There are three doors a child walks through that will determine their future: the front door of the home, the front door of the school, and the front door of the place of worship. If those three doors are not aligned, it impacts a child’s education and future.

Today, 50% of our kids cannot read at grade level. Republicans have abandoned public education, Democrats have abandoned standards and accountability, and our kids are the ones paying the ultimate price.

Bulgaria’s winning Eurovision singer Dara “liked” a video of Israel’s Noam Bettan earlier this month.

That shouldn’t be newsworthy. But in a world where wiping my country off the map is somehow a legitimate conversation, it is.

Love to Bulgaria 🇧🇬
From Israel 🇮🇱

Bill Maher just delivered the most clear-eyed, no-bullshit monologue on Israel & antisemitism you’ll hear from any mainstream voice in 2026.

“Israel was founded on the idea that antisemitism made a Jewish state necessary ... Can you honestly listen to this rhetoric and not see why that turned out to be true?”

One of many brutal examples: he called out Columbia professor Hamid Dabashi, who wrote that Jews have “a vulgarity of character that is bone-deep and structural to the skeletal vertebrae of its culture.”

Maher’s reply: “These are the kinds of statements Goebbels would have read and said, ‘No notes.’”

Then he turned to his own party and delivered the kill shot:

“Democrats, where are you? … Until you fix this issue, stop asking me why I’m harder on you.”

Bill Maher is perhaps the one person left in late-night television who still chooses truth over applause.

The rest are just cowards with good lighting.

Thank you Bill🙏

Perhaps Bill Maher’s best monologue yet. It clearly made his LA audience uncomfortable.

People say the left and the right can’t agree on anything these days. But there is this one thing:

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

The Holocaust at Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas of antisemitism, words, stereotypes & prejudice, through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder of Jewish people.

The Holocaust took time.

Rabbi Sacks said it best 🎯

[Yad Vashem @yadvashem]

This is the official poster marking #YomHashoah 2026

The image in Yoav Kahana's poster depicts the "absence" within the "presence"; the personal and collective rupture to the Jewish people engendered by the Holocaust. This rupture accompanied the survivors as they searched for living relatives and were met with an aching void.

Wow. 16 for 16 on market moves. Truly incredible — either great instincts, sheer luck, or… door number three - insider trading. We all know the answer.

And the CFTC? Doing their best three monkeys impression: see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.

Corruption, now fully normalized under the Trump administration.

[Rahm Emanuel @RahmEmanuel]

President Trump, his cabinet, members of Congress, and all federal officials cannot bet on prediction markets tied to U.S. policy or military action. This can be done by an executive order, but we know that won’t happen, as Donald Trump has normalized corruption in the White House - something we should have a zero tolerance policy for.

We can’t have young kids from Peoria, Illinois, and Platteville, Wisconsin, risking their lives while a bunch of nepo babies from Palm Springs and Palm Beach are risking their daddy's little inheritance. Washington needs a good power washing. It’s time we stop betting against America.

[University of Wisconsin Law School @WisconsinLaw]

.@RahmEmanuel visited UW–Madison students from the Law School and @UWLaFollette during a Q&A lunch, encouraging them to consider careers in public service. Emanuel, who most recently served as U.S. ambassador to Japan, has held a variety of roles in government and public service.

BREAKING: The Embassy of Lebanon to the United States has condemned the attack on a Michigan synagogue by a Lebanese national.

Lebanon condemns it, while Islamists in Dearborn celebrate it.

Let that sink in.

Hi everyone, I've learned that my article for Rolling Stone really, really upsets the anti-Israel fanatics.

So please, don't repost my latest article for @RollingStone, unless you want them to be even angrier 😢

No, your Jewish friends are not suddenly psychopathic, pro-war maniacs who want the world to burn.

We have been fighting this battle every single day since October 7, 2023. That's 879 days.
We always knew it would end with Iran.
Hamas was just IRGC’s proxy.
The Palestinian people IRGC’s pawns.

And both Americans and Israelis have been fighting this war since 1979. That's 47 years.

So before assuming the worst about your Jewish friends, maybe pause and listen to what they are saying.

Instead of dismissing them.
Instead of gaslighting them.

[Daisy Blakemore @DaisyBlakemore]

Image hating Jews that much you defend a terrorist regime that kill women for showing their hair.

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

If you had nothing to say about tens of thousands of innocent Iranians slaughtered by the regime, you don't suddenly get to pretend to care about Iranian lives because you are "anti war""

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

You’re about to hear a lot of uninformed voices saying Israel and the U.S. “started” a war with the regime in Iran.

The truth is, the regime in Iran has been attacking Israelis for decades.

🟣They funded their proxy Hezbollah in Lebanon, which murdered countless Israelis in missile and terror attacks on civilians over four decades.

🟣They funded and trained Hamas, which carried out the October 7th massacre murdering, raping, and kidnapping Israeli civilians.

🟣Their proxy the Houthis in Yemen shot ballistic missiles at Israeli civilians for two years straight.

🟣The regime in Iran launched massive missile attacks on civilians in several attacks on Israelis over the past two years.

The regime in Iran paints Israel as an enemy, while murdering, torturing, and silencing its own people.

Israelis and Iranians both deserve freedom from the regime’s terror.

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

Gentle reminder that the regime in Iran slaughtered over 40,000 Iranians last month for protesting.

They raped, tortured, and held bodies hostage for ransom.

That’s the regime you’re defending when you oppose the war.
