pit “students against each other” the way that this conflict has...

And they included no provision for exemptions for religious people or groups, "demonstrating their intent to deny religious freedom to Minnesota citizens, churches, and schools and to engage in persecuting Christians and some other religious bodies." He pointedly noted, "If the state can tell churches and schools what they cannot say or do on 'gender identity,' then it can tell churches and schools what they cannot say or do on other subjects too."

Eight Brand New Biden Gaffes ABC,CBS, NBC Have Buried

The gaffe machine that is President Joe Biden let out another howler on Tuesday and the Big Three networks dutifully ignored it - Geoffrey Dickens
"...Biden: “US Has Lowest Inflation of Any Country in America
On March 14, India Today reported:

US President Joe Biden has made yet another gaffe while speaking about his administration’s efforts to tackle inflation in the country. Instead of saying that the US has one of the lowest inflation rates in the world, Biden said, “We have the lowest inflation rates of any country in America.” 

“Wages are rising faster than prices and now we have among the lowest inflation rates of any country in America. And, still, we are fighting to lower it even further,” Biden said in his address in Milwaukee in the state of Wisconsin.

"...Christine Blasey Ford has surfed this break countless times, on good days and bad. She knows just what it takes to summon up your courage and hurl yourself off a cliff.
In September 2018, Ford – a Ph.D. in psychology, a professor at Palo Alto University, and a mother of two – jumped straight into the maelstrom of American politics.
She alleged that Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who was then a nominee for a seat on the Supreme Court, had sexually assaulted her in the summer of 1982, when she was 15 and he was 17.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility - American Thinker

To the President who claims he is a Catholic in good standing, it’s just another day to poke his fingers in your eyes. - By Clarice Feldman
"...Yes, the White House is hosting the traditional easter egg rolling event, but it has banned all religious symbols at the event, and in a proclamation dated, “in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-four” announced that this day, March 31, is “Transgender Day of Visibility.”..
It strikes me that it is so deliberately offensive to Christians it’s puzzling.
It is to Hugh Hewitt as well, who asks:
“Jesting aside: Was the declaration of the (first?) Transgender Day of Visibility coincident with Easter Sunday an unintended coincidence or an intentional overlap by whomever thought it up and sold it to senior staff who sold it to @POTUS, and, if either intentionality for whatever reason or simple indifference to the significance of Easter, did the WH team alert @JoeBiden of the overlap? Which answers would be more revealing about the staff? Because I’m not believing that Joe thought this one up on his own. Second question: Are there other countries in the world that have so declared such a day?”
Biden is not the only Democratic official who could use some lessons in civility...

Biden working to ... something bad to another Kennedy?


The spirit that built skyscrapers will rebuild bridges | Blaze Media

The spirit that built skyscrapers will rebuild bridges | Blaze Media

I am absolutely sick to death of all of these stories that say things like that. Have we forgotten who we are? Have we forgotten what we’ve done?

Let me remind you of the American spirit, a spirit so potent and so vibrant that it has scaled towering mountains, mountains nobody thought they could cross.

It’s the spirit that constructed marvels of engineering. Have you ever been to the Hoover Dam? Have you seen the New York City skyline? The skyscraper was invented here for a reason. Here we are on the threshold of tomorrow, and none of us knows what is going to happen. But I'm getting the impression that we’ve been so beaten down that we believe we’re not going to make it tomorrow.

Have we forgotten who our ancestors are and what they did? If you look through our history even briefly, you will see a group of people who never take no for an answer. You will see a people who can do anything.
