They advocate, believe and/or tolerate:
Get rid of police will stop crime. Open borders, allow in drugs and criminals is good for law enforcement and America.
Government spending money has no impact on inflation. Welfare builds character.
Weaken education and promote the unqualified also builds character and prepares one for life's rigors.
Stand aside while radicals burn down cities and disrupt commerce.
Allow criminals to roam streets, pillage, rob merchants, torment and get rid of bail.
Catch and release for illegals eventually becomes standard procedure for citizen lawbreakers.
Help fund family needs but not if father is present. (Moynihan railed against Democrat Welfare Programs and said they would break up the black family and did.)
War on poverty created more poverty, dashed hopes as it raised false expectations.
Cut military funding and training so have money and time to teach CRT.
Indoctrinate young children in sex before they can read and let them choose their sex.
Keep parents out of the loop when it comes to educating their children. Pierce Vs Society of Sisters [1925] Case dealt with the ability of states to impose compulsory education requirements for children and right of parents to decide how to educate their children.
Assist Iran in becoming nuclear shut down American energy development and plead with Saudis and Venezuela to drill more.
Look the other way as government imposes sentences on people you may not like and with whom you disagree and disregard their rights under the Constitution.
Apply laws unequally, weaponize politics, destroy people's character and stand aside as you allow people to disrupt lives of those you do not like by parading around their home.
Favor big government and more government spending as part of GDP and downplay patriotism. Teach our youth to hate America, to reject our constitution and our capitalistic system and then believe they will defend it.
You know the rest.

U.S. Senator Confirms FBI Agents Resign in Droves Over Allegations
(presidentialwire.com)- According to documents supplied by a whistleblower, hundreds of FBI agents chose to retire or resign between 2004 and 2020 rather than face penalties for allegations of sexual misconduct.
Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley reportedly received information from a whistleblower about a Justice Department internal report titled, “Retirements and Resignations During Unwelcome Sexual Conduct Adjudications.”
According to the report, 665 FBI employees, including 45 senior executive service-level employees, either retired or resigned after an investigation into misconduct was completed but before the Office of Professional Responsibility could issue a final disciplinary letter.
However, Senator Grassley, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, suggested that the number could be much higher since the 665 does not include agents who resigned or retired while a misconduct investigation was still underway.
The DOJ’s internal review was conducted in 2020 after the Associated Press reported that there had been “at least six sexual misconduct allegations involving senior FBI officials over the past five years.”
Grassley also received a second document from the whistleblower titled “Inconsistent Adjudication of Non-Consensual Sexual Misconduct.”
This document reveals that low-level FBI officials that were accused of misconduct often faced harsher penalties than those in senior positions accused of misconduct.
According to the document, “higher-graded employees, especially supervisors” were more likely to have their sexual misconduct cases adjudicated under a lesser offense code while “lower-graded employees” had their misconduct adjudicated under a harsher offense code. As a result, the “lower-graded employees” were more likely to face dismissal.
In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray, Grassley requested more information about the FBI’s internal sexual misconduct investigations. He called the FBI’s history of abuse and misconduct against women “outrageous and beyond unacceptable.”
In response to Grassley’s whistleblower disclosure, the FBI released a statement claiming that employees of the bureau who would commit sexual misconduct or harassment “have no place in the FBI.”

I spent a year searching for my racism and white privilege. Here's what I found
This week on our Substack, Ken Mahanes writes about “an extended period of soul searching since I first read Robin DiAngelo’s best-seller, White Fragility.” He notes that reading DiAngelo and Ibram X. Kendi led him to “conduct a thorough self-examination, to identify the racism within [himself], confess to it, and seek forgiveness.” What he found was different than what DiAngelo and Kendi might have expected.
The gurus of contemporary anti-racism admonish white men to confess their racism and seek forgiveness. Yet, in my self-reflection, I have come to realize that prejudicial or discriminatory behavior towards others have never been a part of who I am. Though I never expressed it then, I now recall that even as a child I knew deep-down that racial and class discrimination was not right. These convictions blossomed in my adult years as a husband, a father, and a pastor. My experience living in poverty, working, and worshiping alongside my black brothers and sisters indicate a far deeper bond than those superficial traits that supposedly divide us.

Ruth King posted article about Hanson and his comments regarding crime:
+++
The Unmentionable, Unspeakable, and Unutterable. Part Two Victor Davis Hanson
By Ruth King
Crime Everywhere
Now we come to the current crime wave.
We see weekly YouTube videos of the knock-out game, of Saturday night Al Capone-gangland massacring, of vulnerable joggers raped and killed, of a mother and her daughter carjacked, of a woman at a rail crossing murdered, of a petite woman pushed to death under a subway car, of an innocent young man simply executed on the streets, of an ax-wielding-nut terrorizing the helpless, of subway monsters assaulting with impunity all whom they please. Walking up to a stranger, slugging him in the temple, inflicting brain damage, all that is now a sort of blood sport.
Drug stores and food minimarkets in big cities are either of two sorts: one, they have been looted and ransacked; or, two, in fear of that fate, they have put almost all their goods behind protective wire or glass, cut back their nocturnal and morning hours, multiplied their security cameras, and hired guards.
There is also a growing, but again muted sense that inner-city, black-on-black gangland killing is now moving to the suburbs. Such violence is beginning more to target random strangers, often solitary drivers, pedestrians, and joggers.
And the reaction?
Zilch, except for a periodic rant from Joy Reid, Al Sharpton, the Obamas, or the Biden racialists about “racism,” as if a projectionist, unsubstantiated, Mark Milley/Lloyd Austin-like charge of “white rage” will preempt any American from saying out loud what millions of African Americans, Hispanics, Asians, and whites know to be true: that about four percent of the population (black males from ages 12-30) are committing over 50 percent of the violent assaults, rapes, and murders—that are reported.
Second, the additional truth that we dare not speak is that this two-year-long, post-George Floyd rampage is entirely predicated on three simple subtexts:
One, the black leadership—an Al Sharpton, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Louis Farrakhan, the Obamas, Oprah, LeBron James—who are so eager to talk of collectives, such as “whites” and “white people” as 230 million indistinguishable citizens who act as mindless racial automatons (as if George Soros, Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders, and Tucker Carlson by reason of their similar hue, can be predictably stereotyped) will never address this asymmetry. And if others do, they will seek to mute anyone by charges of racism! Do they have a duty to?
Only if in the past they have talked in collective terms about “blacks” and “whites” as monolithic groups. In that context, yes, if they have fashioned their careers as racial commentators, then they need to explain whether the black crime wave is important, irrelevant, so-so, due to racism, structural problems in the black community, government policies, etc.—anything that clarifies the striking asymmetrical crime statistics.
Two, the post-May 2020 climate of defunding the police, the new assertiveness of the Soros state and city attorneys, the culture of the lying Jussie Smollett, the smearing of the Covington kids, and the serial Duke pseudo-charges of racism, the prevalence of critical legal and critical race theories, the constant harangue of media elites on network news and cable television blaring out supposed pandemics of “white rage” and “white privilege,” and the utter racist screaming of prominent African American television talking heads from Ellie Mystal (“White people haven’t improved; I’ve just been able to limit my exposure to them.”), to Joy Reid (“In America, there’s a thing about both white vigilantism and white tears, particularly male, white tears. Really white tears in general, because that’s what Karens are, right? They can Karen-out and then as soon as they get caught, bring waterworks.”), to one of the many Pentagon diversity officers, to the current Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate in South Carolina—all have proverbially lowered the bar of acceptable racism.
That is, a young criminal correctly senses that if he commits a crime, he will likely not be arrested, if rarely arrested, not prosecuted, if even more rarely prosecuted, not convicted, and if even more rarely still convicted, not jailed, and if even more rarely again jailed, almost immediately released.
More disturbingly, the criminal also distills and digests the popular discourse—the media narratives, the professional sports rants, the message of hip-hop music, the wild charges of the progressive political industry, the pontifications of teachers and professors—and rightly concludes that somehow his violence is contextualized, if not seen as reparatory.
Killing a jogger, hijacking a young female’s car, or blowing out the brains of a random pedestrian is a sort of a comeuppance for “white privilege” and payback for “systemic racism” and retribution for “white rage.” Swarming the Wawa market, looting it, while a twerker does her performance art is not driven by poverty or racism but supposedly by a larger sense that it is permissible.
The more that privileged white and minority bicoastal elites lie that the country is utterly and perniciously racist, the more these protected aristocrats encourage a logical reparatory settling of scores.
This redirection of “black rage” is de facto aimed at the grandmother who ventures to the market, the lower-middle-class mom in a car with her daughter, the penniless white student, the Asian immigrant struggling to get to work, the Hispanic gas station worker, or the Hasidic Jewish mom with her stroller.
Three. The elite effort “to do something” does not entail moving into the inner city and setting up charter-school academies (cf. the Martha’s Vineyard mindset). It does not mean reintegrating the schools or firing criminally incompetent union teachers.
It does not mean a national campaign of reform from rappers, NBA superstars, and stand-up comedians all advising the fatherless to marry their children’s mother, to take on the responsibilities of the nuclear family, to serve as a model to whites, Asians, and Hispanics that blacks can offer superior instruction about the invaluable role of nuclear families and engaged fathers. Instead, it is to level 24/7 charges of racism, so that the wealthier and more privileged careers become, the more their trajectories are accelerated by charges of racism.

Damascus airport targeted again in alleged Israeli airstrike on Syria
The incident comes one month after the last alleged Israeli airstrikes in Syria.
Syrian air defenses intercepted an alleged Israeli missile attack over the capital Damascus and the southern region late on Friday and explosions were heard in the capital's vicinity, state media reported.
No information was immediately available on damages or casualties.
The target of the attack was the Damascus International Airport, according to international reports.
This attack comes after over a month without any alleged Israeli attacks in Syria. The last alleged Israeli strike in Syria happened on September 17th, and it also allegedly targeted the Damascus International Airport.
Why is Israel allegedly attacking Syria?
Israel has been accused by the Syrian government of conducting airstrikes for over a decade. The strikes come as part of the Israeli campaign of "war-between-wars" (known in Hebrew as MABAM), and its purpose is to disrupt the smuggling of advanced weapons from Iran through Syria and into the hands of Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Israel has been trying to prevent the establishment of an Iranian outpost on its border ever since the Syrian-Iranian alliance was formed.

Health and Sustainability are two key themes of the Jewish festival of Sukkot (Tabernacles) that Jews just finished celebrating. They also feature heavily in my latest positive Israel newsletter.
Recent medical innovations include protecting heart function, aid for dyslexics, trauma therapy and delivering healthy babies. Technical innovations help capture more solar energy, remove carbon dioxide from the air, and recycle everything from shoes, and old phones to construction materials. Israeli businesses are producing food from seaweed, pollinating tomatoes, manufacturing efficient electric motors, and desalinating seawater. Israeli startups are making a global impact with a World Sustainability award and the world's first sustainability database.
Read about Israel's successes in breeding rare species, the bird sanctuary in the heart of Tel Aviv, and unusual sea creatures visiting Eilat's coast. Finally, Israel again proves it will always come to the aid of victims of natural and humanitarian disasters.
