“Israeli forces, Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups have both committed serious violations of international humanitarian law in Gaza and carried out atrocity crimes, a U.N. report published on Thursday said. Intensified Israeli attacks and the forcible transfer of Palestinians appeared aimed at a permanent demographic shift in Gaza ‘raising concerns over ethnic cleansing,’ the report by the U.N. human rights office said. The holding and mistreatment of hostages by the Hamas Islamist militant group may amount to war crimes, it said.” (02/19/26)

“Who are you to say? is a way of saying that you (or I) have no right to judge other people, nor to judge actions. As it is applied today, especially if the people whose actions you are judging are of a different ethnicity, ‘race’ (skin color), cultural background, nation, or even sex. It ties back to a statement by Jesus the Christ. It is perhaps the most twisted of any of His quotes: ‘Judge not, lest ye be judged.’ (King James version) It is taken out of context to make judging other people, their actions, and their character a sin. In context, it is clear that He is teaching teaching something else.” (02/18/26)

“Two weeks ago, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made a pit stop at the Tennessee State Capitol to kick off his ‘Take Back Your Health’ tour. On Tuesday, the MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) Institute continued the momentum and sponsored a Day on the Hill at the Tennessee General Assembly. Yesterday, Tennessee lawmakers made a few more MAHA moves by forwarding two bills related to health and nutrition. The Senate Health and Welfare Committee approved a bill supported by Governor Bill Lee that would require physicians to complete sufficient continuing education hours in nutrition each year. A bill that would set up a timeline to remove petroleum-based artificial food dyes from meals provided by schools passed despite pushback from food providers. MAHA and MAGA are largely simpatico when it comes to advocating for clean food ingredients and better nutrition, especially for children.” (02/19/26)

“As someone who loves comedy, what ass-clowns like Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert have done to the concept is like what Harvey Weinstein did to movie production or what Democrats have done to journalism, if journalism were their cellmate in Super-Max. Colbert is the Jeffrey Epstein of truth and Kimmel is the Luigi Mangione of honesty. That’s why it was not shocking to anyone with an IQ larger than their shoe size that Colbert would go on his show and lie, doing his best to help a white guy, James Talarico, beat a black woman, Jasmine Crockett, in the Democratic primary in the Texas Senate race. First, I have to tell you about the concept of equal time.” (02/19/26)

“Former New York City Police Department (NYPD) Chief John Chell blasted New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani for walking back the planned hiring of 5,000 more police officers amid a city budget shortfall of billions of dollars, calling it a ‘recipe for disaster.’ Mamdani’s predecessor, Mayor Eric Adams, proposed at the end of his term that the city hire 5,000 more NYPD officers. Upon entering office, Mamdani moved to cancel all orders signed by Adams after his Sept. 26, 2024, indictment, including the proposed NYPD personnel increase. Under Adams'[s] plan, the NYPD would gradually hire more officers over the coming years, ultimately allowing the NYPD to deploy around 40,000 officers to the streets, while Mamdani’s plan caps the number closer to its current level of around 35,000.” (02/19/26)

“The Trump administration is struggling in court, failing to secure indictments and convictions against a growing list of the president’s enemies. Most recently, against six members of Congress for making a video telling members of the military they do not have to follow illegal orders. It is embarrassing for our Department of Justice to sink resources into such obviously frivolous cases, and this only further contributes to the general sense that President Donald Trump’s administration has the wrong priorities. But that’s not the worst of it. Trump’s DOJ’s lackluster record when it comes to securing indictments and convictions is eroding the prestige of the Justice Department as a core American institution and only deepening the toxic cycle of lawfare in this country.” (02/18/26)
