Gavin Newsom bets antisemitism is the
Democratic Party’s future

Gavin Newsom endorsed the lie Tuesday that Israel is an “apartheid” state — a damning sign of where the Democratic Party is headed, and how far it’s already sunk. At an event promoting his new book, the California governor said Israel’s critics are “appropriately” calling it an “apartheid” state — i.e., a knockoff of South Africa’s old segregationist regime. This is a lie — one so egregious that many deem it a form of antisemitism. Apartheid South Africa denied blacks the vote and forced them to endure separate hospitals, separate schools, and even separate bathrooms. Arabs, 20% of Israel’s population, vote and serve in the government and even the military; there is no segregation

Going with the 'enemy of my enemy is my friend ' to ally with "Palestinian " terrorists is not a smart move.

Amazing as it seems, Jews tend to support dems, with votes and money. I suspect that both will dry up for a party that overtly supports anti semitism. We will see.

The ironic part is that Shapiro is the only sane Dem 2028 candidate on their bench, and they will refuse to support him.

More disinformation from the Sparkle Beach Ken. Arabs constitute just over 21% of Israel’s population and have all the rights and benefits of Israeli citizenship, including freedom of religion and representation in government. The truly “apartheid” side is the so-called “Palestinian,” who want Israel and Jews wiped off the face of the Earth. How, in God’s name, can any reasonable person not make this distinction??!!?

Is Democrat James Talarico the real deal

State Rep. James Talarico said just that on Tuesday night — "A little bit of hope is a dangerous thing" — and he meant it as a call to action, a summons to the faithful. But the line lingers in the Texas air for a different reason. Democrats are about to invest a great deal of time, money and, yes, hope in the notion that a young state legislator from Round Rock is the man who will break a nearly four-decade winless drought for his party in the Lone Star State. Hope can animate. It can also delude.

“When riots broke out recently at a prison in Cuba’s Ciego de Avila province, the videos that circulated showed something remarkable,” reports Daniel Allott at The Hill: “Inmates were shouting, ‘Long live Trump!’ ” Along with a growing dissident movement, this “marks a significant psychological shift inside a nation long defined by resistance to US intervention.” Independent journalist Camila Acosta reports many Cubans “long ago” stopped believing the US embargo was behind “every shortage, every blackout, every empty pharmacy shelf.” Notes Allot: “When Cubans protest — and there have been hundreds of demonstrations since July 2021 — they do not chant ‘Down with the embargo.’ They chant ‘Down with [President Miguel] Díaz-Canel.’

The beleaguered Iranian regime, with very few international allies, has been counting on Moscow's support amid the ongoing US-Israeli strikes, but so far it has been left deeply disappointed. Just hours after Israeli and US bombs started hitting Tehran on Saturday, Russia came out with a blunt statement, with the country's permanent representative to the UN, Vassily Nebenzia, calling it an "unprovoked act of armed aggression against a sovereign and independent UN member state." Moscow is one of Tehran's few but staunchest allies, and a possible collapse of the Iranian regime could be a blow for its geopolitical and economic interests. Then why has it not come to Tehran's rescue?

A major talking point among Democrats and their media handmaidens is that President Trump launched a “war of choice” against Iran. Given American casualties and the earth-rattling impact, the criticism could be a powerful political argument in the midterm elections — if it’s true. But it’s not true. In fact, we now can be certain that the war on Iran is not a war of choice. It is instead a war of American self-defense and maybe even a war of survival for Western civilization and Israel.

The airstrike on the Tehran residence of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — one of the opening salvos of the current US-Israeli war with Iran — killed the 86-year-old supreme leader together with large parts of the Iranian command structure. Iran has yet to decide on the next leader. Currently, however, the power vacuum appears to be filled by Iran's top national security official Ali Larijani, reportedly one of the few people trusted by Khamenei to ensure the regime's survival in case of the ayatollah's death. Some 24 hours after the Tehran strike, Larijani took to national television and social media to decry the US and Israel

The joint United States and Israeli strikes on Feb. 28, 2026, did more than destroy military infrastructure. They decapitated the ideological command center of a regime that has spent four decades promising Israel’s annihilation and financing America’s enemies. The death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei marks the most consequential blow to state-sponsored terror in modern history. It revives a question Jewish thinkers have wrestled with for centuries: When does confronting evil move from a strategic option to a moral obligation? The Torah’s final commandment provides the frame. “Remember what Amalek did to you … you shall blot out the name of Amalek from under heaven. Do not forget.”

War is the use of arms to settle differences—tribal, political, religious, cultural, and material—between organized groups. It is unchanging. The general laws of armed conflict stays immutable, given the constancy of human nature. However, the manner in which war is conducted remains fluid. New weapons, tactics, and strategies elicit counterresponses in an endless cycle of tensions between defensive and offensive superiority. That said, has President Trump introduced a novel way of waging Western war against America’s foreign enemies?

House Speaker Mike Johnson said the U.S. strike on Iran was a defensive operation designed to prevent “staggering losses” to American troops and assets, arguing that waiting for Iran to strike first would have resulted in devastating casualties. Johnson spoke to reporters at the Capitol on Monday, where he emphasized that the most critical point of the operation was that it was defensive in nature. “Israel was determined to act in their own defense here, with or without American support,” he said. “Israel faced what they deemed to be an existential threat.

The death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in a US airstrike has brought new urgency to the question of who will become Iran’s new Supreme Leader. Hassan Khomeini, the grandson of the Islamic Republic's founder Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, is a prominent figure in these deliberations and is seen as a relative moderate within the establishment. Mr Khomeini, 53, holds a symbolically important role as custodian of his grandfather's mausoleum and has close ties to reformist politicians. Some politicians inside Iran have seen him as a rival to hardliners who gained sway under Ayatollah Khamenei, notably his son, Mojtaba.

How do destructive ideas and bouts of collective madness so quickly become policy, law, and the status quo? After all, most have little public support — and are not Western nations supposedly rationally governed? There is usually a multi-step process on the road to these self-destructive fits of society-wide insanity. The suicidal impulse so often begins with left-leaning researchers in elite universities (that is, the tenured in search of a novel, grant-getting theory). They begin insisting that a new existential threat requires immediate government intervention, novel legislation, ample funding and public awareness of the impending danger.

Texas state Rep. James Talarico secured a victory over Rep. Jasmine Crockett in the Democrat primary for U.S. Senate on Tuesday, overturning weeks of polling that had shown the Dallas congresswoman with a significant advantage in the race to determine the party’s nominee in the 2026 contest for the seat currently held by Republican Sen. John Cornyn. Recent polling ahead of the March 3 primary showed Crockett leading. A University of Texas at Tyler poll conducted Feb. 13–22 surveyed 1,117 registered voters and 959 likely voters and found Crockett with 55 percent support compared to Talarico’s 37 percent, outside the poll’s 3.2-point margin of error

An American submarine sank an Iranian warship off the coast of Sri Lanka, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed Wednesday, the first US sinking of an enemy ship by torpedo since World War II. The attack left at least 101 people missing, one dead and 78 injured, sources in Sri Lanka’s navy and defense ministry told Reuters. The IRIS Dena frigate was armed with heavy guns, surface-to-air missiles, anti-ship missiles and torpedoes and could carry a helicopter. The 180-crew frigate had issued a distress call at dawn. “An American submarine sunk an Iranian warship that thought it was safe in international waters. Instead, it was sunk by a torpedo,”

A prominent Shiite organization in Dearborn, Michigan, held a memorial for the late Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei over the weekend, honoring him for his "martyrdom" while accusing Americans of being led by Satan. "We're gathered here today to commemorate the martyrdom of the great leader of our time, Sayyid Ali Hussein Khamenei," said Hassan Salamey, one of the speakers at the memorial held at the Hadi Institute on Sunday, a day after U.S. and Israeli forces executed Khamenei and other top Iranian officials in Operation Epic Fury.

She insisted that “people have been disenfranchised,” blaming Republicans for supposedly targeting Dallas and hinting darkly at votes that might not count.

Yet somehow, she thought she was ready for the United States Senate. The voters are weighing in, and their answer so far is: yeah, maybe not so much. Although the official vote count has not been made final, Crockett trails at this hour to her competitor, TX state representative James Talarico. There’s already some legal back and forth, and courts are involved, so the final outcome may not be confirmed for days. Already, though, Crockett is blaming her poor performance on… election fraud.
