Does the Washington Post have any credibility at all?
They censored this cartoon below after a few critics absurdly howled 'racism' -- all for depicting a Hamas spokesman accurately, and creating a thoughtful message that Hamas's howls about civilian attacks are disingenuous, given Hamas's war on Israeli civilians, including the 200-some hostages they hold. upposedly, they complained about the nose, expropriating from the complaints of caricatures directed against Jews done by anti-Semites.
Yeah, sure.
Did they want a little turned-up button nose on him?
And is Ramirez supposed to depict a terrorist spokesman holding hostages flatteringly?

Like an ignorant radical madrassa in some benighted fist-waving burg like Mogadishu or Kabul, George Washington University has allowed presumably students to project Jew-hating pro-Hamas statements on the wall of one of its august buildings in the heart of Washington, D.C. [Snip for tweet] "Glory to our martyrs"? "Divestment from Zionist genocide now"? "Free Palestine from the river to the sea"?
Had enough?
There's more. Adding insult to injury, check out the building they chose to spew their sickening Hamas slogans on:

Javier Milei, a far-right libertarian leading the polls in Argentina’s presidential election this month, has made a lot of contentious statements in recent years: Humans did not cause climate change; people should be able to sell their organs; his nation’s currency “is not even good as manure.”
But, to many Argentines, he has done something far worse: attacked the pope.
In 2020, Mr. Milei, a self-identifying Catholic, called Pope Francis an “imbecile” and “the representative of the Evil One on earth” because he defends “social justice.”

The deepening humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip is driving a wedge between Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley, two of the leading Republican presidential candidates, who deviated sharply on Sunday over whether the United States should help Palestinian refugees from the region ahead of an expected Israeli invasion.
In an appearance on the CBS morning show “Face the Nation,” Mr. DeSantis, the Florida governor, doubled down on remarks he had made one day earlier in Iowa, espousing a hard-line opposition toward helping civilians who have been thrust into the middle of the conflict.
“They teach kids to hate Jews,” he said. “The textbooks do not have Israel even on the map.

The San Diego County Registrar of Voters office found that around 1% of voters for the Nov. 7 special election may have received duplicate ballots, it was announced Wednesday.
According to the registrar, the mistake impacts voters in the county Board of Supervisors District 4 special election and less than a dozen voters in the city of Chula Vista special election. Following discovery of the duplicate ballots, the registrar’s office “immediately contacted the print and mailing vendor to determine what happened and how many voters were impacted,” according to a statement from the office. “After researching, they reported that around 7,500 or a little over 1% of voters

The border is in crisis, with a record-setting 304,162 migrants from more than 100 countries crossing into the U.S. in September alone. Experts are somewhat baffled as to why the surge is suddenly so strong now.
But not Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who has her answer to why it's happening: U.S. sanctions on Venezuela.
She spoke to Face the Nation's Margaret Brennan yesterday, and on the transcript, you can see she started out kind of Kamala Harris-ish, repeating herself and stating the obvious (emphasis added):

With COVID back, censorship is back, and now it's taken a particularly dangerous form, not just on social media, but on leading academic exchanges.
The huge Social Sciences Research Network (SSRN), run by Netherlands-based publishing house Elsevier, is not a site most people know about, but it is a behemoth in academia, extremely important to professors for getting their work out there and advancing within the academic community.
That's where censorship on COVID is happening, which could have far-reaching consequences for public policy and the free exchange of ideas.
SSRN's plain, bare-bones front page on its site describes itself this way:
Tomorrow´s Research Today
SSRN provides 1,265,565 research papers from 1,365,420 researchers in 70 disciplines.

Joe Biden found himself in Vietnam on Sunday. Returning from the G-20 summit in India, he made a pit stop there, supposedly to improve relations with that country as a means of checking China's aggressions.
Instead of saying 'Hello,' like normal presidents say, Biden greeted the Vietnamese with "Gooooood morning, Vietnam," rather shockingly bringing up a line from a movie that was all about the absurdities of the Vietnam War.
His performance was so bad

HAVANA - Cuba has uncovered a human trafficking ring that has coerced its citizens to fight for Russia in the war in Ukraine, its foreign ministry said on Monday, adding that Cuban authorities were working to "neutralize and dismantle" the network.
The statement from Cuba's foreign ministry gave few details, but noted the trafficking ring was operating both within the Caribbean island nation, thousands of miles from Moscow, and in Russia.
"The Ministry of the Interior...is working on the neutralization and dismantling of a human trafficking network that operates from Russia

Big Labor bosses have a problem: Despite their vitriolic rhetoric and a small number of loud online activists, most workers want nothing to do with unions.
A Gallup poll released last Labor Day spotlighted the issue: A strong majority of nonunion workers in the U.S. (58 percent) say they are “not interested at all” in joining a union, whereas just 11 percent say they are “extremely interested.”
Since it takes a majority of workers in a given workplace to support a union before monopoly union representation can be imposed, union organizers face a basic math problem — one that explains why only 6 percent of private-sector workers are unionized today.

Chinese nationals have accessed U.S. military bases and other facilities dozens of times, U.S. officials said, according to a new report from The Wall Street Journal.
Government agencies like the Defense Department and the FBI held a review the past year to limit the events, the Journal reported. Officials allegedly call the people involved in the incidents “gate-crashers” and have espionage concerns about their occurrence. The gate-crashers have reportedly shown up in places like a U.S. missile range in New Mexico and a U.S. government rocket launch site in Florida.

What's a hog wallow to pigs who can't jump in?
Try a story in The Guardian, where greenie leftists parade their grievances about Joe Biden's bureaucratic obstacles keeping them from getting their hands on all that greenie cash in Joe Biden's Inflation Reduction Act: When President Joe Biden passed the Inflation Reduction Act a year ago, Adrien Salazar was skeptical.
The landmark climate bill includes $60bn for environmental justice investments – money he had fought for, as policy director for the leading US climate advocacy coalition Grassroots Global Justice Alliance (GGJA).
