In one breath, Marjorie Taylor Greene apologizes for taking part in toxic politics. In the next breath, MTG claims Israel is trying to prevent the release of the Epstein files. Once a conspiracy theorist, always a conspiracy theorist.

If not for the forceful advocacy of her family, ICE may very well have deported Letitia Jacobo despite the fact that she is Native American. Should this ever come to pass we must ask the Trump Admin: Where exactly do we deport a Native American?

I am appalled by plans to fly the Palestinian flag over Toronto City Hall. It is an endorsement of violence against Jews. This comes only days after Jewish students were attacked by a pro-Hamas mob at Toronto Metropolitan University.

This evening, I saw Micky Dolenz at City Winery in Boston. Dolenz, who turned 80 this year, is the last surviving member of The Monkees & has outlived most of his peers. But Dolenz did not dwell on this as he still has some Monkeeing around to do.

Former MLB pitcher Steve Hargan passed away on 10/30. He was 83. He pitched with the Indians, Rangers, Blue Jays & Braves. In 1967, Hargan led the AL in CG, made the AST & was the last starting pitcher in MLB history to hit a walk-off HR. R.I.P.

It will be interesting to see if President Trump fully supports Elise Stefanik's bid to become NY Gov or if he will cut the legs from under her again. Whether Stefanik wins or loses depends on who New Yorkers hate more next year - Trump or Mamdani.

I have disagreed with Nancy Pelosi more than I have agreed with her. But she had President Trump's number especially during the 35-day government shutdown in 2018-2019. No wonder Trump call Pelosi "an evil woman". From Trump, that's a compliment.

I understand why former MLB player & current Toronto Blue Jays analyst Caleb Joseph claimed the better team didn't win the World Series. But the better team always win. The Dodgers were better than the Blue Jays by an inch. But every inch counts.

Voters in Somerville approved a pro-BDS measure that calls upon the city not to “engage in business that sustains Israel’s apartheid, genocide and illegal occupation of Palestine." This both delegitimizes Israel, but the standing of American Jews.

The world's 2nd most populous Jewish city has elected Zohran Mamdani as Mayor. Mamdani says he will be there when the mezuzah falls. But mezuzahs only fall by force. In which case, NY Jews can expect October 7th style attacks under Mamdani's watch.

Canadian PM Carney's apology to President Trump over the Ontario gov't's Reagan anti-tariff ad is an act of bended knee instead of elbows up. It undermines Canadian solidarity & reinforces Trump's bad faith negotiation tactics.
