There are three major news themes this week:
1. Ukraine, where President Joe Biden has managed to edge precariously close to World War III with a series of gaffes -- first on chemical weapons, then on sending U.S. troops into Ukraine, and then on regime change in Russia;
2. The confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, which may be in jeopardy after she stumbled in explaining her lenient sentences for child pornography offenders, and could not provide a definition of the word "woman";
3. Inflation, which continues to grow worse, as state governments pledge cash rebates for rising gas prices and Biden has no solutions to offer, other than allowing the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates slowly -- perhaps too slowly.
We'll discuss it all, with special guests:
Rabbi Shmuley Boteach -- on Ukraine and the human rights challenge
Alan Dershowitz -- on Ketanji Brown Jackson
Jessica Vaugn -- on inflation, the economy, and the ongoing culture war

Today's episode is devoted to the second anniversary of the October 7 terror attacks. It was produced before the announcement of a ceasefire deal, yet remains current & relevant.
Please listen, and #bringthemhome.

This week's portion is a beautiful poem, containing the Covenant between God and the people of Israel. But given the breaking news that Hamas may actually have agreed to release all of the Israeli hostages, I will devote my remarks to that.
One hopes it is true; if so, it makes this week's additional reading, from II Samuel 22, even more relevant: David's song of praise to the Lord for delivering him from the hand of his enemies.
"18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy,
from my foes, who were too strong for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster,
but the Lord was my support."
So much to focus on this week -- and much breaking news. A peace deal in the Middle East, perhaps? Eric Adams dropping out of the mayor's race? And a looming shutdown as Democrats push their demands beyond absurdity.
