Amazing: KPMG wrote a report describing the successful use of AI by businesses. But the case studies turned out to be AI hallucinations.

Hezbollah is, quite literally, a foreign occupying force. It pledges allegiance to Iran’s regime—not Lebanon.

I’m not Jewish. I’m married to a proud Jewish woman. I’m a proud Zionist and a fierce supporter of the state of Israel.

A truth: What makes antisemitism so uniquely dangerous is that it’s always had a home and it’s always been a real threat on BOTH the left & the right.

An observation: Whenever I speak that truth, whenever I say antisemitism is found in unacceptable numbers on BOTH the left & the right, most people on the left tell me it’s only a problem on the right, and most people on the right tell me it’s only a problem on the left. They’re both wrong.

BREAKING: A Toronto police officer has been murdered after executing a search warrant on an Iran-back Hezbollah Kta’ib cell in Canada.

BREAKING: Alice Edwards, one of only two UN rights experts to sign a letter on the Oct. 7 atrocities, says “There was a campaign [by other rapporteurs] to prevent that letter going out. Weeks of being bullied and deterred from writing it, telling me everything in it was false.”

We’re only half way through 2026, but this is hands down the best photo of the year.

Calling Israel the aggressor in 1948 and 1967 is a whole new level of lying.

Even for Cenk.

I need everyone to share this.

The IDF found another massive number of Hezbollah weapons in storage sites in civilian buildings.

Hezbollah terrorists are using civilian buildings in Lebanon as weapons storage, just like Hamas does in Gaza.

[The Times of Israel @TimesofIsrael]

Hamas members executed and maimed dozens of Palestinians in Gaza, UN report says https://t.co/580Vp8nd7s

[Mike Pompeo @mikepompeo]

Least surprising news of the day. UNRWA is essentially a subsidiary of Hamas. Grateful to President Trump for ending US support for this disgraceful agency.

A @HofstraU professor is facing a disciplinary hearing after calling a colleague’s course proposal “word salad” during a faculty meeting on curriculum changes.

What started as academic discussion among faculty has now become a harassment probe.

[Aizenberg @Aizenberg55]

📌Committee to Protect Journalists has quietly removed 8 fake Gaza "journalists" because it finally admitted they "participated in combat." @pressfreedom issued over 100 articles since 10/7 slamming Israel but not ONE mention that Hamas & PIJ abused the press vest for combat. 1/
