I’ve said this before but it seems important. Because border deportations are almost zero now - thank you President Trump - total deportation numbers are now running behind Obama’s! Interior deportations are much harder and take longer.)

Gazans have hit the streets in unprecedented numbers to challenge Hamas rule.
Hey antisemitic Coachella,
After my people, young Israelis, were slaughtered, sexually abused, and kidnapped into Gaza’s hell by Palestinian jihadist terrorists at the Nova music festival just recently, you have the audacity to portray this vile blood libel as part of your so-called "music celebrations" - nothing more than a festival of h…

In the other place - X - Ross Barkan is assailing Jesse Singal for his tenacious and courageous exposure of the fast-tracking of sex reassignment for children, mainly gay and lesbian, without any solid medical basis.
He is trying to argue that good journalism should not happen if some bigots might want to deploy it for nefarious ends.

I'm in the Suburbs of Baltimore, Jewel of the Patpsco, home of the esteemed Johns Hopkins Hospital. They've just enacted mask mandates for everyone at all medical facilities.
Johns F#@&ing Hopkins. Home of The Science™.
My PCP's in the GMBC network and they haven't announced yet but it's surely coming.
The concern which you Suzie - may I call you Suzie Crabtree? - rightly identify is that, if our doctors are all the sudden wearing Scrubs and Masks when they used to just wear Re…
Masking has been demonstrated to be thoroughly useless for preventing the wearer from contracting or transmitting aerosolized viruses. Worse, they've been destructive.
Young children who didn't see smile on stranger's faces, who have had their speech stunted by not seeing mouths.
Or for any of us - we stopped seeing faces. We're driven by faces. Dogs, not coincidentally, are Master Hooman Face Readers. We walked past one another, no eye contact, no shared humanity.
