“Claim”? You mean the tunnels they found the hostages in?
🇮🇱🇵🇸 Israeli forces continue their efforts to clear land formerly occupied by Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. The now barren landscape was further scarred as forces detonated several kilometers of underground tunnels they claim were used by Hamas rebels. Looks like they'll be ready to start pouring the foundations for those high-rise luxury condos and resorts soon... Writer: Jamie

When the rest of the world shoots “bullets,” we shoot “sniper bullets.”
Hamas never shot 1,000 kids and women in the head with sniper bullets. The IDF did.

And by “Egyptian extremists” you mean the Muslim Brotherhood.
⛔️History: On October 6, 1981, during a military parade in Cairo commemorating the 1973 the War, Sadat was killed by members of the Egyptian extremists-The lead assassin, shouted “I have killed Pharaoh” while attacking with grenades and gunfire‼️

Where’s Ben Crump?
London — I’m at the memorial attended by thousands of DEI supporters and leftist radicals for disgraced academic and serial hoaxer Jason Arday. The speakers repeatedly target academic @nathancofnas for breaking the story about Arday’s plagiarism. Labour MP Diane Abbott was one of the speakers who smeared Cofnas. Arday k—lled himself after journalists revealed he had lied about his academic work and purported major life accomplishments. He delayed the truth by siccing police and lawyers on journalists early on. Support my journalism at ngocomment.com

“Tell us you want to add another $1B in losses to the $2B you’ve already set fire to without saying you want to lose another $1B to the other $2B you’ve set fire to.”
NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly told @CraigSMorgan there's no news on a potential expansion to Arizona, but reiterated the league's interest in the market.

By the time a student has reached 3rd grade, the city of Chicago has spent more than $80,000 on him/her. But who’s counting.
The problem with America’s education system is that we’ve given up on 50% of our kids by 3rd grade.

Exposes state AG lawsuits against Paramount-Warner merger for the legal shakedowns they are. If so-called “team” can raise $50m from PE and pose an immediate threat, where are the barriers to entry and monopolistic conditions?
CBS fired the team that made 60 Minutes must-watch TV. Now that team is reportedly building a $50M rival, with the same reporters, the same producers, the same rigor. You don’t get to keep the brand if you let the talent walk.

Tell us you live in a media bubble without telling us you live in the media bubble.
The scale of the cuts at the Washington Post last week, coupled with the lack of any sense of a strategy other than retreat, is beyond demoralizing, David Remnick writes. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/Qx…

Considering neither have experience in producing goods and services, nor newspapers, nor media in general, this sounds like a disaster.

Speech is violence. Abortion is healthcare. Daycare is infrastructure. Closing a business is murder. Tell me you’re a NYer who couldn’t work with a conservative columnist in Texas without telling me you’re a NYer who couldn’t work with a conservative columnist in Texas.
We are witnessing a murder at The Washington Post. This massacre will be the enduring legacy of Jeff Bezos and Will Lewis and the leadership who stood by. But please read my love letter to the paper that felt like home, and will always be my “we.” ❤️‍🩹theatlantic.com/politics/202…

Because everyone wants to know the opinion of a writer who slept with her married boss.
Sally Quinn to @PamelaBrownCNN just now: "Everybody is in a state of grief. It's really like, in the last year, it's just been one funeral after the other... It's just tragic, what's happening to the Washington Post."

Nothing like wearing the Winless Creamsicle Unis from 1976 (0-14) to recreate that fighting spirit. Sometimes history is lost on students. Hurts even worse when it’s lost on adults.
This is so great. The massive amount of work behind the scenes for this game has been an incredible job by so many- especially @SportsTampaBay .

One of my favorite operas, ruined.
For the first time ever, I’m leaving an opera halfway through. The Met’s Carmen is about a wicked ICE agent abusing a tatted-up OnlyFans girl on a grey and dirty stage supposed to resemble the US southern border. Another piece of truth and beauty destroyed by the Commies.

Vice President JD Vance delivers a heartfelt message to the legend Sylvester Stallone, honoring his career defined by grit, resilience, and the true spirit of America. This is extremely powerful: “He's told stories about normal Americans, about the grit, about the resiliency, about the virtues that actually make the American nation tick, and what makes the American people one of such incredible character.” “If I think about why my grandmother, the woman who raised me Sly, why she loved she loved your movies so much. It's because she didn't see people like us on the big screen that much. She saw working class people, people of humble beginnings, people who worked their asses off and made the American dream a reality, not because it was handed to them, but because they worked hard, had good support, and they got a little lucky along the way.” “That, to me, is the legacy of your entire career in film and television, and that is the legacy the Kennedy Center will be celebrating over the next few days.” “Life is not about how hard you can hit, but about how hard you can get hit and get back up and keep moving forward. This guy has been able to put together a career that has defined this country's entertainment for really decades.” “Let me just say to all of you, but especially to Sylvester Stallone and your incredible family, Merry Christmas. And may we be as courageous as your people have been for a very long time.”

🚨NEW: Hunter Biden launches *HORRIFIC* attack on @mirandadevine, who covered his scandals🚨 "There's no ethics in what someone as horrendously ugly as Miranda Devine — physically and in terms of her ethics — does ... They're wh*res for money and she does it because she makes money." "And when she goes to sleep at night I'm sure she sleeps just fine — but I don't know anybody that is going to be mourning her when she's gone." @DailyCaller

Most people want to be the dog, the car or the top hat. Lefties want to be the Planning Board. That’s what is wrong with the Abundance movement.
Nothing would advance the Abundance movement more than inventing and popularizing a version of Monopoly where the more houses you build the more rents become affordable.

“I’ve carefully reviewed it” says the non-lawyer. What, Charlie Kirk wasn’t available?
I've carefully reviewed the big tariff decision finding @RealDonaldTrump's emergency tariffs to be unlawful. It is wrong and should be overturned by the Supreme Court. The ability to impose foreign tariffs in response to a national emergency may seem like a significant power, but similar grants of authority have been made by Congress throughout history, especially in foreign policy. And a plain reading of the relevant law obviously grants the President authority to impose certain tariffs during declared national emergencies. The statute directly empowers the President to "investigate, block during the pendency of an investigation, regulate, direct and compel, nullify, void, prevent or prohibit, any acquisition, holding, withholding, use, transfer, withdrawal, transportation, importation or exportation of, or dealing in, or exercising any right, power, or privilege with respect to, or transactions involving, any property in which any foreign country or a national thereof has any interest by any person, or with respect to any property, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States." To suggest that this expansive language permitting him to completely block and regulate trade during a foreign policy somehow excludes tariffs is illogical. As the dissent aptly states: "Taxing through tariffs is just a less extreme, more flexible tool for pursuing the same objective of controlling the amount or price of imports that, after all, could be barred altogether." If Congress doesn't like the Trump emergency, Congress can repeal or amend the underlying law. In the meantime, the courts have no business interfering with President Trump's foreign policy decisions, which are also backed by a powerful congressional statute.
