This morning, the headlines were dominated by Colombian President Gustavo Petro's claims that one of the strikes against vessels of Venezuelan-based drug cartels contained a Colombian 'fisherman.'No matter that this allegation can't be documented, and happened over a month ago, the claim was immediately picked up online. It will undoubtedly be the topic of discussion over the next few days. As Rush Limbaugh was famous for saying, "It isn't the nature of evidence, it is the seriousness of the charge" that matters. Here, there is literally no evidence, but the allegation of "murder' is pretty serious, so here we go.

Israel carried out “significant and extensive” waves of airstrikes on the Gaza Strip on Sunday, in response to what it said was Hamas’ “blatant violation of the ceasefire.”
More than 20 Israeli airstrikes were reported in Khan Younis in the south of the territory, according to reports.
“Our planes have begun a significant and extensive wave of attacks on dozens of targets throughout the Gaza Strip,” Israeli journalist Hallel Bitton Rosen wrote on X. It comes after the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) accused Hamas of firing on it in the southern city of Rafah. “Terrorists fired an anti-tank missile and gunfire toward IDF troops,” the IDF said,

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen faced two more challenges to her position in the European Parliament last week. She received support from just over half the members of the 720-seat European Parliament in both votes. Neither of the motions of no confidence had a chance of securing the two-thirds majority required to eject the President but still they served as the latest reminder of the increasingly fractured European Parliament and its growing populist factions.
The Patriots for Europe group, a conservative-populist faction which participated in the parliamentary motion,

Officials in President Trump’s Justice Department have been scrutinizing crime data in recent months — they’ve found evidence that Democratic politicians have been skewing crime stats for their own benefit ahead of the midterm elections, The Post has learned.
Illinois Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker — a vocal opponent of Trump’s use of federal troops for both immigration enforcement and fighting big-blue-city crime — has lately touted double-digit declines in Chicago crime rates where “shootings and homicides on our highways are down 60, 70, 80% depending on where you look.”
But the number of felonies in Chicago — not to mention New York, Los Angeles and Portland, Ore. —

Zohran Mamdani dropped his big education “plan” last week — and of course his vision amounts to nothing but bigger spending.
He embraced the perverse state class-size law, which forces New York City (and no other system) to hire thousands more “educators” to no real purpose except to enrich the United Federation of Teachers.
Class sizes are already below the law’s limits in nearly all the city’s (too many) failing schools; it’s the successful ones that will have to boost their teacher-student ratios.
The law may well even require the “crown jewel” elite high schools (Stuyvesant, Bronx Science, Brooklyn Tech, etc.) to admit fewer kids,

If you’re reading this today, you probably did not join the aged hippies marching around with signs saying “No more Kings,”a multistate demonstration whose sponsors are not yet fully disclosed. (I don’t think Meghan and Harry are among them, though there are some foreign donors involved.) But rest assured, you didn't miss much.
John Bolton: This Week in “No Man is Above the Law”
The biggest domestic story of the week in my view was the indictment of former National Security Adviser John Bolton. If the 18-count indictment handed down by a federal grand jury in Maryland where he resides is proven, he demonstrated astonishing arrogance and disregard for national security.

One of the perplexing aspects of the American character is how, despite our many domestic challenges, we like to import the world’s thorny issues into our political debates. This is not a critique of discussing such problematic issues, such as the Israel-Hamas conflict. It is a celebration of, and a clarion call for, the First Amendment’s recognition and protection of the God-given right of free speech (which, as I have asserted previously, is implicitly a recognition and protection of the God-given right to the freedom of conscience).
What makes this possible is a citizen’s understanding and performance of their duty—an ethical and a legal one, as a matter of fact—

Following reports of former New York Times editor and the Free Press founder Bari Weiss being appointed editor-in-chief of CBS News, editors on Wikipedia began negatively slanting her page and those of CBS and the Free Press. This includes attempting to label Weiss as right-wing and slanted edits about a CBS settlement with President Donald Trump. Some suggested blacklisting CBS as a source in the future. News about Weiss being appointed to leadership at CBS News first emerged on October 2 with the official announcement on October 6. The newly-merged parent company Paramount Skydance further announced its purchase of her Free Press outlet.

The New York Times apparently thought better of the original headline gracing its ostensibly straight-news coverage of the blowback that followed when New York City mayoral candidate Zoran Mamdani encountered, for perhaps the first time, an issue relating to Israeli security on which he had no opinion: the necessity of Hamas’s disarmament.
“Mamdani Faces Islamophobic attacks After Comments About Hamas,” read the original headline of Emma Fitzsimmons’s article. Subsequently, Mamdani faced only unspecified “attacks” that were presumably as vague as his “comments” about the barbarous terrorist sect.
The Times would have been better off scrubbing the item entirely. It is about as deliberately ...

How did California manage to spend $24 billion in taxpayer money to address homelessness over the past years, only for the problem to get substantially worse?
The state has not offered any explanation since that figure was revealed in a state audit released earlier this year. But the arrest of two California men on Thursday suggests that at least some of the money may have been stolen through fraud.
Cody Holmes, the former chief financial officer at a downtown Los Angeles-based developer of affordable housing, was arrested on a federal criminal complaint charging him with mail fraud. In a separate case, Steven ...
