How Dumb is CNN?

Legacy media outlets are so grotesquely biased that it is easy to forget how incompetent they are, as well. Here is a case in point from CNN: (X) They’ve got Tel Aviv on the Golan Heights, and Sderot, which is frequently in the news for being attacked by Gazan rockets, on the West Bank. I think it is a matter of common knowledge that Tel Aviv is on the Mediterranean. Would CNN produce a map showing Istanbul in the middle of Asia Minor? Or Venice up in the Dolomites? I don’t know, maybe they would. I know good help is hard to find, but how do you hire someone

Happy Wednesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) The most polarizing politician of the last 40 years is not, as leftists would have us believe, Donald Trump. For my money, it’s none other than His High Holiness the Lightbringer, Barack Obama.
Seriously, the dude is irritating.
Unfortunately, half the country thinks that he’s the most brilliant man to do brilliant things in the history of brilliance. Anyone who disagrees with that, according to them, is — say it with me — racist.
One day, historians may decide that they are tired of embarrassing themselves and critically assess Obama’s legacy as president, which is especially awful when one is discussing foreign policy.
Viral Neo-Communism
1 reply
The virus of globalist neo-communism has spread around the world with massive help from United Nation’s Agenda 21 now morphed into Agenda 2030, its myriad of paid NGOs, Marxist billionaires, the global warming lie turned into the very profitable climate change industry with its “green energy” agenda, and the Great Reset of the World Economic Forum and its affiliates. This type of neo-communism, rebranded as “woke,” is more dangerous than ever as its social engineering goals threaten to control every facet of our lives, and puts in jeopardy the very existence of humanity itself.
WASHINGTON - New data shows there have been over 800 carjackings in D.C. this year – more than double the total number of carjackings reported in 2022. That means the District is averaging almost three carjackings per day since the top of the year.
Now, Metropolitan Police are looking for a group involved in one of the most recent armed carjackings in Southeast.
Around 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 17, officers were called to the 4200 block of 53rd Street where a man had just been carjacked at gunpoint.
Video released by police showed a black Nissan park behind a Jeep Cherokee on 53rd Street. Police say three suspects hopped
Happy Tuesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) Ever since September 11, 2001, Democrats have insisted that the real problem with Islamic terrorists killing innocent people is that innocent people might take a dim view of Islamic terrorists.
How dare we?
We’ve had a few discussions in the past couple of weeks about the Democrats’ inability to differentiate good from evil. Several times during the first week after Hamas decided to launch a terror spree by slaughtering a bunch of kids at a music festival, it appeared as if some Democrats might finally be breaking free from the hive mind and its knee-jerk Islamophobia chorus. I suspected that most of them
Having an open border also means having a big target on our backs. Beyond the millions of invaders, a more motivated group might decide to take a shot.
And this CBP memo raises some serious questions.
A Customs and Border Protection (CBP) memo is warning staff of the risk that foreign terrorist fighters engaged in the Israel-Hamas conflict could soon be attempting to enter the United States via the besieged southern border.
In a Friday memo by the agency’s San Diego Field Office’s intelligence unit, obtained by Fox News, the agency warns that individuals “inspired by, or reacting to, the current Israel-Hamas conflict may attempt travel to or from the area of hostilities

Biden Doubles Down on Stupid

Presidentish Joe Biden has a message of peace and love on Monday in the aftermath of the most deadly attack on Jewish civilians since the Holocaust. It did, however, leave me with one question: did the White House’s Dr. Feelgood get your daily dosage wrong, Mr. President?
Before we get to Biden’s latest tone-deaf gaffe that had all the timing and grace of a child’s birthday party clown opening up his act with “The Aristocrats,” let me briefly set the stage for you.
Two weeks ago, the Gaza-based Hamas terror organization did something new in the sad annals of human atrocities. Following a barrage of 5,000 or more rockets,

'Grave concerns' 31 replies
Sen. Peter Welch, D-Vt., said Monday he has "grave concerns" about Israel's potential ground invasion into Gaza amid an ongoing war prompted by Hamas' terror attack on the Jewish State.
In a statement released Monday, Welch said he has "grave concerns about the wisdom and military efficacy" of an Israeli ground invasion in Gaza and that there is "no doubt" an imminent ground invasion would be "catastrophic for innocent Palestinians in Gaza and jeopardize urgent efforts to save hostages."
"Israel has the absolute right to attack Hamas for the brutal, heinous slaughter of more than 1,400 Israelis and the taking of more than 200 hostages,"
Following the Hamas terrorist attacks against Israel and the ensuing outbreak of another war in the Middle East, influential people in Washington, D.C., are already calling for the U.S. to take in Palestinian refugees.
They couldn’t be more wrong.
While the war is still in its early days, it is expected that up to one million Palestinians living in Gaza could soon become refugees. Progressive members of Congress and anti-borders groups are already claiming the U.S. has a responsibility to take in some of these refugees, but fail to mention that importing migrants from an area that glorifies and idolizes terrorists could put the national security of the U.S. at grave risk.
According to recent polling by the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics, nearly half of President Joe Biden’s supporters believe the government should clamp down on objectionable speech.
That’s right, among individuals intending to vote for Biden in 2024, 47% think “the government should regulate or restrict the expression of views considered discriminatory or offensive.”
Considered “discriminatory or offensive” by whom, exactly?
Sadly, the results weren’t a whole lot different for supporters of Donald Trump, 35% of whom purport to believe the government should exercise this control.
Fools, all.
Come to think of it, I find the poll and this report offensive, so I want government to regulate them.
Happy Thursday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) Joe Biden’s record of making any situation demonstrably worse simply by showing up is still intact after his trip to Israel. As I said in yesterday’s Briefing, all of us on this side of the aisle knew that nothing good could come of President LOLEightyonebillion being in the midst of such a delicate situation and — boy howdy were we right. Trainwreck Joe’s progressive policy peddling blitz has undoubtedly made the world less safe.
That seems to be one of the only things that Biden is good at.
As is so often the case with Joe Biden, even when he does manage to get
The Biden administration is already in hot water for appeasing Iran and unfreezing of $6 billion in Iranian assets which played a role in the attack that sparked the ongoing Israel-Hamas war. But did the Biden administration know about the attack in advance, too?
The Biden administration is trying to cover up what they knew about the planned assault on Israel, according to a report from Tablet Magazine. The outlet notes there have been conflicting stories leaked by U.S. intelligence services regarding their knowledge of Hamas’ assault on Israel. These leaks suggest that some in the administration fear that they may be held responsible for missing critical information

NEW YORK -- Mayor Eric Adams made a stunning announcement Tuesday on the city's asylum seeker crisis housing crunch. He said it is so severe he's actively planning for the day migrants will have to sleep outside. The mayor did not utter the words "asylum seekers will be sleeping in Central Park," but because the city has had to close a number of shelters in recent weeks because they did not meet the fire code, he said he's now looking for large outdoor spaces where asylum seekers can live. "I don't know how to get this any clearer. When you are
A new study out of Norway is exactly what was needed to shut down the climate alarmists. Its findings show that man has not set fire to his home planet.
Right from the top, in the abstract not 10 lines into the study, the authors get to the point.
“Using theoretical arguments and statistical tests we find,” the researchers say, “that the effect of man-made CO2 emissions does not appear to be strong enough to cause systematic changes in the temperature fluctuations during the last 200 years.”
In other words, our words, the greenhouse effect is so weak
At last, Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives successfully elected the 56th Speaker of the House on Wednesday afternoon following multiple rounds of unsuccessful ballots and withdrawn nominations, selecting Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana to lead the lower chamber.
The final roll-call vote saw Johnson land 220 votes while Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) received 209. Needing only a simple majority, Johnson easily secured his victory as previous opposition to House Republicans' speaker-designees vanished entirely on the first ballot of Johnson's bid.

The superintendent of a New Jersey school district banned official school-wide Halloween celebrations under the guise of “diversity, equity, and inclusion,” claiming the festivities may offend people from various cultural and religious backgrounds.
Families of students in the South Orange & Maplewood School District district received a letter on Oct. 6 from Dr. Ronald G. Taylor, the superintendent of SOMD, asking parents to reflect upon how school-sponsored Halloween celebrations exacerbate inequity.
Oh FFS.
The story about why Israel has yet to make a ground invasion of Gaza is becoming clear, and it is yet another embarrassment for the United States under Joe Biden.
Israel has been prepared to enter Gaza to eliminate Hamas, but the ground invasion keeps getting delayed. The reason why?
The US is unprepared to defend US military installations in the area. This is pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. However, I am not sure that the Biden Administration isn’t just pressuring Israel to delay for other reasons as well, given their neverending expressions of concern for Gaza.
Israel has agreed, for now, to a request from the U.S.

Rep. Mike Johnson, the new Speaker, is one of the lower-profile lawmakers in Congress but has surged to victory and now holds the most powerful position in the U.S. House of Representatives.
The Louisiana Republican is a father-of-four who entered Congress in 2017 and is serving his fourth term.
Johnson, 51, is regarded as an intellectual, and a family man, and his success rescued the House from an ongoing state of chaos. On Tuesday, he became his party's fourth choice for House Speaker nominee in just three weeks after the historic ousting of Kevin McCarthy earlier this month.
So, as Johnson takes the gavel, who is the quiet bespectacled politician
In a dramatic reversal, Hollywood’s writers union has apologized for refusing to condemn the Hamas terror attacks in Israel that have left 1,400 dead, with union leaders issuing a public message of contrition Tuesday following several days of mounting pressure from within its own ranks.
In an e-mail to members obtained by multiple outlets, Writers Guild of America, West leaders apologized for the “tremendous pain” they caused by refusing to condemn the mass murder of Jews despite the guild’s history of taking controversial political stances, including support for Black Lives Matter and endorsing Joe Biden’s presidential campaign in 2020.
Hong Kong — An American politician has been arrested in Hong Kong for carrying a gun into the city, according to a charge sheet seen by CNN, in what he has called an “honest mistake.”
Washington state senator Jeff Wilson was arrested on Saturday at Hong Kong International Airport and charged with possession of a firearm without a license, the charge sheet states, an offense punishable by up to 14 years in prison and a fine of more than $12,000.
Wilson appeared in the Sha Tin Magistrates’ Court on Monday and was granted bail, according to public broadcaster RTHK. The Republican state senator, whose full name is Stephen J. Wilson,
A new poll found that nearly two-thirds of New Yorkers blame President Biden for the migrant crisis, raising national security, financial and other concerns in the Empire State. According to a Sienna College poll released Tuesday, 64% of New Yorkers disapprove of the job Biden is doing to address the recent influx of migrants in the state as of October. That includes 48% of Democrats who flunk Biden for his handling of the crisis, 91% of Republicans and 72% of independents. The poll found 46% of New Yorkers disapprove and just 30% approve of how New York City Mayor Eric Adams has addressed the influx of migrants
On Wednesday, Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) revealed that the FBI received ‘criminal information’ from over 40 confidential human sources on Joe, Hunter, and James Biden – dating back to Joe Biden’s time as Vice President.
According to Grassley’s letter which was obtained by Fox News, the task force in the Washington Field Office shut down the reporting from the sources which eventually halted investigative activity.
“Based on the information provided to my office over a period of years by multiple credible whistleblowers, there appears to be an effort within the Justice Department and FBI to shut down investigative activity relating to the Biden family,”
