Today's show will begin with a focus on antisemitism. I am going to devote the first hour to tackling the challenge posed by Kanye West & Co., answering your questions and dealing with the scourge that haunts our politics, left and right.
We'll then turn to the week ahead: the fallout over the Hunter Biden laptop, the Georgia Senate runoff, the House Republican leadership elections, and more, including the prospects for the 2024 Republican presidential field.

Special guests: Breitbart News editors Emma-Jo Morris and Allum Bokhari.

The South African government accused Israel of genocide on the basis of a story about Amalek in the Book of Samuel, in which King Saul was commanded to wipe out the entire evil Amalekite nation.
Because Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quoted this week's portion -- "Remember what Amalek did to you" (25:17), the South African government claimed he was commanding soldiers to commit genocide.
It was an absurd and malevolent misreading of the Bible and of Jewish tradition. The commandment, as observed by Jews today, is to remember the evil of Amalek and fight ...
