Left-Wing Activists Are Controlling the Biden Administration
Three years into the disastrous Biden administration, we know that Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign promise to govern as a moderate is a steaming pile of malarkey. Biden is presiding over one of the most left-wing administrations in American history.
What you may not know is that George Soros-funded activists have a direct hotline into key Biden agencies that have a lot of power over our economy, and their influence is weakening America on the global stage. Fortunately for taxpayers, Republican lawmakers are shining a light on the revolving door between left-wing activists and the Biden administration.
Left-wing activists have a deeply dystopian view of the American economy and its role in the world. Progressives believe that capitalism is an inherently unfair system designed to make the rich richer and the poor poorer. To progressives, large American companies should be chopped down to size and smothered with red tape, not celebrated as success stories. Instead of defending American economic interests abroad, progressives cheer for collusion between Biden bureaucrats and their European counterparts to tax and weaken American companies.
The left’s America Last economic attitude is the tie that binds a constellation of front groups funded by left-wing billionaires and foundations like George Soros, Pierre Omidyar, Chris Hughes, and the Hewlett Foundation. These groups all push for antitrust legislation that would give Biden bureaucrats sweeping new power over the economy, and advocate for Big Tech and corporate media censorship of conservative viewpoints.

Since its founding, Israel has been fighting enemies who have continually sought its annihilation but today’s wars – military, cognitive, and diplomatic – are presenting an existential threat unlike anything it has confronted since perhaps 1973. While the Islamic Republic of Iran has unleashed not just proxies in the form of Hamas’ attack on October 7th, Hezbollah’s 150,000 missiles aimed at the country, and Palestinian Islamic Jihad and other terrorist organizations infiltrating the West Bank; in an unprecedented attack, it has now directly joined the war to destroy the Jewish homeland. While 133 hostages, both dead and alive, remain captive in Hamas’ terror tunnels, Israelis are moving back to divisive rhetoric as to exactly how to bring them home and its war cabinet that united former political foes appears to be possibly fracturing with its own disagreements. On top of it all, while the U.S. initially seemed to actually have Israel’s back, the Biden administration’s own domestic political calculations have led to very dangerous daylight between the U.S. and Israel that seemingly emboldens Israel’s enemies. Joining us to discuss all of this from the perspective of a Member of the Knesset is MK Ohad Tal.
About the Speaker: MK Ohad Tal is an Israeli politician who serves as a Member of Knesset for the Religious Zionist Party. He Chairs the Knesset Committee for Public Enterprises and is a Member of the Foreign Affairs and Defense, Finance, and Immigration, Absorption and Diaspora Affairs Knesset Committees.
MK Tal was elected to the 25th Knesset following the 2022 general elections, after serving for many years in several high-level positions in the non-formal Jewish education and diaspora relations arenas.
Under his tenure as Chairman of the Knesset Committee for Public Enterprises, the Committee passed laws whose main purpose is to lower the cost of living in Israel and reduce regulation and bureaucracy in the financial system as well as developing and securing a Jewish presence in the Negev and the Galilee areas.
MK Tal is an active member of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, and from the beginning of Operation Iron Swords he has led several initiatives to secure Israel’s military and security position.
He Chairs the Knesset Caucus for U.S. – Israel Relations and is the Chair of the parliamentary friendship caucus with Australia, Guatemala and Honduras.
MK Tal holds both an Executive MBA in Public Policy and Administration from Hebrew University and a BA in Education Administration from Bar Ilan University.
He is married to Tamar (nee Shachel), the director of finance and human resources at the "Daat" network of high schools and religious youth villages. The couple has four children, and they live in Efrat in the Judean Hills.

Unearthing the Story Behind the Gazan Mass Graves
Social media and some traditional news outlets have been abuzz with claims that mass graves unearthed in Gaza are evidence of mass killings of Palestinians by Israelis and that some of those found inside the graves show signs of being tortured and killed execution-style with their hands tied behind their backs.
However, much like other sensationalist news stories about Israel’s conduct during its ongoing war against Hamas in Gaza, the story of the mass graves being propounded online and by some media outlets is a mixture of deception, falsehoods, and a reliance on biased sources.

gee note : the people have more sense than our president
Poll: 72% of Americans back Israeli operation in Gaza
New Harvard-Harris poll shows US voters continue to support Israel against Hamas despite widespread college protests, administration opposition to Rafah op.
Nearly three-quarters of American voters support an Israeli military action in Rafah to eliminate Hamas and end the war, according to a Harvard-Harris poll.
72% of respondents said that they support an IDF operation in Rafah, while 80% support Israel in the war in general. 28% said that “back off now and allow Hamas to continue running Gaza" rather than go into Rafah.
Two-thirds of respondents said that Israel is attempting to avoid causing civilian casualties in Gaza, while one-third said that Israel is not attempting to avoid civilian casualties.
68% of respondents said that they oppose the imposition of a permanent ceasefire without the return of all of the hostages still held by Hamas in Gaza. 32% do support such a ceasefire that leaves hostages in Hamas's hands.
The poll was released as university and college campuses across the US have been rocked by large anti-Israel protests over the last two weeks. On April 15, protesters blocked roads and bridges in multiple cities throughout the US.
The survey demonstrates that support for Israel remains high in the US despite the protests and the spread of pro-Hamas propaganda.
Previous surveys have shown that support for Israel is lowest and support for the Hamas terrorist organization is highest among young Americans in their late teens or early 20s.
The Biden Administration has been attempting to pressure or otherwise convince Israel not to embark on an operation in Rafah to eliminate the last of Hamas's battalions and free the remaining hostages.
