As @JonahDispatch rightly explained on his podcast: the reason people always compare to the Nazis is because they aren’t educated enough on other autocratic regimes or heavy handed leaders to make more accurate comparisons.

The German and Japanese did not design their postwar constitutions, borders, schools, or security forces. These were all decided by the victors of World War II and humbly accepted by the vanquished. Spain would know this had it not been neutral during the war.

Spain says it decided not to participate in Trump’s Board of Peace. “It does not include Palestine. The future must be decided by Palestinians.”

I agree with Bernstein, and this is even worse than it first appears. This is precisely how antisemitism now functions in progressive institutions and "polite" society. What the venue openly admits is blatant discrimination enforced through ethnic targeting. They say they “do not…

This is just such a profound example of the mental sickness that has taken hold in many progressive circles. How do you get to the point where you state openly that you never ask artists about their political beliefs, but you think it’s perfectly fine not only to ask an Israeli…

Imagine the entire world coming together to offer you this FOR FREE — and all you have to do is live there and be normal and not blow things up — but you still can't do it because hating Israel is more important

During the Dec 14th Bondi attack in which I was shot, one of the amazing lifesavers left the nearby surf club and with no regard to her own safety, ran towards the site of the attack. She looked after me, held my hand, helped apply first aid, while speaking to me the whole time…

There were more New Yorkers in the streets to cancel a stand-up show of one Israeli dude than there were to protest against the atrocities committed against Alawites, Druze, Kurds, and Iranians. Seems like antisemitism is the greatest motivator for protests.

Regarding Greenland, I’ve still yet to see a single explanation from the White House or anyone else as to why it makes sense for the United States to pay $700 billion of taxpayer money to obtain security guarantees that Denmark has already said it will give us for free.

I don’t support invading #Greenland but this is a good point — @denmarkdotdk must exhibit extreme restraint against any U.S. incursion.

People in greenhouses (or Greenland) shouldn’t throw stones. Last year the Danish government strongly criticised Israel for its defensive war in Gaza. The PM said the level of violence was “unacceptable”. Denmark used its presidency of the EU at the end of 2025 to advocate for…

So *after* Israel agreed to a ceasefire, including agreeing to release hundreds of convicted terrorists, to try to end the war, while 98-99% of Gaza's civilians are still alive, even though Israel had the military capacity to kill basically all of them, you *then* decide to call…

There is a direct line between a strong Israel and what we see currently watching in Iran. The collapse of that regime would be a monumental moment in history. The regime has been spiraling since the Israel and US attack. A US Senate candidate needs to understand this.…

Talarico’s positions on Israel shows he has little idea how the region works. It’s incredible embarrassing to watch him stumble around on these issues. He apparently doesn’t realize he’s running in the state of Texas, which is a very Pro Israel state. #txlege
