Senator Jon Ossoff’s surprisingly bitter and personal attack on GOP senatorial nominee Mike Collins teaches us several things. First, for all the money he has raised from California and other radical Democrats Ossoff is afraid of Collins. Second, that Ossoff knows he cannot win a campaign on the issues and so his only hope is to make vicious, dishonest personal attacks on Mike Collins. Third, that Ossoff will wage an endlessly negative campaign trying to smear Collins out of the race. Let me give a couple examples of how anti-Georgia and how vulnerable Ossoff’s record is. According to America’s New Majority Project (available at its website) 75%, three out of every four, want to limit women’s athletics to people born as females. Ossoff voted against the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act. 81% favor having only US citizens vote. Ossoff opposes the Save Act. 88% believe every American should have the right to choose the kind of vehicle they wanted. Ossoff voted against repealing the extremely restrictive restrictive California electric vehicle mandate. Some 82% believe parents have a right to see the school curriculum for their children. Ossoff opposes these policies.73% favor expanding domestic oil and gas production to bring down the cost of fuel. Ossoff favors phasing our fossil fuels. Finally, 79% favor middle class tax relief but Ossoff voted against every tax cut and in favor of a giant tax increase in 2025. With a radical anti-Geiorgia record like this you can understand why Ossoff is turning to viscous dishonest personal attacks to smear Mike Collins instead of debating the issues.

Mel Brooks on how he got the idea to make "History of the World: Part I" (1981):

"I was walking across the parking lot at 20th Century-Fox on my way to my office when one of the grips who had worked on ''High Anxiety'' (1977) shouted to me from the back of a moving truck. ''Hey, Mel, what's next? Planning a big one?''

From out of the blue the biggest title I could think of popped into my mind: ''Yes, the biggest movie ever made. It's called 'History of the World.' ''

Someone else on the truck yelled: ''How can you cover the whole world in one movie?'' ''You're right,'' I shouted. ''Maybe I'll call it 'History of the World - Part I.' '' Actually, if truth be told, I hadn't a clue as to what I was going to do next. That was two years ago, but now - this Friday - ''History of the World - Part I'' opens.

(...)

Will there be a ''History of the World - Part 2''? No. Maybe a ''Part 4,'' never a ''Part 2.''"

("The World According to Mel Brooks", Mel Brooks, The NY Times, 1981)

P.S: On this day, 45 years ago, "History of the World: Part I" (1981) was released in the USA.

The second the mob heard she was Jewish, they tried to rape her to death.

Lara Logan on 60 Minutes describing her brutal mob assault in Tahrir Square, 2011.

She was reporting on the celebrations of Hosni Mubarak’s resignation when the crowd turned on her. They tore her clothes off and sexually assaulted and violently violated her for 20 to 30 minutes with their hands, over and over.

The frenzy exploded the moment someone screamed she was Jewish and Israeli. Then all they wanted was to rape her, beat her, and rip her apart.

This is what that hatred looks like in action. October 7 was not a surprise.

Watch her full account.

Great stat we found for last night's episode of MLB Game Night:

I just had the craziest experience at the airport.

We are about to board a flight to Atlanta when the pilot from the incoming plane walks out of the jetway. Guy is probably late 50s, salt and pepper hair, military look. The kind of pilot you instantly feel good about seeing on your flight.

Pilot walks over to the counter, gets on the PA system, and starts addressing everyone. “Folks, I’ve been doing this a long time. Flying one of these jets is easy. The hard part is looking at 130 people and telling them their flight is going to be delayed.”

Audible groans throughout the boarding gate. Most people here are flying to Atlanta as a layover before another flight. 130 people just had their day become a complete mess.

The pilot goes on. “I get it, trust me. But here’s the deal: During our landing, we had a small mechanical issue. I’m not your pilot for the next leg, but I don’t feel confident the jet’s safe to fly until we have a mechanical team look it over, and I don’t feel comfortable asking the next pilots to fly you guys until we get confirmation.”

He points at the agents next to him behind the counter: “Now, none of this is the agents’ fault. Please be kind to them. I’m the one who made this decision, not them, so any inconvenience you experience is my fault. Just please know that I don’t do this lightly, and I’m only doing it because I believe it’s in the best interests of everyone’s safety.”

Now this is where the story gets crazy. The pilot puts the microphone down, grabs his suitcase, and all the people in the gate…

Start clapping.

I’m not joking, everyone starts clapping for the guy. 130 people who just had their travel plans ruined give an ovation to the guy who made the decision and delivered the message.

All because he addressed them with decency and transparency, took ownership of the decision, made it clear that it was necessary, and explained why it was in everyone’s best interest.

It’s honestly one of the best examples of strong communication—of strong leadership, for that matter—that I’ve seen in a long time.

@Delta, whoever your Atlanta to Wichita pilot was this morning, he’s one of the good ones. Please tell him the delayed passengers of flight 1637 appreciate what he did.

The next time someone tells you that Iran is ahead in the war with the U.S. and Israel, remember these things. Yes, challenges remain, but the points made here are true:

My Jewish Democratic friends need to pay attention to this alarming vote. Thousands of rockets have been launched at Israel in this war, Iron Dome, David sling, Arrow have lives and prevented WWIII! Support for Israel used to be bipartisan but unfortunately that has all changed!

NEW: An urgent phone call from Saudi Crown Prince MBS changed Trump’s decision at the last minute:

President Trump had intended to declare a complete ceasefire and end the fighting against Iran in exchange for the immediate opening of the Strait of Hormuz.

However, a tense phone call with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman dramatically changed the plan.

According to White House sources, bin Salman begged Trump not to stop the war:
“This is a historic opportunity – we must finish the job and weaken the Iranian regime once and for all.”

In exchange for continuing the fighting, Saudi Arabia offered an unprecedented package of economic and strategic incentives.

Key points in the offer:
• $100 billion transferred directly to finance American war costs
• Full and immediate normalization with Israel after the fall of the regime
• Direct oil pipeline from Saudi Arabia to the port of Ashdod, turning Israel into a major energy hub
• Investment of approximately $1 trillion in the U.S. economy + purchase of $500 billion in American weapons
• Establishment of a new regional defense alliance, including Israel, Saudi Arabia, and other moderate countries under an American umbrella
• Joint naval force to control the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb
• Funding of strategic U.S. bases in Israel
• Joint reconstruction fund for a post-regime “secular and moderate” Iran

In the end, Trump announced a temporary ceasefire, not an end to the war as was expected.

Senior diplomatic sources describe the move as “a historic turning point” marking the beginning of a new regional order.

This is what political games look like in real life.

Hardworking Georgians on the frontlines are working without pay for the third time in nearly six months. Nationwide, this financial strain has resulted in 300+ TSA officers leaving the force.

[American Jewish Committee @AJCGlobal]

We are moved by @USCCB’s Catholic bishops’ powerful message against rising antisemitism.

Jews and Catholics share a common bond and history that can, and should, unite us against hatred.

Before, during and since the Second Vatican Council which ushered in the Nostra Aetate declaration transforming Catholic-Jewish relations 60 years ago, AJC has been honored to work with our Catholic friends and allies at USCCB and beyond.

Together, we can pave the way for a brighter, closer future between our two communities.
