READ ALL ABOUT IT: Jim Jordan was a major co-conspirator in Trump's effort to mount a coup. Yet it's not an issue in the speakership race. @dfriedman33 & I have all the ugly details.

If you don't live in Israel or consume Israeli media, you don't know who Yair Golan is. He is a 61-year-old retired Major General in the Israel army and a former parliament MP. Spend a minute to read this story.

Yesterday, when IDF and the police were in complete chaos, Golan put on his old uniform, took his weapon, and drove into the war zone multiple times to rescue civilians under fire. He rescued two young adults hiding under a bush after 260 of their friends were murdered at an outdoor party. He answered a call from a journalist that his son was hiding under fire and simply said, "Give me his location, and I will bring him back home." An hour later, the son called his father from Golan's car.

Golan collected a small crew and went in and out of the war zone, rescuing dozens of people while exchanging fire with Hamas terrorists. He is 61, he could have stayed home, but he chose to risk his life for people he does not know.

Golan is one of the strongest voices from the Israeli left and was constantly attacked by the right wing in Israel. But when the time came, he was first fighting the barbaric attack. The same brain wiring that supports peace, is often the same wiring that drives people to do the right thing.

A true hero.

The DSA held a hate rally, chanting: “from the River to the Sea,” which is code for wiping Israel from the face of the earth.

Let that sink in. The DSA is calling for the destruction of the Jewish State amid the largest single-day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. When it comes to the butchering and kidnapping of Israeli civilians and children, the DSA leadership has no shame. No decency. No humanity. Only hate.

I have been warning for years about the deep rot of antisemitism at the core of the DSA and its enablers. There’s no denying it anymore.

Bobby might share the same name as our father, but he does not share the same values, vision or judgment. Today's announcement is deeply saddening for us. We denounce his candidacy and believe it to be perilous for our country. @roryekennedy @joekennedy @KKT_Kennedy

Thanks @kimadamsforva for sharing your personal story – one sadly shared by many Virginians. Your voice and perspective are needed in Richmond. https://t.co/FMk9tP9xdR

The US submarine force (both attack and missile boats) are the most capable machines on the face of the earth. Every aspect of the submarine technology is highly classified. The nuke payloads are extremely sensitive info. Trump has imperiled our security.

NEW: ERCOT paid a Colorado Bitcoin mining company $13.3 million from June to September to cut back on its energy usage.

The company doubled its revenue from reducing operations instead of mining Bitcoin.

After walking away from Ukraine, no MAGA Republican has credibility on who the US will defend. Cowards can sit this one out. We’ll take it from here. With the right leadership we can defend ourselves, Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan.

Mike Pence also blames Trump and Republican appeasers for growing global instability.

Wait to Putin-loving Republicans find out that Russia is a backer and ally of both Iran and Hamas.

Hamas' close ally Russia out with statements this morning calling for a "cease fire," essentially telling Israel to stand down.
