Haviv Rettig Gur on Ro Khanna’s shameless anti-Israel stunt. Has the U.S. abandoned the Venezuelan people? The end of Prince Harry’s fairy tale. And more.
I don't understand all the megamergers and acquisitions of "entertainment" companies. I thought (how naive!) since the breakup of AT&T long ago that we were opposed to huge corporate essentially monopolistic entities.
Ro Khanna lauded the nazi tattoo guy as the 2nd coming, so the only way he thought to undo the damage to his reputation is to go to Israel and try to cause trouble to make himself some kind of left wing hero. Turns out even if you are a US congressman and go into another country's restricted military zone you are going to be held by the military....whodathunkit...(also why does it take 2 days to manufacture your outrage?) meanwhile, homeless encampments, housing crisis, water crisis, people feeling cali because of taxes and ridiculous regulations, crime and drugs out off the charts in his district but he decided what will help his bona fides is to pick a fight with Israel....the democrats sure know how to pick them. I hope the entire party implodes.
So shocked just shocked that the Mullahs, people that slaughtered 40,000 of their own countrymen in 2 days, murders women for not having their hair covered, have killed thousands of US service personnel cant be trusted to keep to an agreement......our foreign policy is being run by the ignoramuses Witkoff and Kushner ...
So the liberals are upset that a conservative is going to buy one of their propaganda outlets so they are suing to stop it...that is what the lawsuit is...funny how these 12 attorney generals had no issue supporting liberal companies taking over movie companies....and they also seem to have no issue with Chinese communist investment and control in the US movie industry, but to the left wing US conservatives are the enemy apparently
I'm sorry but why do we keep having to hear about Harry and by extension Meghan? Talk about a spoiled nepo baby who made some poor choices in life.
Let's create a circus and without Israeli permission ahead of time, surprise everyone and let's break into the most dangerous terrorist neighborhood w a NY Times reporter embedded and see what happens! Cry
and then act all outraged and Pikachu shocked face when a sovereign country's defense force stops you to A) keep you safe, and B) ask what the hell you think you are doing??
There is stupid, then there's Democrat Stupid, then there is Ro Khanna stupid.
Possibly calculated does not mean it wasn’t stupid. Meandering around a highly volatile area looking to provoke a confrontation with young military people on edge is a recipe for a really bad outcome.
If you are not following the murder of the former British MP Ann Widdecombe, you should. It is worth listening to some of her speeches as she was a great advocate for free speech. Police are now treating the murder as politically motivated.
Amnesty International UK had to withdraw its report 'A Growing Threat' which listed a number of their political opponents on the subject of women's rights as anti-established human rights (AI UK is very pro trans rights -- the UK Supreme Court reject their argument in 2025 but they neglected to list the UK SC as being anti-rights) . They have now withdrawn the report pending review. The various groups who were defamed are considering their legal options. John Cleese who was one of the great movers behind the Secret Policeman's Ball concert had renounced Amnesty because of their action. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/14/amnesty-is-a-joke/ or https://archive.ph/bHi8I
We should be judged by the balance of our life not by our best or worst moments.
So, it should be with President Trump.
Since 2024 I have been and continue to be a strong supporter.
And yet, I have harshly criticized him when I thought he was wrong.
Criticizing our leaders when we believe them to be wrong is good for them but more importantly it is good for the nation.
Refusing to criticize them because it may give comfort to our political opponents is neither good for our leaders nor is it good for the nation.
Trump made a terrible mistake in taking his foot off the Iranian snake on April the 8th.
We can still recover from that mistake but it is going to be exponentially harder than it needed to be.
What we may not be able to recover from is the promiscuous spending that is the fiscal abortion perpetrated by the Trump administration and our truly loathsome Congress.
A budget deficit of $1.78 trillion in FY2025.
A budget deficit of $1.85 trillion in FY 2026 (projected by CBO).
Yes, Yes, Yes, it could have and undoubtedly would have been worse under a Kamala Harris Presidency.
BUT we don’t justify our own bad behavior by pointing to the bad behavior of others.
If we don’t return to fiscal conservatism, we will destroy the Republican Party as surely as the socialists are destroying the Democrat Party.
Unconstrained spending and/or socialism will destroy the country.
One would think there is a huge “middle” out there that would swamp the two parties in elections if they were given a voice. But the GOP and Dems (with their lickspittle Federal Judges) would use every possible tactic to prevent a 3rd party ever getting off the ground. So instead we have both parties moving to a “free everything” mentality which ends with Odoacer at our gates,
Ro is playing the game very cleverly. Getting his immense wealth as an issue off the table now. Making clear he is anti israel and anti jew. And developing support from both the Bernie crowd and many in the tucker caucus. He is obama 2.0 but even better ( no need for a teleprompter) . His can make mincemeat out of the giggling word salad maker.
He backed away thinking that the half of the country that hates him would start loving him. They will always hate him but then again they’re going to hate the next Republican candidate….and the one after that etc etc etc.
Ah...another ICE "weaponized vehicle" claim in the summer
"Attacked by snowshovel" in the winter.
Humorous to see many one party states seeking to enjoin the warner bros deal on anti trust grounds. Talk about monopolies
I don't understand all the megamergers and acquisitions of "entertainment" companies. I thought (how naive!) since the breakup of AT&T long ago that we were opposed to huge corporate essentially monopolistic entities.
Ah, the arrest of Fergie Chambers is such a good news ! 🍾

Yes, Israel is now the new Iowa.

DETAINMENT when police ask for ID and info.
and then act all outraged and Pikachu shocked face when a sovereign country's defense force stops you to A) keep you safe, and B) ask what the hell you think you are doing??
There is stupid, then there's Democrat Stupid, then there is Ro Khanna stupid.
Not stupid. Very calculated
Possibly calculated does not mean it wasn’t stupid. Meandering around a highly volatile area looking to provoke a confrontation with young military people on edge is a recipe for a really bad outcome.
Stupid in certain ways? Yes. But yet those he calls genocidal didn't hurt him or allow him to be hurt. Imagine Rubio going into gaza w the NY POST
But politically?
Politics is one thing but getting yourself killed never turns out to be a wise decision.

With the Republicans you get the former.
With the Democrats you get both.
Time for a third party?
Bring back DOGE and balance the budget
Agree with almost everything here
“ Trump made a terrible mistake in taking his foot off the Iranian snake on April the 8th.”
Until then Trump did hold all the cards. But when he switched to making it about a deal he handed Iran a deck of aces,
Afraid so!
Lanny for Senator.
CS, I had no idea that you hate me that much.
😉😉😉😉😉
I just want to be your speech writer!
God knows I'd need a good one to get elected to that pit of vipers.
If only.

Unfortunately, the young 'uns in the crowd are scratching their heads, wondering what an Odoacer is.
When folks understand that they can vote themselves "FREE STUFF" then the end of Democracy is rapidly approaching.
I give it 50 years at most.
I fear 50 years is wishful thinking. Empire collapse, like bankruptcy, happens little by little, then all at once.
I’m going to be OK.
I’m almost 78.
BUT it breaks my heart the debt that we are leaving our kids and grandkids to clean up.
Because in the end the piper always has to be paid.

The Tucker and Khanna playbook
Step 1: make it all about Israel.
Step 2: fly to Israel
Step 3: get asked questions in Israel
Step 4: feign outrage and become hysterical
Step 5: broadcast everywhere
Step 6: cash the check
It took me some time to get to this point on Tucker but wow this guy has gone off the deep end.
Unfortunately Megyn K has gotten just as bad and I used to listen to her religiously.
Khanna, I knew from the start was a total sleezeball.
Ro is playing the game very cleverly. Getting his immense wealth as an issue off the table now. Making clear he is anti israel and anti jew. And developing support from both the Bernie crowd and many in the tucker caucus. He is obama 2.0 but even better ( no need for a teleprompter) .

I suspect that you are 100% correct.
Hoping Trump does not back down this time and finishes the job in Iran
Why do journalists these days and posters on Social media have the need to constantly report “ I told you so “ ?
Is this a new phenomenon ? It’s ugly imo
The cease fire on April 8th was a terrible stumble by the Trump Administration.
He backed away thinking that the half of the country that hates him would start loving him. They will always hate him but then again they’re going to hate the next Republican candidate….and the one after that etc etc etc.
