141 days ago, Hamas terrorists burned men, women, and children alive in their homes, zip tied women to trees and gang raped them, and kidnapped men, women and babies. 141 days of hell has followed, and 134 innocent people are still being held hostage.

this morning, remember it didn’t have to be this way. The university chose not to enforce their code of conduct and allowed outside agitators to wreak havoc on their campus. They own this.

Young Democrats of America called for a ceasefire on October 7th, while Hamas terrorists were still laying siege on Israeli towns and kibbutzim, so forgive me if I don’t care what they have to say about this issue now.

Fortunately many in the Arab world, particularly the GCC, see Hezbollah and Hamas for what they are - death cults whose violent ideologies threaten the prosperous future of civilians in the region. Unfortunately many in the West still don’t understand the region. At all.
Everything about this post is on the mark. Over 100 people - children, women, grandparents, sons and daughters - are being held hostage for 25 weeks because people in the West refuse to put pressure on Hamas.

As frustrating as it is to see the government fail to secure a deal, knowing they are dealing with a terror group that disregards any human life, I am equally

Enough is enough with these jihadi cheerleaders.
Of course more than half arrested were not students. The equivocations by the media and supporters of these pro-Hamas protests with the anti-war Vietnam student protests are intentionally deceptive and dangerous. There is nothing grassroots about these protests.

On the same day an American citizen murdered by Hamas was being laid to rest, terrorist supporters were marching in New York waving the flags of Hamas and Hezbollah, both US-designated terrorist groups. Unfathomable that this is where we’re at in America.
Not even two years ago, footage like this would've been a national news story.
But now? It's just another Monday in NYC. Shame on the elected leaders who've allowed this to be normalized.

Unless they have specifically said so (cough, Sanders) it doesn’t mean anything if a candidate doesn’t attend AIPAC. It’s on the eve of Super Tuesday and a scheduling nightmare for all of them.

Candace Owens repeatedly and unapologetically spews antisemitic conspiracies that make Jews unsafe and the campaign can’t have it both ways.
