Tehran’s Hormuz Offer Reveals Its Real Dilemma. "The Islamic Republic faces two dangers at once. Continued war drains the
resources it needs to govern. Yet wartime conditions have made it easier for
the state to define and contain domestic opposition as a national security
threat. Tehran needs economic relief, but an agreement over the Strait of
Hormuz will not resolve the crisis that already existed between the government
and Iranian society." Bob Spencer at PJM notes Iran Touts Islam's Teachings of Equality. Reality, As Always, Is

"Carney is doing this, once again, to jack up opinion in Canada for a new

otherwise mask his unpopular socialist globalist agenda."

He’s planning to spend $607 MILLION to renovate… Wait for it… 1,148 apartments. That’s roughly $528,746 PER APARTMENT. For renovations. $607 million is an insane amount of money. Private developers renovate projects with thousands of apartments for a fraction of that. Give $607 million to a Hasidic developer from Brooklyn and he’ll renovate half the city, put up a whole neighborhood of new buildings, and probably still come in under budget."

Letitia James Takes Over Cornell 7 Case (She Issued Her Judgement Days Ago).
Coddled Affluent Professional @feelsdesperate, "
Hochul is a very unpopular governor and her aids probably told her to do this because they think it will rally the base. The only thing that it will do is further delegitimize the prosecutorial apparatus. If you’re a ‘reasonable Dem’ this should be a blackpill because Hochul is a Catholic from Buffalo - she’s supposed to be a sensible, moderating force and not a rabid, unprincipled ideologue." Quote Phil Holloway @PhilHollowayEsq, "New York Governor Kathy Hochul has removed local DA Matthew Van Houten from the Cornell 7 case She says she lost confidence. And has thus appointed New York AG Letitia James. Politics has fully infected this case."
Buck Sexton @BuckSexton, "
You appoint Laetitia James as special prosecutor because you want a predetermined outcome, not an investigation or an impartial prosecutorial decision based on fact and law Hochul knows this. Everyone does." Insty,

Lol, democrats plan to gas up mentally ill females by highlighting the Clancy trial, the Cornell 7 story, and the execution of the first female inmate in decades is kind of ingenious but utterly destructive long term.

I bet they highlight a few more before November." Dan McLaughlin at NRO explores

It is necessary for you to believe this young woman did not lustily agree to be gangbanged. By white males (also a brown one and an Asian one but never mind that.) Through the first Tuesday in November, anyway. After that, never mind. The fun part will be the slander suits, prosecutorial abuse suits after the dust settles."

The government revised its guidelines Oct. 1, making the second and third requirements stricter.” Those rules aren’t xenophobia — they’re just good sense."

Reality Slaps College Graduates In The Face "The job market is booming for young people – but not those with college degrees. Are employers finally coming to realize that colleges these days mainly produce coddled, know-nothing, whiny, entitled brats? A recent analysis from Burning Glass Institute found that unemployment among those 22-34 years old without a college degree is lower than it’s been in decades, but those with college diplomas are having a much harder time finding work than before." The college educated have not done a good job of demonstrating their usefulness.
