If you want to see grace under pressure, Lee Zeldin is your man. Making a speech, having somebody attack you with a blade, deflecting said blade, and finishing your speech—that’s about as grace-under-pressure-ish as you can get. It’s exactly what Ernest Hemingway had in mind when he used those words, “grace under pressure,” to describe the essence of courage. Furthermore, if you think that liberal anti-law and anti-order policies are a farce, the attack on Zeldin, a Republican member of Congress now running for governor of New York, is your proof. As Breitbart News’ John Binder wrote of the Empire State’s turn ‘em loose policies,

If you're a New York voter, and your choice is between Zeldin and Hochul, how is there any debate on who you vote for?

As horrific as this whole attack and release of the perp has been; this will awaken even NY voters to contrast of the two. If I lived in NY and the voters choose Hochul, I would be on the first train out of the state. There is becoming a defining line between red & blue states, unfortunately.

Obviously, Zeldin should use this assassination attempt in every campaign attempt. ‘He tried to kill me, and he’s walking free the next day.’

Me too, #3. Where's Jimmy Page? Where's Robert Plant? John Paul Jones? Zeldin managed to grab the would be assassin's wrist and restrain him until security personnel could take away the knife and haul the crazed Democrat away. What bothers me is that the attack, appearing almost to have happened in slow motion, was not made with speed and precision, but if the attacker had been younger and had had training with dagger, Zeldin would have been terrible injured, if not killed. Inside an arm's length distance, a knife is a deadlier weapon than a gun, and isn't limited in capacity the way all guns are. An attacker with a knife can inflict damage with the speed of a Singer sewing machine. Reportedly the attacker is already free on no bail. Maybe he will try again. Apparently, since he is a Democrat, he is like the Lizard King: He can do anything.

This is so true! “It’s at least possible that the man who attacked Zeldin was heeding, in some way, Hochul’s urging of her supporters to “RSVP” to Zeldin events, which she provocatively characterized as hotbeds of “MAGA extremists.” If Dominion isn’t taken out of the equation, we will be left with this partisan hack for a long long time.

Lee Zeldin is a man I’ve been watching for some time. Really impressive. He would make a fine governor. WILL make a fine governor? Did you see the weapon? A cat face key ring fob made out of very rigid plastic. Intended for self-defense (most probably for a woman) Sold by a security company. $9.99.

Sorry, but this whole incident seems strange. - No police. - Lax security. - An attacker that uses a key chain for a weapon and stops to talk to his target first. He will only get one chance. - The target defends himself rather than putting distance between himself and the attacker expecting his security to intervene. What if the attacker had a knife or a gun? I will take the incident at face value, but it seems off. Could it have been staged? I have to imagine Zeldin needs publicity to fuel his campaign.

The fact that our Second Amendment right to bear arms is protected, or better stated “shall not be infringed,” is one that irks our friends on the left, perhaps more so than any other Constitutional right. Their attitude tends to be, “Damn you and your rights, we’ll do all the infringing we want.” They typically crank up their volume on such assertions after a tragic school shooting and do their best to ignore episodes that show the benefit of private gun ownership. After two brutal incidents in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, New York, in May, gun rights opponents were pushing hard on their narrative. Assault weapons are unnecessary, they told us.

A Liberia-flagged tanker carrying about 700,000 barrels of Russian fuel oil arrived in Cuba last week, the Latin American news website Infobae reported on Sunday, noting that the shipment demonstrated that Moscow was not only supporting Cuba’s communist regime but also finding outlets for oil stock shunned by the West in response to Russia’s latest war with Ukraine. “The Liberia-flagged Aframax tanker Suvorovsky Prospect arrived in Cuba’s Matanzas port [on July 14] carrying about 700,000 barrels of fuel oil, loaded at Russia’s Ust-Luga port. The cargo is worth some $70 million at market prices,” Reuters reported at the time.

Many may associate Martin with his 1999 smash hit, Livin’ La Vida Loca which made him a worldwide superstar, along with dozens of other successful songs over the years.

The WEF paper argues for the past 15 years, democracy has been in decline worldwide. To protect and promote freedom, “leading democracies must strengthen their economies and safeguard liberty.”

For so many Americans, particularly over the past ten years or so, politics is viewed as some sort of a game. You’re not voters, you’re fans, only the battle isn’t on a baseball field or a hockey rink, it’s within our government. It’s a phenomenon that has become increasingly evident on both sides of the political spectrum but is clearly more prevalent with our friends on the left. Just like we see with our favorite sports teams, so it is with our favorite political party or ideology. Perhaps next to a Georgia Bulldogs National Championship bumper sticker, we see a Biden-Harris decal displayed with equal pride.

The Walt Disney Company has given us a multitude of justifications for canceling our Disney Plus subscriptions, throwing away our Lion King DVDs, and pledging to never spend another nickel with the increasingly far-left wokesters controlling the once-great corporation. There has never been a company more worthy of the mantra: Go Woke, Go Broke. But regarding the patronizing of one of their key revenue streams, Disney World, there’s another reason we can add to the growing list motivating us to stay away. That reason comes not from anyone at Disney itself, but rather from the government running the show in the city which Disney World calls home: Orlando, Florida.

President Joe Biden’s job approval rating is down to the lowest of his presidency, 30 percent, and 57 percent disapproval roughly 18 months into his presidency, according to the CIVIQS rolling job-approval average as of July 2. Only 12 percent of respondents either did not approve or disapprove of the president. Thus, bringing his net job approval down to a negative 27. In fact, the poll also showed that Biden’s job approval is underwater in 48 states. The only two states in which he is above water are Hawaii (45 to 41 percent) and Vermont (44 to 39 percent).

And while the WEF says recycling old tech that uses these metals could lessen the impact of shortages, it’s simply not enough. “The complication is that we do not currently have enough metals in in circulation

Everywhere I go these days, the question I seem to hear most often is, "What’s wrong today? Why the violence, the shootings, the divisions, the vitriol in our nation, our cities, our society?"

I listen intently to the answers given to that plea by so many respected voices in the country.
