John Sexton at Hat Hair hears KJP Violated Hatch Act After Being Warned to Stop (But No Disciplinary Action Will Be Taken)
Michael Chamberlain, a former Trump administration official who now runs a conservative watchdog group called Protect the Public’s Trust, said the OSC’s failure to enforce the Hatch Act after Jean-Pierre and Bates “doubled down” on political speech shows the law to be toothless against those who violate it when they serve at high levels of government. “Apparently, nobody takes the Hatch Act very seriously, at least nobody that matters. Ms. Jean-Pierre cites it frequently to avoid tough questions, but when she and her deputy received the initial warning from OSC, they doubled down,” Chamberlain said. “They probably guessed there would be no consequences, and the OSC appears to have proven them correct.”
From Althouse, "We’re looking into finding ways to build a mechanism of coordination between all the swing states so that... Muslim Americans will come out in all of these states, and that Mr. Biden will lose each and every one of them." "Said Hassan Abdel Salam, "a professor at the University of Minnesota and a member of the #AbandonBiden National Coalition," quoted in "Swing-state Muslim leaders launch campaign to ‘abandon’ Biden in 2024/The bubbling anger among Arab and Muslim Americans over the president’s handling of the Israel-Hamas conflict could threaten his chances of reelection" (Politico). They may not vote for Trump, but they won't vote for Biden. It matters.
Althouse again, "I used to always hear Democrats saying, 'The election was all just Trump’s racist appeals,' but I actually went to the rallies in 2015." ""He would talk about bad trade deals. He promised to bring back Glass-Steagall, which is the bill regulating finance. He talked about health insurance. He was going to do a plan that actually would cover all Americans and wasn’t going to be like a rat’s maze. And if you compare the ads, his ads were overwhelmingly more policy-oriented than Clinton’s. She was really just attacking him as a bad guy and it didn’t work. Said John Judis, quoted in "Where Have All the Democrats Gone? John Judis and Ruy Teixeira explain how liberals lost their way" (The Free Press)(transcript and audio)(Judis and Teixeira are political analysts)." Also, "Trump attempts to spin anti-democracy, authoritarian criticism against Biden/The former president declared his 2024 campaign as a 'righteous crusade' against 'tyrants and villains.'" "That's the headline at The Washington Post. . . . But isn't it funny that those who have supported expansive executive power over the decades are now crying over the prospect of its falling into the hands of a President they loathe? You had a system of checks and balances, but you didn't like it."

Althouse catches Nancy Pelosi using a gay slur on George Santos We were kicking him, and he moved his ass. "Pelosi calls Santos a ‘coward’ for leaving chamber before expulsion vote
closed"
(The Hill). "
“This is not a casual vote for us. It’s something you take
very seriously and and he should have taken it seriously,” Pelosi told
reporters following the vote, adding that he “should have been man about
it.”Be a man — I hadn't heard that in a while. Was that a one-time pot
shot, just for Santos? He's gay, right? On any other day, you'd be canceled
for advising the gay man... or any man... to "be a man." But on very special
days, there's one person who liberates everyone to say what they really
think."

Stacy McCain sees the great battle as Matt Taibbi vs. the Borg
The work done by Taibbi and his “Twitter Files” colleague Michael Shellenberger in exposing the abuses of the “anti-misinformation” racket ought to be universally admired. Indeed, I would argue, it might have gotten a Pulitzer Prize were it not for the fact that the establishment media are now pro-censorship, insofar as that censorship is aimed at silencing “the far right” (i.e,, anyone who doesn’t vote Democrat) and other critics of the Biden administration. Establishment journalists generally have become “Democratic operatives with bylines,” so that questions about what is true and what is important are, in their minds, determined by the immediate interests of The Party. We see this partisan bias, for example, in discussions around Joe Biden’s fitness for office. There are lots of journalists now raising alarms about Biden’s advanced age and cognitive decline, topics they once would have dismissed as “right-wing disinformation” or “Fox New talking points.”
Why the change? Simple — polls indicate Biden would likely lose a 2024 rematch with Trump. Anything that jeopardizes Democratic Party control of the federal government is bad, according to the media hivemind, and so the idea of “pulling a Torricelli” (i.e., switching candidates to prevent a certain defeat) is now a topic the media is willing to discuss.

At Campus Reform, Nearly 3 in 4 Jewish students report experiencing anti-Semitism following Hamas attack "Before the attack, 67% of Jewish students said they felt physically safe on campus.

“This phrasing was a terrible mistake, as it implies that until recently Jews have been strangers to persecution, when the opposite is true,” Sarandon, 77, said in a statement on Instagram Friday.Speaking of mistakes, from the Free Bacon, Court Orders Jussie Smollett Back to Jail for Hate Crime Hoax.
She then listed some of the horrific acts of violence Jews have had to endure like the “genocide in Europe” and “the Tree of Life shooting in Pittsburgh.”
“I deeply regret diminishing this reality and hurting people with this comment,” Sarandon added. “It was my intent to show solidarity in the struggle against bigotry of all kinds, and I am sorry I failed to do so.”
Actress Julianna Margulies is feeling the heat after making some comments on the antisemitism she sees from black Americans. She dared to express her opinion about the lack of support by the Black and LGBTQ communities for Israel in the wake of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack.
Now she must be punished. I don’t make the rules. Margulies is Jewish. She was a guest on the Back Room podcast hosted by Andy Ostroy. Margulies commented that “the entire black community” may have been “brainwashed to hate Jews.” She pointed out that they would likely be the first people to be beheaded in a Muslim country. She went on to say that their heads would be used like soccer balls. Tough stuff, to be sure, but she didn’t say anything ground-breaking.
Her sweeping generalization that the entire black community is conditioned to hate Jews was what probably got her into trouble. White people aren’t allowed to criticize black people on just about anything.
