I said in March that President Joe Biden could have been impeached for bribery. It turns out, apparently, that the FBI investigated him for bribery when he was Vice President. And this should surprise no one.

We know Biden used his political office to enrich his relatives, who in turn kicked back money to him. We know that he never resolved the obvious conflicts of interest with Hunter Biden and Burisma.
The conflicts of interest were no accident; they were intentional conflations of political power and commercial opportunity. And if the people who bribed Biden turn out to be Ukrainian, well, then...
That would mean that the entire first Trump impeachment were a cover-up to protect an ACTUAL crime worth impeaching. And the 2020 election was influenced corruptly. We deserve to know.
This is my first broadcast from the new office and studio in Washington, DC, where I'll be for a couple of years my neighborhood back in L.A. cleans up -- and as we follow the Trump administration from a little closer up than usual.

This week’s portion tells the grand story of the prophet who tried to curse people of Israel and instead ended up blessing them.
I am reminded that these portions continue to be relevant anew, as this particular reading lent the title for Israel’s recent 12 Day War against Iran, “Operation Rising Lion.”
This week's portion includes the commandment of the red heifer -- one of the classic "irrational" commandments whose fulfillment is an expression of faith. It also includes the regrettable episode in which Moses strikes the rock.
I referred to this story in a wedding speech last night. Why was Moses punished for striking the rock in Numbers, when he struck the rock without incident in Exodus -- both for the purpose of providing water to the people?
The answer is that in the interim, the Jewish people had received the Torah, which is like the marriage contract between the people of Israel and God. In a marriage, you do not resolve things by breaking boundaries, but through love.
The additional reading, from Judges Chapter 11, is the story of Jephthah (Yiftach), a man whom the leaders spurn, but to whom they must turn to save the nation. The parallels to our present political circumstances are striking.
Shabbat Shalom and Happy Fourth of July!
